Navigating Work-Family Conflict in Seafaring Profession: A Latent Profile Analysis Revealing Four Paths of Conflict and a High-Risk Crew in China
The unique nature of the seafaring profession exposes seafarers to severe work-family conflict (WFC). However, existing research often treats WFC as a single continuous variable, overlooking its inherent heterogeneity. This study aims to employ a person-centered approach, Latent Profile Analysis (LPA), to identify latent profiles of WFC among Chinese seafarers and to explore their demographic predictors and differential impacts on mental health. …

Exploring the Relationship Between Frequency of Different Homework Types and Academic Performance: An Example of 8th‐Graders Students on Math in China
Scholars paid attention to the relationship between homework frequency and academic performance, however, fewer of them noticed that the relationship might be nonlinear and may vary across different types of homework. This study aims at exploring the nonlinear relationship between the different types of homework frequency and mathematical academic performance. To reach this goal, the study utilized the Multilevel Piecewise Regression Model (MPRM)…
Parental involvement and academic achievement in Year 4 and Year 8 students: A meta‐analysis based on large‐scale assessments in China
This paper presents the findings of a meta‐analysis on parental involvement and its relationship with the academic achievement of Chinese students. Unlike most meta‐analyses that rely on data from published studies, this study draws from 363 representative regional samples, encompassing 399,375 students in mainland China, including 212,072 Year 4 and 187,303 Year 8 students. The analysis revealed that while the effects of overall parental involve…
Unveiling diverse copper trace element profiles from a single smelting site through laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometric analysis
As an important provenance indicator, trace element profile has been widely used to reveal the origin and mixing history of archaeological bronzes. However, due to the lack of chemical characterization of raw copper from smelting sites, there has been little understanding about the variation of trace element concentration within one copper source. This has significantly confined discussion on copper circulation in prehistoric societies. This rese…

Development and validation of an Academic Involution Scale for College Students in China
The term “nei juan” (in English “involution”) has become a buzzword in recent Chinese tertiary educational contexts, denoting the intense competition and anxiety among Chinese college students. This project aims to develop a reliable and valid scale measuring Chinese college students' competitive psychology, that is, an Academic Involution Scale for College Students in China (AISCSC). To this end, the scale was administered online to 1015 Chinese…
Measuring Self-Esteem with Expanded Format in a Fraction of Time: ESE-S and ESE-US
Despite the ubiquity of Likert format scales, they are not without problems-distorted dimensionality being one of the most serious. Zhang and Savalei proposed an alternative to Likert format called the Expanded format, in which each response option in the Likert scale is replaced with a series of complete statements. In response to their recent call, the purpose of the present study is to develop concise but valid Expanded format scales for the R…

Impact of model parameterization on predictive uncertainty of regional groundwater models in the context of environmental impact assessment
Parameterization strategy impacts models' outputs and the associated uncertainty. This is particularly true for transient regional groundwater models where parameters can only be weakly constrained by insufficient observations. However, this is rarely investigated under any particular model structure. This study bridges this gap using a regional groundwater model developed to understand the impact of coal seam gas extraction on groundwater system…
School Leadership, Education for Sustainable Development (ESD), and the Impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic: Perspectives of Principals in China, Germany, and the USA
We live in times of multiple crises. Climate change, degradation of soils, loss of biodiversity, COVID-19, and the war in Ukraine, to name but a few. School leaders are challenged in many ways to tackle the consequences of these crises, to prepare students for a future that will foreseeably be full of crises too, and to just do their “normal” daily work: to make sure that the school is running successfully in order to help students learn how to r…
