Intersecting identities: Sociodemographic heterogeneity in right-wing climate attitudes in the UK
Climate change remains one of the most significant challenges of today. Political orientation, particularly right-wing leanings, is often cited as a key driver of climate scepticism. However, intra-group variations within political orientation categories remain underexplored. This paper uses data from a nationally representative UK survey (n = 3,033) to examine how sociodemographic factors intersect with political orientation in shaping climate o…
A Systematic Review of Agent‐Based Modelling of Residential Low‐Carbon Energy Technology Uptake and Its Integration of Place‐Based Approach
The residential uptake of low‐carbon energy technologies (LCETs) is crucial for energy transition. Emerging literature employs agent‐based modelling (ABM) as an effective computational approach to study this topic. ABM is particularly valuable because it can address the multi‐level dynamics, complexity and emergent phenomena in socio‐technical energy transitions, simulate innovation diffusion and inform decision‐making in policy and planning. How…
Examining spatial variations in the relationship between domestic energy consumption and its driving factors using multiscale geographically weighted regression: A case study in Nottingham, England
A comparative analysis of policies and strategies supporting district heating expansion and decarbonisation in Denmark, Sweden, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom – Lessons for slow adopters of di…
This paper undertakes a comprehensive comparative analysis of policy challenges and opportunities for the deployment of low-carbon DH. Through literature review and complementary qualitative analysis of interviews with key institutional stakeholders in the heating sector (n= 20) of Denmark, Sweden, the Netherlands, and the UK, the paper draws some important lessons on preconditions for successful roll-out of DH. We find that more governments must…
Assessing the adoption of sustainable heating technologies in the United Kingdom – A case study of socioeconomically deprived neighbourhoods of Nottingham city
The transition to sustainable heating technologies is crucial to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, mitigate the impacts of climate change and enable a sustainable and low-carbon society. However, a successful transition will require transformative, and large-scale household behavioural changes, and their acceptance and adoption of new technologies. Through mixed data collected at household level (n = 70) in three of the 10 poorest areas of the UK …
Application of change point analysis to detect speededness based on response time data with known/unknown item Parameters
摘要: 相对于传统的离散作答数据, 作答时间作为连续数据, 可以提供更多信息。改变点分析(change point analysis)技术在心理和教育领域是一个比较新的技术。本文一方面对改变点分析在心理测量领域的应用进行了一个综合的总结和分析; 另一方面, 将基于作答数据的两种改变点分析统计量推广到作答时间数据, 将改变点分析技术应用到测验异常作答模式:加速作答speededness的检测上。采用两种检验方法:似然比检验和Wald检验, 分别在已知和未知项目参数的条件下, 实现异常作答模式的检测。结果表明, 所采用的方法对于加速作答行为的检测具有很高的检验力, 同时能够很好的控制I类错误率。实证数据分析进一步表明本文中所使用的方法具有应用价值
Cyberspace Contention in China
The Chinese Internet is a deeply contentious space. While, in the early years, commentators made optimistic comments regarding how cyber dissent might play a significant role in China's democratization process, from 2013 onwards, researchers have noted an overall narrowing of contentious space on the Chinese Internet. Aside from well‐known, top‐down technological forms of censorship such as the Great Firewall of China, the Party‐state is now taki…
Romanticising the Past: Core Socialist Values and the China Dream as Legitimisation Strategy
This article examines “core socialist values” as a part of the China Dream discourse, in the context of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP)’s search for alternative sources of legitimacy. Using the “visualising our values” poster collection and the “China Dream Child” campaign as case studies, this article argues that such narratives form a crucial part of the CCP’s continuing legitimisation strategy, where the party emphasises its role in providin…
Can China be populist? Grassroot populist narratives in the Chinese cyberspace
The current debate on populism is mostly Euro-American centric. Less attention is paid to how the rise of populist ideas echo and reverberate in other regions of the world. This paper examines how the core concepts to populism, namely 'the people', 'the elite' and 'the other', is constructed and contested in China. I show how the netizens contextualise the rise of populist right in America in relation to China, and how they construct a narrative …
Sinicisation vs. Arabisation: Online Narratives of Islamophobia in China
This article examines the recent rise of Islamophobic narratives in the Chinese cyberspace. Using content analysis of social media headline articles, this article argues that key Islamophobic actors in the Chinese cyberspace have constructed a ‘victims and villains’ narrative to effectively ‘other’ Muslim populations in China. By implying that non-Sinicised Muslims are under Arab fundamentalist influences, religious autonomy becomes political bet…
Middle Class Identity in China: Subjectivity and Stratification
In recent years increasing attention has been paid to the Chinese middle class as a potential driver of domestic sociopolitical change. This article argues that in its current stratified and fragmented form, the so-called Chinese middle class lacks a coherent social consciousness, which prevents it from taking any meaningful sociopolitical action. Interviews from Ningbo, Zhejiang, reveal a strong tendency for respondents who would be counted amon…

摘要
Being Middle Class in China: Identity, Attitudes and Behaviour
Many studies of the Chinese middle class focus on defining it and viewing its significance for economic development and its potential for sociopolitical modernisation. This book goes beyond such objective approaches and considers middle class people’s subjective understanding and diverse experiences of class. Based on extensive original research including social surveys and detailed interviews, the book explores who the middle class think they ar…
The Paradox of Middle-Class Attitudes in China: Democracy, Social Stability, and Reform
This article explores the seemingly paradoxical attitudes of the Chinese middle class towards democracy, social stability, and reform. Using fieldwork data from Ningbo, this article shows that a group of objective, middle-class individuals can concurrently display high levels of support for democratic principles and low levels of participation in real-life socio-political events. Being generally confident in China's social stability, these indivi…
