学校最适办学规模分析——以广州市黄埔区为例

文章通过对广州市黄埔区21所学校生均教育成本、生均办学条件、生师比,以及学校招生地段内户籍人口数的实证分析,可以推算出黄埔区公办小学的最适办学规模及最适班额。根据研究结果,需要采取撤并、分流等措施,调整办学规模,保证区域内每所学校都能达到适度规模,取得规模经济效益。

印度高等教育规模扩充的驱动因素分析

高等教育规模扩充受多重因素的驱动。在1950—1970年的20年间，印度的高等教育经历了大规模的扩充，持续扩充背后的驱动因素有哪些？本文从不同的角度出发，分析了驱动印度高等教育规模扩充的深层因素。     

Estimation of Deprivation Level Functions using a Numerical Rating Scale

Evaluating and quantifying human suffering in humanitarian operations offers an innovative and potentially powerful way to assess the performance of humanitarian logistics (HL) and help build optimization models. Previous studies have suggested deprivation cost as a metric and have estimated deprivation cost functions for water using willingness‐to‐pay. Our study proposes deprivation levels, defined as the degree of human suffering caused by lack of access to a good or service, and estimates deprivation level functions using a numerical rating scale. Analyzing data collected from respondents with and without disaster experience, we find that individuals in the latter category estimate deprivation differently from the beneficiaries of disaster relief. Our study demonstrates that deprivation levels can be expressed as logistic growth functions with a typical S‐shape, and that these can be integrated into HL optimization models to better account for human suffering.     

我国高等教育规模适度发展的回归研究

高等教育的发展速度应与国家的经济、社会和资源相协调。通过对28个具有代表性的国家的高等教育在学率和人均GDP应用数理统计的方法进行回归分析，建立高等教育规模适度发展的回归模型。计算出与我国经济发展水平相适应的高等教育适度规模，从而得出，我国高等教育规模的发展速度应该减缓，在总规模上应该稳中有升，重在提高教育教学质量，符合我国高等教育的发展现状，为我国国高等教育事业的发展提供了理论依据。     

On Robust Analysis of a Normal Location Parameter

Pericchi and Smith considered a normal location parameter problem with double-exponential and Student t prior distributions. These two prior distributions both belong to the class of scale mixtures of normal distributions and are useful in providing a robust analysis of the normal location parameter problem. In this paper we extend the analysis to other scale mixtures of normal distributions, such as the exponential power and the symmetric stable distributions.     

对有效市场的挑战——资本市场分形与混沌的研究综述

有效市场理论以线性化的假设来刻画资本市场,把市场看成是均衡系统或围绕均衡点变动的周期性系统.但实证检验对两种看法都不支持,市场是一个复杂系统,具有不可叠加性的特征.回顾资本市场复杂性理论的发展历程,从资本市场分形及混沌理论两方面归纳了资本市场复杂性的基本研究方法,综述了国内外资本市场复杂性的研究现状,在此基础上,总结出复杂网络、金融数据高维计算复杂性和人工股市模型等研究动向.     

政府增长过程中的经济增长与市场成长

在公共行政体制下,政府增长无论是公共支出增长、政府机构膨胀、政府雇员增加还是政府立法增多,反映的都是政府公共权力的增长.政府公共权力的增长扩张了公共利益的范围,扩大了政府提供公共物品能力及社会监管力量.政府增长体现的是一种秩序性力量的增长,它与市场成长共同根植于经济活动的日益专业化中,两者存在着内在关联.政府增长促进了市场成长,进而也推进了经济的持续增长.     

Developing a measure of contentment in an Arab Muslim country: implications for cross-cultural research in social work

This is one in a series of papers that report on a programme of research focusing on the psychosocial consequences of Kuwaitis in the wake of the 1990 invasion and occupation by Iraq. The research team chose to focus on contentment as the obverse of trauma effects and develop a new measure that more closely represents Kuwait society due to cultural sensitivity. The paper briefly discusses the programme of research and the need for a new measure of Kuwaiti contentment. The Kuwaiti Raha Scale (KRS), was developed to serve as the primary dependent variable for a post-war national survey of mental health in Kuwait. The KRS emerged from a multi-method approach first administered to a convenience sample of 560 undergraduate university students enrolled in eight different classes. The results reported here note that no differences were found according to the variable of gender, as was expected. Four factors emerged, with Cronbach's Alphas ranging from 0.850 to 0.709 after eliminating three items. The total twenty-eight-item KRS measure yielded a Cronbach's Alpha of 0.906. Conclusions: The present findings suggest that the four subscales are a psychometrically sound measure of contentment, and would be useful in studies of Arabic-speaking cultures by social workers, and other investigators, concerned about culture-based well-being. Implications for European social professions are discussed.
