  • Inhibition or Facilitation? The Double‐Edged Sword Effect of Stress on Preschool Teachers' Occupational Well‐Being

    Open Access•Wenwen Sun, Guangyin Li et al.•ARTICLE•Psychology in the Schools•2026

    Although stress is an important predictor of preschool teachers' occupational well‐being, prior research mainly emphasized the unilateral impact of stress and neglected the synergistic effects of different stress types. In addition, the potential path mechanisms of how stress influences preschool teachers' occupational well‐being have not been analyzed comprehensively. To fill these gaps, based on the job demands‐resources (JD‐R) theory, this stu…

  • Beyond the neighborhood

    Open Access•Shi-Ting Huang, Peiling Zhou•ARTICLE•Urban Studies•2026

    The integration of new-generation migrant children is pivotal for urban equity, particularly in China, where structural exclusions have evolved into subtler forms of socio-spatial segmentation. While existing research has examined institutional and cultural barriers, less attention has been paid to how children themselves actively engage with urban environments to pursue integration. This study addresses this gap by asking: How do migrant childre…

  • We are the cavalry, on the way to the rescue’

    Qiyang Liu, Peiling Zhou•ARTICLE•Mobilities•2026•References: 44

    The Covid-19 pandemic reshaped urban mobility, exposing the precarity of essential services and delivery workers’ paradoxical roles. This qualitative study investigates how delivery workers in China navigated stringent lockdowns, specifically exploring the complex interplay between their enforced mobility and their construction of masculine identities. We inductively conceptualise the Mobility-masculinity Nexus, demonstrating how mobility serves …

    Open Access•Yunxia Liu, Peiling Zhou et al.•ARTICLE•Applied Geography•2025

  • How do personal resources and homeroom teacher job demands influence teachers’ professional identity? A perspective based on the job demands‐resources model

    Open Access•Peiling Zhou, Pei-Ling Zhou et al.•ARTICLE•Psychology in the Schools•2024

    Professional identity is essential for a qualified teacher; however, the imbalance between job resources and demands is a serious impediment to promoting teachers’ professional identity. Given that personal job resources (i.e., teachers’ socioemotional competence and psychological capital) and challenging job demands (homeroom/non‐homeroom teachers) are distinctive—but understudied—job characteristics, this study examines their role in fostering …

  • Parenthood, spatial temporal environmental exposure, and leisure-time physical activity participation

    Open Access•Peiling Zhou, Zhen Hu et al.•ARTICLE•Health & Place•2023•References: 9

  • Neighborhood social capital and self-rated mental health

    Open Access•Xiaomeng Wang, Peiling Zhou et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2022

    Introduction Although the impact of neighborhood social capital on mental health has long been recognized, the extent to which the impact differs between immigrants and local residents remains a puzzle. This study aims to bridge the gap by comparing internal migrants who are restricted by their household registration ( hukou ) status, and urban natives in China. Methods Using self-rated mental health and social capital survey data collected in 26…

  • The Neighborhood Food Environment and the Onset of Child-Hood Obesity

    Open Access•Peiling Zhou, Ruifang Li et al.•ARTICLE•Frontiers in Public Health•2021

    Nowadays, obesity and its associated chronic diseases have become a steadily growing public health problem, spreading from the older to younger age groups. Studies have contended that the built environment, particularly the food environment and walkability, may contribute to the prevalence of childhood obesity. In Asian countries which are characterized by rapid urbanization, high population density and oriental diets, little is known about how s…

  • The Effects of Residential Built Environment on Supporting Physical Activity Diversity in High-Density Cities

    Open Access•Yuan Gao, Kun Liu et al.•ARTICLE•International Journal of…•2021

    In high-density cities, physical activity (PA) diversity is an essential indicator of public health and urban vitality, and how to meet the demands of diverse PA in a limited residential built environment is critical for promoting public health. This study selected Shenzhen, China, as a representative case; combined the diversity of PA participants, types, and occurrence times to generate a comprehensive understanding of PA diversity; fully used …

  • Creating therapeutic spaces for the public

    Peiling Zhou, Sue C Grady et al.•ARTICLE•Urban Geography•2021•Cited by: 2•References: 19

    It is becoming increasingly crucial to consider the design and construction of ‘age-friendly” and “healthy” cities to accommodate the world’s changing demographic. We propose a conceptual framework through which urban open spaces are transformed into “therapeutic public spaces”. Following eight months of fieldwork in public parks in two Chinese cities, we found that the assemblage of physical and social elements, as well as elderly people’s perfo…

  • The obesity epidemic and the metropolitan-scale built environment

    Open Access•Jiawen Yang, Peiling Zhou•ARTICLE•Urban Studies•2020•Cited by: 4•References: 43

    Existing research on how the built environment affects physical activity and obesity has mainly focused on neighbourhood-scale features, such as land use mix, street connectivity and density. This research hypothesises that metropolitan-scale built-environment characteristics, such as polycentricity, should also play an important role. The impacts of the metropolitan built environment on individual travel behaviour will further affect how individ…

  • Physical activity and chronic diseases among older people in a mid-size city in China

    Open Access•Peiling Zhou, Anne K Hughes et al.•ARTICLE•BMC Public Health•2018

    Health disparities among older people may widen as the sedentary experience earlier onsets of chronic diseases and worse health trajectories, compared to physically active people. Future health education communication and programmatic interventions should focus on sedentary and less healthy older populations to encourage healthy aging. These lessons from China may be applied to other countries also experiencing an increasing aging population
