Risk perception and citizens’ policy compliance in the Covid-19 pandemic crisis
Province of Origin, Decision‐Making Bias, and Responses to Bureaucratic Versus Algorithmic Decision‐Making
As algorithmic decision‐making (ADM) becomes prevalent in certain public sectors, its interaction with traditional bureaucratic decision‐making (BDM) evolves, especially in contexts shaped by regional identities and decision‐making biases. To explore these dynamics, we conducted two survey experiments within traffic enforcement scenarios, involving 4816 participants across multiple provinces. Results indicate that non‐native residents perceived A…
Artificial intelligence, types of decisions, and street-level bureaucrats: Evidence from a survey experiment
Drawing on the logic of Simon’s decision-making theory, this study compares the effects of AI versus humans on discretion, client meaningfulness, and willingness-to-implement, and examines the moderating role of different types of decisions on those relationships. The findings show that AI usage has a negative effect on perceived discretion and a positive effect on willingness-to-implement. Conversely, non-programmed decisions tend to have a posi…
Acculturation of rural–urban migrants in China: Strategies and determinants
Rural–urban migration and urban identity differentiation in China
Previous studies on the social identity of rural-urban migrants in China have often neglected the fact that migration is highly selective. Consequently, the findings generally suffer from survival bias. To overcome this problem, we construct an analytical framework to differentiate six subgroups: rural residents with no migration experience, returned migrants, rural-urban migrants, new urban residents through elite approaches, new urban residents…
What type of algorithm is perceived as fairer and more acceptable? A comparative analysis of rule-driven versus data-driven algorithmic decision-making in public affairs
The strength of culture: Acculturation and urban-settlement intention of rural migrants in China
Flowing sense of place: Perceptions of host city impacting on city attachment of rural-urban migrants in China
Psychological Distress in Urbanizing China: How Does Local Government Effectiveness Matter
Despite growing literature identifying key individual, family, community, and environmental factors as causes for mental disorders during the process of urbanization, the role played by local government has not been taken into account. In this article, we investigate how the effectiveness of local government affects residents' levels of psychological distress in areas of China undergoing urbanization. We measure the effectiveness of local governm…
Sectoral work experience of provincial leaders and local public expenditure in China
How the sectoral work experience of local leaders affects local public expenditure is underexplored. Using a unique panel dataset on the work experience of secretaries of the provincial party committee (SPPCs) and governors of provinces (GPs) in China, this study empirically analyses how the work experience of provincial leaders in the agricultural sector affects agricultural public expenditure. The results show that the work experience of SPPCs …
Housing and identity expression among in‐situ urbanised rural residents in China
Housing is an important source of identity expression, but the influence of different housing attributes remains underexplored. Drawing on the ‘4Cs theory of housing’ (housing cost, housing conditions, housing consistency and housing context), this study established an analytical framework linking housing to in‐situ urbanised rural residents′ identity expression in China. Using data from the 2018 Urbanization and Quality of Life Survey, the resul…
Welfare migration or migrant selection? Social insurance participation and rural migrants’ intentions to seek permanent urban settlement in China
The welfare system can be a crucial factor in the urban settlement of rural migrants, but its effects are difficult to determine because to do so one must distinguish the effect of welfare entitlement from the effect of ‘migrant selectivity bias’, which widely exists in cities in developing countries. Using survey data from 15 Chinese cities, this study examines the ways in which social insurance – the most critical social welfare package in Chin…
Falling Into the Second-Generation Decline? Evidence From the Intergenerational Differences in Social Identity of Rural–Urban Migrants in China
Previous studies have not adequately articulated the intergenerational differences in social identity of rural–urban migrants in China. Using survey data from Wuhan, China, the study tests three hypotheses on intergenerational differences in rural–urban migrants’ social identity based on first-generation and new-generation migrants’ attitudes toward rural and urban society. Results suggest that first-generation migrants are more likely to view th…
Risk Perception and Depression in Public Health Crises: Evidence from the Covid-19 Crisis in China
Background: Scant attention has been paid to how risk perceptions of public health crises may affect people's mental health. Aims : The aims of this study are to (1) construct a conceptual framework for risk perception and depression of people in public health crises, (2) examine how the mental health of people in the crisis of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is affected by risk perception and its associated factors, including distance percep…
An ecological investigation of resilience among rural‐urban migrant adolescents of low socioeconomic status families in China
The present study aims to explore the mechanism of resilience among rural-urban migrant adolescents of low socioeconomic status (SES) families in China with the ecological system perspective. Selecting 946 rural-urban migrant adolescents from the China Education Panel Survey, we used latent class analyses to distinguish different levels of resilience among migrant adolescents from low-SES families, and logistic regressions to identify factors ass…
Perceptions of Household Income and Subjective Well-Being of Children in China
Quality matters: Housing and the mental health of rural migrants in urban China
This study goes beyond housing ownership and investigates how housing size, quality, and location affect the mental health of rural migrants in urban China. By using the RUMiC data, the results show that in addition to housing ownership, living space and housing quality are also significantly associated with the mental health of rural migrants. Moreover, with an increase in living space, the mental health of rural migrants who live in private ren…
Beyond homeownership: Housing conditions, housing support and rural migrant urban settlement intentions in China
The effect of health on urban-settlement intention of rural-urban migrants in China
Previous studies have not paid enough attention to the effect of health on urban-settlement intention of rural-urban migrants in China. Using survey data from the Rural Urban Migration in China project, this article examines how self-rated physical and mental health influence rural-urban migrants' intention to settle down in cities. First, the results show that both self-rated physical and mental health are significant factors influencing the mig…
The urban integration of migrant workers in China: An assimilation–integration pattern
sThe urban integration pattern of migrant workers in China has not been fully articulated. This paper seeks to work out this issue by using the questionnaire survey data from Wuhan, China. Based on social integration theories on international migrants, this paper developed four hypotheses on the urban integration pattern of migrant workers in China, including assimilation, integration, separation, and marginalisation, and examined the four hypoth…
