Global adolescent self-harm (10–19 years)
Objectives: Adolescent self-harm is a major global health concern, yet evidence focused specifically on those aged 10-19 years remains limited. This study comprehensively assessed its global burden. Methods: Using data from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021, we analyzed trends in incidence, years lived with disability (YLDs), disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), and risk factors from 1990 to 2021, and projected trends to 2035. Frontier a…
The role of social status on the reading and comprehension of euphemisms
Inhibiting Informal Social Control
Bystander intervention acts as a critical mechanism of informal social control against cyber delinquency. Grounded in Social Information Processing theory, this study examines the barriers impeding students from acting as capable guardians. Analysis of 423 university students supported a serial mediation model: Callous–unemotional (CU) traits inhibit intervention by eroding perceived social support, subsequently desensitizing individuals to harm …
Trump 2.0 and “US Skepticism” in Taiwan
The narrative of “US skepticism,” portraying Washington as an unreliable partner, has been gaining prominence in Taiwan. This perspective encompasses anxieties related to both abandonment and entrapment. After Donald Trump won the 2024 US presidential election with a clear “America first” agenda, Washington made significant changes to its foreign policy. Many analysts attribute the rise of this skeptical outlook to Trump’s transactional approach …
Strategic Ambiguity or Strategic Clarity
Observers have noted that Washington’s policy of ‘strategic ambiguity’ aims not only to deter China from attacking Taiwan but also to keep Taipei from taking actions that may be deemed provocative by Beijing leaders. Remarks and actions taken by former United States President Joseph Biden seem to place America’s long-held ambiguous policy in doubt. It has been argued that a clear security commitment from Washington is likely to bolster Taiwan cit…
The Invisible Catalyst
This study investigates how toxic online disinhibition influences cyberbullying through the mediating roles of belonging collapse and bystander complicity. Using a cross-sectional survey of 379 Chinese university students, we tested a sequential mediation model with structural equation modeling. Results indicate that higher levels of toxic disinhibition predict lower perceived belonging and greater passive bystander behavior, both of which are as…
From perceived social support to prosocial behavior
The results indicate that enhancing individuals' perceived social support and increasing their sense of gain and gratitude may be an effective way to promote their prosocial behaviors. However, the cross-sectional design and convenience sampling limit the ability to draw causal and generalizable conclusions
Psychological crisis detection based on behavioral data
The findings suggest that the non-contact method is effective in predicting student psychological crisis. The use of Random Forest algorithm combined with Top-N assessment can effectively identify high-risk individuals and optimize intervention priorities. Furthermore, this study explored the applicability of non-contact methods for predicting students' psychological crisis in real-world scenarios
The Influence of Illness Perception on Emotional Disorders in Perimenopausal Women in Macau
Studying the emotional disorders of perimenopausal women and their influencing factors from a psychological perspective is essential for developing targeted psychological interventions and support strategies. Such efforts can help middle-aged and elderly women better cope with the challenges of perimenopause and improve their overall quality of life. This study aimed to explore the chain mediating effect of self-esteem and psychological resilienc…
Chinese Amnesia and the Gift of Memory
This article offers an analysis of Madeleine Thien’s 2016 novel Do Not Say We Have Nothing to stage critical questions about the politics of narrating Chinese modern history and the figure of the refugee as necessitated by the Tiananmen Square Massacre. Tracing the origins of the concept of “Chinese amnesia,” this article describes China’s erasure of the Massacre and contests the ways in which this discourse bolsters an orientalist narrative duri…

Buddhist Temples of Tibetan Tradition in Northeast China
This article provides an overview of the history and evolution of four major Tibetan Buddhist temples in Northeast China (Dalelinsi, Wudangzhao, and Gegenmiao Monasteries in Inner Mongolia and Ruiyingsi Temple Complex in Liaoning Province) and analyzes the characteristics of their religious rituals. As important centres for the dissemination of Tibetan Buddhism, the temples of Northeast China not only preserve rich historical and cultural traditi…
The Chinese Threat and Changes of Identity in Taiwan
The importance of identity in understanding contemporary politics has been well articulated in the social sciences literature. Employing the theory of threat, this study examines the effects on Taiwanese citizens’ identity of Beijing’s repressive measures in Hong Kong and its military intimidation of Taipei. Using three waves of panel data collected in Taiwan between 2018 and 2020, we find that respondents shifted significantly toward identifying…
Strategic Clarity and Taiwanese Citizens’ Confidence in the US Security Commitment
President Biden’s remarks that his administration is willing to get involved militarily to defend Taiwan appear to be a significant deviation from Washington’s long-standing policy of “strategic ambiguity.” Critics warn that such a clear pledge is likely to bolster Taiwanese citizens’ confidence in America’s defense commitment, which may encourage Taipei’s pursuit of independence. This study uses deterrence theory with panel survey data to examin…
Jile Buddhist Temple in Harbin, Its History and Contemporary Religious Practices
This article focuses on the activities and religious practices of the Jile Temple (Temple of Bliss) in Harbin; one of the largest and most respected in northeast China. Harbin, founded in 1898 by Russian railway engineers in connection with the construction of the Chinese Eastern Railway, brings together different ethnic and religious cultures. This study provides a brief historical overview of the activities of the temple, which played a major r…
Taiwan in 2022
Taiwan had an eventful year in 2022. Cross-Strait tensions increased dramatically after Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s visit to Taipei. China’s belligerent actions in response have invited international condemnation and triggered more official engagements between Taiwan and the global community. Amid this tension, Taiwan continued its democratic governance by holding local elections in November. A change in COVID policy led to a surge in cases, but the i…
Challenges of the Covid-19 Pandemic
The coronavirus, also known as COVID-19, has dramatically disrupted the global community, causing more than 6 million deaths worldwide and changing daily lifestyles for billions. Two Asian countries, South Korea and Taiwan, have been able to maintain low rates of infections and fatality. Five articles are collected in this special section to examine their successful experiences and the challenges they faced
Hong Kong and the 2019 Anti-Extradition Bill Movement
The 2019 Anti-extradition Law Amendment Bill Movement is the largest series of protests in Hong Kong's history. This Special Issue includes eight articles written by experts. It aims to examine recent developments in Hong Kong, their impacts on the society, and implications to the city's future
The Extension of Particularized Trust to Generalized Trust
External Locus-of-Hope and Collectivist Coping in Students from Three Asian Cities
The positive education movement has called attention to the importance of student well-being and the role of positive constructs, such as hope, in the educational process. The external locus-of-hope dimensions, or positive cognitions about the role of external actors in the pursuit of important goals, positively predict student well-being, learning approaches, and achievement. However, external locus-of-hope dimensions were found to be associated…
Taiwan in 2021
China heightened its military pressure on Taiwan, but president Tsai In-wen defiantly resisted Beijing’s coercion and overcame domestic criticism. With a cooperative public and international support, Taipei quelled an unexpected COVID-19 outbreak. The bullish economy continues to be fueled by global demand for Taiwan’s technology products as the Taipei–Washington relationship progresses advantageously
Is guanxi belief predicted by system-justifying ideologies? Exploring the relationship of guanxi belief with meritocratic ideology, social dominance orientation and right-wing authoritarianism ( ¿Son …
Some scholars view guanxi as having an important role in social transactions in Chinese societies, while others view guanxi as a problematic practice associated with unfairness and inequality. We propose that the belief in guanxi is a societal norm that is part of the social system in Chinese society, and that belief in guanxi as a social norm is associated with Chinese people’s system-justifying beliefs. Chinese university students completed sca…
Exploring Chinese people’s attitudes towards “going through the backdoor”
The present investigation explored Chinese people's attitudes toward the social practice of going “through the back door” or zouhoumen. Zouhoumen is an informal approach to achieve one’s goal through personal connections (called guanxi). We propose that Chinese people distinguish between different acts of zouhoumen and propose at least two types that differ in terms of social cognitive aspects, and that the two types evoke different perceptions o…
U.S. Foreign Aid and UN Voting
Many previous studies assessed the effectiveness of U.S. foreign aid by focusing on voting coincidence rates of allUN votes and found no relationship between U.S. aid distribution and UN voting coincidence rates. Most UN resolutions, however, are simply not important enough for the U.S. to expend its scarce resources in influencing the outcomes. The U.S. government would not be likely to exercise pressure on all UN resolutions but would do so on …
Taiwanese or Chinese? Independence or Unification
Recent political developments on Taiwan seem to suggest that the issues of ethnic identity and the island's future relationship with China are divisive and polarized. Employing the concept of 'political generation', this study examines six waves of survey data collected through personal interviews. The findings indicate that the ethnic identity of Taiwanese citizens has experienced significant change between 1994 and 2002. Many citizens, especial…
Inequality and Political Violence Revisited
In their 1987 article in this Review, Muller and Seligson used logged ordinary least-squares (LOLS) to estimate the effect of income inequality on cross-national levels of deaths by political violence. T. Y. Wang challenges the robustness of the main conclusion and argues for the application of a maximum likelihood approach-the exponential Poisson regression (EPR) model-rather than LOLS. He concludes that the widely used LOLS approach yields misl…
Contending Identities in Taiwan
The majority of Taiwan residents now have Taiwan-centered national identities, viewing the island as separate and independent from the Chinese mainland. Thus, few people on the island support Beijing's “one country, two systems” proposal. China's new leaders need to present fresh plans if they are truly committed to peaceful unification
External Threats and Political Tolerance in Taiwan
Political tolerance is a significant issue for democracies under external threats. When imposed dangers are felt by citizens of the polity, competitors for political power are likely to believe that they are engaging in political battles of a zero-sum nature, having a life or death consequence. Because Taiwan is under constant military pressure from China, it is an excellent case for an analysis of political tolerance in a democracy that is threa…
Taiwan's Expansion of International Space
While much is to be celebrated since Taiwan President Ma Ying-jeou's inauguration in 2008, cross-Strait relations are not without challenges. One such crucial test is Ma's call for Chinese leaders to stop isolating Taipei in the world community and give Taiwan adequate 'international space'. Because the issue strikes at the heart of the fundamental differences between Taipei's and Beijing's positions regarding the island's sovereignty, it needs t…
Arms Transfers and Coups d'État
Early studies of African coups have largely focused on domestic determinants such as social mobilization, economic conditions, and the characteristics of the military itself. Scant attention has been paid to the political effects of arms transfers on military intervention in Africa. Considering that defense spending may meet the demands of the armed forces, absorb vital social and economic resources needed for development, retard the growth of th…

One China, One Taiwan
At the largest opposition party in Taiwan, the Democratic Progressive Party's (DPP) influence on Taipei's future approach to cross-Strait relations can not be ignored. This study aims to systematically examine the DPP's China policy and its implications for future cross-Strait relations. It concludes that, without altering the fundamental principle of "one China, one Taiwan," the DPP has moderated its outright calling for Taiwan's de jure, when t…

Covid-19 and the Anatomy of the Rally Effect in Taiwan
Research has shown that major international events can produce a “rally ’round the flag” effect that boosts citizens’ support for an American president. This study examines such an effect in Taiwan, when the country was confronted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We find that citizens who previously disapproved of the president did become more likely to gather around their leader. The public’s support was contingent on the president’s ability to handle …
Taiwan Citizens' Views of China
Segregation has long been recognized as a source of ignorance which breeds negative feelings and hostility. This view maintains that interactions between members of different groups can foster social bonds and promote positive group relationship. Employing recently collected survey data, this study examines the effect of cross-Strait contacts on Taiwan citizens’ negative views toward Chinese citizens and the Beijing government. The empirical resu…

Balancing, bandwagoning or hedging
Small states have three strategic options when they are confronted by a rising power: balancing, bandwagoning, and hedging. With an increasingly powerful and assertive China as its neighbour, Taiwan, as a small state, is in such a conundrum. Employing survey data collected during the past two decades, this study examines how Taipei’s cross-Strait policy has been closely associated with the public’s preferences. Because Taiwan citizens reject a un…

Political Tolerance in Taiwan
Objectives. This study employs the theory of threats to assess the claim of democratic elitism that elites are more tolerant, politically, than the general public. Methods. Utilizing survey data collected from social elites and the masses in Taiwan, a logit model with binary outcomes is employed. Results. The statistical results show that Taiwanese elites generally exhibit a higher level of political tolerance than the masses but that they become…
Lifting the 'No Haste, Be Patient' Policy
Cross-Strait relations remain deadlocked following Chen Shui-bian's inauguration as Taiwan's president. Amid this political stalemate, Chen's administration decided to change the 'no haste, be patient' ( jie-ji yueng-ren ) policy while refusing to endorse the 'one China' principle. While this policy change is in response to domestic demands, Chen and his ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) are unlikely to reap any benefit from these actions…

China after the Sixteenth Party Congress
Generational succession in leadership is always an important event because the differences in formative experiences of a new generation can result in radically different policies and views of the world. The recent leadership transition in China thus deserves scholarly attention. In the aftermath of the Sixteenth Party Congress of the Chinese Communist Party, this edited volume aims to examine the "prospects and challenges" for China's new leaders…

National Identity and Democratization in Taiwan
Taiwan is undergoing both a process of nation building and a phase of democratic consolidation, and the experience of divided government at the national level together with Taiwan’s unresolved relationship with China have further complicated matters. The end result of these developments will, therefore, have enormous political consequences both for the island, as well as for the peace and stability of eastern Asia. This special issue aims to exam…

Explaining the Oscillation of Cross-Strait Relations
This special section includes four papers to examine the ups and downs of the relationship between Taiwan and China. While both sides of the Taiwan Strait have different political systems, these studies show that domestic politics play a central role in explaining the oscillation of the cross-Strait relationship. The findings provide evidence of the interaction between domestic and external factors. Leaders in Beijing and Taipei therefore need to…
