  • Secondary cities as an optimal place to settle down in China? The role of housing, employment and amenities in recent migrants' leaving intention across the urban hierarchy

    Open Access•Jun Wen, Sylvia J T Jansen et al.•ARTICLE•Cities•2026•References: 63

    Urbanization trends in China reveal a shift in migration patterns, with an increasing number of recent migrants leaving primate cities while secondary cities emerge as attractive destinations. Given China's aging population and intensifying intercity competition for migrants, understanding the factors associated with recent migrants' intentions to leave cities at various levels becomes increasingly important. While spatial equilibrium theory impl…

  • What drives young talents’ home-buying intentions? Evidence from China’s first-tier cities

    Open Access•Chi jin, Bo Li et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Housing and the Built…•2025•References: 10

    Young talents are vital drivers of urban social and economic development. However, unaffordable homeownership in China’s first-tier cities increasingly marginalizes this vital demographic. Understanding young talents’ home-buying intentions and their determinants is therefore imperative for policies aimed at attracting and retaining them. While several studies have examined housing purchase determinants, few have considered behavioural psychologi…

  • Understanding civil servants' intentions to open data

    Open Access•Fernando Kleiman, Sylvia J T Jansen et al.•ARTICLE•Information Technology and People•2024

    Purpose The opening of government data is high on the policy agenda of governments worldwide. However, data release faces barriers due to limited support of civil servants, whereas the literature neglects civil servants' role in opening data. This paper aims at understanding why civil servants can be reluctant to support the disclosure of data. The authors developed a model to explain civil servants' behavioral intention to open data. Design/meth…

  • Understanding the Housing Pathways and Migration Plans of Young Talents in Metropolises–A Case Study of Shenzhen

    Open Access•Chi jin, Bo Li et al.•ARTICLE•Housing Theory and Society•2023•Cited by: 7•References: 12

    In the context of skyrocketing house prices and fierce competition for talents between cities, this study explores the housing pathways of young talents and their future migration plans in Shenzhen, China. Using the housing pathways approach and Bourdieu’s theory of practice with three concepts, this study uncovers how structural factors and the often-overlooked agency factors together influence the formation of different housing pathways. Drawin…

  • What attracts young talents? Understanding the migration intention of university students to first-tier cities in China

    Open Access•Chi jin, Bo Li et al.•ARTICLE•Cities•2022•Cited by: 9•References: 86

    In recent years, China has witnessed fierce competition for talents among cities. There is evidence that China's first-tier cities are losing their appeal for young talents due to the soaring housing prices and high living costs in first-tier cities, as well as the catch-up of next-tier cities. Therefore, uncovering what factors drive young talents to develop in first-tier cities is important for policymakers to maintain and enhance the attractiv…

  • Unraveling the determinants for private renting in metropolitan China

    Open Access•Bo Li, Sylvia J T Jansen et al.•ARTICLE•Habitat International•2022•Cited by: 5•References: 69

    After being neglected since the establishment of the housing market in the 1990s, China has recently shown great enthusiasm for developing the housing rental market. It is essential to understand why people choose private renting as it enables us to better identify the demands of tenants and develop policies accordingly to promote private renting. However, at the micro-level, the determinants for people's renting intention have rarely been studie…

  • Residential satisfaction of private tenants in China's superstar cities

    Open Access•Bo Li, Chi jin et al.•ARTICLE•Cities•2021•Cited by: 5•References: 75

    In recent years, Chinese housing policies have been shifting from encouraging homeownership toward developing the private rented sector, especially in the superstar cities. Nevertheless, what are the target groups and characteristics of private rental housing in Chinese superstar cities, and whether the private rental housing is capable of meeting private tenants' housing needs remain unclear. This paper attempts to bridge this gap from the tenan…

  • Why is Housing Always Satisfactory? A Study into the Impact of Cognitive Restructuring and Future Perspectives on Housing Appreciation

  • Different Values, Different Housing? Can Underlying Value Orientations Predict Residential Preference and Choice

    Sylvia J T Jansen, J T Jansen•ARTICLE•Housing Theory and Society•2013•Cited by: 10•References: 9

    Various demographic, socio-economic and socio-cultural shifts have taken place in recent decades. These trends result in a change in the volume and quality of the housing demand as well as in the choice of location. Consequently, the traditional method, which implies asking relatively simple and straightforward questions about the willingness to move, residential preferences and the current housing situation, might no longer be adequate to explai…

  • Why is Housing Always Satisfactory? A Study into the Impact of Preference and Experience on Housing Appreciation

    Open Access•Sylvia J T Jansen, J T Jansen•ARTICLE•Social Indicators Research•2013•Cited by: 22•References: 29

    This study focuses on residents' perceptions of residential quality concerning 23 different dwelling aspects. Respondents were asked to indicate their appreciation of these dwelling aspects on a scale ranging from 0 ("extremely unattractive") to 100 ("extremely attractive"). The influence of two potential factors on the appreciation of dwelling aspects is examined: (1) preference and (2) experience. It was hypothesized that residents who live acc…
