Research on farmers’ willingness to grow high-quality rice based on the TAM-TPB model: evidence from China by Bin Zhang, Yingshu Cai, Zhen Hu, Ning Xie, Jianfu Li, Jianfu Li

“…There are few studies to explore how professional grain farmers induce the planting intention of high-quality rice from the level of subjective psychological mechanism.MethodsBased on the Technology Acceptance Model-Planning Behavior Theoretical Framework (TAM-TPB), we used the survey data of 660 professional grain farmers in Jiangxi Province, China, and used the structural equation model to explore the influencing factors of the willingness of professional grain farmers to plant high-quality rice, and combined with the multi-group analysis method, we further discussed the differences between different groups.Results and discussionThe results indicate that the willingness of occupational grain farmers to cultivate high-quality rice is primarily positively influenced by perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness, behavioral attitudes, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control, with perceived behavioral control having the most significant impact, followed by perceived usefulness. …”

(Non)specific interaction patterns in families raising a child with disability or chronic illness: a latent profile analysis by Ariadna Łada-Maśko, Urszula Sajewicz-Radtke, Paweł Jurek, Paweł Jurek, Michał Olech, Bartosz M. Radtke, Małgorzata Lipowska

“…To assess interaction patterns within families, the following measures were used: the Questionnaire of Relationships with Siblings to evaluate relationships between healthy adolescents and their siblings, the Parentification Questionnaire for Youth to measure emotional and instrumental parentification, the KidScreen-27 to assess quality of life, the Parental Attitude Scale-2 to assess parental attitudes, and the Family Rating Scales to evaluate family dynamics, including the structure and quality of family interactions. Latent Profile Analysis (LPA) was used to analyze data.ResultsWe identified two latent profiles: “Strained Families” profile, which featured lower-quality family interactions with parents displaying greater rejection, inconsistent, and overdemanding attitudes, and the “Resilient Families” profile reflected balanced functioning with greater cohesion and flexibility. …”
