Does Societal Affluence Increase the Gender Gap in STEM Graduation? A Longitudinal Assessment
Recent studies cast doubt on the assumption that national gender equality widens the gender gap in preferences and choices for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) majors, as posited by the Gender-Equality Paradox (GEP). Gender-equality effects do not show up within world regions, and the effects cannot be disentangled from other factors found to be higher in “the West.” However, the Affluence Paradox, which describes larger g…

Potential applications of humanoid robotic touch for social regulation of emotion
Human-robot touch interaction plays an essential role in emotional support and human mental health support. The role of therapeutic robots such as Paro in mental support has been widely investigated. However, the impact of humanoid robotic touch on the social regulation of users’ emotions is still unknown. Therefore, a mixed experiment was conducted with the type of touch (grip versus contact) as the between-subjects factor and the presence of to…
A 29‐Year (1994–2023) Bibliometrics Analysis of Usage of the Gamification in History Education
Over the past two decades, gamification has emerged as a significant pedagogical approach in history education, attracting the attention of historians. This bibliometric study analyses 249 papers from 1994 to 2023, employing scientometric methods to identify trends, key authors, nations, institutions and highly cited documents. Data were processed using Microsoft Excel, Bibliometrix, Publish or Perish (PoP), and VOSviewer. Findings reveal a stead…

The Return on Education and the Gender Wage Gap in China
Much of the existing research on gender wage gaps in China is focused on a singular perspective, such as education, sector, industry, and urban–rural difference. This paper, however, discusses both returns to education and gender wage gaps from a sector perspective. Using Urban Household Survey of 2004 and 2013, this paper presents that the classic human capital theory cannot fully explain the gender wage gap and provides empirical research that …
Environmental pollution and human fertility
The study complements existing evidence that exposure to PM2.5 can lead to decreased success rates of pregnancy and live births, as well as significantly impact the outcomes of ART. Future research should focus on developing strategies to mitigate the adverse effects of environmental pollution on ART success rates

The widening gender wage gap in the gig economy in China
The gig economy, fundamentally relying on the digital economy, is often celebrated for its potential to expand employment opportunities and close gender wage gaps. However, research on its gender impacts in China, the largest developing country with a rapidly expanding gig sector, is notably lacking. Employing discrimination theory, the findings challenge the prevailing optimistic view on the role of the gig economy. Utilising the China Labour Dy…

The effect of short-form video addiction on users’ attention
Short-form videos are popular worldwide as a thriving form of entertainment. Its fragmentation pattern, which presents users with intensive and engaging information, might lead to addiction and adverse effects. This study aims to investigate the effect of addiction to short-form videos on users’ attention, including attention while watching videos and the ability of attentional concentration after watching time. Users addicted or non-addicted to …
Multisensory integration effect of humanoid robot appearance and voice on users’ affective preference and visual attention
Appearance and voice are essential factors impacting users’ affective preferences for humanoid robots. However, little is known about how the appearance and voice of humanoid robots jointly influence users’ affective preferences and visual attention. We conducted a mixed-design eye-tracking experiment to examine the multisensory integration effect of humanoid robot appearances and voices on users’ affective preferences and visual attention. The r…

The growth impact of infrastructure capital investment
To verify the impact mechanism between infrastructure capital investment and regional economic growth in China, this study first estimates production capital stocks of the infrastructure by Perpetual Inventory Method (PIM) based on a balanced panel dataset for 31 Chinese provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities covering 1993–2017, then analyses the important mediating role of regional innovation capacity in the relationship between infras…
The wage structure and gap between public and private sectors
The idea that the wage gap (W.G.) between the public sector (P.U.S.) and private sectors (P.R.S.) has widened is a point of contention among scholars, but to date, there has been no systematic discussion of changes in the W.G. and their causes in China. This article combines data from China's Urban Household Survey (U.H.S.) for 2004, 2008 and 2013 to examine changes in betweensector W.G.s and identify the causal factors by wage decomposition meth…

Evaluating users’ preference for the appearance of humanoid robots via event-related potentials and spectral perturbations
Even though humanoid robots are being applied to diverse areas, the formation of users’ preference for the appearance of humanoid robots remains unknown. The present study investigated users’ neural dynamics underlying preference formation to evaluate users’ preference for the appearance of humanoid robots. EEG signals were recorded in a preference categorisation task, and neural dynamics were analysed via event-related potentials and time–freque…
The interindustry wage differentials by sector in China
Although how union density affects interindustry wage differentials has long been discussed, there is a paucity of empirical research relevant to China. The trade-union system in China has been criticized for a long time because the Chinese Communist Party can influence union density and indirectly affect interindustry wage differentials through non-market mechanisms, such as administrative monopolies. This study explores the impact of union dens…
Effects of robot gaze and voice human-likeness on users’ subjective perception, visual attention, and cerebral activity in voice conversations
Effects of mobile news interface design features on users’ gaze behaviours and behavioural performance
The increasing growth in the use of mobile news apps has raised questions on how their interface design features affect users’ gaze behaviours and behavioural performance. To tackle these issues, two experiments (visual browse and search tasks) were designed to investigate the impact of interface design features (colour and layout) on users’ gaze behaviours (fixation count, fixation time ratio and first fixation duration) and behavioural performa…
Systematic effective modeling and geospatial information framework for environmental issues in urban areas
A review of the ethnopharmacology, phytochemistry, pharmacology, and quality control of Scutellaria barbata D. Don
Destination China
Based on a survey of 355 international students studying at seven universities in Chengdu, China, this article analyses the reasons for their choosing to study in China. The main methods employed are factor analysis and associated nonparametric tests. Results reveal that the quality of Chinese education and Chinese specialities are the most important reasons. In addition, personal referral sources, tuition and living costs, bilateral relations be…
