During China’s speeding urbanization, creating a unique city image to achieve economic growth draws the attention of property developers, urban planners, and city administrations. Through activating urban spaces and creating dynamic urban culture, public art plays an effective role in leading modern urban creative capital investment into China’s urban development. In order to understand the implementation of public art in Beijing and Shanghai, this research aims to analyze the resonance between public art and urbanization in Chinese megacities through selected case studies. The study reveals public art guided by urbanization policy and strategy in metropolitan China, which further unfolds the discontinuous and fragmented relationship between public art, public sphere, and urbanization policies. Through discovering the imbalances between public art investment, implementation, and post-implementation management frameworks, the study provides several approaches to boost China’s urban development for achieving the resonance between public art and urbanization.

In recent years, cities are heavily investing in visual identity and its image. Literature revealed art has been used as a tool to escalate the city image by improving visual quality. This paper present of identifying the role of art in raising city image in the context of youth perception. The paper engages a case study in Kampung Pelangi, Semarang city. Likewise to response to the rapid change of urban city, Semarang city was attempted to paint the slum area becomes more colorful and attractive. Thus, potentially brought an impact to the overall visual quality in the city. The online questionnaire was used and collected 78 respondens. The study employs a combination of statistics and descriptive analysis. The variety of statistical analysis performed to examined the significant correlation. The multiple linear regression analysis showed the significant variable on a longer period of stay whereas lack of evidence for other related variables. Moreover, the correlation analysis was used to examined the hypothesis in chi-square test. The result obtained significant correlation was showed art element in Kampung Pelangi potential to escalate image in a district scale although lack of evidence to indicate that art in Kampung Pelangi could contributes to raising the image of Semarang city. Additionally, the study allows to generated conceptual matrix on the relationship of public art (publicity) and city image (imageability) towards spatial sustainability. The study is limit in one type of sample, and a small number of respondent might affect the result.Keywords: Public art; city image; youth perception; imageabilityeISSN 2398-4295 © 2019. The Authors.

Purpose This exploratory study examined the language skills and the type and frequency of disfluencies in the spoken narrative production of Spanish–English bilingual children who do not stutter. Method A cross-sectional sample of 29 bilingual students (16 boys and 13 girls) enrolled in grades prekindergarten through Grade 4 produced a total of 58 narrative retell language samples in English and Spanish. Key outcome measures in each language included the percentage of normal (%ND) and stuttering-like (%SLD) disfluencies, percentage of words in mazes (%MzWds), number of total words, number of different words, and mean length of utterance in words. Results Cross-linguistic, pairwise comparisons revealed significant differences with medium effect sizes for %ND and %MzWds (both lower for English) as well as for number of different words (lower for Spanish). On average, the total percentage of mazed words was higher than 10% in both languages, a pattern driven primarily by %ND; %SLDs were below 1% in both languages. Multiple linear regression models for %ND and %SLD in each language indicated that %MzWds was the primary predictor across languages beyond other language measures and demographic variables. Conclusions The findings extend the evidence base with regard to the frequency and type of disfluencies that can be expected in bilingual children who do not stutter in grades prekindergarten to Grade 4. The data indicate that %MzWds and %ND can similarly index the normal disfluencies of bilingual children during narrative production. The potential clinical implications of the findings from this study are discussed.
