“…Meanwhile, analyzing the effect of mobile payment on the economic-social-environmental system of other countries, such as India and African countries, is also critical in order to conduct sustainable development. Finally, an over-reliance on digital technology may also increase people's risk of social anxiety and obesity due to long hours indoors and a lack of exercise [127]. Therefore, although mobile payment may reduce the negative impact of environmental pollution on people's SWB, it may also have a negative impact on SWB due to the lack of connection with the external social environment, which is worth discussing in the future.…”

While the prior mobile payment−subjective well-being (SWB) literature has mainly discussed its economic and social impacts, the present study supplements this body of research by introducing an economic–social–environmental perspective. Using two waves of representative Chinese national surveys, the instrumental variable (IV) estimator suggests that mobile payment is positively and statistically significantly correlated with SWB. Furthermore, the results reveal that the positive correlation comes from the compound influence of economic, social, and environmental channels. Specifically, it shows that mobile payment not only affects people’s economic and social performance but also mitigates the adverse effects of poor environmental conditions on SWB. Additionally, a further disaggregated analysis shows that mobile payment exerts a stronger positive influence on SWB for people from underdeveloped areas within the economic–social–environmental framework. These findings shed light on the role of financial technology in facilitating sustainable development.

Introduction: Traditional games are essential for children’s social inclusion due to cultural values and beliefs. This study was conducted to measure the impact of traditional children’s games on internet use, social skills, and stress levels. Methods: A cross-sectional design was carried out. Children who had parental approval and agreed to participate were included in the study ( n = 314). The data were collected using a questionnaire, the Perceived Stress Questionnaire (8–11 years), and the Social Skills Assessment Scale. Linear regression and multinomial logistic regression were performed to analyze the data. Mantel–Haenszel chi-square test was performed to assess the confounding factors for playing traditional games. Results: The children’s mean age was 11.58 ( SD = 0.49), and 56.1% were girls. Children who did not play traditional games were more likely to use the internet than those who played traditional games (odds ratio [OR] = 2.16, p = .014). The social skills were significantly associated with daily internet use time (β = 0.164, p = .003), playing traditional games (β = 0.155, p = .008), and frequency of gaming per week (β = 0.123, p = .035). The stress levels were associated with gender (β = 0.120, p = .033) and academic level (β = 0.111, p = .048). Discussion: Traditional game playing reduced the duration of one sitting and daily internet use. Moreover, outdoor gaming, frequency of playing games, and daily internet use duration were predictors of social skills, whereas being a girl and sixth-grade student were predisposing factors of stress level. Nurses could benefit from traditional games in reducing internet use and stress and improving social skills in children.
