  • Near or Far, Facts or Feelings? The Psychology of Influencer Messaging in Destination Marketing

    Open Access•Xinru Kong, Zhigang Chen et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of China Tourism Research•2026

    With the growing prominence of travel influencers in destination marketing, it has become essential to understand how their content shapes tourists’ decision-making. Guided by construal level theory, this study investigates how influencer message appeal (informational vs. emotional) interacts with temporal distance (near vs. distant) to affect tourists’ visit intention. Across three experimental studies, the findings show a clear construal fit ef…

  • Dynamic symptom networks in etomidate use disorder: A cross-lagged panel network analysis of craving, compulsive drug seeking, and cognitive control

    Open Access•Juan Le, Ying Tang et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2026

    Background: Etomidate abuse has emerged as a novel psychoactive-substance threat in China, yet the symptom architecture and temporal dynamics of etomidate use disorder (EUD) remain poorly characterized. This study aims to elucidate the static and dynamic interactions among craving, compulsive drug seeking and cognitive-control deficits in individuals with EUD through cross-sectional and longitudinal network analyses. Methods: From June 2023 to De…

  • Nostalgia and enchantment: Creating a night tourism image in the Great Tang Sleepless City

    Yougen Jiang, Qiuju Luo et al.•ARTICLE•Tourism Recreation Research•2026•References: 54

    Night-time destinations increasingly rely on digital spectacle, yet a clear model of how technology and place-based narratives fuse into a marketable place image remains elusive. Adopting a culture – technology coupling lens, this single-case study traces the co-evolution of nostalgia and enchantment in Xi’an’s Great Tang Sleepless City, a large, government-led heritage nightscape, and triangulates evidence from Weibo and TikTok posts, space synt…

  • The analysis of multidimensional poverty reduction effects of dual financial participation: Evidence from rural household in China

    Open Access•Qianling Wang, Zhigang Chen et al.•ARTICLE•Humanities and Social Sciences…•2025

    This study examines the impact of formal and informal financial participation on the multidimensional poverty status of rural households in China. Using panel data from the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) covering the period 2014–2020, we construct a multidimensional poverty index based on the Alkire–Foster method and conduct empirical analyses employing panel Logit and dynamic Probit models. The results indicate that dual financial participati…

  • From informality to influence: Nonlinear disturbances and institutional modulation in China's urban land supply

    Open Access•Xin Zhang, Zhang Xin et al.•ARTICLE•Land Use Policy•2025•Cited by: 1•References: 56

    Shadow land markets are widespread in developing countries but remain insufficiently understood in terms of their behavioral and institutional impacts on formal land systems. Existing studies often emphasize structural constraints or macro-level distortions, overlooking how informal land activities generate institutional signals that reshape the expectations and actions of both developers and governments. Moreover, few studies have examined the n…

  • Urban expansion and the urban–rural income gap: Empirical evidence from China

    Open Access•Sujuan Zhong, Mingshu Wang et al.•ARTICLE•Cities•2022•Cited by: 17•References: 107

    Developing countries tend to exhibit evident urban–rural income divergence as urban areas rapidly expand into adjoining land. However, Western-centric urban theories and studies of spatial inequality have not paid sufficient attention to the connection between income divergence and urban expansion. This paper employed a panel quantile regression model to investigate this relationship in 220 prefecture-level Chinese cities in 2006–2014. To identif…

  • Can China’s Environmental Regulations Effectively Reduce Pollution Emissions

    Open Access•Xi Chen, Zhigang Chen et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2021

    Based on the provincial panel data of China during 2006-2017, this study uses the panel smooth transition (PSTR) model to study the dynamic transformation mechanism of pollution emission under environmental regulation. We focus on technological progress, economic growth, and foreign direct investment (FDI) as threshold variables, and analyses the non-linear effects of environmental regulation on pollution emissions under those threshold variables…

  • The effect of tourists’ autobiographical memory on revisit intention: Does nostalgia promote revisiting

    Xingtai Zhang, Zhigang Chen et al.•ARTICLE•Asia Pacific Journal of Tourism…•2020•Cited by: 8•References: 11

    The phenomenon of tourist revisiting has attracted attention because of its economic benefits to tourist destinations. Under the guidance of the Stimuli–Organism–Response framework, this research considers travel photographs as stimuli, the relationships between autobiographical memory, place attachment and positive emotions as internal processes of the organism, and revisit intention as a behavioral response. Travel photographs had a significant…

  • Embeddedness and migrant tourism entrepreneurs: A Polanyian perspective

    Open Access•Xiaobo Su, Zhigang Chen•ARTICLE•Environment and Planning A…•2017•Cited by: 9•References: 37

    Tourism embodies flows of tourists, capital and information, as well as migration, including migrants who operate businesses. How do migrant entrepreneurs negotiate social ties and economic activities in their destinations? To answer this question, the paper draws on Polanyi's work on embeddedness to explore migrant tourism entrepreneurs (MTEs) and their modes of integration in the practice of social and economic life. We argue that MTEs are situ…
