Paradox of placement policy: Struggling EFL learners’ negotiation of performance-based identity in China
‘I call myself a five (rubbish/loser), but I don’t really want to be’: Online identity and translanguaging play in social media
Failure or being a loser are identities not openly recognized or acceptable in a merit-driven society, especially for top university students. This study investigates the role of translanguaging play in negotiating identities related to precarious life experiences within a Chinese online community on Douban. Drawing on discourse-centered online ethnography (DCOE) and Moment Analysis, we explore how ‘loser’ identities are negotiated, destabilized,…
Understanding linguistic landscapes in a Chinese inland village: A chronotopic perspective
Linguistic landscapes are an important part of a lived space, and the social semiotics of rural linguistic landscapes can reveal the everyday social practices of Chinese peasants. In this paper, the first researcher, a native born and brought up in an average Chinese inland village, conducted an ethnographic study of the rural linguistic landscapes in his hometown village. Walking through the village, using observation, photography and interviews…
Global, regional, and national burden of polycystic ovary syndrome in women of reproductive age: An analysis of the global burden of disease study 2021 and forecast to 2050
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affects 5–20% of women worldwide. This study assessed global, regional, and national PCOS-related burdens. Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 1990–2021 data on women aged 15–49 years across 204 countries/territories were analysed. We estimated PCOS cases, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), and rates per 100,000, using age- and socio-demographic index (SDI)-stratified analyses. Health inequality was assessed …
Unpacking fluid linguistic landscape in a community coffeehouse in Hangzhou, East China: An everyday life perspective
This paper enquires into the emergence of linguistic landscapes as cycles from fluid to frozen and fluid again. It is based on the first author’s ethnographic narratives of the appearance and disappearance of linguistic landscapes in a community coffeehouse in Hangzhou, East China. By moment analysis of the entanglements in everyday life that owners and customers share, we find that the meanings of the coffeehouse space are dynamically shaped by …
High-achieving learner identity in the everyday politics of examination in China: A Critical Narrative Inquiry
"The Need to Create a "Virtual Campus: Translingual Practice and Community Building in Virtual Linguistic Landscape
This study examines the role of virtual linguistic landscapes (VLL) in shaping a "virtual campus" through an analysis of the "985 Five (Rubbish/Loser) Recruitment Project" on Douban. Adopting Digital Ethnographic Linguistic Landscape Analysis (ELLA 2.0), we investigate how translingual parodies, marked by intertextuality, playfully create a "virtual campus." Within this virtual space, university students share experiences of failure, emotional st…
Dance improvisation as an embodied encounter with heritage site: A case in the archaeological ruins of Liangzhu
This article explores dance improvisation as an alternative mode of understanding the archaeological heritage site beyond representational knowledge. Drawing on projects undertaken on Liangzhu Archaeological Site over the past five years (2018–2023), we have employed dance improvisation as a method for participants to explore here and now interactions with the heritage site, focusing on their sensing, feeling and thinking. Using an A/r/tography m…
Language policy and governmentality: Chanting the Chinese Classics
This paper investigates the strategies of governance in the language policy ‘Chanting the Chinese Classics’ (CCC) as deployed by State authorities, schools, and local communities. It highlights the strategy of ‘viewing’ as a nexus between language policy processes and traditional Chinese governing philosophy. To examine the connections between macro-level language policy and local educational and communicative processes, an ethnography of languag…
Developing English teachers' language assessment literacy in an EAP reform context through test design: A case study
Experiencing 'Paragliding: A Student-Teacher Perspective on Doing Qualitative Research in a Chinese University
In this article, I (the first author) explore my qualitative research teaching for a cohort of Chinese students and their interactions in the classroom. These students reported experiencing feelings of paragliding from unsafe distrust to enjoyment through writings, drawings, questionings, feelings, reflections, and struggles. By graphic elicitation, I unfold a cartography of becoming a qualitative researcher and describe lines of becoming-events …
Functional Connectivity of Nucleus Accumbens and Medial Prefrontal Cortex With Other Brain Regions During Early-Abstinence Is Associated With Alcohol Dependence and Relapse: A Resting-Functional Magne…
Background: Alcohol dependence (AD) is a chronic recurrent brain disease that causes a heavy disease burden worldwide, partly due to high relapse rates after detoxification. Verified biomarkers are not available for AD and its relapse, although the nucleus accumbens (NAc) and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) may play important roles in the mechanism of addiction. This study investigated AD- and relapse-associated functional connectivity (FC) of th…
Prognostic Utility of Multivariate Morphometry in Schizophrenia
Background: Voxel-based morphometry studies have repeatedly highlighted the presence of distributed gray matter changes in schizophrenia, but to date, it is not clear if clinically useful prognostic information can be gleaned from structural imaging. The suspected association between gray matter volume (GMV) and duration of psychotic illness, antipsychotic exposure, and symptom severity also limits the prognostic utility of morphometry. We addres…
A vernacular way of "safeguarding" intangible heritage: The fall and rise of rituals in Gouliang Miao village
This paper documents a vernacular method of interpreting and safeguarding intangible heritage in an ethnic Miao village in China. Tracing the conflicting discourses of ritual in different stages of the past and the present, it shows how ritual practices were transformed by imperial Qing officials in the mid-nineteenth century, demonised and denounced as feudal superstition during the Cultural Revolution (1966–1976), exploited as cultural resource…
