    Weiwen Chen, Chih-Wen Wu et al.ARTICLEFamilies Relationships and…2019Cited by: 2References: 5

    This study investigated variance in the structure, functions and implications of young adults’ dual filial piety beliefs in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan using the dual filial piety model (DFPM). A total of 879 Chinese college students participated in the study, including 424 students in Hong Kong, 155 in Macau and 300 in Taiwan.

  • The market dynamics of socially embedded trading

    Open AccessKenneth A Frank, Yun-Jia Lo et al.ARTICLERationality and Society2019References: 50

    Social embeddedness has provided a compelling challenge to neoclassical descriptions of markets. Nevertheless, without a corresponding description of the micro-social forces that counter embeddedness, the description of embeddedness is essentially static, and does not integrate the dual forces of embeddedness and markets. In this study, we identify a sociological force counter to embeddedness residing in third parties whose presence may interrupt…

  • The limits of poverty reduction in support of climate change adaptation

    Open AccessDonald R Nelson, Maria Carmen Lemos et al.ARTICLEEnvironmental Research Letters2016

    The relationship between poverty and climate change vulnerability is complex and though not commensurate, the distinctions between the two are often blurred. There is widespread recognition of the need to better understand poverty-vulnerability dynamics in order to improve risk management and poverty reduction investments. This is challenging due to the latent nature of adaptive capacities, frequent lack of baseline data, and the need for high-re…

  • Linking development to climate adaptation

    Open AccessMaria Carmen Lemos, Yun-Jia Lo et al.ARTICLEGlobal Environmental Change2016Cited by: 27References: 15

    To respond to climate impact, poor agricultural households in less developed regions rely on different types of assets that define their overall adaptive capacity (AC). However not all assets build capacity equally. In this study we argue that building AC requires a combination of interventions that address not only climate-related risks (specific capacity) but also the structural deficits (e.g., lack of income, education, health, political power…

  • Agricultural Advisors as Climate Information Intermediaries

    Tonya Haigh, Lois Wright Morton et al.ARTICLEWeather, Climate, and Society2015

    Although agricultural production faces chronic stress associated with extreme precipitation events, high temperatures, drought, and shifts in climate conditions, adoption of climate information into agricultural decision making has been relatively limited. Agricultural advisors have been shown to play important roles as information intermediaries between scientists and farmers, brokering, translating, and adding value to agronomic and economic in…

  • Agricultural Advisors

    Linda S Prokopy, Tonya Haigh et al.ARTICLEWeather, Climate, and Society2013

    As the climate in the midwestern United States becomes increasingly variable because of global climate change, it is critical to provide tools to the agricultural community to ensure adaptability and profitability of agricultural cropping systems. When used by farmers and their advisors, agricultural decision support tools can reduce uncertainty and risks in the planning, operation, and management decisions of the farm enterprise. Agricultural ad…
