Living Funerals as Leisure-Driven Empowerment in End-of-Life Care
This study provides the first quantitative empirical examination of living funerals—pre-mortem farewell ceremonies—as a leisure phenomenon within a collectivist cultural context. Grounded in theories of rites of passage, liminality and communitas, interaction ritual chains, and festivity, a cross-sectional survey (N = 165) of Taiwanese adults identified a culturally contextualized three-factor structure—Family Companionship, Life Planning, and Ri…
Relationship between Psychological and Academic Entitlements and Maladaptive Outcomes of Undergraduates
Few studies have examined the mechanisms linking psychological (PE) and academic entitlement (AE) to mental health. This study investigated 294 non-Western undergraduates to analyze the relationships among PE, AE, and psychological health, and their potential mechanisms. Students with higher AE reported greater anxiety and depression, and lower emotional intelligence (EI). In contrast, those with higher PE showed greater anxiety but also higher l…
Relocating the imaginary nation through nature
This article examines the transformation of Arbor Day in postwar Taiwan, focusing on how it has been used to relocate the imaginary nation-shifting from associations with mainland China toward alignment with the island-based regime in Taiwan. Using the framework of performance politics, we analyze how Arbor Day serves as a contested arena where various social actors-ranging from the central government and local authorities to civil society-compet…
Water Infrastructure and the Imaginary of Unfinished Urban Modernity in Taiwan
This study suggests that water infrastructure is an important site to uncover “sociotechnical imaginaries” of society. Drawing on two case studies of Taipei and Kaohsiung, our analysis demonstrates how problems of water quality were conceived by Taiwanese state actors as an “unfinished” status of urban modernity. This imaginary of urban modernity has driven state actors to launch particular infrastructural improvement projects. With the aspiratio…
Heritage as city vision leverage
This paper shows how heritage can become leverage working against the pro-growth city vision. In most cases, historic preservation in urban areas can hardly combat the dominant developmentalist ideology. The heritage thus produced may exacerbate uneven development, or simply be utilised as a cultural commodity. The case of Changhua City in Taiwan, however, proves otherwise. Through its 30-year controversies concerning the railway infrastructure, …
Effects of a group music-based intervention in improving attachment and psychosocial adaptation in adolescents with parental attachment insecurity
The effects of a group music-based intervention on attachment and psychosocial adaptation in adolescents with parental attachment insecurity were examined in Taiwan. A randomized controlled trial with a pre–post and follow-up design was performed. The music group ( N = 28) attended a 40-min session twice weekly for 10 weeks. The nonmusic group ( N = 28) received health education. The groups underwent a parental attachment and psychosocial adaptat…
How to Prevent Stress in the Workplace by Emotional Regulation? The Relationship Between Compulsory Citizen Behavior, Job Engagement, and Job Performance
Based on cognitive dissonance theory, this study aims to test good soldier syndrome regarding the relationship among compulsory citizenship behavior, job engagement, emotion regulation, and job performance so as to promote sustainable Human Resource Management (HRM). The sample, which applied the purposive sampling method, comprised 89 supervisors and 304 subordinates who work from 4-star and 5-star hotels in Taiwan. The results showed that the r…
The Immediate and Long-Term Impact of Military Aircraft Noise on Hearing
We examined the immediate and long-term impacts of military aircraft noise exposure on noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) in fighter pilots and ground staff. We recruited 40 pilots, 40 ground staff, and 136 age-matched controls; all participants underwent hearing tests, including conventional pure-tone audiometry (PTA) (0.25-8.0 kHz), extended high-frequency (EHF) audiometry (9.0-18.0 kHz), and distortion-product otoacoustic emission (DPOAE) as a …
Illegal Drug Use and Risk of Hearing Loss in the United States
The use of illegal drugs may be a risk factor of hearing loss. However, very few studies with large sample size have investigated the relationship between illegal drug use and hearing loss. Therefore, to evaluate the association between illegal drug use and hearing loss, this cross-sectional population-based study collected data from the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2011. The study included 1772 participants aged 20 to 59 y…
Riverfront as a re-territorialising arena of urban governance
This paper foregrounds the riverfront as a re-territorialising arena of urban governance. Through a long-term study of the Xindian River in Taipei metropolis, Taiwan, we illustrate how the riverfront can be the key locus where the expansion of the urban frontier is manifested through and intertwines with the transformation of nature. While first interwoven with everyday activities of subsistence, Xindian River was gradually turned into the periph…
Association between Anemia and Auditory Threshold Shifts in the US Population
Existing evidence indicates that both iron deficiency anemia and sickle cell anemia have been previously associated with hearing loss. However, human data investigating the association between anemia and auditory threshold shifts at different frequencies in the adolescent, adult and elderly population are extremely limited to date. Therefore, this cross-sectional study used the dataset from the US National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey …
A Cross-Level Investigation of Team-Member Exchange on Team and Individual Job Crafting with the Moderating Effect of Regulatory Focus
Within the framework of regulatory focus theory, this study examines the issues of job crafting. This study adopts purposive sampling as a means to collect data. A total of 123 teams with 514 members were invited to participate in the survey, and 91 teams with 354 members provided valid questionnaire responses for data analysis. Mplus 7.0 was applied to conduct data analysis and verification. Data analysis demonstrates that (1) team-member exchan…
Dextromethorphan Attenuates Sensorineural Hearing Loss in an Animal Model and Population-Based Cohort Study
The effect of dextromethorphan (DXM) use in sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) has not been fully examined. We conducted an animal model and nationwide retrospective matched-cohort study to explore the association between DXM use and SNHL. Eight-week-old CBA/CaJ hearing loss was induced by a white noise 118 dB sound pressure level for 3 h. DXM (30 mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally for 5 days and boost once round window DXM socking. In popu…
The Clinical Utility of the Chen Internet Addiction Scale—Gaming Version, for Internet Gaming Disorder in the DSM-5 among Young Adults
Objectives : The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) includes the diagnostic criteria for Internet gaming disorder (IGD). This study evaluated (1) the screening, diagnostic, and prevalence-estimated cutoff points of the Chen Internet Addiction Scale-Gaming Version (CIAS-G) for IGD in the DSM-5; and (2) the differences in the CIAS-G and subscale scores among individuals with IGD, regular gamers (RGs), and o…
Relationship between the arrangement of shopping activities and consumer prepurchase perceptions of group package tours
Shopping is an indispensable part of a group package tour and an activity that substantially affects the travel experience and quality. However, few studies have focused on shopping-spot types and arrangements. This study examined the effects of shopping-spot types and arrangements in trip itineraries on consumer prepurchase perceptions. Survey data were collected from 282 outbound tourists in Taiwan. A 2 × 2 mixed factorial design was employed t…
Evaluation of the 2010 Taipei International Flora Exposition from the perceptions of host-city residents
Numerous cities have recently hosted and engaged in mega-events to pursue tourism and urban development. Although ample research has focussed on the effects of mega-events, few studies have addressed the measurement indicators of mega-event legacies. Based on the triple bottom line principle, we developed measurement indicators for mega-event legacies to assess empirically the legacy of the 2010 Taipei International Flora Exposition based on the …
Re-assembling the memorial landscape
This article argues that the memorial landscape is a dynamically composed assemblage of heterogeneous elements, and that the guided walking tour is a practical tactic through which discourses and materials might be re-assembled and thus re-signified. Guided walking tours therefore epitomise the relational rethinking of memorial landscapes, or quasi-heritage, in everyday urban life. Based on three case studies in Taipei, Taiwan, we discuss how mem…
Social Practice of a Career Guidance Project Based on the Wisdom of the Classic of Changes
The Virtue Existential Career Model (VEC) is a Chinese career development model based on the Classic of Changes. It is designed to supplement the person-environment fit paradigm of Taiwan's 12-Year Basic Education for junior high school students. We adopted an action research approach with two parts, reflection-on-action and critical-emancipatory. An easy-to-use VEC career curriculum and a career information system (Career Genesis; CG) were devel…
Effects of Horizontal Acceleration on Human Visual Acuity and Stereopsis
The effect of horizontal acceleration on human visual acuity and stereopsis is demonstrated in this study. Twenty participants (mean age 22.6 years) were enrolled in the experiment. Acceleration from two different directions was performed at the Taiwan High-Speed Rail Laboratory. Gx and Gy ( 0.1 g) were produced on an accelerating platform where the subjects stood. The visual acuity and stereopsis of the right eye were measured before and during …
Action Research Using a Chinese Career Model Based on the Wisdom of Classic of Changes and its Applications
To challenge the Taiwan Ministry of Education's (TMOE) dominant enforcement of a person-environment fit model, the Chinese Career Research Center incorporated yin-yang alternation principles from the Classic of Changes ( I Ching, Yi Jing or 易經) to develop the model of career development touching the sky yet grounded (TSG) and corresponding practice guidelines, a career website (CCN), and four career service projects. Using Lewin's (1946) cyclical…
Heritage formation and cultural governance
Heritage preservation is a field of social action filled with controversies, whose outcomes are not only determined by the power relation among social actors, but are also a product of structural tendencies. This article attempts to explain why the Bopiliao movement in Taipei changed from protesting land acquisition to making demands for preservation, and points out the emergence of a new regime of cultural governance as the structural condition …
