Although there is evidence that was gender inequality in China's education system the 1980s, literature China has mixed on improvements educational attainment over past three decades. Some suggest still severe; others report progress. We seek to understand progress made (if any) reducing since 1980s. To meet this goal, we use a meta‐analysis approach which provides new quantitative review of relatively large volume empirical differentials. This article analyzes differences across both time...
Microplastic pollution has emerged as a global environmental concern. As filter-feeding organisms, marine mussels are particularly vulnerable to microplastics. Moreover, phthalic acid esters (PAEs) known leach from microplastics under various conditions. Among PAEs, bis(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is common endocrine disruptor. We investigated the effects of and plasticizers on reproductive function female mussel Mytilus coruscus. The results revealed that exposure DEHP high-density...
We present results of a randomized trial testing the impact on academic outcomes providing free eyeglasses to junior high school students in poor rural area western China. find that prescription approximately halves dropout rates over year among who did not own at baseline. Effects are mirrored by improvements student performance standardized exams math and aspirations for further schooling.
Purpose.: We assessed the prevalence and predictors of inaccurate refractive error among rural refractionists in western China. Methods.: A subset primary school children with visual acuity (VA) ≤6/12 ≥1 eye, undergoing subjective refinement by local after cycloplegic autorefraction an ongoing population-based study, received repeat refraction university optometrists for quality control. Results.: Among 502 (mean age 10.5 years, 53.2% girls), independent poor (inaccurate ≥1.0 diopter [D]) 21...
This article exploits a randomised controlled trial to evaluate the impact of an intensive, short-term inservice teacher training programme on performance English teachers in Beijing migrant schools and their students. The results show no significant impacts either or student test scores thus imply ineffectiveness programmes performance.

Villages were randomly assigned either control group or one three...
To assess the effect of free eyeglasses provision on visual acuity among middle school students in northwestern rural China.Among 31 schools randomly selected from 47 China, were allocated by to one two interventions: (intervention group), and prescriptions given only parents (control group). The main outcome this study is uncorrected after 9 months, adjusted for baseline acuity.Among 2095 schools, 995 (47.5%) failed screening, 515 (51.8%, 15 schools) which assigned intervention group, with...

Using a survey of 19,977 children in two provinces, this paper explores the prevalence, correlates and potential consequences poor vision among China's vast but understudied rural areas. We find that 24% sample students suffer from reduced uncorrected visual acuity either eye 16% both eyes. Poor is significantly correlated with individual, parental family characteristics, modest magnitudes for all home province grade level. The results also suggest possible adverse impact on academic...
