  • Chinese university students’ intention to study abroad in times of Covid-19

    Open AccessTianyu Yang, Wei Bao et al.ARTICLEHigher Education2024

    The COVID-19 pandemic has affected higher education students in many ways, and it seems to also have influences students’ willingness to study abroad. To date, much is still unclear about the exact effects of COVID-19 on Chinese students’ intentions to study abroad and whether that differs for different types of students. This is problematic, as for students, international study experience is of great importance for their further careers, while f…

  • Geography education improves spatial ability

    Weihua Dong, Qin Ying et al.ARTICLECartography and Geographic…2023Cited by: 2References: 3

    Previous behavior experimental studies indicate that geography education facilitates the development of students’ spatial ability. However, it is unclear how geography education shapes student brain activity and promotes spatial ability. In this article, we proposed a neuroscience-based method to explore the relationship between geography education and spatial ability. We conducted a behavioral experiment with 63 participants and an fMRI experime…

  • Association of intestinal microbiota markers and dietary pattern in Chinese patients with type 2 diabetes

    Open AccessGuanjun Wang, Quanjun Lyu et al.ARTICLEFrontiers in Public Health2022

    Studies on intestinal microbiota in Chinese type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients are scarce and correlation studies with dietary intake are lacking. The case-control study included 150 participants (74 T2DM patients and 76 controls) and microbiome analysis was performed using 16S rDNA sequencing. Principal component analysis was used to determine dietary patterns and correlation analysis was used to evaluate the associations between microbiot…

  • Does Culture Shape Our Spatial Ability? An Investigation Based on Eye Tracking

    Open AccessYuyang Tian, Tianyu Yang et al.ARTICLEISPRS International Journal of…2022

    Culture affects people’s spatial memory, mental representations, and spatial reference frameworks. People with different cultural backgrounds show different degrees of spatial ability. However, the current research does not reveal the shaping of spatial ability by culture from the perspective of visual cognition. In this study, we used eye tracking and designed mental rotation, spatial visualization, spatial orientation, and spatial correlation t…

  • Wayfinding Behavior and Spatial Knowledge Acquisition

    Weihua Dong, Tiantian Qin et al.ARTICLEAnnals of the American…2022Cited by: 4References: 65

    Finding one’s way is a fundamental daily activity and has been widely studied in the field of geospatial cognition. Immersive virtual reality (iVR) techniques provide new approaches for investigating wayfinding behavior and spatial knowledge acquisition. It is currently unclear, however, how wayfinding behavior and spatial knowledge acquisition in iVR differ from those in real-world environments (REs). We conducted an RE wayfinding experiment wit…

  • Loving mother vs. controlling mother

    Hailing Yu, Tianyu Yang et al.ARTICLESocial Semiotics2020References: 7

    The article explores the applicability of the system of attitude and reading positions to filmic discourse analysis. The case study focuses on the short film Bao. Analysis demonstrates how visual attitude, together with focalisation and music, is used to direct the viewer to align with the mother character. Such a naturalised reading is then embraced, challenged, or rejected by actual viewers whose reviews of Bao on IMDb and Douban are investigat…
