Language dominance and lexical change in heritage Bai
Aims and objectives: This study investigates whether and how external factors, specifically language dominance, shape two types of lexical-level language change: word borrowing and vocabulary simplification in heritage Bai, as spoken by Bai–Chinese bilinguals in Dali, Yunnan, China. Design/methodology/approach: Data were collected from four Bai–Chinese bilingual speakers using storytelling and free-speech tasks to capture lexical change of Bai la…
The mother–daughter relationship in urban singleton-daughter families
The father–son relationship has traditionally been regarded as the cornerstone of family dynamics and has been the focal point of research in both Western and Chinese contexts. Conversely, the mother–daughter relationship has either been overlooked or portrayed in a negative light. This study aims to shed light on this underrepresented relationship by bringing it to the forefront of academic inquiry. We conducted semi-structured interviews and pa…

Where and how do women travel more and longer than men? Focusing on Mobility Gender Gap by Age Groups
Mopanshan
The prehistoric Lower Yangtze River is becoming a focal point of international scholarship, particularly concerning its inter-group interactions. Recent studies have noticed the pivotal role of southeastern Anhui Province in these dynamics. Situated within this critical transitional zone, the Mopanshan site offers a rich archaeological record that not only addresses the local Neolithic hiatus but also illuminates several key issues. These include…

West and the rest? Interreferencing among majority world countries in developmental psychology research
Despite increasing awareness of sample, author, and editor representation and measurement equivalence in developmental psychology (DP), implicit and nuanced unevenness in the knowledge production consolidating the persisting Minority World dominance remains less explored. Inspired by Chen's (2010) "Asia as Method," this commentary introduces and investigates interreferencing among Majority World countries as a methodological approach that could p…

Reconsidering the Typology of Parenting Styles and Its Association With Preschoolers' Development in Chinese Families
Using latent profile analysis, the study examined distinct joint parenting styles among Chinese families with preschoolers (N = 300; 51.7% girls; Mage = 55.97 months). This study incorporated maternal and paternal reports on multiple parenting dimensions that covered both Western- and Chinese-emphasized practices. Using data collected between 2017 and 2019 from Shanghai, four joint parenting styles emerged: authoritative (39.3%), moderately suppo…
Maternal Sensitivity Predicts Child Attachment in a Non-Western Context
Despite the long-standing debate over the assumed universality of maternal sensitivity predicting attachment security (i.e., sensitivity hypothesis), few long-term longitudinal investigations on attachment have been conducted outside the Western context. We leveraged data from a prospective 9-year longitudinal study of middle-class families (N = 356; female = 48.9%) in China to examine if early maternal sensitivity predicts attachment representat…
From Multimodal Framing to Audience Responses
A study on the influence mechanism of commodity facilitation returns and monetary policy based on public confidence perspective
As a key factor in the macroeconomic process, the interaction between public confidence and the commodity market, especially its impact on commodity facilitation returns and macroeconomic linkages, is worth exploring in depth. This study adopts the TVP-SV-VAR model to analyze the causal linkages, dynamic characteristics, and mechanisms of the interaction, and reveals the following core findings: (1) The economic background and information shocks …

Father knows best? Chinese parents’ perceptions of their influence on child development
This study investigates how Chinese parents’ narratives about the father’s and the mother’s influence on child development reveal their gender beliefs and socialization goals. Drawing on interviews of 62 father-mother pairs from a mixed-method longitudinal study in Nanjing, China, we found that contrary to the assumption that parents of both genders benefit children’s development in their respective, gender-typical ways in extant literature, our …
Preschool English language planning in China
The earlier starting age for learning English is apparent in the non‐Anglophone world. However, in China, kindergartens are banned from delivering subjects that are designated for primary school level, including English language lessons, as part of reforms to eliminate “schoolification” of preschool education. This qualitative study takes a multi‐level approach to language‐in‐education planning to explore how local education authorities and diffe…
Stepfathers and Adolescent Well-Being
Stepfathers may influence their children’s development differently from either biological fathers or stepmothers due to differences in biological relatedness, social expectations, and relevant family processes; however, to date, little is known about the impact of stepfathers despite the increasing diversification of families. This systematic review synthesizes existing evidence on the connection between growing up in stepfather families and adol…

Agreeableness and adolescents' cyberbullying perpetration
OBJECTIVE: The current study explored whether agreeableness predicted cyberbullying perpetration across 3 years and extended previous studies by exploring the mediating effect of moral disengagement and the moderating effects of empathy and gender. METHOD: The participants included 2407 adolescents from 7 middle schools in China. They were recruited to complete the Big Five Personality Inventory, Bullying Scale and Empathy Scale at Time 1, Moral …
Instilling Care
This paper explores the concept of care as a socialisation goal for school-age children among contemporary Chinese parents. Data was generated from interviews with parents from rural and urban families in Nanjing, China in 2011– 2012. Parents’ spontaneous remarks on care revealed how today’s Chinese parents highlighted childcare as parental responsibilities, cultivated children’s self-care skills, and promoted children’s other-caring qualities. I…
A Qualitative Cross-Cultural Comparison of Well-Being Constructs
As early as 1948, the importance and distinctions between social and mental well-being have been clearly established by the constitution of the World Health Organization; “health is a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being” (World Health Organization, 1948 ). This statement was written to be applicable worldwide. Subjective well-being – an important indicator of mental wellness—refers to the evaluation of one’s own declared qua…

Father Love and Mother Love
Research on child development increasingly includes data on both parents and from different cultures. However, the relative importance of fathers versus mothers for child adjustment is still under debate. The present review compares the contributions of perceived paternal and maternal acceptance to various child adjustment indicators among samples of families around the world. We reviewed 127 published studies that included child‐reported paterna…
The Decline of the Chauvinistic Model of Chinese Masculinity
Our study is the first study to explore the transformation of Chinese gender stereotypes over a thirty-year period. Based on the field research conducted in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, People's Republic of China, and supplemental data in Shanghai, Beijing, and Nanjing, we examine the way men and women's supposed "essence" has been objectified in folk ideology to form a cognitive or ideal model of gender. We argue that there is a decline in the 1980s …
How do Chinese fathers express love? Viewing paternal warmth through the eyes of Chinese fathers, mothers, and their children
Chinese Fathers in the Twentieth Century
Fathers and fatherhood are increasingly visible in social science scholarship and public discourse, although the father’s different roles are yet to be integrated. Moreover, most existing studies on fathers and fatherhood focus on either European or North American fathers, or contemporary non-Western fathers; little is known about the historical changes in fatherhood culture in non-Western contexts. This article explores how elite fathers in Repu…

Psychological Maladjustment Mediates the Relation Between Remembrances of Parental Rejection in Childhood and Adults’ Fear of Intimacy
This study assesses interpersonal acceptance-rejection theory’s (IPARTheory’s) prediction that adults’ (both men’s and women’s) remembrances of parental (both maternal and paternal) rejection in childhood are likely to be associated with adults’ fear of intimacy, as mediated by adults’ psychological maladjustment and relationship anxiety. The study also assesses the prediction that these associations will not vary significantly by gender, ethnici…

Within‐ and between‐individual variation in fathers’ emotional expressivity in Chinese families
Parental emotion socialization is a dynamic process encompassing moment‐to‐moment fluctuations in parents’ emotional displays and responsiveness. This study attempted to examine the within‐ and between‐individual variation in fathers’ emotional expressivity during a real‐time father–child interaction in Chinese families. Eighty‐five children ( M age = 7.58 years, SD = 0.50 years, 47.1% boys) from east China and their biological fathers participat…
Parental Power–Prestige and the Effects of Paternal Versus Maternal Acceptance on the Psychological Adjustment of Chinese Adolescents
This study examined the moderating influence of parental power and prestige on the relationship between parental acceptance and the psychological adjustment of Chinese adolescents. Data were collected from 335 urban Chinese adolescents (45% boys) ages 11 through 16 ( M = 13.57 years). The adolescents responded to questionnaires measuring their perceptions of parental power and prestige, parental acceptance–rejection, and their own psychological a…

Fathers’ Involvement in Chinese Societies
Chinese fathers, who have been understudied, traditionally were expected to act as emotionally distant educators and disciplinarians of their children as well as heads of the household. Their dual roles as parents and as men evolved during modern social transformations following divergent paths, with their parental role departing from the Confucian patriarchal ideal further than did their gender role. Today, in Chinese societies, fathers are more…

How essentialist beliefs about national groups differ by cultural origin and study abroad experience among Chinese and American college students
Nationality constitutes a salient part of social categorization. However, little research has examined how people form nationality concepts and how it may be shaped by culture and experience. The current study aims to investigate essentialist beliefs about nationality in participants from two cultural origins: the United States and China. In both samples, we compared college students studying domestically and internationally ( N = 290) by using d…
Extracurricular Activities and Chinese Children’s School Readiness
Organized extracurricular activities (EAs) are prevalent among Chinese preschoolers, yet their role in children’s development is poorly understood. This study investigated the relations between EA participation and Chinese preschoolers’ school readiness (N = 343; Mage = 55.14 months) among a predominantly middle-class sample. EA breadth had positive linear relations with children’s early math and social skills, while attendance intensity demonstr…
Beyond W.E.I.R.D. (Western, educated, industrial, rich, democratic)‐centric theories and perspectives
Fatherhood scholarship has made much theoretical progress over the past decades, yet existing models and concepts continue to draw primarily on western, educated, industrialized, rich, and democratic (WEIRD)‐centric assumptions. This review uses demographically sizeable, culturally significant, yet understudied and undertheorized Chinese fathers as an example to reveal the limitations of applying WEIRD‐centric perspectives when studying fathering…

Les pères et la vie quotidienne familiale
1. Introduction Depuis quelques dizaines d’années, l’apparition des « nouveaux pères » a fait de l’implication paternelle dans les tâches familiales un objet important des études sur la famille. Jusque dans les années 1970, les attentes à l’égard d’un « bon père » se limitaient pour l’essentiel à ce qu’il assure la sécurité économique de la famille. Les obligations quotidiennes familiales étaient du ressort de la mère. Depuis les années 1980, les…
