Association between ambient air pollution and daily non-accidental mortality
Background Current epidemiological evidence on the association between air pollutants and non-accidental mortality remains limited, particularly in developing countries. This study aimed to investigate the short-term association between ambient air pollution and non-accidental mortality, and to quantify the attributable disease burden in Shantou, a subtropical coastal city in China. Methods Daily data on non-accidental mortality, meteorological f…
Factors associated with mental health outcomes among health care workers in the Fangcang shelter hospital in China
Background: Faced with surging infections and considering that 80% of cases were mild and moderate, the city government transformed stadiums and exhibition centers into the Fangcang shelter hospitals (temporary treatment centers) in Wuhan.

Validation of the Chinese version of the Emotion Awareness Questionnaire for use with adolescents
We tested the validity and reliability of the Emotion Awareness Questionnaire (EAQ), and examined the correlation between emotional awareness and social anxiety with three samples of Chinese adolescent students. In Sample 1 ( n = 724) we used exploratory factor analysis to determine the scale's construct validity, finding that the 26-item, sixfactor measure had high accuracy, and a subsequent confirmatory factor analysis indicated a good fit to t…
The epidemic characteristics and spatial autocorrelation analysis of hand, foot and mouth disease from 2010 to 2015 in Shantou, Guangdong, China
The incidence of HFMD across the various streets in Shantou not only varied widely but also represented local autocorrelation. Attention, as well as prevention and control measures, should be focused on those high-incidence areas, such as the Queshi street, Zhuchi street and Xinjin street
Transactional leadership and employee safety behavior
We explored the influence of transactional leadership on employees’ safety behavior, and investigated the impact of safety climate and psychological empowerment on this influence. By surveying 260 employees in the construction industry, we obtained the following results: First, transactional leadership negatively predicted safety climate, psychological empowerment, and employees’ safety behavior. Second, safety climate and psychological empowerme…
Psychoeducational intervention improves Chinese mothers' parenting and symptoms of their autistic children
In China, mothers of children with autism spectrum disorder struggle with parenting, often becoming depressed. This can harm the well-being and sociocognitive development of their children. We determined whether a psychoeducational group intervention increases the frequency of mothers' positive speech patterns and alleviates their depression, and, in turn, whether these changes improve the behavior of their children. Mothers (8 from Shanghai, 8 f…
Societal change and language change in China
Relationships Among Personality, Locus of Control, and Economic Confidence of Chinese Migrant Workers
For many years, China's booming economy relied on a steady stream of workers migrating from rural communities to the industrialized urban manufacturing hubs. However, after the 2008 global financial crisis, more were returning to their rural villages within 3 years. We explored associations between economic confidence, the Big Five personality traits, and locus of control among 750 Chinese migrant workers who completed a self-report survey. We co…
Objective measurement of effectiveness of psychological consulting services
We investigated whether or not physiological signals reflect the effectiveness of a psychological consultation. Participants ( N = 108 college students) rated the quality of a consulting service. We recorded their vital signs before and after the consultation session, and eye-related signals during the consulting process. Results of paired samples t tests showed that body temperature, heart rate, and blood pressure had changed significantly after…
Sleep Disturbances and Associated Factors in Chinese Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder
The Relationship Between Work Stress and Mental Health in Medical Workers in East China
We evaluated the relationship between work stress and mental health in 440 medical workers in East China. We used a modified version of the Work Stress Profile with good psychometric properties to evaluate 3 dimensions of work stress: task, interpersonal relationship, and role ambiguity. Results showed that role ambiguity work stress was higher in women than in men and overall work stress and task work stress were higher in married than in unmarr…
The effect of emotion and time pressure on risk decision-making
Emotion and time pressure are two important factors affecting risk decision-making. This study explored the interaction of emotion and time pressure on risk decision-making by adopting 3 (emotion state: positive emotion, negative emotion, and control group) × 2 (time constraint: high time constraint and no time constraint) between-subject experiment design. The results showed that (1) both emotion and time pressure exerted significant effect on r…
Prevalence of low back pain and associated occupational factors among Chinese coal miners
Low back pain is common among Chinese miners. There were strong associations with occupational factors
Prevalence of low back pain and associated occupational factors among Chinese coal miners
Very few studies have evaluated the association between occupational factors and low back pain (LBP) among miners. The epidemiological data on LBP in Chinese miners are limited. The aim of this study was to measure the prevalence of low back pain in Chinese coal miners and to investigate the role of occupational factors. A cross-sectional survey was conducted to examine 1573 coal miners in northern China. The prevalence of LBP over a 12-month per…
