In this study, we explored the role of reciprocal filial values in protecting the wellbeing of Chinese adult-child caregivers in the US. Using survey data obtained from 137 Chinese adult-child caregivers living in seven US cities, we tested a latent variable model using structural equation modeling. In this model, informed by role theory, social exchange theory and stress-coping theory, reciprocal filial values affect caregiver wellbeing in the face of caregiver role strain, both directly and indirectly through protective effects of role rewards and coping. In the final model, reciprocal filial values had both direct and indirect protective effects on caregivers' wellbeing, offering evidence to address culturally sensitive issues in family caregivers with similar filial values.

Article Synopsis
- The study explored how filial piety and perfectionism impact life satisfaction among young adults in Malaysia and the UK, finding that different types of filial piety are linked to how individuals view perfectionism.
- Positive relationships were identified between reciprocal filial piety and both types of perfectionism—adaptive and maladaptive—with adaptive perfectionism enhancing life satisfaction in Malaysia.
- Conversely, authoritarian filial piety was associated with increased maladaptive perfectionism, which lowered life satisfaction in both groups, indicating the need to consider cultural and individual factors in assessing well-being.

This commentary explores how Confucian values influence shared decision-making (SDM) in Chinese healthcare, particularly in oncology. It highlights two key cultural foundations: , which underscore the deep-rooted involvement of families in medical decision-making, often prioritizing collective decisions over individual autonomy; and , which explains the cultural roots of power imbalances in healthcare relationships, where patients typically defer to the authority of doctors, and the role of nurses in SDM is limited. The paper argues that for SDM to be effectively integrated into Chinese healthcare, strategies must be adapted to align with cultural norms while encouraging patient empowerment.
