重新评价马克·吐温的代表作——《汤姆·索耶历险记》和《哈克贝里·费恩历险记》(英文)

马克·吐温,这位在美国文学史上开一代创作先河的小说家,为后人留下了20多篇不朽佳作.其中,令人惊讶的是:在他全部作品中,两部描写少年历险故事的著作——《汤姆·索耶历险记》和《哈克贝里·费恩历险记》,始终处于最突出的位置,并一直被中外学者公推为其代表作.于是我们不得不深思这样一个问题,作为美国文坛杰出代表人物之一的马克·吐温为什么选择了儿童的角色,而又把他们塑造很空前成功?纵观文学界对马克·吐温作品及其人物形象的有关研究成果和论述,似乎都不能够圆满地答复这个问题.     

若干国家和地区对知识产权滥用的反垄断控制

为防止知识产权的滥用,一些国家和地区采取了包括反垄断法在内的控制措施。其中,美国司法部和联邦贸易委员会于1995年联合发布的《知识产权许可的反托拉斯指南》、欧共体委员会于1996年颁布的《技术转让规章》、日本公正交易委员会1999年重新颁布的《专利和技术秘密许可协议中的反垄断法指导方针》等颇具代表性,反映了国际上的最新发展趋势。对知识产权滥用的反垄断控制是反垄断法的一项重要任务,是我国面临的一个重要问题,我国有必要借鉴有关经验建立对知识产权滥用的反垄断控制法律制度。     

社会工作视角下农村"留守儿童"问题的分析与对策

近年来，农村“留守儿童”问题倍受关注。研究表明，农村“留守儿童”在生理及心理、自我认同、自我控制等方面存在很多问题。这一问题能否得到很好解决，不仅关系着孩子们的身心成长，更关系着和谐社会的建立。通过社会工作的角度开展个案、小组、家庭、学校与社区以及社会政策的综合干预方法，来对当前解决农村“留守儿童”问题提供一个新的视角。     

Strategic Bargaining Over Child Support and Visitation

When parents divorce, child support and visitation must be determined. The 1988 Family Support Act requires all states to have child support guidelines for courts to use in determining child support obligations. However, many divorcing couples arrive at agreements without court intervention, or they simply fail to enforce the court decision ex post. Given that the guidelines provide a starting point for negotiations, couples may be able to find self-negotiated, Pareto-improving solutions. In this paper we model the bargaining process that divorcing couples engage in when coming to agreements on visitation and child support. The model suggests that individuals may arrive at agreements that are Pareto improvements for both parents but that the children's welfare may decline as a result of these self-negotiated settlements. Data from the Stanford Child Custody Study show that the changes made in child support and visitation agreements are consistent with our model in only 30 percent of the cases. Therefore, we consider alternative specifications of the model and show that both significant costs of enforcing the original agreement and alternative assumptions on parental preferences can explain these empirical results.     

A case of suspected child abuse by an adolescent mother: The use of short-term psychotherapy

The incidence of pregnancy during adolescence has escalated dramatically in recent years, with an estimated half a million infants born to teenagers each year in the United States. A disproportionately high amount of child abuse and/or neglect is encountered among adolescent parents, underscoring the need for an effective intervention strategy. Short-term psychotherapy may be beneficial in these cases for forging a therapeutic alliance expeditiously and rigorously challenging the patient's resistance. The case described involves alleged abuse by a 16-year-old mother. An intervention was designed to clarify the allegations surrounding the abusive incident, help the mother confront episodes of loss in her own life and overcome feelings of hopelessness engendered by separation from her infant.     

Who Gets What From Government? Distributional Consequences of Child‐Care Assistance Policies

Given the fragmented structure of child‐care assistance in the United States, it has been difficult to obtain accurate estimates of which families are assisted, through which mechanisms, and at what level. Making use of survey data from New York City, we analyze the distribution of several forms of public child‐care assistance. Results suggest that about 40% of all families with young children receive some form of child‐care assistance. Considering all forms of assistance, the distribution of child‐care help is targeted in both expected and some unexpected ways. Implications of these results are discussed in the context of U.S. child‐care policies governing access and benefit levels.     

房价上涨对我国人口出生率的影响——基于省级面板数据的实证分析

人口数量和结构是影响我国可持续发展的关键因素,住房是人民群众安居乐业的刚需。近年来,我国人口出生率持续下降。为了实现经济高质量发展,缓解人口危机是当前亟待解决的重要问题。为了探究房价上涨对于我国人口出生率的影响,利用31个省级行政区2010—2019年的面板数据和加权最小二乘法进行实证分析,结果表明：房价上涨对人口出生率产生显著的负向影响,住房价格平均上涨1%将导致人口出生率下降0.13%~0.22%;房价上涨对人口出生率的影响在东部省份以挤出效应为主、在中西部省份是以财富效应为主。当前,通过遏制住房投资投机性需求、给予“刚需”人群购房贷款优惠、适量增加东部省份土地供给等手段,可以助力解决我国当前的人口问题。     

Homework and domestic work

This study assesses two competing theories about the extent to which homework—paid work in the home—helps integrate work and domestic roles for men and women. Contrasting male and female homeworkers with their counterparts working outside the home, it supports some aspects of both the resource and role overload theories, but predominantly the role overload perspective. Homeworkers, especially in the working class, experience less interference between job and family life, but perform more housework and child care. They have no more leisure time nor greater marital satisfaction than those working outside the home, but receive more family assistance with their paid jobs, suggesting that they combine tasks from their first and second shifts. Working at home does not break down gender roles in domestic life. Despite time saved from commuting, male homeworkers perform no more housework than comparable men working outside the home. Thus, the gender division of unpaid household labor is not simply a matter of resources or spatial logistics.An earlier version was presented at the meetings of the Eastern Sociological Society, Providence, Rhode Island, April 1991.     

4-6岁幼儿电子游戏卷入度与得分关系研究

为了解4-6岁幼儿电子游戏卷入度与游戏得分的关系,对随机选取的20名4-6岁的幼儿在选用的电子游戏中的行为表现及游戏得分进行了观察研究。结果发现: （1）电子游戏卷入度的正性维度得分（M=37.750）高于负性维度得分（M=23.600）;（2）游戏得分从高到低的项目为：保卫萝卜（M=3.200）>水果消消乐（M=2.400）>俄罗斯方块（M=1.400）;（3）电子游戏卷入度负性因子与游戏得分的交互作用明显,F(6,14)=14.368,P<0.005。结论：（1）益智电子游戏可以较好促进4-6岁幼儿产生喜悦、注意、鼓励、努力等积极情绪;（2）游戏规则和操作越简单,越容易成功的益智游戏,更容易吸引4-6岁幼儿;（3）场景多变性、任务挑战难度越大的益智游戏,具有双刃剑的效应,虽然可以引起4-6岁幼儿参与游戏的兴趣,但是也容易给他们带来消极的情感体验。     

新时代背景下幼儿教师对问题儿童接纳态度的探讨分析

学前教育是基础教育中的重中之重,幼儿教育中的问题儿童是幼儿园教育过程不可避免和忽视的一个特殊群体,而幼儿教师对问题儿童的接纳态度是其进行其他教学活动的重要因素。本研究试图通过分析西藏自治区拉萨市幼儿教师队伍的构成状况、幼儿教师目前薪资水平、社会地位这三个因素,探讨其对问题儿童接纳态度的影响,并提出相关对策与建议。
