  • Does extreme temperature exposure take a toll on mental health? Evidence from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study

    Open AccessYanran Chen, Ruochen Sun et al.ARTICLEEnvironment and Development…2023

    Long-term exposure to extreme temperatures could threaten individuals' mental health and psychological wellbeing. This study aims to investigate the long-term impact of cumulative exposure to extreme temperature. Differently from existing literature, we define extreme temperature exposure in relative terms based on local temperature patterns. Combining the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study and environmental data from the U.S. Nationa…

  • Semantic search during creative thinking

    Yanran Chen, Liang Zheng et al.ARTICLEActa Psychologica Sinica2022

    摘要: 通过描绘发散性思维测验(物品多用途, AUT)中答案生成在累积函数和语义相似性等一系列参数上的量化特征, 揭示创造性思维的语义搜索过程。结果发现:(1)新颖AUT条件中, 语义搜索呈现与自由联想类似的负加速特点, 但搜索速度较寻常AUT条件更慢。(2)新颖AUT条件中所生成的答案与题目(即物品)均具有较低的语义相似性, 且显著小于寻常AUT条件。(3)新颖AUT条件中生成的答案比寻常AUT条件表现出显著更低的聚类程度, 其中可聚类答案和未聚类答案与题目的语义相似度均较低, 且不存在显著差异, 二者在新颖性上也不存在显著差异。以上结果说明了创造性思维的语义信息搜索过程具有与自由联想类似的激活扩散特征, 但总体搜索速度较慢。新颖性要求使得个体在最初搜索时便开始摆脱题目的语义限制而进行远距离搜索(避免就近搜索), 并倾向于在每个语义场中只生成一个答案(避免局部搜索), 但也可能会在远离题目的语义场中生成多个同类别答案

  • The impact of Children’s gender on Parent’s mental health and cognition -- evidence from China

    Open AccessYanran Chen, Ruochen SunARTICLESSM - Population Health2022

    With the growing and aging population round the world, it becomes increasingly important to understand what factors impact the mental health and cognition of the older generations in order to design effective interventions. In this paper, we investigate the effect of a child's gender on parental mental health and cognition in the context of one of the world's largest developing countries and the unique one-child policy, using China Family Panel S…

  • The Impact of Extreme Temperature Shocks on the Health Status of the Elderly in China

    Open AccessYanran Chen, Xuezheng QinARTICLEInternational Journal of…2022

    With the accelerating process of climate change, long-term exposure to extreme temperatures could threaten individuals' physical health, especially for the vulnerable population. This paper aims to investigate the long-term effects of extreme temperature exposure on the health of the elderly in the context of climate change and aging. Different from most of the existing literature in environmental economics, we define the relative extreme tempera…

  • Learning by explaining to oneself and a peer enhances learners’ theta and alpha oscillations while watching video lectures

    Open AccessZhongling Pi, Yi Zhang et al.ARTICLEBritish Journal of Educational…2021

    In the present study, we tested the effectiveness of three learning strategies (self‐explanation, learning by teaching and passive viewing) used by students who were learning from video lectures. Effectiveness was measured not only with traditional measures, but also with electroencephalography (EEG). Using a within‐subjects design, 26 university students viewed three sets of short lectures, each presenting a different set of English vocabulary w…
