  • Exploring on-line societal risk perception for harmonious society measurement
    Journal of Systems Science and Systems Engineering, 2013
    Co-Authors: Xijin Tang
    Abstract:

    The nearly 30-year economic growth miracle brings the consequent tremendous poor-rich gap leading strong drives for social transformation in current China. Chinese top leaders have realized to increase the peoples’ income, improve quality of life and construct a “harmonious society” as key missions especially in recent 10 years. How to measure a harmonious society is one important topic as different measures may lead to different development policies. This paper outlines over 10 indices relevant to measure a harmonious society. Some are global indicators, while some are contributed by domestic researchers and arouse debates. Most of those indicators require conducting surveys on social attitudes under micro levels, which is always time consuming with problem of data quality. As Internet technology advances provide ways to record and disseminate fresh community ideas and thoughts conveniently, detecting topics or emotions from on-line public opinions is becoming a trend or one supplement way to overcome those data acquisition problems. This paper discusses one approach to on-line societal risk perception using hot search words and BBS posts. Such a trial aims to provide another way to societal risk perception different from those in traditional socio Psychology Studies. Challenges are also indicated.

  • Applying Search Words and BBS Posts to Societal Risk Perception and Harmonious Society Measurement
    2013 IEEE International Conference on Systems Man and Cybernetics, 2013
    Co-Authors: Xijin Tang
    Abstract:

    Current China is undergoing social transformation with economic miracle and emerging big poor-rich gap. Mission to a Harmonious Society has been promoted by Chinese top leaders. This paper briefly outlines several indicators to evaluate the harmony society. As a variety of Internet tools provides ways to record and disseminate fresh community opinions conveniently, mining of those kinds of public opinions is expected. This paper discusses one approach to societal risk perception using hot search words and BBS posts, which aims to provide another access to societal risk perception different from those in traditional socio Psychology Studies. Problems are also indicated.

  • How STRANGE are your study animals?
    Nature, 2020
    Co-Authors: Michael M. Webster, Christian Rutz
    Abstract:

    A new framework for animal-behaviour research will help to avoid sampling bias — ten years on from the call to widen the pool of human participants in Psychology Studies beyond the WEIRD.

  • Sport and Exercise Psychology Studies in Brazil: Performance or Health?
    Frontiers in psychology, 2019
    Co-Authors: Lenamar Fiorese, André Luiz Felix Rodacki, Nayara Malheiros Caruzzo, Caio Rosas Moreira, Andressa Ribeiro Contreira, Aline Mendes De Lima, Leonardo De Sousa Fortes, João Ricardo Nickenig Vissoci, Joice Mara Facco Stefanello
    Abstract:

    The low professional insertion of psychologists in Brazilian sports teams, as well as the Sport Psychology course being seldom offered in undergraduate Psychology courses, may reflect in the current scenario of scientific research in Brazil. It is still not clear what Graduate Programs (GPs) have adopted directions regarding the development of Studies in Sport and Exercise Psychology (SEP) research fields since an assessment or mapping of scientific knowledge production in this area has not yet been performed involving Exercise and Sport Science and Psychology GPs. This study aimed at investigating institutional research and their themes in SEP from these graduate programs. Studies were selected and retrieved from a national database (Sucupira Platform), that contains all registered researches from all Exercise and Sport Science (n=31) and Psychology (n=84) GPs in the country. Data were analyzed through R software using text mining techniques, latent semantic analysis, and K-means clustering. Results revealed that research involving SEP is predominantly being developed at Exercise and Sport Science GPs (n=171; p

Data were analyzed through R software using text mining techniques, latent semantic analysis, and K-means clustering. Results revealed that research involving SEP is predominantly being developed at Exercise and Sport Science GPs (n=171; p<0.01) in comparison to Psychology GPs (n=39), mostly located in the south and southeast regions of Brazil. This research has focused on the effects of physical exercise and quality of life, while Psychology GPs have analyzed sport as associated with health and education, as a way to promote social support and to study sports' psychological aspects. It was concluded that Exercise and Sport Science GPs had the most significant contribution to SEP. Investigations were focused on the interface of exercise with quality of life, health, and education, with gaps existing in programs advancing in the Studies on sports and performance.
