The Moderating Role of Parent–Grandparent Co-Parenting in Parental Stress and Mental Health
In China, parent–grandparent co-parenting plays a key role in family dynamics. This study examined whether the parent–grandparent co-parenting relationship moderates associations between parental stress (parenting expectations stress and work-related stress) and mental health outcomes (well-being, anxiety, and depression). Data were collected from 306 Chinese parents ( M age = 34.90 years, SD = 5.91). Path analysis revealed that co-parenting rela…

Health resilience of green buildings in a Dense City: Evidence from Covid-19 infections in Hong Kong
This study examines whether green buildings contribute to health resilience during public health crises in a dense city. Utilizing a dataset of 1552 public housing blocks in Hong Kong from January 2020 to December 2022, our findings suggest that residents living in green buildings are associated with significantly lower infection rates compared to those in non-green buildings. This effect is most pronounced during Hong Kong's fifth wave of the CO…

Domain-General and Domain-Specific Antecedents of Pre-Algebraic Knowledge: Focusing on English-Language Learners With Word-Problem Difficulty
This study investigated the extent to which domain-general and domain-specific antecedents contributed to pre-algebra’s initial level and growth rate among students who experience word-problem difficulty (WPD). We examined if such a profile differs for English-language learners (ELLs; n = 75) and non-ELLs ( n = 55) with WPD. We assessed 130 U.S. students at the beginning of Grade 3, end of Grade 3, and middle of Grade 4. The latent growth curve a…
Associations between overprotective parenting style and academic anxiety among Chinese high school students
The findings of this study indicate that overprotective parenting style increases the risk of academic anxiety among Chinese high school students. However, this effect is partially mediated by students' self-concept and positive coping style. Therefore, schools and educational policymakers should consider the interrelationships and interactions when designing intervention strategies for adolescents' academic anxiety and psychological disorders. T…

Early evidence of naked barley in western Tibet: Cereal cultivation at extreme altitude along the upper Sutlej River, c. 3500 BP
Despite being almost 4000m above sea level, cereal crops have been grown in the Ngari Prefecture on the Tibetan Plateau for thousands of years. Where and when domestic crop species adapted to high-altitude growing conditions is a matter of ongoing debate. Here, the authors present a new radiocarbon date from the Gepa serul cemetery, providing the earliest evidence of naked six-rowed barley in Tibet (c. 3500 BP). Evaluating the available evidence …

Exploring the Effect of Team-Environment Fit in the Relationship Between Team Personality, Job Satisfaction, and Performance
This study explores whether team-organization fit (T-O fit) and team-job fit (T-J fit) play a mediating role between team personality, team job satisfaction, and team performance. Conscientiousness and openness to experience are common antecedents of team personality. Additionally, T-O fit and T-J fit are derived from person-environment fit theory, which is used to discuss the interaction between team members and the environment that affects beha…

Cultural inclusion was related to corporate total factor productivity, aiming to investigate whether the cultural inclusion affects corporate sustainability. The findings showed uneven distribution of cultural inclusion in various areas of China, contributing to the unbalanced sustainable development of firms in diff…
Association between psychological capital and depressive symptoms during Covid-19: The mediating role of perceived social support and the moderating effect of employment pressure
Introduction The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic affects individuals' mental health that can result in fear of getting COVID-19 infection and depression. Prior research has demonstrated that both psychological capital and perceived social support are related to the severity of depression. Yet no study explored the direction of associations between these factors. This undermines the validity of psychological capital as a basis for hea…

Improved mapping and understanding of land system states for achieving land degradation neutrality using remote sensing surface endmembers—temperature space: A case‐study in Minqin, China
The identification and understanding of land system states are critical for achieving land degradation neutrality (LDN). However, present conventional approaches can hardly generate a state space with both complex linear and abrupt shift relationships. Therefore, with the remote sensing surface endmembers—temperature space, this study developed a framework to identify, map and understand land system states and their associated trajectories based …
Exploring academic and cognitive skills impacting retention and acquisition of word-problem knowledge gained during or after intervention
In the present study, we investigated the impact of a word-problem intervention in retention and acquisition of knowledge after the intervention ended. We based analyses upon Grade 4 students experiencing mathematics difficulty (average age at pretest = 8.77) who received one of two variants of a word-problem intervention (with [n = 111] vs. without [n = 110] embedded pre-algebraic reasoning instruction) and students within a business-as-usual co…
