Cross‐domain policy feedback effects on mass publics

AbstractScholars have extensively explored policy feedback effects on mass publics. However, research exploring how one policy's implementation affects public preferences for another remains limited. This study proposes a novel cross‐domain policy feedback framework, emphasizing functional and normative interdependence as two mechanisms yielding cross‐domain resource and interpretive effects. We use multiple sets of nationally representative survey data and archival records from China, a context deeply rooted in filial piety culture. We employ a fuzzy regression discontinuity design and multilevel regressions to explore the effects of the one‐child policy on public preferences for old‐age support. The findings indicate that individuals subjected to more stringent enforcement exhibit increased support for the government assuming the responsibility for old‐age support. These changes largely stem from the reduction in their actual and desired number of children. The findings have significant implications for mass feedback research and reform efforts regarding population planning and public pension systems.

Chinese Migrant Workers' Financial Security in Old Age-A Cultural Shift From Reliance on Filial Piety to Public Pension.

Migrant workers' retirement in rural China need not mean that they are financially ready for retirement. This study examines which factors influence migrant workers' public pension savings. Using a mixed-methods approach comprising surveys and interviews with Chinese migrant workers from three emigration provinces (Anhui, Henan, and Sichuan), we find that migrant workers with more social support and less spending on children are more likely to have public pension savings than their counterparts. We also observe an age cohort effect for spending on children: The younger cohorts of migrant workers in their 40s and 50s are more likely to spend their savings on children than save for retirement. In the dual process of urbanization and population aging, the emergence of retirement in rural China is reshaping the intergenerational relations such that the culture of filial piety is no longer the sole foundation of old-age financial security.

The influence of progeny-Parents family travel on the well-being of the elderly in filial piety culture.

Grounded in the cultural context of Chinese filial piety, this study employs structural equation model to analyze survey data from elderly participants. It explores the effect and path of progeny-parents family travel on the elderly's sense of well-being and examines the mediating roles of generational interaction, optimistic emotion, and psychological resilience. The findings indicate that progeny-parents family travel positively influences the well-being of the elderly, with generational interaction, optimistic emotion, and psychological resilience serving as intermediary roles. Theoretically, this study enriches the localized perspective of family travel's psychological and behavioral impact on the elderly. It elucidates the spillover effects of family travel within the framework of filial piety culture, delineates the mechanisms by which family travel enhances elderly well-being, and offers theoretical insights for businesses to develop customized family travel products and services.

How adult children experience and cope with their parents’ diagnosis of multiple myeloma: A qualitative exploration

PurposeThe aim of this study was to understand and explore the caregiving experience of adult children of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) during diagnosis and initial treatment based in Chinese filial piety culture. MethodsA descriptive phenomenology study was conducted to investigate semi-structured interview responses from the adult children (N = 22) of MM patients within three months after diagnosis. Colaizzi's descriptive analysis framework was employed to analyze data. This study was reported following the COREQ checklist. ResultsFour themes and twelve subthemes were identified from the interviews. (1) Commitment to filial piety. Participants subconsciously fulfilled their commitment to filial piety by supporting their parents, obeying their wishes, providing emotional comfort, and protecting them from harm. (2) Experiencing multiple dilemmas. They faced challenges such as difficult treatment decisions, insufficient caregiving preparation, emotional distress, and role conflict. (3) Benefiting from setbacks. The caregiving experience allowed participants to cherish the present more and to establish a new view of life. (4) Adaptive coping. Family supports and self-adaptation are effective coping strategies to achieve their good psychosocial adaptation. ConclusionsOur study provides a culturally sensitive perspective on the caregiving experience of adult children of patients with MM. This study found that Chinese culture, especially filial piety culture, influenced the experiences and coping strategies of MM caregivers. Healthcare providers should focus on the challenges faced by adult children and develop various strategies to help them cushion the burden and adjust to caregiving roles, such as supportive care programs, meaning-centered psychotherapy, and family-centered medical communication interventions.

传统“孝子传”故事教化功能的地方实践 及其效果研究

The Confucian filial piety culture is a very practical culture. How the ancient Chinese government propagates the filial piety culture is an important issue in the study of its inheritance. This paper chooses ancient Yiwu County as a case study to investigate the local government's practice of using traditional filial piety stories, such as filial piety stories or filial piety records, and the effect of practice. In ancient times, Yiwu County used Yan Wu Xiaode's story to carry out local missionary education in two ways: one is to influence local scholars through standardized and grand sacrificial ceremonies, and then pass it on to the people in the county; First, from the central court to the local officials, the main role is to worship Yan Xiaozi, the model of filial piety, which affects the value orientation of the people. In Yiwu, where Confucianism is developed, the filial piety culture of local governments has received good feedback, and the filial piety culture has also penetrated into the blood of scholars. In the context of the Chinese subject culture of “loyalty and filial piety”, it also provided the “loyalty and justice” dividend for the ancient Chinese feudal government, and a large number of “loyal and patriotic” scholar-officials emerged.

Analysis of the Phenomenon and Causes of Stepmother Culture

Stepmother culture is a classic theme culture in the narrative of Eastern and Western ethnic groups. As a female image that differs from biological mothers, "stepmother" is often portrayed as a negative and malicious image in cultural narratives of different countries and regions. However, the "stepmother culture" in China or European and American countries did not initially portray stepmother as a domineering, malicious, or incompetent mother, but rather continuously adjusted the image of stepmother according to the cultural concepts, politics, or social needs of the country. For example, in the Han Dynasty of China, the concept of human relations and filial piety culture were advocated, and stepmother played an important role in maintaining the relationship between father and son in social production, life, and marriage structure, thus creating the stepmother culture The image of a stepmother is more positive, just like the image of an angel suffering and suffering. Starting from the perspectives of Eastern and Western stepmother cultural concepts and phenomena, this paper explores the reasons for the formation and development of different stepmother cultures, sorts out the evolution and development of stepmother cultures in the context of the present era, and demonstrates the unity and diversity of stepmother cultures in different countries.

Summary of Research on Coping with Aging Issues in the Context of Retirement Tide

Population aging is one of the important topics in todays research. The researchers found that the aging of the population is still progressing. However, there are still research gaps in the problem of population aging, and there is a lack of certain explanations and cognition. Therefore, this paper studies the problem of aging under the tide of retirement after the age of 60. This paper uses literature comparison and other methods to find that the scale of Chinas post-60 s population is becoming larger and larger, and the aging problem is increasing. Through reading and sorting out relevant literature research, this study shows that scholars generally believe that Chinas population aging has problems such as large scale, fast speed, regional and urban-rural differences, and summarizes the reasons for Chinas aging that most scholars believe from the literature. From the relevant academic research, scholars have proposed methods such as delaying the retirement age, strengthening pension services, and improving the pension system to solve the problem of population aging. This paper believes that the construction of the pension system is the most important to carry forward the culture of filial piety and respect for the elderly and develop the aging industry and pension services.

Research on the Influence of Pre-Qin Confucian Filial Piety Ideology and Culture on the Ideological and Political Education Mode in Colleges and Universities

Students play a vital role in achieving the aims of the institution and improving institution performance in this respect. The adoption of new technologies has had an effect on how college students learn. The study focuses on the pre-Qin Confucian filial piety ideology and culture on the ideological and political education mode in colleges and universities in China, as well as the planned behaviour theory involved. 420 students from various Chinese universities and colleges participated in an online and in-person survey for the analysis. The results of structural equation modelling (SEM) show that student involvement enhances academic performance. The findings of the study also revealed a link between ideological and political education, forms of education, and student performance in Chinese colleges and universities, as well as the mediating function of Confucian filial piety culture. Additional research can be carried out to keep the understanding of our model accurate. There was yet another drawback to using a quantitative, closed-ended questionnaire. The cross-sectional form of the study makes it challenging to demonstrate a cause-and-effect relationship. As a result, it's important to consider the benefits and drawbacks of the good information era, intensify the positive interventions, properly direct college students' ideological and political education, develop new approaches to this education, and make an effort to incorporate socialist principles throughout the entire process of university and college education. There are significant policy recommendations, questions for further research, and recommended theoretical and practical implications.

Parental Punishment in Home Education

Parental Punishment (PP) is a form of family education that has been misinterpreted from the traditional Chinese culture of filial piety. It relies heavily on the behaviorist mechanism of reward and punishment. But punishment not only makes children feel anxious and unsure of themselves but in the worst cases it can worsen the parent-child relationship. It is also clear from a cognitivist perspective that such an approach to education does not help children to understand the problem itself and its rationale. That it is difficult for children to discover the reasons for their mistakes on their own. Therefore, I question this approach and propose three alternatives that can achieve the same or even better results: utilize positive rewards, teach metacognitive strategies, and change childrens social sphere. Based on these alternatives, I conclude that we should do more to educate and raise the awareness of parents in the face of family education problems. This will improve the situation to a greater extent.

The experiences of East Asian dementia caregivers in filial culture: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

With the aging population in East Asia, the prevalence of dementia and the need for patient care is increasing. Family caregivers of people with dementia are at risk of physical and mental health problems. Filial piety culture regulates relationships within East Asian families and effects the well-being and behavior of dementia family caregivers (CGs). To systematically assess the experience of East Asian dementia caregivers in filial culture. Methods: Electronic databases, including MEDLINE, APA PsycINFO, CINAHL (via EBSCOhost), Web of Science, and Cochrane Library, were searched for relevant studies up to July 2021. Only original articles were included. Thirteen eligible studies were included, of which eight were qualitative and five were quantitative. Meta-analysis showed a negative association (r = -0.18, 95%CI [-0.28, -0.08]) between filial culture and caregiver burden. The quantitative studies identified four themes related to dementia caregivers' experiences: (1) Recognition and understanding of filial piety as part of cultural identity, (2) Role transitions- from child to CG, (3) Filial piety's constraints on CGs; (4) CGs' self-compassion through changing cultural norms of filial practice. Filial culture influences the whole process behind caregiving for East Asian dementia caregivers. At the same time, cultural transition has also brought about new connotations and practices to filial culture.

The Cultural Factors in Moderate to Severe Depression and Relevant Interventions

Depression is resulted from a mixture of hereditary and environmental variables. This article mainly considered biological, genetic, and psychological influences on depression. For environmental aspects, this paper aims to identify the impact of different cultures on depression. The most relevant previous studies were reviewed. The findings suggest that culture does play a role in the development of depression. This review mainly examined studies that compared the effects of individualistic and collectivistic cultures on depression. Traditional filial piety culture and thin culture showed different effects on depression. In addition to the traditional gender roles of certain cultures, caste and other cultural differences can also have an impact on the development of depression. Similarly, prenatal depression is more common in immigrants and poor countries than in non-immigrants and industrialized countries. Resilience and social support are two protective factors for mental health, and these two factors have different degrees of influence depending on the culture. There is still limited amount of research investigated the effects of different cultures on depression. More research on the characteristics of different cultures and their association with depression is needed in the future. This review can provide some guidance for furture research and practice. Prevention and intervention programs for children and families should incorporate cultural factors.

Caring Behavior of Filipinos toward their Elderly Family Members.

The Philippines has an increasingly aging population thereby increasing the demand for healthcare and support from families. Studies showed that the family is the main caregiver of elderly parents/adults as dictated by the Filipino culture of filial piety and respectful behavior towards older people. However, this caring culture is now slowly declining, and Filipino older adults also experience abuse, exploitation, and other forms of neglect from their families. This special article described that the declining caring culture was due to deteriorating family values and societal influences brought about by modernization. This paper also highlights the crucial role of the family and the community in inculcating the preservation of this valued caring Filipino culture, especially among the youth. In cases where senior citizens are being abused and neglected by their families, the state steps in to safeguard the welfare and protection of Filipino senior citizens. Enacted and promulgated laws ensure social justice and protection of human dignity among Filipino older adults as well as the provision of socioeconomic and health needs. In conclusion, the preservation of a caring culture through educating the youth coupled with the implementation of enacted and promulgated laws of the country ensures the quality of aging life among Filipino older adults.

A study on Korean HYO culture for Korean language education - Focused on [The Story of Simcheong-jeon] -

Background: Learning a language is like learning a culture. Since ancient times, Korea has considered ‘HYO’ more important than anything else. Since Korean filial piety contains universality of mankind, its value is unique. When understanding and altruistic consideration for others and other societies are desperately needed, it seems natural to find the orientation of ‘HYO’, a sense of ethics that humanity must protect until the end. Therefore, from the point of view of Korean language education, Korean HYO is highly valued as a culture that can be taught to mankind with various backgrounds. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to confirm the modern value of filial piety culture in Korean language education by utilizing <Simcheong-jeon>, a representative classic novel that best expresses Korean filial piety sentiment. Methodology/Approach: First, by reviewing previous studies of <Shimcheong-jeon>, the common thematic consciousness is analyzed. Second, in the interpretation of HYO in Korea, traditional and modern interpretations are made, and the meaning of ‘HYO’ is reinterpreted from a modern point of view. Third, analyze the contents of <Simcheong-jeon> and review the contents of ‘HYO’ culture with Korean language education in mind from a modern point of view. Findings/Conclusions: The meaning of modern HYO can be interpreted as HYO in which mutual respect acts as a basic principle, HYO in which love for others is premised, and HYO in consideration and service based on understanding of differences and a sense of equality. In <Simcheong-jeon>, as Simcheong's HYO becomes the center, it includes the father's trust and faith in his daughter and Shimcheong's trust and faith in her parents. In addition, it was possible to find the HYO of the spirit of consideration and service through the understanding and love of the neighbors for Simcheong's. finally, the practical attitude of the emperor, who is in the highest position. Implications: If Korea's HYO culture is approached as a universal human value in terms of Korean language education by using <Shimcheong-jeon>, which has been reinterpreted as modern HYO, Korean HYO can be sublimated into a human culture. As an effort for that possibility, this study has significance.

Association between bidirectional intergenerational support and successful aging in China: Evidence from CHARLS 2018

Aging has gradually accelerated in China, and achieving successful aging of older adults has become a public health concern. Intergenerational support is crucial for Chinese older adults in later life due to the culture of filial piety. However, the association between successful aging and intergenerational support remains poorly understood in China. This study aimed to examine the association between patterns of intergenerational support and successful aging of older adults in China. The present study is a secondary analysis of data obtained from the follow-up survey of the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study 2018. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and logistic regressions. Bidirectional intergenerational support was associated with successful aging in the participants. In addition, there was an association between different intergenerational financial, caring, and emotional support patterns and elements of successful aging.
