Resilience and Coping Strategies during COVID-19: Perspectives from Agricultural Enterprise Farmers
Authors: Chumpanya Jiraporn , Panpakdee Chaiteera
Published: February 2025

COVID-19 posed threats to Thailand, particularly affecting agricultural enterprises. This study examines coping strategies of the Khok Sawang Agricultural Enterprise (KSAE) in Khon Kaen province in response to disturbances of the COVID-19 pandemic. A purposive sample of 75 members from the KSAE was analyzed using a mixed-methods approach. Data were collected through semi-structured questionnaires and in-depth interviews. Quantitative data were computed using SPSS, qualitative insights were derived through thematic analysis. The findings indicate that respondents faced considerable challenges across four domains: production and trade, food security, health, and income. Specifically, 86.7% reported income losses, 82.7% indicated increased mental health stress, and 70% reported reduced access to healthcare services. Market pressures, rising production costs, and decreased consumer demand collectively resulted in a 30% decline in production. To cope with these disruptions, respondents adopted diverse coping strategies. In terms of production, farmers reduced working hours, implemented daily wage cuts, and adopted digital platforms to facilitate direct sales. Health-related strategies included engagement in vaccination schemes and enhancing social networks to provide emotional support. This study underscores the resilience in navigating the extensive disturbances of COVID-19. It emphasizes the need for integrated policy frameworks that enhance farmers’ resilience to deal with future crises.
Regional Cultural Differences, Financial Structure and Economic Growth Efficiency: Theory and Chinese Experience
Authors: GUO YATING , Rosland Anitha , Ishak Suryati , Senan Mohamad Khair Afham Muhamad
Published: February 2025

Against the backdrop of profound changes in the global economic landscape and intensifying regional development imbalances, exploring the impact of regional cultural differences on the evolution of financial structure and economic growth efficiency has important theoretical value and practical significance for promoting regional coordinated development and high-quality economic transformation. Based on the theory of institutional embeddedness and financial development theory, this study constructs a theoretical analysis framework that includes cultural differences, financial structure and economic growth efficiency. Using China's provincial panel data from 2000 to 2023 and adopting spatial econometric methods, this paper systematically examines the transmission mechanism by which regional cultural differences affect economic growth efficiency by influencing the choice of financial structure. The study found that: first, regional cultural differences significantly affect the marketization degree of financial structure, and regions with stronger risk aversion tendencies are more dependent on bank-dominated financial structures; second, there is a significant spatial spillover effect between financial structure and economic growth efficiency, and a financial structure with a higher degree of marketization helps to improve regional economic growth efficiency; third, regional cultural differences have an indirect effect on economic growth efficiency by influencing the choice of financial structure, and this effect shows significant heterogeneity at different stages of regional development. This study provides new theoretical perspectives and policy implications for deepening financial supply-side structural reform and promoting regional coordinated development.

Authors: Huang Xiuping , Chen Kaili , Zhe Shuyang , Jin Yu , Li Yue
Published: February 2025

Alternative health information seeking is an important way for older adults to access health support. In this study, we took college students who had conducted online health information substitution search for the elderly at home as the research subjects, and used the extended Comprehensive Model of Information Seeking (CMIS) as the theoretical framework to explore the behavioral characteristics and influencing factors of college students' online health information substitution search for the elderly at home through the questionnaire method (N=321), with a view to providing new ideas for the dissemination of health information to the elderly population. The study found that the content and search platforms of college students' alternative health information searching for the elderly at home are relatively basic; the influence of health awareness pressure on alternative health information searching behavior is not significant, and there may be other potential emotional mediators as well as insufficient behavioral internal motivation; filial piety culture influences the college students' alternative health information searching behavior through the utility of the information carrier; self-efficacy is an intrinsic motivation for intergenerational feedback; and the influence of self-efficacy is a key factor in college students' alternative health information searching behavior. Self-efficacy, as an intrinsic motivation for intergenerational feedback, is also an important factor influencing online health information alternative search behavior.
Editorial: What about the information?
Authors: Li Zhenyi
Published: February 2025

When faced with a major decision, we ask ourselves: what should we do? In the field of health communication, the most "headache" question in the past two years is: what should we do with health communication? More precisely, what should we do with information? Why? Before the pandemic, most research on health communication focused on the exploration of transmission channels and the evaluation of communication effectiveness. During the pandemic, we have seen all kinds of misinformation and disinformation flying all over the place, and these bad information are "self-taught", especially using traditional, modern, high-tech, and even artificial intelligence channels to disseminate. This makes us deeply realize that in the past, we thought that information was correct, accurate, scientific and reliable in the field of health communication, and this should be a question mark for granted.

Social media engagement of citizens in developed city during the Covid-19 pandemic
Authors: Huang Junyang , Gao Zhenghan , Liu Jiatai
Published: February 2025

During the Covid-19 lockdown period, the physical barriers of large, developed cities have affected the citizens' lives who have long relied on Internet technology to maintain the operation of social order. In this dilemma, with the help of social media, individual citizens or groups taking the community as a unit act spontaneously to carry out group purchase of goods, deployment of epidemic prevention and control, mutual assistance among citizens. The semi-public sphere built by WeChat group chat has become a social media platform to maintain citizen practice. In this semi-public sphere, there are interwoven with non-benefit obtaining citizen opinion leaders and passively participating citizen individuals. Citizen opinion leaders have expanded the generation and extension of temporary, micro and spontaneous citizen actions in the semi-public sphere. Citizen actions and citizen mutual assistance have alleviated the material shortage and mental anxiety of the public in the Covid-19 lockdown. At the same time, the semi-public sphere formed by relying on social media such as WeChat is not developed for all citizens. The digital exclusivity presented by social media makes it difficult for many people with low digital contact (the elderly, the disabled, etc.) to obtain the right to maintain their own interests in the practice of citizen action to a certain extent. Although social media can accurately obtain the personalized needs of different users by relying on digital technology and big data algorithms, the physical space barrier caused by the Covid-19 lockdown has further blocked the opportunities for low digital contact people to learn social media, widened the digital divide, and further unbalanced and non-universal citizen participation in the semi-public sphere.
In 1911, Baoding epidemic prevention propaganda research
Authors: Wang Luyao
Published: February 2025

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the plague broke out in Northeast China, and Baoding was particularly valued by the Qing court for its epidemic prevention and control due to its special political status and transportation status. In January 1911, after the outbreak of the epidemic in Zhili, Baoding quickly established an epidemic prevention mechanism with the Epidemic Prevention Bureau as the core. Until April 13, 1911, the Baoding Provisional Epidemic Prevention Bureau was officially abolished, and the epidemic prevention work of nearly three months was declared to be over. Based on the 1911 Baoding plague prevention and control propaganda, this paper uses newspapers and periodicals as the main materials, and discusses the consideration of public opinion propaganda by local governments in major health events in the late Qing Dynasty, and how to achieve effective communication with the general public, so as to achieve the purpose of the smooth development of the epidemic prevention policy.

The Media Discourse Construction of ‘A Community of Health for All’
Authors: Xu Jing , Jiang Xueying
Published: February 2025

President Xi Jinping's concept of a global community of health for all has strategically guided China's participation in global health governance in the new era. Taking relevant reports from the People's Daily as a research sample and employing corpus and semantic network analysis methods, this research proposes to focus on four dimensions: discourse generation, corpus construction, expression innovation, and discourse power enhancement, to form an integrated construction path for the media discourse of the global community of health for all. The study finds that in terms of discourse context, the concept inherits the internationalist, egalitarian, and solidarity discourses from the history of China's health diplomacy. In terms of discourse collocation, the reports use the themes of community, epidemic prevention and control, solidarity and cooperation, and the initiative concept. In terms of discourse network, the reports reflect China's globalist and multilateral stance, shaping the image of a contributor to global health governance. In terms of discourse practice, the reports, on the one hand, connect with domestic epidemic prevention and control policies, showing the transformation of China's health diplomacy, and, on the other hand, break the Western discourse monopoly, surpassing the Western-dominated health discourse system.
Research on the Health Communication of Health and Epidemic Prevention Policies and Knowledge in Modern Newspapers and Magazines
Authors: Liang Yufan
Published: February 2025

Newspapers and magazines, as the most important means of communication in modern China, are important media for disseminating scientific knowledge on health and epidemic prevention to the public. As a landmark publication of the Commercial Press, the "The Eastern Miscellany" faithfully recorded the historical changes of modern China from its inception in 1904 to its final publication in 1948. It is known as the "database of modern Chinese history" and has had a profound impact on the dissemination of medical and health knowledge, the establishment of social public health concepts, and the promotion of the construction of a national medical and health system in modern society. It has left abundant first-hand literature materials for research on the dissemination of modern Chinese health science knowledge and has extremely high academic value. The overall process of health and epidemic prevention policies and knowledge dissemination in "The Eastern Miscellany" presents four stages: the initial stage of publication (1904-1909), the development period (1909-1919), the mature period (1920-1941), and the declining period (1943-1948). In terms of dissemination content, the publication of health and epidemic prevention policies and scientific knowledge in "The Eastern Miscellany" is rich, mainly divided into two aspects: epidemic prevention and research, and public health construction, involving epidemic prevention laws and regulations, traffic quarantine, environmental health, rural health, health movements, and many other contents. Through the study of the dissemination of health and epidemic prevention scientific knowledge in the "The Eastern Miscellany", not only can we clarify the dissemination and development of health and epidemic prevention scientific knowledge in modern China from the perspective of mass media, but we can also see the important role and role played by newspapers and magazines in the dissemination of health and epidemic prevention scientific knowledge in modern China, and reflect the historical changes of modern Chinese medical society.

How does the degree of anthropomorphism of health chatbots affect the public's willingness to seek help from them? Empirical research using HBM
Authors: Zhang Tao , Cui Yixin , Li Pengxiang
Published: February 2025

Currently, health chatbots have a wide range of applications in the medical field. However, most of the related research centers around self-diagnosis at the user's physical level, while the psychological level is rarely discussed. Unlike real doctors, health chatbots are more accessible, more convenient and less stigmatizing. Consequently, this study develops a structural equation model on the degree of anthropomorphism of chatbots and willingness to ask for help from them based on the health belief model, the technology acceptance model, and the privacy computing theory. It contributes to complementing the lack of research on human-robot communication in health communication. The results show that an increase in the degree of chatbot anthropomorphism significantly increases users' perceived benefits and reduces privacy concerns, thus increasing their willingness to seek help from it. Interestingly, increased anthropomorphism enhances users' perceived severity and perceived susceptibility, which may be due to the specificity of mental health problems, where the more the chatbot resembles a real person, the more likely it is to aggravate users' tension and anxiety. This study also found that Chinese users generally have a low level of acceptance of psychological counseling chatbots, and chatbots are not their first choice for help when experiencing psychological problems. In the future, the professionalism of the psychological counseling function of health chatbots can be further improved, and at the same time well publicized for the benefit of more people troubled by psychological problems.
Enhancing Human Cognition: The Role of Technological Integration in Cognitive Upgrading
Authors: LYU She , ZHOU Shuo
Published: February 2025

This research aims to systematically investigate the concept of cognitive upgrading through the integration of technological tools with human cognition. Two experimental studies are proposed to examine how technology impacts cognitive abilities when integrated into cognitive processes, and the outcomes of offloading cognitive load to technology to engage in higher-level thinking. Based on theoretical frameworks of cognitive load theory, cultivation theory, cybernetics and the extended self, four hypotheses are formulated predicting enhanced cognitive performance and a symbiotic relationship between humans and machines. The experimental designs employ random assignment and within-subjects comparisons to measure the effects of technology on cognitive tasks. The expected findings suggest cognitive upgrading results in improved cognitive functioning, efficiency and a feedback loop advancing both human and technological capabilities. The research seeks to advance understanding of cognitive augmentation while informing cognitive technology development and policy.
The Rhythm, Routinization, and Reroutinization:A New Perspective on the Health Practices of Rural Residents and Their Generation in the Context of Rural Revitalization
Authors: Chen Yu , Zhang Yue
Published: February 2025

In this field study, it is found people in the three villages in the southwest part of Shandong Province have developed a practice of jogging and speed-walking on one side and eating edible wild herbs on the other in recent years as a way to keep healthy. Essentially this routinized daily life habit is the result of the transition of the health consciousness guiding their health practice from the traditional concept of “when old, one needs to be less physically active”, to the new concept of” when old, one still needs to keep some physical activities”. This forms their new daily life routine.
The “spin-offs” of people's traditionally routinised health practices have then been re-routinised. The sense of health practice of ‘living longer but moving less’ contained in the traditional routine daily life has a strong endogenous power to produce daily health practice. We should believe in and encourage this endogenous force and maintain optimistic expectations for the self-health practices of rural older people.
Linking Pathways from Perceived Absolute Risk and Social Support to Female Regular Health Screening: Integrated with Social Cognitive Theory Model
Authors: Sun Huiwen , Li Zhenyi
Published: February 2025

The increasing incidence of cancer among women of childbearing age has emerged as a significant health crisis, necessitating urgent attention from both individuals and societal medical systems. Cancer-related screening and prevention strategies are prevalent public health responses to this challenge. This study integrates the Social Cognitive Theory (SCT) with the Health Belief Model (HBM) and Self-Determination Theory (SDT) to examine the psychological and behavioral factors influencing health outcomes. Specifically, it investigates how perceived absolute risk, self-efficacy, self-regulation, social support, and health screening behaviors interrelate, focusing on their mutual reinforcement in the context of female health regulation. Addressing a gap in existing research on health behavior change in a sustainable loop, this study employs a nationally representative online survey with 904 female participants. Data were analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), revealing that the integrated model exhibited a good fit and that all five hypotheses were supported. The findings emphasizing the importance of psychological and behavioral impacts on public health behaviors.
Теология Предания в Католической Церкви: вклад Ива Конгара
Authors: Матич З. , Петрович П.
Published: February 2025

В исследовании авторы довольно полно представляют богословие Предания римско-католического богослова Ива Конгара, который своими сочинениями и личным присутствием в качестве эксперта оказал большое влияние на решения II Ватиканского собора. Взаимоотношения Предания и преданий — одна из важнейших исследовательских тем, занимавших кардинала. Интерес к этой теме был обусловлен экуменической и внутренней потребностью Католической Церкви. Учение о Предании Ива Конгара сосредоточено на смысловой триаде: Писание — Предание — Церковь.

In the article, the authors present quite fully the theology of the Tradition of the Roman Catholic theologian Yves Congar, who, through his writings and personal presence as an expert, had a great influence on the decisions of the Second Vatican Council. The relationship between Tradition and tradition is one of the Cardinal’s most important research topics. The interest in this topic was driven by the ecumenical and inner need of the Catholic Church. The teaching of Tradition by Yves Congar focuses on the semantic triad: Scripture — Tradition — Church.
О некоторых вызовах современной литургической практики
Authors: Милошевич Н.
Published: February 2025

Последние сорок лет Сербская Православная Церковь все активнее вливается в общественную жизнь. Этот процесс происходит одновременно с литургическим обновлением и с появлением различных новых обычаев. В этой работе рассматриваются два недавно введенных обычая — освящение и публичное сжигание бадняка накануне праздника Рождества Христова и плавание за Крестом в день Богоявления, а также все более распространяющееся буквальное применение положения устава о совершении Литургии Преждеосвященных Даров в вечерние часы. Исследовав указанные темы, автор делает вывод, что действия, изначально направленные на то, чтобы евангельская весть легче воспринималась современниками, в действительности приводят к противоположному результату.

Over the past forty years, the Serbian Orthodox Church has been increasingly involved in public life. This process takes place simultaneously with the liturgical renewal and the emergence of various new customs. This work examines two recently introduced customs — the consecration and public burning of badnjak on Christmas Eve and swimming behind the Cross on Epiphany Day, as well as the increasingly widespread literal application of the provision of the charter on the celebration of the Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts in the evening hours. After examining these topics, the author concludes that efforts initially aimed at making the gospel message easier for contemporaries actually lead to the opposite result.

Dennett, etc. The article offers a theological perspective on this discussion, as well as a number of ideas that could be useful for ongoing scientific, philosophical and theological research in this area.
Возникновение экклезиологии как самостоятельной богословской дисциплины
Authors: Йованович З.
Published: February 2025

Цель данной статьи — указать на связь между появлением экклезиологии как самостоятельного раздела догматического богословия, с одной стороны, и феноменом маргинализации Евхаристии и усиления институционализма в теологии и практике средневекового католицизма — с другой. Пренебрежение значимостью Евхаристии и институционализм создали долгосрочные проблемы в жизни Церкви и положили начало обсуждению большого количества фундаментальных экклезиологических тем, инициировали появление многочисленных дискуссий в период позднего Средневековья и Реформации и привели к стандартизированному включению отдельных глав по экклезиологии во все систематические изложения христианского учения.

The present paper aims on the one hand at describing the possible connection between the emergence of ecclesiology as an independent discipline of dogmatic theology, and the phenomenon of the marginalization of the importance of the Eucharist and the institutionalism in the theology and practice of medieval Roman Catholic Church on the other. The failure to give proper attention to the importance of the Eucharist and growing institutionalism caused some long reaching problems for the Church’s life, evoked discussions of many fundamental ecclesiological topics and initiated the emergence of numerous treatises during the Middle Ages and the Reformation, and finally led to the inclusion of separate chapters on ecclesiology in almost all systematic presentations of the Christian doctrine.
Нужно ли спасать иконическую онтологию от платонизма? Об одном прочтении иконической онтологии св. Максима Исповедника у И. Зизиуласа
Authors: Джого Д.
Published: February 2025

В статье рассматривается тема эсхатологии и иконической онтологии в православном богословии. Поводом к обсуждению служит комментарий прп. Максима Исповедника на объяснение литургического символизма в корпусе Ареопагитик. Митрополит Иоанн Зизиулас рассматривает позицию Ареопагитик и Максима Исповедника как платоническое влияние, входящее в противоречие с библейским восприятием как богослужения, так и в целом эсхатологии, и нуждающееся в корректировке. Автор статьи разбирает проблему «платонического» влияния на христианскую литургическую символику и иконическую онтологию и гносеологию, а также проблему редукции иконической онтологии св. Максима к «хронологическому» аспекту.

The article discusses the topic of eschatology and iconic ontology in Orthodox theology. The reason for the discussion is St. Maximus the Confessor’s commentary on the explanation of liturgical symbolism in the corpus Areopagiticus. Metropolitan John Zizioulas considers the position of the Areopagite and Maximus the Confessor as a platonic influence that contradicts the biblical perception of both worship and eschatology in general, and needs to be adjusted. The author examines the problem of the «platonic» influence on Christian liturgical symbolism and iconic ontology and epistemology, as well as the problem of reducing Maxim’s iconic ontology to a «chronological» aspect.

EVENTUAIS VIOLAÇÕES DA PUBLICIDADE E DE OUTROS PRINCÍPIOS DO MODELO CONSTITUCIONAL DO PROCESSO CIVIL PELO JULGAMENTO VIRTUAL E PLENÁRIO VIRTUAL.
Authors: Ferreira Guilherme Richena
Published: February 2025

Publicity is an essential principle in a Democratic State under the Rule of Law, republican in nature, where, through the mechanisms of checks and balances, the 'branches' of government constrain one another.

Publicity, as a democratic element, goes beyond this, as it allows for the exercise of control over the limitation of state powers by both the citizens and the government itself.

The purpose of this article is to didactically analyze the concept of “publicity of procedural acts” based on the study of the Federal Constitution, examining its functions and limitations, and then analyzing it under the perspective of the Civil Procedure Code.

After such analyses, we will examine the so-called 'virtual plenary' within the brazilian Supreme Court, and the concepts of 'electronic trial sessions' and ‘recorded oral arguments’, in order to conclude, at the end of the article, whether there has been a violation of the publicity of procedural acts as a result of Resolution No. 591 of September 23, 2024, by the National Justice Council (CNJ).
