Consensus Adjustment Mechanism Based on Semisupervised Clustering and Cross Allocation for Large-Scale Social Network Group Decision Making
Consensus adjustment is essential in group decision-making (GDM) to reduce the judgment bias of decision-makers (DMs). Advances in communication technology enable greater online participation, foster complex social networks, and provide more diverse evaluation information. However, few existing studies on large-scale social network-based GDM explored consensus adjustment from the perspective of DM interactions. To address this gap, this article p…
Racial/ethnic disparities in neighborhood physical activity environments
Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander (NHPI) populations have often been overlooked in health equity research due to their aggregation with Asian Americans. This study compares associations of NHPI and Asian population proportions with physical activity environments (PAEs) at the census tract level across the contiguous U.S., Hawaii, and Alaska, using 2020 Census and 2018 neighborhood data. We analyze four PAE domains—built environment, phys…
Spatial Associations of Anti-Asian Hate on Social Media in the USA During Covid-19
Hospital Selection Patterns for Emergency Surgical Care
BACKGROUND: Structural inequities are pervasive in the US emergency care system and disproportionately affect socially vulnerable neighborhoods. Spatial patterns of hospital access for patients requiring emergency surgical care are influenced by health system structure; however, neighborhood-level variation and its association with clinical outcomes has not yet been characterized. OBJECTIVE: Examine variation in spatial patterns of hospital acces…

Disparities in Spatial Access to Emergency Surgical Services in the US
In this cross-sectional study of access to surgical care, nearly 1 in 10 US residents experienced low spatial access to any hospital with emergency surgical services, and 1 in 4 had low access to hospitals with advanced clinical resources. Communities with high rates of uninsured or publicly insured residents and racial and ethnic minority communities in micropolitan and rural areas experienced the greatest risk of limited access to emergency sur…
Spatial Distribution of Hateful Tweets Against Asians and Asian Americans During the Covid-19 Pandemic, November 2019 to May 2020
Objectives. To illustrate the spatiotemporal distribution of geolocated tweets that contain anti-Asian hate language in the contiguous United States during the early phase of the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods. We used a data set of geolocated tweets that match with keywords reflecting COVID-19 and anti-Asian hate and identified geographical clusters using the space-time scan statistic with Bernoulli model. Results. Anti-Asian hate language surged be…

Family Income and Student Educational and Cognitive Outcomes in China
Leveraging data from a nationally representative school-based adolescent survey, the current study aimed to provide a comprehensive assessment of how family income is associated with multiple cognitive and educational outcomes in China and examine the underlying material and psychosocial mechanisms. We found robust associations of family income with school grades, cognitive ability, and study attitude, but not with homework engagement. Moreover, …
Barriers and Facilitators of Colorectal Cancer Screening for Patients of Rural Accountable Care Organization Clinics
PURPOSE: This study examines multilevel factors related to colorectal cancer (CRC) screening in a rural Accountable Care Organization (ACO) setting. METHODS: The study used electronic medical record data from 8 rural ACO clinics in Nebraska. The final sample included 15,866 average-risk patients aged 50-75 years who visited participating clinics at least once from June 2014 to May 2015. Logistic regression was conducted to examine simultaneous ef…
The Association of Point-of-Sale E-cigarette Advertising with Socio-Demographic Characteristics of Neighborhoods
Built environment and active commuting
The purpose of this research was to investigate rural-urban differences in participation rates in three modes of active commuting (AC) and their built environmental correlates. The 2010 Census supplemented with other datasets were used to analyze AC rates in percent of workers age 16+ walking, biking, or taking public transportation to work in 70,172 Census tracts, including 12,844 rural and 57,328 urban. Random-intercept factional logit regressi…
Neighbourhood exposure to point-of-sale price promotions for cigarettes is associated with financial stress among smokers
Exposure to POS cigarette price promotions is associated with financial stress. This finding, coupled with previous reports that smokers with financial stress are less likely to attempt to quit or succeed in quitting smoking, suggests that POS cigarette price promotions may act as an impediment to smoking cessation
Parkinson's Disease and Pesticides Exposure
BACKGROUND: The association between exposure to agricultural pesticides and Parkinson's Disease (PD) has long been a topic of study in the field of environmental health. This research takes advantage of the unique Nebraska PD registry and state-level crop classification data to investigate the PD-pesticides exposure relationship. METHODS: First, Geographic Information System and satellite remote sensing data were adopted to calculate exposure to …
The association of point-of-sale cigarette marketing with cravings to smoke
Recalled exposure to POS cigarette marketing is associated with cravings to smoke as predicted by laboratory studies on the effects of smoking cues on cigarette craving. Policies that reduce or eliminate POS cigarette marketing could reduce cigarette cravings and might attenuate impulse buying of cigarettes
A relative spatial access assessment approach for analyzing potential spatial access to colorectal cancer services in Texas
A three-step floating catchment area method for analyzing spatial access to health services
Gravity-based spatial access models have been widely used to estimate spatial access to healthcare services in an attempt to capture the interaction of various factors. However, these models are inadequate in informing health resource allocation work due to their inappropriate assumption of healthcare demand. For the purpose of effective healthcare resource planning, this article proposes a three-step floating catchment area (3SFCA) method to min…
