“…In the research on the relationship between FDI and individual health, scholars mainly focus on the health of adults [7,8] and infants [9] in the host country, while ignoring the impact of FDI on rural-urban migrants' physical health. Some scholars have noticed that FDI will lead to the migration of rural labor into cities, causing the minor children of rural-urban migrants to become left-behind children [10], which in turn will exert a negative influence on the physical health of the children [11]. However, they have not further explored the impact of FDI on this specific group's physical health, which is exactly the research content of this paper.…”

The purpose of this study is to explore the influence of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) on rural-urban migrants’ physical health and its influencing mechanism. A total of 134,920 rural-urban migrant samples are matched based on the China Migrants Dynamic Survey in 2017 and the China Urban Statistical Yearbook in 2016. On the basis of the samples, a Binary Probit Model is used to explore the relationship between the degree of FDI and rural-urban migrants’ physical health. The results show that compared with migrants who lived in cities with a lower FDI level, rural-urban migrants who lived in cities with a higher FDI level are better in physical health. The results of the mediation effect model show that the degree of FDI has a significant positive impact on employment rights and benefits the protection of rural-urban migrants, improving rural-urban migrants’ physical health, which means employment rights and benefits protection plays an intermediary role in the process of FDI affecting rural-urban migrants’ physical health. Therefore, when formulating public policies such as plans to improve the physical health of rural-urban migrants, not only the availability of medical services for rural-urban migrants needs to be improved, but the positive spillover effect of FDI should be taken into account. By doing so, FDI can positively affect the physical health of rural-urban migrants.

“…We control for individual and household demographic and socioeconomic characteristics, including age, marital status, education, employment status, household size and logged household income. Age is an important determinant of fertility behavior (Liu et al, 2021). To capture the possible nonlinearity in the relation between age and fertility behavior (Billari et al, 2019;Liu et al, 2021), we introduce age and its squared term.…”

“…Age is an important determinant of fertility behavior (Liu et al, 2021). To capture the possible nonlinearity in the relation between age and fertility behavior (Billari et al, 2019;Liu et al, 2021), we introduce age and its squared term. Given that marital status has been found to be associated with reproductive behavior (Nitsche & Hayford, 2020;Schultz, 1994), we also include it as a dummy (1 = married/living together, 0 = otherwise).…”

“…The residential house market in China has gone through rapid growth during the past decade (Yang et al , 2021c; Xu and Zhang, 2021a; Zhu and Zhang, 2021). Residential house prices have become an important and unavoidable issue that significantly impacts the society and economy (Su et al , 2021; Xu and Zhang, 2022e; Liu et al , 2021). Thus, understandings of house prices and their interrelationships have undoubtedly drawn a great amount of attention from the people, investors, economists and policymakers, among many others (Dufitinema, 2021; Xu and Zhang, 2022b; Garriga et al , 2021).…”

Purpose Understandings of house prices and their interrelationships have undoubtedly drawn a great amount of attention from various market participants. This study aims to investigate the monthly newly-built residential house price indices of seventy Chinese cities during a 10-year period spanning January 2011–December 2020 for understandings of issues related to their interdependence and synchronizations. Design/methodology/approach Analysis here is facilitated through network analysis together with topological and hierarchical characterizations of price comovements. Findings This study determines eight sectoral groups of cities whose house price indices are directly connected and the price synchronization within each group is higher than that at the national level, although each shows rather idiosyncratic patterns. Degrees of house price comovements are generally lower starting from 2018 at the national level and for the eight sectoral groups. Similarly, this study finds that the synchronization intensity associated with the house price index of each city generally switches to a lower level starting from early 2019. Originality/value Results here should be of use to policy design and analysis aiming at housing market evaluations and monitoring.
