Conceptualising Intergenerational Lived Experience: Integrating Art–Moving–Well-Being across Disciplines,Communities and Cultures

Art and movement are motivating forces in, through, and beyond education. As populations age, there is an increasing need to support physical and social well-being. Yet, since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been a reported exponential increase in feelings of loneliness across generations. Complex challenges require trans-disciplinary solutions, and this paper represents a joint effort within and across disciplines, communities and cultures to find ways to ameliorate this silent epidemic. In this paper, we propose a cross-disciplinary conceptual framework where Aboriginal Artists and Knowledge Holders, Teacher Educators, and Physical and Occupational Therapists come together to explore theoretical and pedagogical insights that encompass intergenerational art–moving–well-being practices, reducing feelings of loneliness and improving social connections across generations. There are two main aims of this paper; first, to better understand current studies that report on integrating art–moving–well-being practices, and the effect this has on health and well-being of intergenerational participants (under 10-year-olds, 20+ year olds and 50+ year olds). Second, based on community needs, the long-term aim is to propose a flexible art–moving–well-being conceptual model that is scalable, sustainable and based on social and relational support systems. We propose a model that is flexible and adaptable within and across our local community and beyond. We argue that feelings of loneliness are unique to each individual, and there is a need to connect specific intergenerational programmes with art–moving–well-being practices that readily engage and integrate varied communities and cultures in sustainable ways and thus, contribute to thriving communities.     

An interview with Professor Barbara Comber

As part of this special issue on ‘Literacy for social justice’, and at this moment of post-pandemic transitions in education, we invited Professor Barbara Comber to reflect on the needs for and trends in critical literacy education, both in her local context, in Australia, and internationally. In September 2022, we met with Barbara online to discuss her thoughts about what critical literacy educators need, how scholars and educators can work together to produce change, and where we can see hope in critical literacy and social justice education right now, as part of promising anti-racist, decolonizing, and intersectional literacy frameworks and practices.     

Unpacking (un)conscious social class bias in faculty hiring processes in Chile: PhD prestige granting university and network

Social class of origin is apparently an imperceptible attribute among doctorate holders seeking academic jobs. Yet, recent studies in different countries reveal that social class of origin may still be influencing the chances of PhD holders from low social class being hired at prestigious universities. Drawing from the theory of social and cultural reproduction, normative ‘fair’ academic hirings frameworks, and qualitative evidence collected in Chile, this research identifies the mechanisms that trigger (un)conscious social class bias in the stages of recruitment and selection of candidates in seven academic departments in economics and industrial engineering (46 interviews). Findings did not prove explicit classism manifestations, but practices of inclusion/exclusion of candidates based on the prestige of PhD-granting universities, and networks. These reproduce the relationship between social class and unequal chances of being connected to prestigious universities. Recommendations to address (un)conscious social class bias in academic hiring are discussed.     

流动人口的社会保障陷阱和社会保障的流动陷阱

《城镇企业职工基本养老保险关系转移接续暂行办法》并没有摆脱社会保障的制度陷阱、不公平陷阱和低水平陷阱,反而又延伸出了社会保障的流动陷阱和踢皮球陷阱。这些陷阱形成的主要原因不是人口和社会保障的流动造成的,而是社会保障的模式、现行财政制度和相关政策体系以及区域经济社会发展不均衡联合导致的。要摆脱这些陷阱,实现人口和社会保障的自由流动,我们需要以建立健全全国社会保障模式弹性统一为主线,以加强社会保障网络信息化建设为基础,以提高社会保障统筹层次为重点,以衔接城乡二元社会保障制度为突破口,以建立健全社会保障均等化服务转移支付政策体系为支撑,最终实现"全民覆盖、弹性统一、服务均衡、流转自由、可持续发展"的社会保障制度。     

Using APIs for Data Collection on Social Media

This article discusses how social media research may benefit from social media companies making data available to researchers through their application programming interfaces (APIs). An API is a back-end interface through which third-party developers may connect new add-ons to an existing service. The API is also an interface for researchers to collect data off a given social media service for empirical analysis. Presenting a critical methodological discussion of the opportunities and challenges associated with quantitative and qualitative social media research based on APIs, this article highlights a number of general methodological issues to be dealt with when collecting and assessing data through APIs. The article further discusses the legal and ethical implications of empirical research using APIs for data collection.     

学术博客持续使用意愿的影响因素研究

以Bhattacherjee的ECT-IS模型为基础,整合体验价值这一关键概念,通过在线问卷调查从科学网博客社区搜集数据,利用基于PLS的结构方程模型,研究了学术博客持续使用意愿的影响因素。结果表明,ECTIS模型同样适用于学术博客情境。而体验价值对用户满意感产生不同程度的正向影响:使用者投资回报的影响最显著,其次是愉悦感和优质的服务,美感则不产生影响。     

基于社会网络视角的产业结构总体特征研究

针对当前产业结构研究的局限和不足,本文率先在该研究领域引入了社会网络的研究方法。通过社会网络与投入产出表的有机结合,提出了一种全新的、基于"关系"和"结构"视角的产业结构研究方法。利用我国2002年的投入产出数据和本文提出的研究方法,对我国产业结构的总体特征进行了实证研究。利用块模型分析方法,阐明了我国产业八大区块的范围和边界;刻画了我国产业总体结构的"中心化趋势",并对位于中心的产业进行了说明;提出了"最佳替代产业"和"自反性"产业区块的概念和实例,并分析了其在国家产业结构调整和优化过程中如何发挥各自的优势和作用。     

引入“在线社会网络”的三重螺旋创新系统模型研究

由Etzkowitz和laydesdorff提出的三重螺旋创新系统模型作为国家创新系统的重要基础理论,由于缺少对社会创新的重要角色——"用户"的关注而迫切需要改进。本文以"在线社会网络"这一"用户"聚集的平台为基础,以嵌入式方法在三重螺旋模型中引入"在线社会网络"要素,阐述了引入"在线社会网络"的三重螺旋模型的运行过程与机制,并提出了引入"在线社会网络"的三重螺旋创新计量算法,实现了创新理论中"用户"角色的明确界定与计量。     

新媒体传播对转发意愿及品牌态度的影响研究

传统传播环境下企业营销传播活动对用户品牌态度形成具有显著影响,但社会化媒体的发展极大地改变了企业营销传播的生态环境,现阶段企业的社会化媒体传播并未获得预期影响力,需要从理论上对企业社会化媒体传播的策略及其影响因素进行创新性研究。本文采用实验研究方法,基于企业传播信息内容主题、信息源、传播策略与用户再传播意愿和品牌态度间关系的理论假设,实证研究发现:企业社会化媒体传播对用户品牌态度有正向显著影响;信息内容主题类型、信息源、传播组合策略对用户再传播意愿有显著影响;用户再传播意愿对用户品牌态度的影响不显著等。研究结论丰富了企业社会化媒体传播的理论研究,对企业社会化媒体传播实践具有指导意义。     

消费者行为意向的前因与作用机理研究述评

在消费者行为研究领域,行为意向的前因及其作用机理研究一直备受关注。通过对典型研究成果的回顾发现,既有研究呈现出了一定的动态发展特征,且围绕三条主要线索展开:即以质量、价值、满意为主要前置变量;以理性行为等理论为基础;引入新变量或重塑既有模型。基于上述分析,提出了完善相关研究的建议。
