Speaking of our silence. An autoethnographic approach to explore emotional labour of women of colour in academia
This study explores the emotional labour of people of colour in academic spaces. We conducted semi-structured interviews with students and researchers of colour in the UK and Germany, alongside auto-ethnographic exploration using the audio-diary method. Framed by decolonial and post-colonial frameworks, our study highlights the prevalence of whiteness in academia. Through our research, we seek to contribute to a nuanced understanding of the emoti…
Learning of active aging knowledge and practices on quality of life as fully mediated by behaviors
This study applied the Kirkpatrick model to explore the positive effects of active aging knowledge and behaviors – acquired through participation in learning activities – on improving the quality of life (QoL) of older adults. Valid samples were collected from 899 participants aged 55 years or older at active aging learning centers in Taiwan; the samples were analyzed using a structural equation model. The study results indicated that behavior fu…

The concerns of power and recognition regarding international students’ experiences are largely absent from the literature, with a discourse of social inclusion framing the focus. Social inclusion within an economically centred view of international education ignores issues of ‘difference’ and celebrates ‘diversity’ as a key aspect. Such an approach lacks a discussion of power concerns; diversity is portrayed as unproblematic, whereas difference …
Joint effects of physical activity and sleep quality on all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality in stroke survivors
Poor sleep quality is associated with a elevated risk of all-cause mortality. Stroke survivors meeting recommended MVPA levels exhibit lower mortality risk, even among those with poor sleep quality. Future intervention studies are needed to establish whether increasing PA to recommended levels among stroke survivors directly reduces mortality risk linked to poor sleep quality
Identifying the subgroups of depression trajectories among the middle-aged and older Chinese individuals with chronic diseases

Nevertheless, there is limited research on the specific subgroups of depression trajectories within this population and the factors influencing these subgroups. Objective To explore the changing trajectory and influencing factors of depression in the middle-aged and older individuals with chron…
