Green in isolation
Urban green spaces are crucial for the health and well-being of residents. However, green planning in isolated urban informal neighborhoods might exacerbate spatial inequalities, leading to green gentrification and stigmatization. Understanding the nonlinear and continuous relationships between green environments and residents' satisfaction within segregated areas remains challenging. This study established an interpretable spatial machine learni…
Network analysis of childhood trauma and meaning in life in adolescents with and without depression
Adolescent depression represents a global mental health crisis with dramatically increasing rates worldwide. Childhood trauma (CT) is an established risk factor that disrupts meaning in life (MIL), a process that may exact in a complex interaction with depression. Yet, the trauma-meaning interactions in depressed adolescents remain poorly understood, which impedes development of targeted interventions for vulnerable youth. In this study, we appli…
Why they do not move
Despite the well-documented benefits of physical activity, insufficient activity remains highly prevalent among adolescents with obesity. This study is the first to apply interpretable machine learning methods to identify the barriers, facilitators, and U-shaped determinants of physical activity in this population. We analyzed data from 1,041 adolescents with obesity from the China Education Panel Survey. A range of personal, family, and school-l…
Cosmopolitan Belonging and Third Space
This ethnographic study explores the Durham Bubble Tea Society as a site of cultural identity and transnational belonging among university students. Through qualitative data collection, including interviews and questionnaires, this research investigates why students feel the need to establish a society centered around bubble tea, a drink with deep cultural resonance in East Asia but also a globalized product. The study identifies three overarchin…
Rethinking the Start of Using Textile Fibers
Textile historians tend to demonstrate the history of textiles from the start of using fibers yet rarely explain how people knew to use them. With an investigation of the early textile-related remains and a theoretical analysis of the difficulty in and the demand for using fiber materials, a hypothesis is raised that the know-how of using fibers came from the experience of making textiles with both fineness and strength, which was accumulated fro…
Association of educational attainment with hypertension and type-2 diabetes
BACKGROUNDDue to the long time interval between exposure and outcome, it is difficult to infer the causal relationship between educational attainment (EA) and common chronic diseases. Therefore, we utilized Mendelian randomization (MR) to predict the causal relationships of EA with hypertension and type-2 diabetes (T2DM). METHODSA two-sample MR analysis was conducted using genome-wide association studies (GWASs) combined with inferential measurem…

Since ancient times, sacred power beliefs have been an element of human culture.The beliefs in prayers and vows stem from the people's desire for stability and spiritual dependency, as well as from those passed down from generation to generation.These are frequently based on numerous legends relating to the locations.This article examines the belief in making a pledge to Ai Khai of Wat Chedi in Nakhon Si Thammarat Province, Thailand, with a stucc…
Gender Construction in the Chinese Fandom of Korean Pop Culture
This research delves into the influence exerted by BTS and BLACKPINK, prominent K-pop idol groups, on Chinese K-pop fans’ perceptions of gender, gender equality, and inclusivity. Employing data collected through a comprehensive survey distributed among a diverse cohort of fans (35 young Chinese K- pop fans), the study examines the impact of these musical phenomena’s image and temperament on their Chinese followers’ conceptualization of gender con…
Philippine hedging strategy from the perspective of neoclassical realism
As the main diplomatic strategy of the Philippines towards China, the hedging strategy has been practiced for a long time. In recent years, with the acceleration of Sino-American Geopolitical Competition, as well as the transfer of power in the Asia Pacific region, Southeast Asian countries are facing new strategic decision-making pressure. From the perspective of neoclassical realism, systemic pressure is transmitted through internal factors wit…
Relocations of the households affected by the development of the New Yogyakarta International Airport, Indonesia
Land acquisition for infrastructure development in Indonesia, including Yogyakarta International Airport, has adopted a new principle of profitable compensation. Two options were created: voluntary self-relocation and government-assisted relocation. People whose farms were only partially appropriated by the project did not need to join the relocation. This paper compares problems faced by the three groups and their livelihood prospects, especiall…
Adoptive Parents Navigating Adoption Microaggressions through Discourse Dependency and Preparation for Bias Lenses
Adoptive families must navigate public discourse about adoption. This study examined how transracial adoptive (TRA) and same-race adoptive (SRA) families communicated to their children through internal boundary management, teaching external boundary management strategies, and preparation for bias as ways to address adoption microaggressions (AMAs). 104 U.S. adoptive parents (TRA = 77; SRA = 27) completed a survey about their communication about f…

Prevalence Profile of Oral Disease in Ancient Population
Oral disease has a close relationship with the subsistence patterns and attracts great attention in the paleopa- thological research all over the world. This review provides an overview of the general situation of the oral disease during the different historical era trying to mouse out the pathogeny and the rule of course of such diseases. It has been a long history since human beings evolve from ape to man. Human's oral diseases develop along wi…
How Religious Organizations Influence Chinese Conversion to Evangelical Protestantism in the United States
This article explores how religious organizations have influenced Chinese immigrant's conversion to evangelical Protestantism. Using data collected through ethnographic fieldwork in a major metropolitan area in the Midwest from 1998 to 2003, I describe the extensive resources devoted to evangelism by religious institutions and argue that they must play an important role in converting Chinese immigrants to evangelical Protestantism.

Height and weight percentile curves of Beijing children and adolescents 0-18 years, 1995
Nationwide growth survey has been performed once every 10 years in Mainland China since 1975. However, no percentile growth curves for children from birth to 18 years have ever been constructed for clinical use. The third survey was performed in 1995 and from this survey, data of the Beijing population were retrieved to construct the height for age and weight for age percentile curves. A total of 12218 healthy children were examined for height an…
Postmodernism and Post-Socialist Society
Enthusiasts for Chinese postmodernism are nowadays put on the defensive by those who dismiss the issue as a Chinese problematic, or resist postmodernism in general. However, it is often neglected that, at a pedestrian, journalistic level, it has never been too difficult to identify and inventory postmodern(ist) works
Introduction
This collection of discussions on postmodernism and China undertakes two tasks. The first task is to map out the terrain of what might be construed as postmodern in intellectual and creative activity, focusing for the most part on the People's Republic of China (PRC). The second task is to engage the question of whether postmodernity and postmodernism are relevant concepts for grasping the condition of contemporary Chinese societies, including bu…
Notes on Architecture and Postmodernism in China
Chinese architecture and Chinese cities have undergone tremendous changes in the wave of modernization that began in the late 1970s. A Beijing resident may still hear calls to recapture the look of the ancient capital. But urban Chinese architecture is neither a copy of modern Western architecture nor a version of traditional Chinese architecture packaged anew; rather, it is a contemporary cultural phenomenon evolving from the particular space th…
