Upskilling and lowered risks of AI-labor substitution
Can education shield graduates from the storm of AI-induced displacement in the labor market? To address this research question, the study uses China’s National College Entrance Examination reform as a policy shock and examines how the abolition of the liberal arts–science tracking system affects graduates’ labor market outcomes. Following the upskilling framework and employing a cohort difference-in-differences research design, this study finds …
Reverse socialization? Gender beliefs between parents and their gender-liberal children in China
Family is the primary sphere for gender socialization. However, it is usually assumed that the direction of the socialization process is downward, with parents impacting children's gender beliefs. Children's agency in influencing their parents’ gender beliefs is under-investigated. For this reason, this study pays its intellectual attention to reverse gender socialization, exploring whether and how gender-liberal adult children impact their older…
Policy stringency and social trust in China
Strict policies are expected to affect people’s social attitudes through social control. Taking the case of COVID-19, this study examines the relationship between policy stringency and two types of social trust – regarding daily lives and political contexts, respectively. Results show that for both types of social trust, strict COVID-19 policies were associated with reduced out-group trust while having a null association with in-group trust durin…
Educational attainment and anxiety over AI-induced job loss
The Fourth Industrial Revolution has reshaped labour markets, intensifying concerns about job displacement by artificial intelligence (AI). Although education has historically mitigated employment risks, whether this protective effect persists in the AI era remains contested. Drawing on a nationwide online survey of Chinese citizens, we show that higher educational attainment is associated with lower anxiety about AI-induced job loss. Decompositi…
Selective Reciprocity
Studies often portray the relationship between parental involvement and children's educational outcomes as a one‐directional causal relationship. However, children's academic achievement shapes parental behaviors, and mothers likely respond differently to children's academic performances than fathers do. This study instead considers parent–child communication, a key indicator of parental involvement, and children's academic performance as a recip…
A Lifelong Negotiation
The division of housework reflects both gender norms and spousal relative status, yet most research treats it as static, leaving long‐term patterns less understood. This study examines how the allocation of household labor evolves over the course of marriage in contemporary China and how these dynamics vary according to wives' status relative to their husbands. Using four waves of the China Family Panel Studies, we employ growth curve models to t…
Determinants of Informal Social Help Among Women Enduring Marital Separation and Poverty
Digital retirees? Retirement and online shopping in China
Retirement is seen as an important life course transition that brings changes to older adults’ life experiences, but how it affects retirees’ online consumption is relatively less known under the development of the digital economy. This study proposes that retirement may positively influence older adults’ online consumption because of richer time of Internet use, higher income, and more social contact with their children at retirement. Using data…
Network shelter or network trap? The use of social ties and the motherhood wage penalty in China’s labour market
Both supply-side and demand-side factors are studied to explain heterogeneity in the motherhood wage penalty. Yet, how job attainment pathways mitigate or exacerbate the motherhood wage penalty is less known. Taking the case of the Chinese labour market, where social ties are frequently used for job attainment, this study examines how the motherhood wage penalty is moderated by different social tie use strategies. Employing panel data from the Ch…

Stuck or protected? Covid ‐19 policy stringency and depressive emotions in urban China
Mixed findings are found on the psychological outcomes of anti‐COVID policies during the pandemic. This study proposes a synthesized framework to connect the opposite findings and introduce a nonlinear relationship between anti‐COVID policy stringency and people's subjective well‐being. Employing data collected from the China Family Panel Study and the Oxford COVID‐19 Government Response Tracker, as well as the lagged dependent variable multileve…

Religion and perceived attitudes among African immigrants in Guangzhou, China
Motivated by the fast-emerging literature on African immigrants in new destinations, this paper examines the role of religion in the African immigrants’ perceived attitudes of Chinese people toward them. Building on the triple-market model, we identify different ways Islam and Christianity influence African immigrants’ perceived attitudes in Guangzhou, the most popular gateway city for African immigrants to China. Using both survey and in-depth i…
Shadow education in shadow
Shadow education is used not only to improve students' educational achievements but also to maintain social reproduction by advantaged families. However, little is known about the socially stratified shadow education participation during COVID-19 when the educational environment was uncertain. Using data collected before and after the COVID-19 outbreak in China, this study finds that parental education was a strong predictor of children's shadow …
Maternal/paternal migration, delinquent friendship, and depressive symptoms among left-behind children in China
Massive internal migration in China has greatly disadvantaged children who are left behind. This study unravels the mechanism underlying the association between parental migration and children's mental health through the lenses of social networks and gender. Using data collected in Sichuan, one of the provinces with the largest number of left-behind children in China, this study finds that maternal and paternal migration differ in their associati…
Timing and pathways
The disparity in marriage timing between migrants and non-migrants in China has been detected. One of the explanations for this inequality is the hukou status. Yet, this explanation neglects a special type of migrants: those who have earned a local hukou. This study specifies non-hukou migrants, hukou converters, and local residents in Shanghai, and compares their marriage timing and pathways. Using discrete-time event analyses, this study finds …

The Cost of Being Christian
Whether religion contributes to or mitigates social inequality is ongoing. This study provides new evidence by examining the association between Christian affiliation and Asian citizens' discrimination experiences. Using data from the National Asian American Survey and employing the Inverse Probability Treatment Weighting approach, this study finds that having a Christian affiliation is significantly associated with more interpersonal discriminat…
Global exposure
Previous studies on cultural taste build a class-omnivorousness framework. However, the conceptualization and measure of cultural omnivorousness are highly Western. To examine how cultural omnivorousness is shaped in non-Western societies, this study develops two dimensions of cultural omnivorousness and expands the meaning of social class from socioeconomic status to global exposure. Using data from the East Asian Social Survey, this study finds…
