Rural industrial upgrading is the basis of rural industrial revitalization strategy, and agricultural technological innovation is the core of rural industrial upgrading. Clarifying the relationship between population aging, agricultural technology innovation and rural industrial upgrading can provide a practical basis for the government to formulate a practical and effective Rural Revitalization Strategy. Based on China’s time series data from 1997 to 2018, an autoregressive model is constructed to test the interactive relationship between China’s population aging, agricultural technology innovation and rural industrial upgrading. The results show that population aging and agricultural technology innovation will promote the upgrading of rural industries. Although in the short term, the intensification of population aging will have an adverse impact on rural industrial upgrading and agricultural technology innovation; However, in the long run, the aging population has significantly promoted the level of agricultural technology innovation and had a positive impact on the upgrading of rural industries. Based on this conclusion, three policy suggestions are given to guide the reemployment of the elderly, advocate the correct consumption view of the elderly and pay attention to agricultural technology innovation.","PeriodicalId":73473,"journal":{"name":"International journal of population studies","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42721848","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}

The spatial differentiation and influencing factors of different types of residence intention of floating population in cities at and above the prefecture level in China are compared and analyzed by using spatial analysis technology and hierarchical model. It is found that the proportion of floating population with short-term and long-term residence intention is more than 60%, indicating that amphibious and multi-habitat livelihood is still the dominant livelihood strategy of floating population; there is an obvious spatial difference between short-term and permanent residence willingness. The short-term residence willingness is the highest in the eastern region and the lowest in the northeast region, while the permanent residence willingness shows a completely opposite distribution pattern; the floating population in the central and western regions has the highest willingness to stay for a long time. The results of the model show that the inflow characteristics and the individual characteristics of the floating population jointly affect different types of residence intention: in the eastern and central regions, economically developed areas and areas with high average wages, the floating population has higher short-term and long-term residence intention and lower permanent residence intention; the floating population who are male with agricultural registered permanent residence, low-level of education and family average monthly income, short floating time and inter provincial mobility tend to stay for a short time and a long time; the floating population who are female with non-agricultural registered permanent residence, high-level of education and family average monthly income, moving within the province and outside the province for a long time are more willing to settle permanently in the inflow place.","PeriodicalId":73473,"journal":{"name":"International journal of population studies","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49287295","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}

This paper makes a further analysis of this issue by using the spatial panel data of 104 cities in the Yangtze River economic belt from 2001 to 2017. The main conclusions are as follows: (1) for the overall regional economic gap, there is an inverted “U”-shaped nonlinear relationship between population flow, population migration and economic gap: expansion effect in the early stage, and the convergence effect in the later stage, which is consistent with China’s gradient development strategy and the phased development concept of “the rich first pushing those being rich later, and finally realizing common prosperity”. (2) For the regional economic gap in the province, population flow also shows the role of expanding first and then converging, while population migration only shows the effect of expansion rather than convergence. The difference between population mobility and population migration originates from the spatial transformation of economic behavior and resource allocation brought about by the change of the latter’s household registration. (3) Considering the spatial effect, the endogenous relationship between population migration and regional economic gap becomes relatively complex, but more comprehensive and objective. The effect decomposition shows that population mobility and population migration are ultimately conducive to balanced regional development, with spillover effect playing an important role.","PeriodicalId":73473,"journal":{"name":"International journal of population studies","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48935475","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}

Counterfactual calculation shows that the important fact that population aging increases medical expenses at different quantiles and reduces the distribution gap of medical expenses is rooted in the high concentration and strong sustainability of medical expenses of the elderly population. The medical expenses of the elderly population not only have the characteristics of high single hospitalization expenses, large proportion of continuous hospitalization and strong dispersion of medical expenses, but also have a heavier expenditure burden in the five medical expense levels. The influence of population aging on the growth of medical expenses is lower than that of the change of age structure of the whole population. The influence of endowment effect increases with time, and the increase of high score medical expenses is the most obvious. In addition, the improvement of health awareness plays a leading role in the structural effect affecting the growth of medical expenses. By constructing the theoretical logic that the medical needs of the elderly population affect the medical expenses, this paper strongly explains the reality of the rapid growth of medical expenses under the background of China’s aging population.","PeriodicalId":73473,"journal":{"name":"International journal of population studies","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44351412","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}

The purpose of this report is to examine how age-related changes in hearing loss and hearing aid use are associated with trajectories of cognitive function in a nationally-representative sample of U.S. older adults. We used 11 waves of longitudinal data from the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) from 1998 to 2018 to examine changes in self-reported hearing loss, hearing aid use, and cognitive function in adults 65 and older by race and ethnicity. Results from mixed models showed that greater levels of hearing loss were associated with lower levels of cognitive function at age 65 in non-Hispanic White, non-Hispanic Black, and Hispanic older adults. We also found that the associations diminished across age in White and Black individuals; but remained persistent in Hispanic individuals. The use of hearing aids was not associated with cognitive function in Black older adults but appeared protective for White and Hispanic older adults. Overall, the findings from this report suggest that the timely identification of hearing loss and subsequent acquisition of hearing aids may be important considerations for reducing declines in cognitive function that manifests differently in U.S. population subgroups.</p>","PeriodicalId":73473,"journal":{"name":"International journal of population studies","volume":"8 1","pages":"17-26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/37/bc/nihms-1899260.PMC10256138.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9981881","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper focuses on the five urban agglomerations of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, the Yangtze River Delta, the Pearl River Delta, the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and Chengdu-Chongqing. Using the census and dynamic monitoring survey data of floating population, this paper analyzes the spatial pattern of population inflow in urban agglomerations from the multi-dimensional aspects of inflow population distribution pattern, flow range and source, and discusses the development trend of spatial pattern and its impact on inflow and outflow from the perspective of spatial differences in residence and settlement willingness. The study found that the inflow population of urban agglomerations continued to concentrate in the key cities, and the level and spatial distribution pattern were generally stable; the scope of flow has been expanded, and the growth rate of flow within the province is generally higher than that between provinces; the population attraction range of coastal urban agglomeration is large, but it still obeys the law of distance attenuation. There are differences in the preference of urban agglomeration from different oringins. In the inflow area, the key cities of coastal urban agglomerations face the continuous challenge of floating population management services, and the attraction of key cities and general cities of inland urban agglomerations coexist; in the outflow areas, the equal and open supply of high-quality public services is an important way to attract population return, and the population loss in a few areas may become a long-term phenomenon.","PeriodicalId":73473,"journal":{"name":"International journal of population studies","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47097309","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}

Methods: Comparative Risk Assessment (CRA) was used to estimate attributable mortality. then the years of life expectancy lost (YELP) were calculated, following the methodology proposed by Arriaga. Secondary data from national statistical offices were used. Results: Argentina and Chile have the highest proportion of men dying from tobacco (14.4% and 14.3% of total deaths, respectively), followed by Mexicans (12.5% of total deaths). Among women, the highest proportion is Chile (8% of total deaths), followed by Mexico and Argentina (5.3% and 5.1% of total deaths, respectively). Brazil has the lowest mortality rate for men and women (5.4% and 2.8% of total deaths, respectively). In terms of life expectancy, Argentine men and women are most affected by smoking deaths, losing life expectancy of 1.77 and 0.65 years, respectively, followed by Chilean men and women. Conclusion: Men and women in Argentina lost the most years of life because of smoking. This is consistent with the anti-smoking policy being implemented in the country. In contrast, control policies are implemented faster in other countries under review. However, despite great efforts to reduce tobacco consumption, tobacco remains the leading cause of death in all these countries.","PeriodicalId":73473,"journal":{"name":"International journal of population studies","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43697727","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}
