“…Information and communication technologies (ICTs) have helped transform human societies and contributed to the progress of health, education, and various other sectors ( Yen et al, 2019 ; Sohail et al, 2021c ; Usman et al, 2021a , b ). In recent times, it has become a pertinent question whether ICTs have any impact on the individual personality or not.…”

Subjective well-being is defined as how happy and satisfied a person is in his life. To date, among the significant determinants of subjective well-being, national income is considered an important one. However, not much focus has been paid to other determinants of subjective well-being, such as education and information and communication technologies (ICTs). Therefore, this study aims to investigate the short- and long-run impact of education and ICTs on subjective well-being in China over the period 1996–2020. To empirically investigate the nexus, we have employed bounds testing approach to cointegration and error correction modeling. The long-run estimates attached to education are positive and significant, implying that a rise in average years of schooling help increases the level of happiness. However, the long-run estimate attached to the internet is significant and positive in the happiness model. As far as the interaction term between education and the internet is concerned, the estimate is positive and significant. In short-run, the estimates of education, ICTs, and an interaction term between them are also significantly positive.

“…In recent years, some studies on urban street networks have been conducted by using OSMnx. Yen et al used circuity as one of the metrics to analyze three street network patterns, namely, walkable, bikeable, and drivable, in Phnom Penh, Cambodia [28]. Their results suggested that urban central areas are more favorable for walking and biking than peripheral districts.…”

The relief degree of land surface (RDLS) was often calculated to describe the topographic features of a region. It is a significant factor in designing urban street networks. However, existing studies do not clarify how RDLS affects the distribution of urban street networks. We used a Python package named OSMnx to extract the street networks of different cities in China. The street complexity metrics information (i.e., street grain, connectedness, circuity, and street network orientation entropy) were obtained and analyzed statistically. The results indicate that street network exhibits more complexity in regions with high RDLS. Further analysis of the correlation between RDLS and street network complexity metrics indicates that RDLS presents the highest correlation with street network circuity; that is, when RDLS is higher, the routes of an urban street network is more tortuous, and the additional travel costs for urban residents is higher. This study enriches and expands research on street networks in China, providing a reference value for urban street network planning.

“…Chetley et al, 2006 study denoted that the internet is capable of improving healthcare and health outcomes in developing economies. Additionally, it can ease communication between healthcare experts and patients ( Bankole et al, 2013 ; Yen et al, 2019 ; Sohail et al, 2021a ). ICT helps in improving public utilities, efficiency, and management of governments.…”

How to mitigate greenhouse gas emission and achieve human development remain major sustainability issues, particularly in China. Empirical research on the effects of climate warming and social change on human health and wellbeing is quite fragmented. This study examines the impact of environmental issues and social changes on health and human wellbeing using a time series data of China from 1991 to 2020. Findings show that environmental issues have a negative impact on health and human wellbeing in long run. While the internet is a form of social change that tends to improve health and human wellbeing in the long run. FDI exerts a positive effect on human health, but it does not improve wellbeing in the long run. In contrast, financial development does not improve human health but it has a significant positive impact on wellbeing in the long run. Our empirical insights have important implications for achieving human wellbeing through the pursuit of environmental sustainability and social change.
