“…While in the higher administrative level of the city, the negative impact of air pollution on the floating population's settlement intention is smaller, and the role of air quality also varies among different regions. Our findings are also consistent with those Wang et al [47], who found that city administrative level and air quality play an important role in shaping the willingness of hukou conversion for migrants with settlement intention. The findings of this paper provide new empirical evidence for research on the settlement intention of floating population.…”

“…They found that the willingness to settle by the floating population in southern Jiangsu with a higher level of socioeconomic development was higher than that in northern Jiangsu with a lower level of socioeconomic development [46]. The spatial location of cities also has a significant impact on the settlement intention of the floating population, and show obvious regional differences [47].…”

Serious air pollution has caused widespread concern in Chinese society in recent years. China’s floating population plays an important role in China’s economic development, and the determinants of the floating population’s settlement intentions have attracted increasing attention. Using the 2017 China Migrants Dynamic Survey Data (CMDS) and the satellite grid data of global PM2.5 concentration as well as city-level data, this study investigated the influences of air quality on migrants’ settlement intention, in particular, individual heterogeneity and city characteristics. Using an instrumental variable to correct for endogeneity, we found that air pollution has a significant negative effect on the settlement intentions of China’s floating population. Migrants who were older, better educated and with poorer health are more sensitive to air pollution with regard to settlement intention. Meanwhile, settlement intentions are also influenced by individual adaptability: Respondents with better air quality in their hometown are more sensitive to air pollution. Poor air pollution has not weakened the attractiveness of Tier-1 cities to the floating population, nor has the administrative level of a city.

“…These 638 CRNs were working at 58 cities across China, most commonly in first-tier cities (49.37%) or emerging first-tier cities (30.41%) by definition of city tiers in China (Wang et al, 2021) (Table 2). In other words, these CRNs were mostly working in the largest Chinese cities with the highest socio-economic development level and future potential.…”

“…Yicai Global, a Chinese news source, categorizes Chinese cities into six tiers using the five measures below: concentration of commercial resources; city’s pivotability; citizen vitality; lifestyle diversity; and flexibility in the future. The Yicai classification resulted in: 4 Tier 1 cities, 15 emerging Tier 1 cities, 30 Tier 2 cities, 70 Tier three cities, 90 Tier 4 cities and 129 Tier 5 cites (China Briefing, 2017; Wang et al, 2021).…”

Background The clinical trials industry in China has enjoyed robust growth; the demand for qualified personnel to conduct clinical trials with higher quality has increased. The Clinical Research Nurse has emerged as a new workforce in China. Aims This study aimed to examine the current work status of Clinical Research Nurses in China and to investigate their competencies in knowledge and behavior associated with this profession. Methods An online survey was analyzed. The current work status of Clinical Research Nurses in China was characterized. In addition, their competencies were self-assessed across nine competency categories and the “contribution to science” domain, based on the International Association of Clinical Research Nurses Scope and Standards of Practice. Results A total of 638 eligible questionnaires were included in the final analysis. Of whom, 98.28% (627/638) were females. The mean age was 35 years (range: 22–64 years). Over 80% of whom were working at the largest Chinese cities and the majority (78.2%) held a Bachelor’s degree in nursing. The average time of clinical research experience was 5.67 years. Three quarters of the 638 had an annual income of <150,000 Yuan RMB. The average weekly working time was 45.46 h; clinical trial-related work accounted for 62.68% of their workload. There were some gaps between the Clinical Research Nurses’ self-assessed competencies in knowledge and behavior, with the widest gaps along the ethical principles, leadership and professional development, protocol compliance, and document management categories. Conclusion This is the first large-scale survey of Clinical Research Nurses in China. Our results profile this emerging workforce as a population of young, moderately trained/experienced, predominantly female nurses working in the largest Chinese cities. They performed well on most knowledge/behavior parameters; still, gaps exist. Therefore, there is a pressing need to enhance professional education and training for Clinical Research Nurses in China.

Small remote communities in the Nordic countries face unique challenges due to their geographical isolation, limited resources, and sparse population. The latter is affected by migration, which can have both positive and negative implications for communities’ development, and so understanding the factors influencing migration patterns is essential for ensuring balanced regional development. This paper focuses on the population trends over the last two centuries in the Faroe Islands; more specifically, in the two small remote communities Hvannasund and Viðareiði in the Northern Islands. The overall theoretical framework applied is the push-pull migration concept. By examining the push-pull factors that drive migration patterns in these communities, the paper explores the impact on socio-economic development, and by analysing the interplay between these factors, this study aims to provide insights into the dynamics of movements and their implications for the development of small remote communities. The main findings are that economic factors are the main push-pull factors to explain the population changes in the investigated communities, while the social/demographic, political, and environmental factors to a lesser degree can explain the fluctuations but impact the more linear trends over time.
