Hollywood will encounter some cultural policies when its films are imported to the Chinese film market on a revenue-sharing basis. These include a quota system, a censorship system and an uncertain release schedule. However, China has been the fastest growing film market since 2008 and the second largest film market in the world since 2012 (yet the current film industries worldwide are recovering from the impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic). Despite the restrictive cultural policies, Hollywood, attracted by the promising profitability, have incorporated more Chinese roles and more plots about China to please the Chinese film regulators and audiences in order to gain access to the lucrative Chinese film market. Furthermore, the depiction of China has become more positive and diverse in recent Hollywood blockbusters compared with the Orientalist stereotypical images in the past. The author intends to examine the reasons behind the phenomenon through analysing the positively changing images of China from early Hollywood films to the recent Hollywood blockbusters. In fact, the positively changing depiction of China illustrates China and the US negotiating the dynamic process of cross-cultural exchange in economic and political terms through compromise, competition and collaboration.
好莱坞电影以分账方式进口到中国电影市场时,会遇到一些文化政策问题。这些政策包括配额制度、审查制度和不确定的上映时间表。然而,自 2008 年以来,中国一直是增长最快的电影市场,自 2012 年以来,中国一直是全球第二大电影市场(然而,目前全球电影产业正在从 COVID-19 大流行病的影响中恢复)。尽管文化政策受到限制,但好莱坞仍被可观的利润所吸引,为了进入利润丰厚的中国电影市场,他们在电影中加入了更多的中国角色和更多关于中国的情节,以取悦中国电影监管部门和观众。此外,与过去东方主义的刻板形象相比,近期好莱坞大片中对中国的描述变得更加积极和多元。笔者拟通过分析从早期好莱坞电影到近期好莱坞大片中积极变化的中国形象,探讨这一现象背后的原因。事实上,中国形象的积极变化说明了中美两国通过妥协、竞争和合作,在经济和政治方面进行跨文化交流的动态谈判过程。

Digital mental health tools can collect vast amounts of data, but little research has been conducted on the impact of visualizing and sharing these data with patients in a clinical setting. In this study, semi-structured interviews were conducted via a HIPAA compliant platform with 10 patients and 5 clinicians in a digital mental health clinic about their experience with the integration of personal data visualizations into care. These interviews, spanning from April 2023 to July 2023, centered around the utility, meaningfulness, and clarity of the visualizations. The qualitative data were subsequently analyzed through an inductive approach for thematic analysis. Themes identified from patient interviews included the ability of visualizations to encourage reflection and action while also providing validation and motivation. Both clinicians and patients noted the importance of having an intermediary (digital navigator) to assist in interpreting the visualizations. The type of visualization preferred by patients varied from patient to patient. Overall, our findings highlight the value of utilizing visualizations in clinical care as a clear and effective way to communicate personal health data to patients and clinicians, suggesting the benefit of continued co-design with all parties.
数字心理健康工具可以收集大量数据,但对于在临床环境中将这些数据可视化并与患者共享所产生的影响却鲜有研究。在这项研究中,我们通过一个符合 HIPAA 标准的平台,对一家数字心理健康诊所的 10 名患者和 5 名临床医生进行了半结构化访谈,了解他们将个人数据可视化整合到护理中的经验。这些访谈从 2023 年 4 月持续到 2023 年 7 月,主要围绕可视化的实用性、意义和清晰度展开。随后,通过归纳法对定性数据进行了主题分析。从患者访谈中发现的主题包括可视化能够鼓励反思和行动,同时还能提供验证和动力。临床医生和患者都指出了有一个中间人(数字导航员)协助解释可视化的重要性。患者喜欢的可视化类型因人而异。总之,我们的研究结果凸显了在临床护理中利用可视化作为向患者和临床医生传达个人健康数据的一种清晰而有效的方式的价值,同时也表明了继续与各方共同设计的益处。

The principal objective of this review paper was to study the impact of gentrification phenomena in Thailand using a research methodology combining a review of the existing literature and a desk analysis of case studies, focusing on two main interconnected contributions to debates on gentrification. First, understanding gentrification phenomena by examining the existing literature required a perspective on not only gentrification but also its stages and consequences. Second, particular attention was paid to the desk analysis of case studies of gentrification phenomena in Thailand to provide an overview and critical analysis. The results of this research show that gentrification has accelerated across the globe to become a central engine of urban development. Gentrification is a complex process that has significant and multifaceted impacts on urban communities. Gentrification can have positive impacts, such as improving the urban scenery by revitalising the neighbourhood’s blighted places and raising property values by making buildings more appealing and contemporary. However, gentrification can also have negative impacts due to critical issues that are neglected such as the displacement of original inhabitants, particularly vulnerable populations; the loss of tangible and intangible cultural heritage; social inequalities; environmental vulnerability; and inappropriate land consumption. All of these factors contribute to the fact that urban development in Thailand still runs into issues or roadblocks that keep it inefficient and unable to fully accomplish the intended objectives.
这篇综述论文的主要目的是通过对现有文献进行综述和对案例研究进行案头分析相结合的研究方法,研究城市化现象对泰国的影响,重点关注对城市化辩论的两个主要相互关联的贡献。首先,通过研究现有文献来理解城市化现象,不仅需要从城市化的角度,还需要从城市化的阶段和后果的角度。其次,特别关注对泰国城市化现象案例研究的案头分析,以提供概览和批判性分析。研究结果表明,绅士化已在全球范围内加速发展,成为城市发展的核心动力。绅士化是一个复杂的过程,会对城市社区产生多方面的重大影响。绅士化可以产生积极的影响,例如,通过振兴社区的破败场所来改善城市面貌,通过使建筑更具吸引力和现代感来提高房产价值。然而,由于一些关键问题被忽视,绅士化也可能产生负面影响,如原有居民,特别是弱势群体流离失所;物质和非物质文化遗产的丧失;社会不平等;环境脆弱性;以及不适当的土地消耗。所有这些因素都导致泰国的城市发展仍然遇到问题或障碍,使其效率低下,无法充分实现预期目标。

Criminology has been hampered by a lack of longitudinal data to examine the consequences of victimisation. However, recently, ‘Understanding Society’, the United Kingdom Household Panel Survey (UKHLS), began fielding a small battery of questions relating to violence experience. Here, we examined the strengths and weaknesses of these UKHLS measures with similar indices from the Crime Survey for England and Wales (CSEW), a widely used and regarded but cross-sectional survey. We empirically assessed the extent to which the UKHLS variables are comparable with those in the CSEW to determine the viability of the UKHLS for the longitudinal study of (fear of) violence and its consequences. Overall, we regarded the UKHLS to provide an important resource for future panel research on the consequences of victimisation. We found the indicators measuring physical assault to be similar in both sets of data, but also noted differences in prevalence and/or different distributions by socioeconomic group for the indices relating to being threatened and of feeling unsafe. Nonetheless, we maintain their utility for researchers in this field, allowing researchers to uncover new inequalities in violence exposure.
犯罪学一直因缺乏纵向数据来研究受害后果而受到阻碍。然而,最近 "了解社会"--英国家庭小组调查(UKHLS)--开始调查与暴力经历有关的一系列小问题。在此,我们用英格兰和威尔士犯罪调查 (CSEW) 中的类似指数来检验 UKHLS 这些测量方法的优缺点。我们根据经验评估了英国 HLS 变量与 CSEW 变量的可比程度,以确定英国 HLS 在纵向研究(恐惧)暴力及其后果方面的可行性。总体而言,我们认为英国人权调查为未来有关受害后果的小组研究提供了重要资源。我们发现两组数据中衡量人身攻击的指标相似,但也注意到与受到威胁和感到不安全有关的指标在流行程度上的差异和/或社会经济群体的不同分布。尽管如此,我们仍然认为这些指标对这一领域的研究人员非常有用,可以让研究人员发现在遭受暴力侵害方面新的不平等现象。

Based on the fact that digitization of education and culture is one of the fundamental strategic objectives of the European Commission and based on the analysis of key documents published by the European Commission in recent years, it can be said that infrastructure, digital competences, and the use of digital content in the educational process are fundamental guidelines that will guide the transformation of educational systems in all EU Member States in the coming years. The aim of this article is to identify the factors, based on a survey of the respondents’ attitudes, that could drive digital transformation in secondary educational institutions in Croatia. Within the theoretical background of the technology acceptance model (TAM), the results of the survey of 185 teachers and subsequent factor analysis show that the material support of institutions is mandatory as a base for change, while individual factors such as fear of technology and digital enthusiasm could govern the teachers’ response to acceptance of the new technologies.
教育和文化数字化是欧盟委员会的基本战略目标之一,根据对欧盟委员会近年来发布的重要文件的分析,可以说基础设施、数字化能力以及在教育过程中使用数字化内容是未来几年指导所有欧盟成员国教育系统转型的基本准则。本文旨在根据对受访者态度的调查,找出能够推动克罗地亚中等教育机构数字化转型的因素。在技术接受模型(TAM)的理论背景下,对 185 名教师的调查和随后的因素分析结果表明,作为变革的基础,机构的物质支持是强制性的,而诸如对技术的恐惧和数字化热情等个人因素可能会影响教师对新技术的接受程度。

In this article, the focus is to grasp ongoing discussions regarding powerful knowledge in relation to social sciences in a broader sense, but especially in relation to religious education. Discussions around norms and values are central in classrooms where both multireligiousness and secularity characterize students’ everyday life and where students constantly move between different multicultural contexts. It is the aim of this contribution to explore the ongoing discussions relating powerful knowledge in RE to existential questions and controversial issues. One way for teachers to work with these goals is to focus partly on subject literacy and on powerful knowledge in relation to inclusive teaching, and partly on subject content where core value issues are expressed together with existential and controversial questions. This will be discussed and explored in this contribution focusing on powerful knowledge and epistemology in social science, and especially in the school subject of religious education.
在本文中,重点在于从更广泛的意义上把握当前有关社会科学的强大知识的讨论,尤其是与宗教教育有关的讨论。在学生的日常生活中,多宗教性和世俗性并存,学生在不同的多元文化背景中不断流动,在这样的课堂上,围绕规范和价值观的讨论至关重要。这篇论文的目的是探讨目前正在进行的有关 RE 中强大知识与存在性问题和争议性问题的讨论。教师实现这些目标的一种方法是,部分侧重于学科素养和与全纳教学相关的强力知识,部分侧重于学科内容,在这些内容中,核心价值问题与存在性问题和争议性问题一起得到了表达。本文将重点讨论和探讨社会科学,特别是学校宗教教育学科中的强大知识和认识论。

The return of war to Europe with the Russo-Ukrainian conflict generated mental health effects even in countries not directly involved in the war. The present study describes the Italian adaptation and validation of the Fear of War Scale (FOWARS), i.e., a 13-item Likert scale built by a Romanian research team and exploring the fear of war. For the Italian adaptation, a sample of 150 young Italian adults (aged 18–30, M = 21.7; SD = 2.2) has been collected. Exploratory Factor Analysis conducted with PCA confirmed the bifactorial structure of the scale and detected two dimensions, i.e., the “Physiological dimension of fear” and the “Experiential dimension of fear”. The results of the Confirmatory Factor Analysis show adequate goodness of fit and the last version of the scale, consisting of 12 items, shows good internal consistency and convergent and discriminant validity. Positive significant correlations with the Worry Domains Questionnaire (WDQ) and the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21) were also found. Moreover, results from ANOVA display significant differences between men and women, with the latter showing higher values of fear of war. Finally, t-test analyses highlight the impact of the fear of war on Italian young adults’ mental health and worry. The Italian adaptation of FOWARS has good overall psychometric properties and can be used to explore the fear of war in the Italian young adult population to highlight the psychological impact of war and its relationship with mental health.
随着俄乌冲突的爆发,战争重返欧洲,甚至在没有直接卷入战争的国家也产生了心理健康影响。本研究介绍了战争恐惧量表(FOWARS)在意大利的改编和验证情况,该量表由罗马尼亚的一个研究小组编制,共 13 个项目,旨在探讨战争恐惧问题。为进行意大利语改编,收集了 150 个意大利年轻成年人样本(18-30 岁,M = 21.7;SD = 2.2)。利用 PCA 进行的探索性因子分析确认了量表的双因子结构,并发现了两个维度,即 "恐惧的生理维度 "和 "恐惧的体验维度"。确认性因子分析的结果表明,最后版本的量表由 12 个项目组成,具有充分的拟合优度,显示出良好的内部一致性、收敛效度和判别效度。此外,还发现该量表与 "担忧领域问卷"(WDQ)和 "抑郁、焦虑和压力量表"(DASS-21)之间存在正相关。此外,方差分析结果显示,男性和女性之间存在明显差异,后者对战争的恐惧值更高。最后,t 检验分析凸显了战争恐惧对意大利青壮年心理健康和忧虑的影响。FOWARS 的意大利语改编版具有良好的整体心理测量特性,可用于探讨意大利青壮年群体的战争恐惧,以突出战争的心理影响及其与心理健康的关系。

An essentialist view of gender and an individualistic concept of subjectivity have distanced psychological theories from emancipatory feminist projects. In Brazil, similar to some other psychological orientations, the behavior-analytic field has sought an interface with feminism. The anti-essentialist vein of radical behaviorism underpins the early movement toward feminism. This essay aims to expand the area of contact with feminism through a theoretical proposal for understanding women’s subjectivity inspired by Brazilian behavior-analytic literature. From a contextualized, multidimensional, pluralized, and politicized view of subjectivity, women’s subjectivation is forged in a tripartite complex of body, person, and “self”, whose relative unity is susceptible to changes and conflicts. In a patriarchal, racist, and cis-heteronormative society, such as the Brazilian one, subjectivation is also an oppressive process. Nevertheless, the essay demonstrates that women’s subjectivation can be a process of emancipatory liberation. This possibility is glimpsed within a virtuous dialectical circuit between disruptive verbal communities (uncommitted to institutional, hierarchical, and oppressive social control) and subversive subjectivities. Thus, behavior-analytic psychology has theoretical tools to situate the process of women’s subjectivation not as a locus of depoliticization but as a crucial ally in constructing a more equitable and just society, as envisioned by feminism.
本质主义的性别观和个人主义的主观性概念使心理学理论与解放女性主义项目拉开了距离。在巴西,与其他一些心理学取向类似,行为分析领域也在寻求与女性主义的结合。激进行为主义的反本质主义思想是早期女性主义运动的基础。本文旨在从巴西行为分析文献中汲取灵感,提出理解女性主体性的理论建议,从而扩大与女性主义的接触领域。从一种情境化、多维度、多元化和政治化的主体性观点来看,妇女的主体性是在身体、人和 "自我 "的三方复合体中形成的,其相对统一性容易受到变化和冲突的影响。在巴西这样一个父权制、种族主义和顺性别社会中,主体性也是一个压迫过程。然而,这篇文章表明,妇女的主体化可以是一个解放的过程。这种可能性是在破坏性语言社区(不受制度、等级和压迫性社会控制)与颠覆性主体性之间的良性辩证循环中窥见的。因此,行为分析心理学拥有理论工具,可以将妇女的主体化过程定位为一个非政治化的地方,而不是女权主义所设想的构建一个更加公平和公正的社会的重要盟友。

This study explored the Youth Leadership/Peer Tutoring program at Refugee and Immigrant Transitions (RIT), a community-based non-profit organization in Northern California. It includes 12 semi-structured interviews with refugee and immigrant youth leaders. Bringing together works on Community Cultural Wealth (with the addition of Migration Capital) and Critical Refugee Studies collectively as a conceptual framework, this study highlights three themes: (a) commitment to community, family, and giving back; (b) encouraging communication and cultivating a pan-newcomer community; and (c) leadership as commitment to community and positive, collective futurities. Data support a strengths-based framework when working with refugee and immigrant youth as they transition and adjust to their new school environments and communities. All 12 participants were refugee and immigrant newcomer youth who participated as youth leaders/peer tutors in RIT’s Youth Leaders/Peer Tutoring program. Countries of origin included Burma (Karen), Bhutan, Nepal, China, and El Salvador. As scholars and practitioners in the field, we are seeing an increased need and demand for more scholarship in this area through a strengths-based lens, as evidenced by calls from educators and school/district administrators requesting support and resources. We submit this article at a time of growing numbers of immigrant and refugee youth in schools in the United States, including non-diverse school environments that are unprepared (and sometimes unwilling) to receive newcomer youth. Our hope is for this study to reveal possibilities for extending welcome and mutual support through a strengths-based lens within diverse newcomer peer learning environments.
本研究探讨了北加州一个以社区为基础的非营利组织--难民和移民过渡组织(RIT)的青年领袖/同伴辅导计划。其中包括对难民和移民青年领袖进行的 12 次半结构式访谈。本研究将 "社区文化财富"(加上 "移民资本")和 "难民批判研究 "作为一个概念框架,突出了三个主题:(a)对社区、家庭和回馈的承诺;(b)鼓励交流和培养泛新移民社区;以及(c)领导力是对社区和积极、集体未来的承诺。在难民和移民青少年过渡和适应新的学校环境和社区时,数据支持以优势为基础的框架。所有 12 名参与者都是难民和移民新青年,他们作为青年领袖/同伴辅导员参加了 RIT 的青年领袖/同伴辅导计划。他们的原籍国包括缅甸(克伦族)、不丹、尼泊尔、中国和萨尔瓦多。作为该领域的学者和实践者,我们发现,从教育工作者和学校/学区管理者要求提供支持和资源的电话中可以看出,他们越来越需要通过基于优势的视角在这一领域开展更多的学术研究。我们提交这篇文章时,正值美国学校中的移民和难民青少年人数不断增加,包括那些没有准备好(有时甚至不愿意)接收新移民青少年的非多元化学校环境。我们希望这项研究能够揭示在多样化的新移民同伴学习环境中,通过以优势为基础的视角来扩大欢迎和相互支持的可能性。
