More and more couples resort to hiring helpers instead of living with elderly parents to outsource domestic work. Currently, it is not clear whether elderly parents and helpers would have the same impact on couples’ time use. To fill this gap, the study examines couples’ paid work time and domestic work time, as well as the gender gap in time use in different household types (i.e. couple-only households, households with elderly parents, and households with helpers). It uses the couple data from the first wave of Hong Kong Panel Study of Social Dynamics in 2011 and conducts the inverse propensity weighting with regression adjustment (IPWRA) analysis. The results show that couples’ total domestic work is reduced to a greater extent in the helper household than that in the elderly-parent household. But this difference disappears if couples live with relatively younger, healthy, and retired parents. Although the impact of younger, healthy, and retired parents and hired helpers would reduce couples’ total domestic work time similarly, they are different in the sense of “help for whom”: hired helpers reduce the gender gap in paid work time and domestic work time, mainly by influencing wives’ time use; elderly parents reduce couples’ domestic work time in a less gendered way, favoring both husbands and wives. Elderly parents and helpers could reduce couples’ domestic workload more or less, but whether gender equality is promoted through outsourcing is worth more attention.","PeriodicalId":51780,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Sociological Review","volume":"54 1","pages":"200 - 222"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47750224","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 investigate this question, we study how Chinese citizens reacted to a novel government initiative which enabled social media users to publicly post requests for COVID-related medical assistance. To understand the effect of this initiative on public perceptions of government effectiveness, we employ a two-part empirical strategy. First, we conduct a survey experiment in which we directly expose subjects to real help-seeking posts, in which we find that viewing posts did not improve subjects’ ratings of government effectiveness, and in some cases worsened them. Second, we analyze over 10,000 real-world Weibo posts to understand the political orientation of the discourse around help-seekers. We find that negative and politically critical posts far outweighed positive and laudatory posts, complementing our survey experiment results. To contextualize our results, we develop a theoretic framework to understand the effects of different types of responsiveness on citizens’ political attitudes. We suggest that citizens’ negative reactions in this case were primarily influenced by public demands for help, which illuminated existing problems and failures of governance.","PeriodicalId":51780,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Sociological Review","volume":"55 1","pages":"1 - 37"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45235429","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}

Studies have substantiated that in Hong Kong, white privilege is evident, as can be seen in that white people are more likely to occupy managerial positions and have higher pay than members of other ethnic groups. After returning to China’s rule in 1997, however, with an increasing flow of migrants from mainland China and closer ties to the Chinese market, Mandarin has gradually gained importance. Taking a field experiment comparing the callback rates received by three distinctive groups of applicants: Whites (Anglo-Saxons), local Hong Kongers, and mainland Chinese, as well as interviews with human resource managers and employers in finance-related industries, this study finds that whiteness and English proficiency are being overestimated while the importance of Cantonese and Mandarin are underestimated by job applicants in Hong Kong. This article contributes to the literature on ethnicity, language, and hiring practice in showing how different linguistic capitals associated with ethnicity are evaluated from employers’ perspectives.","PeriodicalId":51780,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Sociological Review","volume":"54 1","pages":"155 - 177"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"60179496","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 draw on patient-level administrative data from the cities of Jinan and Shenzhen in China, where all COVID-19 patients were immediately hospitalized upon diagnosis. Using survival modeling, we found that having a spouse who is also infected with COVID-19 is predictive of significantly extended hospital stay, an effect that is stronger for older patients than for younger ones. Additionally, having an infected parent—although not child—is also associated with lengthened hospital stay, and younger patients experience significantly worse outcomes from parental-child tie infection. These results are congruent with the existing literature that expects negative consequences of family members’ illness on one’s own health. They also call for more theorizing on the evolving relationship between various forms of family connectedness and health over life-course processes.","PeriodicalId":51780,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Sociological Review","volume":"54 1","pages":"482 - 515"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/21620555.2021.1934824","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49113083","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}

The results highlight the complex ways in which family resources intersect with the pandemic to affect these different groups of children. Family economic resources have generally declined across all groups, but left-behind children have suffered the most severe economic shock. However, parent–child relationships for all children have improved across the board during the pandemic. Diminished economic resources act as a risk factor, while improved family relationships play a protective role in children’s psychological well-being. Parent–child relationships have had a more pronounced positive impact on psychological outcomes for migrant and left-behind children, who are the most deprived of parental input under normal circumstances, than for other groups of children. Because of these processes, migrant children and left-behind children fare similarly to urban children in terms of their resilience to the COVID-19 crisis. Among children enjoying especially favorable parent–child relationships, migrant children and left-behind children even appear to have higher psychological well-being than urban children during the pandemic. In comparison to this social impact, the impact of family economic resources is more moderate in magnitude and does not vary systematically across different groups of children. As a result, the positive impact of improved parent–child relationships largely outweighs the adverse effect of reduced family economic resources. Overall, the findings provide new insight into the relationship among disasters, family resources, and child well-being in the context of the COVID-19 crisis in China.","PeriodicalId":51780,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Sociological Review","volume":"54 1","pages":"27 - 61"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/21620555.2021.1913721","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47422840","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}

Analyzing the Beijing College Student Panel Survey, we find that: (1) Academic performance, extraversion, internship, and health status all have a significant and positive correlation with both types of happiness, while one fatalistic orientation reveals a negative effect; (2) Eudaimonic happiness can be specifically dampened by romantic relationship, and hedonic happiness is specifically weakened by student association participation. Students majoring in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM), males, and ethnic minorities have advantages of hedonic happiness. (3) With regard to changes across college life, the strength of correlations between eudaimonic happiness and the variables of health status and academic performance longitudinally decline, but one’s fatalistic orientation and sense of mastery become increasingly relevant. For hedonic happiness, the advantage of the STEM students over the non-STEM ones is gradually narrowed; what are also counteracted are the detrimental effects of the fatalistic orientation and student association participation. The positive role of academic performance for hedonic happiness is longitudinally strengthened, but the disadvantage of female students deteriorates.","PeriodicalId":51780,"journal":{"name":"Chinese Sociological Review","volume":"53 1","pages":"409 - 429"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/21620555.2021.1904389","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41755093","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}
