Abstract: A person’s living behavior patterns are closely related to three types of settlements: real-life settlements, imagined settlements, and pseudo-settlements. The term “pseudo-settlement” (PS) refers to the places that are selectively recorded and represented after the mass media chose and restructure the residence information. As the mass media rapidly develops and people’s way of obtaining information gradually change, PS has already become one of the main ways for people to recognize and understand real-life settlements, as well as describe their impressions of imagined settlements. PS also has a profound impact on tourism, employment, investment, migration, real estate development, etc. Thus, the study of PSs has important theoretical and practical significance. This paper proposes to put forward residential quarters where the mass media is displayed as the object of study and establishes the pseudo-settlement index system of Dalian in and elaborate analysis of the concept of PSs.

    About FSE The Foundation for Scholarly Exchange (formerly known as the U.S. Educational Foundation in the Republic of China), supported mainly by Taiwan’s Ministry of Education (MOE), Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA), and U.S. Department of State via the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT), is one of 51 bi-national/bilateral organizations in the world established specifically to administer the Fulbright educational exchange program outside the U.S. Ever since 1957, the Foundation has financed over 1400 Taiwan Fulbright grantees to the U.S. and more than 1000 U.S. Fulbright grantees coming to Taiwan. In 1962, the Foundation started the U.S. Education Information Center for Taiwan students who need information or guidance about studying in the U.S. Since 2003, the Foundation has cooperated with Yilan County Government to organize the Fulbright ETA project, with a view to providing high-quality English instruction to students in the county’s junior middle and elementary schools. Later, in 2008, the Kaohsiung City Government and the Foundation jointly began to deliver a similar ETA program in Kaohsiung. Currently, there are 28 Fulbright ETA grantees participating in this special project in both places. FSE is overseen by a Board of Directors comprising five Taiwanese and five U.S. members, with the director of the American Institute in Taiwan (AIT) as the Honorary Chairman of the Board. The Fulbright Program The Fulbright Program was established in 1946 in the aftermath of WWII, as an initiative of Senator J. William Fulbright of Arkansas, who believed that a program of educational and cultural exchange between the people of the United States and those of other nations could play an important role in building lasting world peace.
