We drew on a recent survey of more than 58,000 participants from 335 large cities in mainland China and measured pay differentials with a vignette experiment about allocating bonuses between two secretaries of different performance levels. Our ordinal regression models adjust for city-level random effects and exploit variation in early-age exposure to the incentives for educational competition across 840 admission district-by-cohort sample groups. Our results show that a higher incentive for long-term educational competition is associated with higher levels of legitimate pay differentials among all groups except the highest-status group, thereby narrowing the status gap. A stronger competitive intensity apparently fosters system justification among the majority lower-status groups but ostensibly does not affect legitimation among the top-status group. This heterogeneity in the effect is (a) unconfounded by personal income rank, provincial gross domestic product, local wealth inequality, and opportunity for college enrollment; and (b) robust to alternative measures of incentives for competition, subdivisions of status groups, nonparametric causal inference, and weighting for sample representativeness.","PeriodicalId":51780,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Sociological Review","volume":"55 1","pages":"351 - 383"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42736926","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There has been a rapid diffusion process of the practice from the families with more resources to families with fewer resources. This study adopts an employment perspective to examine the employers’ subjective experience and the risk of replacing FDWs, and how these are related to the employing families’ economic and informational resources. Analyzing data from a representative household survey (N = 732 employer-FDW dyads) and follow-up interviews (N = 20), the results show that couples living in larger apartments and recruiting FDWs through social networks were more likely to have better subjective experience with their FDWs, while couples who grew up with FDWs in their childhood were less likely to replace FDWs. Families with fewer economic and informational resources have poorer experiences with their FDWs. This finding is important when the practice has become popularized among families with fewer resources.","PeriodicalId":51780,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Sociological Review","volume":"55 1","pages":"210 - 235"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60179697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We foresee that families and gender relations in East Asia will continue to evolve with characteristics of both modern gender egalitarian values and traditional family responsibilities.

When a petitioner drafts a post, they can pick up words and choose how the demand or question is conveyed. Thus, how a post is composed may also influence local government responsiveness. In this study, we investigated whether a delayed response is due to the way the message is drafted or the actual content by separating content-related and content-agnostic text features. Based on posts retrieved from two websites, we found that the response pattern varies by location, time, and type of queried agency. Our results also indicated that lengthy and low positive sentiment posts generally result in longer waiting times. However, more research is needed to gauge the possibility of a false negative and the meaning of contents extracted from computational tools. In addition, our work scrutinized several methodological issues and sought practical solutions to analyzing big data.","PeriodicalId":51780,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Sociological Review","volume":"55 1","pages":"96 - 125"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41571485","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To keep pace with these changes, the gender revolution perspective argues that increasing men’s involvement in the family will reduce burdens on women and facilitate fertility recuperation. This paper investigates the effect of labor sharing on fertility. Using ten waves of data from the Taiwanese Panel Study of Family Dynamics (8,863 couple-wave observations, 1,969 couples), latent class analysis was first used to define a division of labor typology, and mixed-effects models were subsequently estimated to investigate the associations between the division of labor arrangements and fertility behavior. Although the male-breadwinner model prevailed as the most conducive to childbearing, there is an urgent imperative to improve gender equality in domestic labor given the growing trend of dual-earner families. The results highlight the importance of considering couples’ paid and unpaid labor in relation to each other and suggest that gendered divisions of domestic labor have different implications on fertility depending on employment arrangements.","PeriodicalId":51780,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Sociological Review","volume":"55 1","pages":"181 - 209"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42336012","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But how do external shocks, such as new remuneration opportunities, affect artistic novelty? In this paper, I investigate how the launch of monetization programs on online music platforms shapes musical novelty. I examined an original dataset of 12,394 songs on a Chinese music platform that launched its monetization program in 2013. Using computational tools developed in Music Information Retrieval (MIR) to compare song similarity based on their acoustic properties, I employed a novel approach to measure and model the impact of the monetization program on the musical novelty of the songs. The results suggest that while many more songs were uploaded to the platform after the program launch, these new songs are generally less novel than those before. Moreover, the decrease is particularly significant among songs released by indie companies, Pop musicians, or veteran producers. These findings demonstrate that monetization programs will restrain artistic novelty, especially among producers who are more autonomously skillful, unspecialized, or experienced.","PeriodicalId":51780,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Sociological Review","volume":"55 1","pages":"66 - 95"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48648856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We use online dating as a lens to understand age preferences for potential partners and their implications for relationship formation and family change in China. Situated in Shanghai, this mixed-methods study employs a complementary design to analyze data from 5,888 dating profiles and 29 interviews with online daters. Using a two-sided analytical approach, we find that age preferences are highly gendered: With increases in age, men increasingly prefer partners who are much younger than themselves whereas women do not show much variation in preferred age gaps between them and their partners. In-depth interviews reveal the deep roots of these preferences. Gender differences in age preferences are shaped by the stigmatization of single women and men past a certain age, the centrality of reproduction in carrying the family line, and the highly differentiated gender roles in Chinese families. Taken together, online dating likely reinforces existing gender- and age-based hierarchies in China’s marriage market. Gender asymmetry in mate preferences may contribute to further increases in marriage delay and non-marriage in urban China.","PeriodicalId":51780,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Sociological Review","volume":"54 1","pages":"304 - 331"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46198328","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our results confirmed that there was indeed a latent class structure with two extremes—Hongkongese identification with a pro-democracy political orientation (the Yellow camp) versus Chinese identification with a pro-government political orientation (the Blue camp). The Yellow–Blue camps had evident disparities in attitudes toward political independence, violence, breach of law, and anti-mainland sentiments. Whereas the Yellows were characterized by extreme localism that could be described as peripheral nationalism, the Light Yellows were a milder group preferring greater autonomy, not independence.
