This study attempted to examine the impact of relative income on marital happiness and instability among urban Chinese women. Using a sample of 1104 married women in Beijing, this study found that wives' relative income was negatively associated with marital happiness, and positively associated with marital instability to a small extent. Traditional breadwinner role attitudes were positively associated with marital happiness, and negatively associated with marital instability. Feminine role attitudes were not associated with any dimension of marital quality. Hierarchical multiple regression indicated that the moderating role of feminine role attitudes on marital happiness was supported. In other words, the negative impact of wives' income advantage on marital happiness was buffered by egalitarian feminine role attitudes. The implications of the findings for theoretical verification and family-friendly policy making are discussed.

Objectives: To assess the effects of trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) among maltreated children, and to examine the role of potential moderators. Methods: A search of eight databases was conducted. Eighteen studies involving 11 randomized and quasi-randomized controlled trials with 965 maltreated children were included, and the effect sizes were pooled using random-effect models. Results: There were large effect sizes for posttraumatic growth and emotional management. Moderate to large effects were evident for PTSD and depression, while small effects were found for anxiety, internalizing behavior, sexualized behavior, and parenting practice. Effects were maintained at 3–12 months for some outcome domains. The effectiveness of TF-CBT was better when delivered to older children, and versions of TF-CBT, delivery format, sessions, and treatment length will not affect effectiveness. Conclusions: TF-CBT effectively reduces abuse-related symptoms and improves positive psychosocial outcomes among maltreated children.

Abstract
In China, social workers face great at-work stress, job burnout and turnover. Determining how to prevent and alleviate their job burnout and improve their work enthusiasm and engagement has become urgent. Using the affective events theory and challenge stressor-hindrance stressor framework, this study explored the impacts of different types of stressors on job engagement and its associated mechanisms and then examined the protective roles of positive emotion and career resilience. A total of 430 social workers in Beijing were investigated. The unique and combined contribution of the stress components to job engagement has been examined. The results showed that both challenge stressors and hindrance stressors had significantly negative impacts on social workers' work engagement and positive emotion, and positive emotion had a significant positive influence on work engagement. Positive emotion fully mediated the negative relationship between challenge stressors and work engagement, and partially mediated the negative relationship between hindrance stressors and work engagement. Furthermore, career resilience can buffer the negative influence of challenge stressors on positive emotion.
