公民权与美国工业化时期缩短工时运动研究

在工业化时期,美国人们形成了"私人时间"的观念。他们普遍相信,过长的工时侵犯了自己的私人时间,而拥有私人时间是共和国公民的天然权利。这种思想成为缩短工时运动的重要思想基础,促进运动的蓬勃发展。然而,受契约自由传统的影响,运动仅取得了有限的成就,工人获得合理工作时间和私人时间的路途仍很艰辛漫长。     

Domains of convergence for the EM algorithm: a cautionary tale in a location estimation problem

The EM algorithm is a popular method for maximizing a likelihood in the presence of incomplete data. When the likelihood has multiple local maxima, the parameter space can be partitioned into domains of convergence, one for each local maximum. In this paper we investigate these domains for the location family generated by the t-distribution. We show that, perhaps somewhat surprisingly, these domains need not be connected sets. As an extreme case we give an example of a domain which consists of an infinite union of disjoint open intervals. Thus the convergence behaviour of the EM algorithm can be quite sensitive to the starting point.     

Bayesian analysis of outlier problems using divergence measures

A Bayesian approach is presented for detecting influential observations using general divergence measures on the posterior distributions. A sampling-based approach using a Gibbs or Metropolis-within-Gibbs method is used to compute the posterior divergence measures. Four specific measures are proposed, which convey the effects of a single observation or covariate on the posterior. The technique is applied to a generalized linear model with binary response data, an overdispersed model and a nonlinear model. An asymptotic approximation using Laplace method to obtain the posterior divergence is also briefly discussed.     

Making the Best of a Bad Job? Female Part‐Timers’ Orientations and Attitudes to Work

This article uses data from 50 qualitative interviews with female part‐time workers in low‐level jobs in Britain to illustrate their attitudes, orientations and aspirations towards paid work. The research reports two main findings. Firstly, even female part‐time workers at the bottom end of the occupational structure are not a homogeneous group of workers. Secondly, they are not all highly satisfied with their jobs. The article argues that many women (especially those in working‐class households) still do not have a genuine choice between ‘family work’ and ‘market work’. It concludes by presenting a theoretical model of orientations to work.     

改进的OBS长度自适应门限组装算法

现有OBS长度自适应组装算法的突发数据长度门限的选择虽然随着业务流的变化而变化,克服了固定长度门限算法输出的突发数据的突发性,但仍然没有考虑业务流的自相似特性,因此不能有效降低输出突发数据的自相似程度和分组阻塞率。针对这一问题,该文提出了一种改进的OBS长度自适应门限组装算法,能根据到达的网络业务流的自相似特性自适应地调整长度门限值。仿真结果表明:在相同的调度算法下,更能降低业务流的自相似性,分组阻塞率降低一个数量级。

Using a computer simulation game to teach family time use concepts

A computer simulation game designed to give students insights into family time use concepts has been used in an introductory family resource management class at Ohio State University and other universities. The game allows for planning for time use changes over the family life cycle. The game can give students insights into economic and sociological models of time use. It is possible that future versions of the game could be used in family counseling.His research interests include derivation of optimal decision-making rules for families and family financial management.Her research interests include financial management over the life course including financial ratios, baby boomers, and retirement. She received her Ph.D. in 1993 from The Ohio State University in Family Resource Management.His research interests include the time trade-offs made between couples, financial planning over the life cycle, and the interaction of time and money between families and their home-based businesses. He received his Ph.D. in 1993 from The Ohio State University in Family Resource Management.
