“… 49 , 50 Studies have demonstrated that perceived social support effectively enhances the cognitive prowess of middle-aged and older individuals, thereby favorably impacting their cognitive health information comprehension and accurate application of health knowledge. 51 In turn, enhanced health literacy contributes to an improved capacity for middle-aged and older individuals to receive social support. The frequency of media contact positively correlates with an individual’s ability to comprehend perceived social support, thereby augmenting social information acquisition and interaction among middle-aged and older individuals, 52 subsequently enhancing health literacy.…”

Objective To understand the status of media exposure, social support, self-efficacy, and health literacy among middle-aged and older adults in China, and explore the impact path of media exposure on the health literacy of this population, providing a reference for promoting their physical and mental health. Methods From July to November 2022, a multi-stage random sampling method was employed to survey 16,938 Chinese middle-aged and older adults aged 46 and above. Structural equation modeling and statistical analysis were conducted using LISREL 8.8 and Mplus 8.3 software. Results The average score for media exposure among Chinese middle-aged and older adults was (18.55±5.36), perceived social support was (60.68±12.51), self-efficacy was (28.76±5.40), and health literacy was (35.49±6.05). Statistical results revealed that media exposure has a positive impact on the health literacy of middle-aged and older adults, with a direct effect of 0.091 ( p < 0.001). Mediation analysis showed that media exposure can affect the health literacy of this population through the independent mediating effects of perceived social support ( β = 0.013, p < 0.001) and self-efficacy ( β = 0.029, p < 0.001), as well as through a chain mediation effect involving perceived social support and self-efficacy ( β = 0.015, p < 0.001). Conclusion As a pathway for health information dissemination, media exposure plays a crucial role in the intervention of health literacy among middle-aged and older adults. Perceived social support and self-efficacy not only have independent mediating effects but also significant chain mediating effects in the relationship between media exposure and health literacy among this population. Therefore, improving the health literacy of middle-aged and older people can be popularized through media and improved in a multi-path, all-round, and precise way with the help of related technologies and social forces from which media literacy can be improved.

“…In the environment of the comprehensive opening of the three-child policy, working women of childbearing age may feel the psychological or spiritual tension brought about by the cost of living and the external policy environment, and these stresses are mainly derived from family structure and parenting costs. Conflict with the social division of labor for women under the gender division of labor [17,18]. The results of Li and Jiang's research found that there has been a major breakthrough in the social status of women in China, but there has been no substantial change in the social division of labor based on gender.…”

The declining fertility rate has become an important social problem. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the potential relationship between work–family conflict (WFC), life stress (LS), generalized anxiety disorders (GAD) and three-child fertility intention (FI) in working women of reproductive age. The data comes from the survey of the 2021 China Family Health Index Survey. The Mplus8.3 software was used to analyze the selected cases of 1103 female workers of childbearing age between 19 and 35 years old, and they all answered the relevant questions about the willingness to have three children. The results showed that work–family conflict had a significant negative impact on three-child fertility intention of working women of reproductive age (β = −0.188, p < 0.001), The mediating effect found that anxiety disorder had a significant mediating effect between work–family conflict and three-child fertility intention of working women of childbearing age. In addition, the effect between work–family conflict and the three-child fertility intention of working women of reproductive age can be mediated through the chain-mediated effect of Life stress and anxiety disorders. At the same time, the regulating effect also found that life stress can effectively regulate the effect of work–family conflict on anxiety disorders. Therefore, it is necessary to alleviate the conflict between work and family to a certain extent, including employers giving women more understanding and care and reducing gender discrimination. In addition, relatives should also provide substantial labor support in family life. They can also rely on the community to establish childcare services, improve student night care services, and reduce the time cost of female education. Thereby alleviating the life stress and anxiety of female employees of childbearing age and improving their willingness to bear children.
