    Abstract: This study examines the growth trajectory of the psychological well-being of Taiwanese adolescents from early to late adolescence. Under the competitive educational system in Taiwan, family and school context are two major loci accounting for the developmental outcome. Data are taken from the Taiwan Youth Project, which is a longitudinal panel study of 2696 students since the year 2000. The study uses individual depressive symptoms as the dependent variable. Family cohesion, family educational strategy as well as classroom effects at school are chosen to indicate the potential contextual influence. Using the latent growth curve method, the analysis confirms that family and school factors do produce different effects over time. Family context is salient at the initial status, but not for subsequent development. Class cohesion as well as adolescents' perceptions of unfairness by teachers determine the depressive level, the linear slope and the non-linear quadratic growth curve. In other words, once the adolescent gets used to junior high school, the school context tends to exert more pronounced effects. Further analysis on gender comparisons indicates that selective family and school effects are more pronounced among females, with a greater degree of depressive symptoms over time. The article concludes that while family and school have different impacts on the growth curve of individual depressive symptoms, the school context exerts salient effects over an adolescent's life course.

    Crime reporting behavior and Black’s Behavior of Law

    Abstract: This study seeks to extend the theoretical explanation of victims’ crime reporting behavior to a social-structural framework by partially using Black’s Behavior of Law theory in a non-western context. Black’s theory of law postulated that police reporting varied according to five aspects of social life: stratification, morphology, culture, organization and social control. Drawing on the most recent victimization survey conducted in Taiwan, this study focuses on victim reporting of assault, robbery and larceny. Some findings replicated the expectations proposed by Black’s propositions, but others were contrary to expectations. Female robbery victims reported to the police approximately three times more than males. The plausible reason might involve the notion of relational distance taken from Black’s morphology perspective. It was also found that the severity of infraction was positively related to crime reporting. The coexistence of a strong effect of the variable ‘crime seriousness’ and the statistical significance of Black’s social dimensions might imply that Black’s theory has value in forming the broad social context of social action but is insufficient as an explanation of individual behavior.

    “Foreign Brides” Meet Ethnic Politics in Taiwan

    Abstract: A great number of women from China, Vietnam, and Indonesia recently arrived in Taiwan to marry men of lower social strata. Such an unusual pattern of migration has stimulated debates about the status and the citizenship of the new arrivals. This study analyzes Taiwanese responses toward these marriage migrants by using a national survey conducted in 2004. Three aspects of restrictive attitudes were tapped concerning these newcomers: (1) rights to work; (2) access to public health insurance; and (3) full citizenship. Immigrants from China were most opposed, compared to women with other origins (Southeast Asia, Japan, Europe, and the US). The seemingly unrelated regression estimation regression results do not support the split labor market hypotheses, as marriage migrants do not appear to be economic threats toward members of the lower classes. In contrast, ethnic nationalism plays a key role in determining the natives’ restrictive attitudes. The case of Taiwan represents a special genre, where ethnic politics selectively arouses the social rejection of women immigrants of certain origins.

    Testing importance weighting: Lessons from the quality of life literature
    Wiley ; 2023
    In:  International Social Science Journal
    Details
    In: International Social Science Journal, Wiley
    Abstract: Marsh and Scalas (2018) proposed a taxonomic structural equation modelling approach to test the individually importance weighted‐average models (IWAMs) in their article published in Structural Equation Modeling: A Multidisciplinary Journal 25 : 137–158. As Marsh and Scalas (2018) pointed out, IWAMs could be found in many research areas, including self‐concept, job satisfaction and quality of life (QOL) research. Based on the findings of their proposed approach, Marsh and Scalas (2018) argued that importance weights do not make a difference. The purpose of this paper is to assess the applicability of the approach developed by Marsh and Scalas (2018) and their conclusion that importance weights do not make a difference in the area of QOL, specifically subjective well‐being, research. In the research area of QOL, IWAMs have been discussed often under the topic of domain importance weighting. Findings from an analysis of the Panel Study of Income Dynamics’ Wellbeing and Daily Life Supplement data show that different domain importance weighting methods, based on different underlying (within‐domain vs between/across‐domain) perspectives, produced different results leading to different conclusions. Although the approach for testing IWAMs developed by Marsh and Scalas (2018) offered several methodological advances and strengths, its applicability to the evaluation of domain importance weighting in QOL studies is limited by its underlying (within‐domain) perspective, its assumption that domain importance can be accurately and precisely measured, and the possibility of the small effect size of domain importance. Marsh and Scalas’ (2018) findings that importance weights do not make a difference should be interpreted with caution.

    La population chinoise face à la règle de l'enfant unique

    Abstract: La population chinoise face à la règle de l'enfant unique. La politique de l'enfant unique en Chine dure depuis dix ans, mais son extrême impopularité a obligé les dirigeants à l'appliquer de façon plus souple, surtout dans les campagnes. Les cadres chargés de l'imposer sont eux-mêmes peu enclins à donner le bon exemple en limitant leur progéniture. Ce qui ne les empêche pas de recourir à la contrainte et occasionnellement à la violence, car ils sont tenus à ne pas dépasser le quota de naissances alloué à leur localité, leur quartier ou leur entreprise. Il est rare que les couples résistent ouvertement à une règle qu'ils détestent, mais ils font l'impossible pour s'y soustraire : des paysannes enceintes s'enfuient de leur village pour pouvoir mener leur grossesse à son terme, des maris répudient leur femme afin de conserver une chance d'avoir un fils lorsque l'enfant unique est une fille (un fils est la principale, souvent la seule assurance-vieillesse à la campagne), l'infanticide qui avait à peu près disparu prend des proportions inquiétantes. La Chine n'en est pas moins contrainte d'accélérer artificiellement le rythme de la transition démographique (ce qu'elle fait depuis une bonne quinzaine d'années avec plus de succès que la plupart des pays qui se trouvent dans une situation comparable) : la continuité avec l'époque maoïste réside dans les méthodes auxquelles elle a recours, non dans les fins qu'elle poursuit.
