Impact of reverse rural-urban migration on the utilization and conservation of cultivated land
Reverse rural-urban migration (RRUM) plays a crucial role in optimizing the territorial system of human-environment interaction in rural areas. This phenomenon introduces diverse resource elements crucial for rural development while simultaneously exerting significant impacts on the level of cultivated land utilization (LCLU) and the level of cultivated land conservation (LCLC). However, the mechanisms underlying the RRUM’s influence on cultivate…
Digital narratives of tradition
Intangible cultural heritage involves identity-forming practices and unique wisdom but includes severe challenges in terms of inheritance and protection because of limited accessibility. The development of the internet has reshaped the way in which messages are presented. Long online video platforms such as YouTube can help media content reach a larger population; thus, investigating how to achieve a better video effect on YouTube is essential. I…
Combined effect of living alone and osteoporosis status on the prevalence of depression in Chinese community-dwelling older population
Background: Given the increasing burden of the "silent" depressive symptoms and the significant comorbidity of osteoporosis in the population living alone, this study aimed to investigate the separate and combined impacts of living alone and osteoporosis on the prevalence of depression in the older Chinese population. Methods: A total of 4,240 Chinese suburban-dwelling older individuals (mean age: 71.75 ± 5.88 years; 58.0% women) aged ≥60 years w…
Comparative agreement between tuberculin skin test and QuantiFeron-TB Gold In-Tube across different levels of exposure in a college-based tuberculosis outbreak
Background Optimal intervention thresholds for students in college TB outbreaks remain debated. Tuberculosis preventive treatment (TPT) is recommended for tuberculin skin test (TST) induration greater than 15 mm. The possibility of TPT recommendation for individuals with TST medium or weak positivity in the context of recent exposure, particularly with close contact with TB, is not entirely clear. Methods The study used a cross-sectional design a…
Legitimizing Energy Transition in China
This study investigates how the legitimacy of new energy development has been constructed in China over the past 2 decades through evolving governance strategies and media representations. Drawing on corpus-assisted discourse analysis of English-language reports from major Chinese media outlets (China Daily, Xinhua, and People’s Daily Online), the study examines how energy discourses—via keywords, nomination strategies, and news photographs—have …
When AI Disagrees
Imagery Rescripting induced transient forgetting of negative autobiographical memories
Imagery Rescripting (ImRs) is a promising intervention for treating emotional disorders associated with distressing autobiographical memories, but its impact on memory recall requires further investigation. This study, based on the retrieval competition hypothesis, proposes a previously overlooked theoretical mechanism, that the process of creating and rehearsing therapeutic imagery in ImRs may require the inhibition of original negative memory r…

Conversation styles and role expectations in a large language model
This study employed a between-participants online experiment with 137 participants to examine how AI conversational style (creative, balanced, precise) and anticipated AI role (co-author, creator, curator, converser) of Microsoft Copilot influence user interaction with and perceptions of the outputs generated by this large language model. The findings revealed that different conversational styles led to variations in readability and linguistic fe…
Social media self-withdrawal and its antecedents and outcomes
Phenomena related to social media self-withdrawal (SMSW) have attracted growing academic attention. However, literature remains underdeveloped in terms of conceptualisation and exploring of this concept. This study addresses the gaps by pursuing two research objectives: (i) achieving a systematic understanding of SMSW conceptualisation and (ii) conducting an empirical investigation integrating its antecedents and outcomes. A two-phase research me…
PTM encoding
Post-translational modifications (PTMs) form a sophisticated regulatory layer that modulates cellular responses to physiological stimuli, notably exercise-triggered metabolic adaptations like skeletal muscle glucose uptake. Understanding PTM-mediated regulatory logic, namely how several well-characterized PTMs coordinate spatiotemporally to mediate distinct biological functions, has become a critical frontier in decoding metabolic memory mechanis…

Climate change threatens global food security significantly, especially in agriculture where drought poses a major challenge. This study examines adoption dynamics and economic benefits of drought‐resistant crops among smallholder farmers in China's degraded, highly vulnerable ecosystems. The objective is to analyze adoption determinants and assess impacts on crop yields and agricultural income, while evaluating government policies' role in facil…
The fusion of tradition and modernity
Intangible Cultural Heritage (ICH) has attracted numerous people because of its unique aesthetics and cultural value as a legacy inherited from our ancestors that embodies profound wisdom and unique cultural meaning. However, with the development and changes in our environment and customs, it is difficult to be exposed to ICH in our daily lives. Short video platforms, such as Douyin, have introduced new methods of transmitting messages, expanding…
The role of AI-activated positive emotions in users’ continuous use of digital financial services
Advancements in artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled technology have made mobile and online settings the dominant places for launching financial services innovation. This study uses an experiment and a survey to investigate whether and how positive emotions activated by AI can enhance users’ continuous use of digital financial services (DFS). The results show that positive emotions can be activated by AI-enabled technology, and AI-activated posit…
Pausing for Reflection
The rapid growth of artificial intelligence (AI) has significant environmental impacts that are rarely communicated. This study leverages the concept of design friction to communicate AI’s environmental costs during user interaction with a system, and examines its effects on trust, perceived trust calibration, and responsible AI use. In an experiment ( N = 171), cue-based friction indirectly enhanced trust-related outcomes through the transparenc…
Silent Stigma in Depression Communication
This study investigates how stigma surrounding depression is subtly produced in news discourse and how such communicative practices frame public representations of mental health. Drawing on a corpus-based discursive news values analysis integrated with multimodal analysis, we examine English-language media coverage of depression in China and the United States. Rather than relying on overtly negative labeling, stigma is enacted through implicit co…
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…
Tuberculosis infection and related factors among 15–17 years old teenagers in Eastern China
Tuberculosis infection (TBI) is a great barrier to tuberculosis control. Previous large-scale study had revealed that the TBI rate was between 13% and 20% for the general population in China. However, there is no large sample size study to evaluate the prevalence of TBI among teenagers. Therefore, it is important to investigate the strength of TBI and explore associated factors among senior high middle school freshmen with a large sample size in …
Mood reactivity to daily interactions with family, peers, and at school
Daily mood reactivity, or the extent to which positive and negative moods change in response to experiences, is both a marker of overall psychological health and a predictor of future health and well-being. A preponderance of studies has focused on negative mood reactivity to stressful events, leaving gaps in knowledge about positive mood reactivity and the impact of positive daily experiences. We aimed to identify within-person patterns of adole…
Enabling or overloading? The double-edged role of E-leadership in civil servant's change-oriented organizational citizenship behaviors
Extant research shows the adaptability of E‐leadership to the demands of the digital era. However, its potential effects have not received ample empirical attention in the public sector. Drawing on Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) model, this study examines the double-edged role of E‐leadership on civil servants' change-oriented organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). Through a two-wave survey of 279 Chinese civil servants, structural equation mod…
Private funding for soil health
Achieving improvements in soil health and biodiversity on agricultural land in the European Union, as outlined in the EU Soil Strategy for 2030 and the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, requires bridging the current funding gap through increased private investment. Yet the funding potential of private individuals remains largely untapped, partly due to a lack of attractive funding opportunities and well-designed incentives. Conducting a Discrete…
Soft governance through media discourse in China's real estate development (2008–2025)
Foreign infrastructure, local frictions
Enduring tensions between neoliberal hegemonies and indigenous responses prevail in post-colonial African urban discourses, particularly regarding the exclusion and reclamation of indigenous, informal, or non-state transport’s access to formal infrastructure systems. This paper examines the intricate relationships between Nairobi’s matatu system—a prominent symbol of African transport and indigenous social infrastructure—and emerging Chinese-back…
Purchasing Versus Providing Care at the VHA
BACKGROUND: The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) greatly expanded the proportion of health care services it purchases from community providers over the last decade, which could impact the quality of care and create care fragmentation. Continuity of care between inpatient and outpatient care delivery systems is critical for high-quality mental health care. OBJECTIVE: To compare rates of outpatient follow-up visits between VHA-purchased and VHA…

Housing Tenure and Residential Segregation in Metropolitan America
Homeownership, a symbol of the American dream, is one of the primary ways through which families accumulate wealth, particularly for blacks and Hispanics. Surprisingly, no study has explicitly documented the segregation of minority owners and renters from whites. Using data from Census 2000, this study aims to fill this gap. Analyses here reveal that the segregation of black renters relative to whites is significantly lower than the segregation o…

The Roots of Illiberal Nationalism in Romania
This article is a study of the dynamics behind “illiberal nationalism” in post-Leninist Romania. It seeks to provide a historical institutionalist explanation for the extent to which universalist liberal political principles have proven compatible with nationalist projects in post-Leninist Romania. The author's hypothesis is that the “illiberal” character of nationalism in contemporary Romania can be traced back to the nation-building project ado…
Is high-tech zone a policy trap or a growth drive? Insights from the perspective of urban land use efficiency
Stretching Postcommunism
Although small-N comparison has become increasingly useful in accounting for postcommunist diversity, most comparative studies tend to focus on a single geographic region (such as East-Central Europe), failing to fully exploit the comparative method and running the risk of selection bias by arbitrarily reducing the variation on a relevant variable. To guard against this risk, two political scientists adapt Sartori's logic of "conceptual stretchin…
Making sense of North Korea
This paper examines the striking institutional parallels between the seemingly inexplicable DPRK (Democratic People’s Republic of Korea) and Ceausescu’s Romania. It argues that in both cases, the role of strong anti-liberal ideology that combined both far left and far right nationalist elements was highly significant in sustaining the regime and therefore should not be underestimated. While developments elsewhere in the Soviet bloc deprived the C…

Differentiating Problematic from Habitual Instagram Use
The popularity of Instagram among young adults has raised concerns about the excessive use of Instagram. Is it the kind of problematic media use that takes over one's life or just habitual ritualized use characterized by mindless scrolling? How can we differentiate between the two based on the use of Instagram features and perceived gratifications from the technology itself? Drawing on the theoretical framework of Uses and Gratifications (U&G) an…
Outward FDI and Domestic Input Distortions
We examine how domestic distortions affect firms’ production strategies abroad by documenting two puzzling findings using Chinese firm-level data of manufacturing firms. First, private multinational corporations (MNCs) are less productive than state-owned MNCs, but they are more productive than state-owned enterprises overall. Second, there are disproportionately fewer state-owned MNCs than private MNCs. We build a model to rationalise these find…
North Korea's Internet strategy and its political implications
During recent years, the role of information technology in shaping politics and social movements in the digital age is drawing increasing scholarly attention. There is, however, little such literature on North Korea as the country remains almost completely cut off from the Internet. Since the mid-1990s, the DPRK government has strategically developed its information and communication technology and has subsequently built a domestic intranet. Alth…

The evolution of transport networks and the regional water environment
We investigate empirically the role of an evolving high-speed rail (HSR) network in improving the regional water environment via industry agglomeration. We use Graph Theory to construct a data set reflecting a continuous evolution of cities’ accessibility to the HSR network. We find that cities with higher degree and closeness centralities in the HSR network tend to have less industrial water pollution. The reallocation of a high-skilled labour f…

Distinct processing for pictures of animals and objects
Many studies have suggested that emotional stimuli orient and engage attention. There is also evidence that animate stimuli, such as those from humans and animals, cause attentional bias. However, categorical and emotional factors are usually mixed, and it is unclear to what extent human context influences attentional allocation. To address this issue, we tracked participants' eye movements while they viewed pictures with animals and inanimate im…

Regulating the power of Chinese police through the exclusionary rule – an empirical study
Little research has addressed the effectiveness of measures to control abuse of Chinese police power in the course of criminal investigations. The present research examined three sets of data from 90 wrongful conviction cases, responses of 557 lawyers to a survey questionnaire, and 125 adjudicative documents related to exclusion of illegal confessions to investigate the effectiveness in stemming police misconduct of the newly established exclusio…
Treatment of Low Back Pain With Opioids and Nonpharmacologic Treatment Modalities for Army Veterans
BACKGROUND: In the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) there is growing interest in the use of nonpharmacologic treatment (NPT) for low back pain (LBP) as pain intensity and interference do not decrease with opioid use. OBJECTIVES: To describe overall and facility-level variation in the extent to which specific NPT modalities are used in VHA for LBP, either alone or as adjuncts to opioid medications, and to understand associations between vetera…
Strengths and weaknesses of the Net-Map tool for participatory social network analysis in resource management
For researchers, conducting face-to-face interviews is always a challenge as it often turns into a one-way directed information retrieval. Therefore, interviewees not always are very motivated, enthusiastic and cooperative in responding to the questions. In the end, this has implications for the quality of the interview data. To improve the interview setting and the resulting data, in several projects the Net-Map tool was used to conduct particip…
