Traditional studies of negation were focused on the analysis of its structure and function. In recent years, the research on the processing of Chinese negative sentences had been in the ascendant. Based on the extant literature, this paper first generalized a series of related theories about negative processing, and then analyzed the four influencing factors of the processing of negation as follows: types of negative sentences, context, emotion and individual differences. Finally, it pointed out that more attention should be paid to expanding the research objects, conducting the second language studies of the negative sentence processing, and integrating new experimental methods in future research.","PeriodicalId":272668,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences","volume":"151 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134315212","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
{"title":"The Gender Wage Gap: Obstacle to US Pay Equity","authors":"Amanda Zheng","doi":"10.25236/AJHSS.2021.040617","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.25236/AJHSS.2021.040617","url":null,"abstract":"When President John F. Kennedy signed the Equal Pay Act of 1963, pay discrimination on the basis of gender was made illegal in the US. However, nearly 70 years later, women today are still earning less money than their male counterparts, only 79 cents for every dollar a man makes, indicating the existence of a gender wage gap. This 21 cent difference in the earnings of women compared to their male counterparts not only negatively impacts the wealth accumulation of women, it also has a direct impact on the emotional wellbeing and mental health of women in that women are more likely to suffer from depression and anxiety as opposed to their male counterparts. One study that followed the careers of female and male MBAs found a $150,000 difference in earnings just 9 years after the students had graduated. Another study found that when a female’s income was less than their male counterpart’s, the odds of experiencing depression within the prior year of answering the survey was 1.96 times higher in women and they were 2.5 times more likely to experience anxiety compared to men. One theory that tries to explain an aspect of the gender wage gap is the “Motherhood Penalty” which implies that as women become mothers, they often work less hours and therefore earn less money. As a result, fathers will often step up and compensate for the missed hours and experience the “Fatherhood Premium”. However, research shows that the difference in hours mothers and fathers worked accounts for at most 15% of the Fatherhood Premium which therefore suggests that the discrimination of mothers and upholding of “old fashion notions about parenthood” are to blame for the “Fatherhood Premium” fathers experience. Overall, the systematic discrimination of women in the work field should be combated with legislation, specifically the Paycheck Fairness Act which would bolster women’s equal pay protections.","PeriodicalId":272668,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117133308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For a long time, the traditional western philosophy represented by Plato and Augustine insisted on a ideological path of separating the body and mind and restraining the body and raising the mind. In contemporary academic discourse, the sudden emergence of \"body\" is directly related to the modern trend of thought, and in fact constitutes a reflection and correction of traditional ideological aesthetics. Thinkers such as Nietzsche, Merleau-Ponty, and Foucault initiated this thought process, while Richard Shusterman established its basic orientation from the perspective of discipline construction. In response to this, Chinese scholars have also made more obvious theoretical contributions. As a paradigm of Somaesthetic, it sharply criticizes Logocentrism, insists on cultural comparison, highlights the practical function of theory, and implements the life care of aesthetics, which provides a meaningful value scale for the construction of contemporary aesthetics.","PeriodicalId":272668,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences","volume":"213 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126452187","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Reconstruction of the ancient Oriental empire China and major characters around Mulan are further discussed. It is found that creators of the movie adopt Chinese elements and characters to convey American ideology and values and thus the implication of this study is evident: to arouse readers’ awareness of cultural invasion through media like movies and of the significance of rebuilding China’s international image in the new era.","PeriodicalId":272668,"journal":{"name":"Academic Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128772765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
