Labor Pain Relief and Women’s Evaluations of Childbearing
As governments respond to fertility decline with pronatalist policies centered on economic and childcare support, childbirth itself remains undertheorized as an embodied and gendered experience. This study contributes to fertility research and maternal health scholarship by documenting unmet demand for labor pain relief in China and examining how access to pain management shapes women’s evaluations of whether conditions are favorable for having a…

Digital leisure or sleep priority? Strategic temporal negotiation of late-night smartphone use in China’s accelerated society
This study reframes late-night smartphone use among Chinese young adults beyond pathologizing it as self-regulation failure. Integrating self-determination theory with social acceleration theory, we conceptualize this behavior as a strategic temporal negotiation to reclaim personal time. Structural equation modeling (n = 503) reveals that perceived leisure freedom and leisure satisfaction primarily drive behavioral intention, while perceived shor…
Prediction of Remaining Execution Time of Business Processes With Multiperson Collaboration in Assembly Line Production
The prediction of remaining execution time is a critical area of research in business process monitoring. However, limited data availability and deficiencies in existing models have hindered progress in this area. To address these challenges, we introduce two production log datasets, coarse-grained log for television (CGL-TV) and fine-grained log for television (FGL-TV), collected from a semiautomated assembly line for television manufacturing. T…
From repetition to habit
OBJECTIVE: Repetition of physical activity (PA) contributes to the formation of PA habit. However, daily repetitions of PA of varied intensities might differ in their impact on PA habits. This study investigated the effect of daily variability in PA on various facets of PA habits: lack of intention (LOI), lack of control (LOC) and efficiency of PA. METHODS: Daily time spent on light-, moderate- and vigorous-intensity of PA (LPA, MPA and VPA) were…
Mapping the vanishing and transformation of urban villages in China
Urban villages (UVs), informal settlements embedded within China’s urban fabric, have undergone widespread demolition and redevelopment in recent decades. However, there remains a lack of systematic evaluation of whether the demolished land has been effectively reused, raising concerns about the efficacy and sustainability of current redevelopment practices. To address the gap, this study proposes a deep learning–based framework to monitor the sp…
Intergenerational Coresidence With Children and Grandchildren and Maternal Sleep Duration at Midlife
Objectives Mothers with young children tend to have shorter sleep durations than childfree women, but previous research has not considered heterogeneity in sleep duration among midlife mothers who have varying coresidential patterns with their adult, minor, and grandchildren. We examine the distribution of sleep duration across mothers’ different intergenerational coresidential contexts (living without any children, living with any minor children…
Dynamics of Adult Child-Mother Relationships in Emerging Adulthood by Gender and Race
Despite the turbulence of emerging adulthood, past research has mostly overlooked within-person heterogeneity in adult children’s levels of contact and closeness with their mothers during this period. Research further obscures how such temporal relationship patterns may vary across sociodemographic categories. We identify unique trajectories of the adult child-mother relationship using sequence analysis on the National Longitudinal Survey of Yout…
Child’s Gender, Parents’ Gender Ideology
The gender of a child is considered an important predictor of parental gender ideology. However, cross-cultural studies suggest opposite directions of such association. For some countries, having daughters is associated with holding a more egalitarian gender ideology, while for others, more traditional gender ideology. In this paper, I use variation within China to try and identify potential contextual features that may explain these patterns. An…

Number of Siblings and Mental Health Among Adults
Scholars observe an inverse association between sibship size and mental health among adolescents, but how do siblings matter when children become adults and tend to live away from parents and each other? We modify the Resource Dilution Model, suggesting that, as individuals age, the influence of parents declines and sibling are more likely to become resources and less likely to remain competitors. We then test the association between number of si…

Income estimation based on human mobility patterns and machine learning models
Sustainable and inclusive urban development requires a thorough understanding of income distribution and poverty. Recent related research has extensively explored the use of automatically generated sensor data to proxy economic activities. Notably, human mobility patterns have been found to exhibit strong associations with socioeconomic attributes and great potential for income estimation. However, the representation of complex human mobility pat…
Customer satisfaction mediates the relationship between in‐store music and stores’ brand equity
One option for improving store appeal is leveraging the power of in‐store music. This study explored the relationship between in‐store music and stores’ brand equity, with a particular focus on the mediating effect of customer satisfaction. We administered a paper‐based survey to a sample of 268 customers of four Korean apparel stores situated in the northeast region of China, where Korean music was utilized to attract customers. Data analysis wa…
Childbearing Histories and Midlife Cognition
Selection into specific childbearing experiences partially drives the link between childbearing and cognition at midlife, with cascading implications into later life. We suggest incorporating childbearing and early life factors into models to identify social determinants of memory and cognitive functioning
Number of Siblings and Mental Health Among Adolescents
A growing number of children are being raised with few or no siblings yet the consequences of this seismic demographic shift in family forms are not well understood. We investigate this question in the U.S. and China because previous studies highlight how contextual features can play an important role shaping how siblings matter. Our Chinese analyses draw on more than 9,400 eighth graders from the China Education Panel Study (CEPS). In the U.S., …

The results showed that when the…
A Spatio-Temporal Schedule-Based Neural Network for Urban Taxi Waiting Time Prediction
Taxi waiting times is an important criterion for taxi passengers to choose appropriate pick-up locations in urban environments. How to predict the taxi waiting time accurately at a certain time and location is the key solution for the imbalance between the taxis’ supplies and demands. Considering the life schedule of urban residents and the different functions of geogrid regions, the research developed in this paper introduces a spatio-temporal s…
Predicting Lung Cancer in the United States
In this research, we take a multivariate, multi-method approach to predicting the incidence of lung cancer in the United States. We obtain public health and ambient emission data from multiple sources in 2000-2013 to model lung cancer in the period 2013-2017. We compare several models using four sources of predictor variables: adult smoking, state, environmental quality index, and ambient emissions. The environmental quality index variables perta…
