Interconnected mental health symptoms: Network analysis of depression, anxiety, stress, and burnout among psychiatric nurses in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic
Burnout, depression, anxiety, and stress are relatively common among psychiatric nurses in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. While anxiety was the most prevalent, stress emerged as the core symptom, and depression as an important bridging node. Interventions targeting the core symptoms and bridging nodes may improve the mental health of psychiatric nurses
Prevalence and associated factors of depression, anxiety and stress among clinical therapists in China in the context of early Covid-19 pandemic
During the COVID-19 pandemic, depression, anxiety and stress were relatively common among clinical therapists in China. Regular physical activity and good sleep were important protective factors against emotional problems. Therefore, encouraging regular physical activity and actively addressing clinical therapists' sleep problems is beneficial to improving the ability to cope with negative emotions. The COVID-19 epidemic significantly increased a…
Bridging the intergenerational gap: Boosting recycling behavior and policy support through eliciting concerns for future others
Pro-environmental behavior, including waste sorting and recycling, involves a combination of future-oriented (futureness) and other-oriented (otherness) attributes. Inspired by the perspective of intergenerational choice, this work explores whether eliciting concerns for future others could increase public support for recycling policy and recycling behavior. Study 1 consisted of an online random controlled trial and a laboratory experiment. In St…
Social identity development in transnational marriages of international students in China
In recent years, the increasing trend of transnational marriages between international students in China and Chinese nationals has provided unique insights into Chinese society. This paper explores how these unions contribute to the development of social identities. Data was collected through participant observation and in-depth interviews with 15 heterosexual couples. Analysis of the findings supported the idea that these marriages foster a deep…
Ruling the Periphery: Pakistan state ruling practices in Lower Dir
This article examines Pakistan State's ruling practices in Lower Dir, a peripheral region. It argues that this peripheral region was ruled by a colonial logic of governmentality. Through a 'thick' ethnography of Lower Dir, I documented the militarized and fragmented state practices that Tsing refers to as the 'sticky materiality of practical encounters' of the local people with the state apparatuses. The study collected data through anthropologic…

Characteristics and correlation of gray matter volume and somatic symptoms in adolescent patients with depressive disorder
Somatic symptoms of adolescent depressive disorder are associated with alexithymia; moreover, somatic symptoms and alexithymia in adolescent patients with depressive disorders are correlated with GMV changes in different brain regions
Awareness of mpox-related knowledge among men who have sex with men in China
Mpox-related knowledge is fairly low among men who have sex with men in China. China needs to spread knowledge to the public through multiple channels, especially in key populations (men who have sex with men, HIV-infected, etc.), and take preventive measures to effectively avoid outbreaks of mpox
Knowledge and vaccination acceptance toward the human monkeypox among men who have sex with men in China
Background: MSM individuals are at high risk of monkeypox infection, and judicious use of vaccines can control the outbreak. Therefore, we conducted a national cross-sectional survey to assess the vaccination willingness, associated factors, and related knowledges of monkeypox among MSM individuals in China. Methods: This anonymous cross-sectional study was conducted in China from July 1 to July 3, 2022, and electronic questionnaires were sent on…
What we bet on is not only tangible money, but also good mood
A surprisingly large number of lottery prizes go unclaimed every year. This leads us to suspect that what people bet on is not only money, but also good mood. We conducted three studies to explain, from an emotional perspective, why people play lottery games. We first conducted two survey studies to assess mood state reported by online (Study 1a) and offline lottery buyers (Study 1b) at different stages of lottery play. The results revealed that …
Alcohol Use and Misuse Among Chinese Psychiatrists During the Early Covid-19 Pandemic
During the COVID-19 pandemic, alcohol use and misuse among Chinese psychiatrists declined. While males were more likely to misuse alcohol, they were also more likely to have reduced their intake. Age, location, and lifestyle factors also predicted alcohol use and misuse. Further examination of specific factors that reduced alcohol use and misuse may help guide public health efforts to sustain the lower rates beyond the pandemic
Mechanisms of Xiong-Pi-Fang in treating coronary heart disease associated with depression: A systematic pharmacology strategy and in vivo pharmacological validation
Effects of Chronic Alcohol Use Disorder on the Visual Tilt Illusion
Rationale: Among the serious consequences of alcohol use disorder (AUD) is the reduced ability to process visual information. It is also generally agreed that AUD tends to occur with disturbed excitation-inhibition (EI) balance in the central nervous system. Thus, a specific visual behavioral probe could directly qualify the EI dysfunction in patients with AUD. The tilt illusion (TI) is a paradigmatic example of contextual influences on perceptio…

Cynomorium songaricum Rupr demonstrates phytoestrogenic or phytoandrogenic like activities that attenuates benign prostatic hyperplasia via regulating steroid 5-α-reductase
Freedom From Fear and Want’ and Our Psychological Response to Environmental Changes
Freedom from fear and freedom from want are two of the fundamental freedoms and likely related to changes in the environment. It has usually been assumed that our subjective feelings should change accordingly with changes in the objective environment. However, two counterintuitive effects reviewed in this article imply a rather complex psychological mechanism behind how people respond to environmental changes and strive for the freedom from fear …
Eucommia ulmoides Oliv: Ethnopharmacology, phytochemistry and pharmacology of an important traditional Chinese medicine
Pedagogical use of two languages in a Chinese elementary school
This paper provides a snapshot of the manner in which English as a foreign language is taught in an elementary school in Helan County, China, in the nation's first decade of sweeping nation-wide educational reforms where English was first introduced as an official subject in 2001 and then as a compulsory subject in 2004. To cope with large classes and a challenging and new syllabus, with conflicting directives from the top on how to teach, the el…
