Predicting physical activity types in children aged 3–6 from video data using computer vision
Assessing the types of physical activity (PA) in young children is crucial for exploring their relationship with health. Although existing machine learning methods have made certain progress, there are still deficiencies in non-contact, real-time dynamic monitoring and recognition accuracy. This study aims to utilize computer vision technology to construct non-contact, real-time dynamic, and high-precision recognition models for the types of phys…

The relationship between work requirements and mental distress in hospital staff
The findings revealed three distinct WR classes among hospital staff. Significant associations were found between work requirements and mental distress among medical staff in the low and moderate WR classes. Additionally, in these two classes, there were significant relationships in which rumination and WR classes had a chain-mediated nature about work requirements and mental distress. This suggests that future intervention studies should focus o…
Deciphering the psychological tapestry of FGIDs
NA exacerbates symptoms of FGIDs in individuals, and rumination further amplifies this effect, with the mediating influence evident across both high and low ES emotion regulation strategy groups
How does mathematical literacy affect creative thinking? Independent effects and differential impacts across proficiency groups
Impact of international trade on the income gaps between formal and informal sectors
Using national longitudinal survey data, this study examines the impact of international trade on income gaps between formal and heterogeneous informal workers in China. The results demonstrate that the positive effect of trade on income is larger for informal employees and smaller for self‐employed workers compared to formal employees. The decomposition results indicate that the disproportionate geographic distribution in tradable regions widens…
Impact of Long Working Hours on Mental Health Status in Japan
Using the 2010-2019 Comprehensive Survey of Living Conditions (CSLC) conducted in Japan, we examined the impact of long working hours on mental health in Japan while addressing the endogeneity issue arising from non-random selection bias. We assessed the variations in the effects of long working hours on mental health across different groups. The results show that first, individuals working longer hours (55 h or more per week) exhibited a higher …
Gender role attitudes and the gender wage gap
This study explores the influence of gender role attitudes on the emergence of the gender wage gap in China, using the 2014, 2016, and 2018 data from the China Family Panel Studies and decomposition methods. Empirical results reveal that gender role attitudes significantly affect the gender wage gap in China and that the negative effect of inegalitarian gender role attitudes on wages is greater for women than for men. Both gender differences in t…
Trade unions and the wage gap between rural migrant and local urban workers in China
This study estimates union wage premiums and analyzes the influence of trade unions on the wage gap between rural migrants and local urban workers in China by employing the Blinder–Oaxaca decomposition method based on national longitudinal survey data from the China Family Panel Studies (2010–2018). The results indicate that the union wage premium among rural migrant workers is greater than that among local urban workers. The disparity in union d…

Impact of Long Working Hours on Mental Health
Although previous studies have examined the impact of long working hours on mental health in China, they have not addressed the initial value and reverse causality issues. To bridge this gap in the literature, I conducted a dynamic longitudinal analysis to investigate the association between long working hours and the risk of mental illness nationwide. Using three-wave longitudinal data from the China Family Panel Studies conducted in 2014, 2016,…

Internet use and income gaps between rural and urban residents in China
Using longitudinal survey data from the China Family Panel Studies, this study undertook a decomposition analysis to investigate the influences of differences in Internet access and return to Internet use on the income gap between rural and urban residents in China. Several major conclusions were drawn: First, there is a disparity in Internet access between rural and urban residents, with more Internet use among the latter. Second, while addressi…
Political background and its influences on wage gaps
Using the data from the Chinese Household Income Project Survey and the decomposition method, this study investigates the determinants of the wage gap between members and non-members of the Communist Party of China (CPC) from 2002–2018. There were three new findings. First, the endowment difference component (especially education) is the main contributing factor to the wage gap between CPC members and non-members in 2002, 2013, and 2018. Second, …
The elderly’s health capacity to work in China
China’s rapidly aging population has diminished its labor force. This study examines the extent to which the elderly’s labor force participation could be enhanced given their health status. Using national aggregated data from the population census for 1990–2015 and survey data from the Chinese Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study for 2011–2015, we simulated the potential and additional work capacity of China’s elderly using methods employed i…

Social participation and self-reported health in China
Purpose Social participation (SP) has been shown to have a favorable impact on health status, particularly among elders in developed countries. However, empirical study is scarce for China. This study explores the relation between social participation (SP) and health status among middle-aged adults and elders in China when controlled socioeconomic characteristics of individuals. Design/methodology/approach This paper employs an empirical study ba…
The impact of social insurance on health among middle-aged and older adults in rural China
The results provide limited evidence of the positive impact of social insurance on health among middle-aged and older adults in rural China. Thus, social insurance programs should be reformed to enhance their positive impact on health
Impact of social participation on health among middle-aged and elderly adults
SP had a positive, albeit selective, impact on health outcomes among middle-aged and elderly adults in China. The results suggest that policy measures to encourage these individuals to engage in SP are needed to enhance their health
Dynamics of Bacterial and Fungal Communities during the Outbreak and Decline of an Algal Bloom in a Drinking Water Reservoir
The microbial communities associated with algal blooms play a pivotal role in organic carbon, nitrogen and phosphorus cycling in freshwater ecosystems. However, there have been few studies focused on unveiling the dynamics of bacterial and fungal communities during the outbreak and decline of algal blooms in drinking water reservoirs. To address this issue, the compositions of bacterial and fungal communities were assessed in the Zhoucun drinking…
Labour market segmentation by ownership type and gender wage gap in urban China
This paper explores the labour market segmentation by ownership type and its impact on the gender wage gap in urban China. Using the latest data of the China Household Income Project (CHIP) survey conducted in 2014 (CHIP2013) and based on the Brown et al. model, I employ the decomposition analysis in this study. It is found that although both inter-sector differentials and intra-sector differentials affect the gender wage gap, the effect of intra…
The Lewis turning point of Chinese economy
In this article, we estimate production function and calculate surplus labor in agriculture. The estimation results revealed that the Lewis turning point (LTP) was not yet passed in China. This study is also made in comparison with Japanese historical experience. The main contents are as follows. First, we survey the recent change in the urban labor market by using unemployment rate as an index to express the balance of labor demand and labor sup…
