The relationship between vision status and its influencing factors among primary and secondary school students
The prevalence rate of myopia among primary and secondary school students in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region is lower than the national average, and its prevalence is related to lifestyle behaviors, physical activity level, and academic stress. The impact of lifestyle behaviors on vision status is controlled by physical activity level and academic stress. A strategy of coordinated education involving families, schools, and communities should be imp…

A quantitative study on Chinese international students’ support mechanisms to address alienation caused by Covid-19 stigma encounters in the United States
In this study, Chinese international students (N = 231) from multiple U.S. universities completed an online survey from 2021 to 2022. The data was examined by structural equation modeling to analyze the relationship between Chinese students’ stigma encounters and their feelings of alienation during the COVID-19 pandemic. Support mechanisms linking stigma encounters and alienation were also examined, including collective face concerns, perceived s…
Automatic Coding Mechanisms for Open-Ended Questions in Journalism Surveys
Answers from open-ended questions are a valuable part of journalism surveys. However, due to the expense and difficulties involved in manual coding, the current situation, in which open-ended questions are used and analyzed in large-scale web surveys, is not satisfactory. This article reviews the types, coding tasks, and automatic coding techniques of open-ended questions. We propose a five-step procedure on how to analyze open-ended questions th…

Can People Use Party Cues to Assess Policymaker Positions? Ecological Rationality and Political Heuristics
Scholars disagree about the ability of people to use heuristics to make political judgments, with some arguing that heuristics are easy-to-use pieces of information and others arguing that applying heuristics may require some degree of political expertise. We argue that these debates have been somewhat intractable because most prior work has not considered the ecological rationality of political judgments—that is, the potential for cues to yield …
Fact-checking as a deterrent? A conceptual replication of the influence of fact-checking on the sharing of misinformation by political elites
In a field experiment conducted during the 2012 general elections in the U.S., Nyhan and Reifler found that the threat of fact-checking deterred state legislators from making false or misleading statements. The current study presents a conceptual replication and extension of this influential study by utilizing a similar treatment that leverages a recent partnership between local media outlets and fact-checking organizations, assessing the effects…
Chinese International Students’ Face Concerns, Self-Stigma, Linguistic Factors, and Help-Seeking Intentions for Mental Health
Chinese international students (CIS) in American universities encounter serious mental health issues, and they also underutilize campus mental health care services. The current study examined several factors which result in this phenomenon, such as Chinese face concerns, self-stigma of seeking help for mental health services, as well as English proficiency and language discrimination. A survey with 433 CIS in multiple U.S. universities was conduc…
Detecting Sentiment toward Emerging Infectious Diseases on Social Media
Despite the popularity and efficiency of dictionary-based sentiment analysis (DSA) for public health research, limited empirical evidence has been produced about the validity of DSA and potential harms to the validity of DSA. A random sample of a second-hand Ebola tweet dataset was used to evaluate the validity of DSA compared to the manual coding approach and examine the influences of textual features on the validity of DSA. The results revealed…
Flooding the Zone
Much scholarly attention has been paid to the effects of misinformation on beliefs and attitudes, but rarely have studies investigated potential downstream effects of misinformation exposure on belief judgments involving subsequent factual statements. Drawing from work on anchoring-and-adjustment and defensive reasoning, this study examines how exposure to initial falsehoods that vary in terms of their plausibility shapes subsequent belief judgme…
