‘A lad tried to get hold of my boobs,so I kicked him’: an examination of attempts by adults with learning difficulties to initiate their own safeguarding

People with learning difficulties are considerably more likely to experience sexual and other forms of violence than non-disabled people. Nevertheless, several respondents in this study have demonstrated some self-protective competencies. Most knew of their right not to be violated and a number of participants described situations when they had attempted to initiate their own safeguarding. Some had asked others for help with this. However, appropriate assistance was not always provided. This indicates that risk may be aggravated by social barriers. This paper focuses on highlighting the resistance skills that are prevalent amongst some people with learning difficulties. It concludes with suggestions on ways in which individuals may be further supported to realise their potential to play a more active role in directing and regaining their own protection.     

Predictive Hierarchic Modeling of Operational Characteristics in Clinical Trials

An analytic methodology for patient enrollment modeling using a Poisson-gamma model is developed by Anisimov & Fedorov (2005–2007). For modeling hierarchic processes associated with enrollment, a new methodology using evolving stochastic processes is proposed. This provides rather general and unified framework to describe various operational processes associated with enrollment. The technique for calculating predictive distributions, mean, and credibility bounds for evolving processes is developed. Some applications to modeling operational characteristics in clinical trials are considered with focus to modeling events associated with incoming and follow-up patients in different settings. For these models, predictive characteristics are derived in a closed form.     

知识产权“十二五”发展规划实施的关键难题与机遇研究

知识产权＂十二五＂发展规划具有多重属性与复杂性、制定组织结构多元化、地区发展不平衡及其与环境匹配较难等特点,较薄弱的知识产权基础因素与国际发展动态影响下,使得我国知识产权＂十二五＂发展规划实施挑战与机遇并存。     

一个人的绞刑架——从苔丝看哈代的悲剧观

《德伯家的苔丝》是英国著名小说家托马斯.哈代的悲剧代表作。透过作品品读作者哈代的悲剧观,这种悲剧观不是让人痛让人哭,而是让人以一种淡淡的忧伤感受悲观,以局外人的淡定感受一种注定如此、必然这样的悲剧生成。哈代通过笔下的人物让读者看到他对待悲剧的态度,直接面对并坦然接受这种结局。

电动空调涡旋压缩机型线优化

选取我国三大经济区2001—2017年的数据,运用面板数据模型分析了政府财政、金融市场及其相互作用对区域自主创新能力提升的影响,结果表明:政府财政对自主创新能力的提升作用较金融市场更为显著,但三大经济区存在差异;就全国总体而言,金融支持效率指标在是否存在政府中介的情况下均不显著,金融市场对自主创新的支持效率还很低下;误差修正模型表明区域自主创新能力提升还受自身前期自主创新能力水平影响;人力资本的投入对区域自主创新能力的提升起到至关重要的作用。     

试论技术预见在自主创新中的作用

技术预见是对于未来较长时期的科学技术、经济和社会发展的系统研究,它有别于技术预测,遵循所谓的"5C"原则。技术预见符合当代技术创新的发展的新要求,在自主创新中能起到战略导航系统的作用。技术预见能提升区域自主创新能力,预测能形成自主知识产权的关键技术和最有可能实现产业化的技术项目,为制定区域科技发展规划、实现区域经济跨越式发展提供依据。     

高校扩招与城市发展

高校扩招已成为社会和教育界讨论的热点问题。全面认识高校扩招与城市发展之间的相互关系,对于城市建设与高校发展都具有十分重要的作用。高校扩招与城市发展具有正相关性,城市发展为高校扩招提供了市场需求,高校扩招是促进城市发展的重要途径。本文从城市发展的角度,给出了高校扩招后的建议,提出了大力发展应用型大学的必要性。
