从西方人的“消极面子”看中西文化及其礼貌言语差异

针对Ｂｒｏｗｎ和Ｌｅｖｉｎｓｏｎ提出的以自由为核心的“消极面子”概念，对中西文化及其礼貌言语现象作对比分析后可见，就Ｂｒｏｗｎ和Ｌｅｖｉｎｓｏｎ的“消极面子”概念而言，中西文化及其礼貌言语存在着较大差异，无法用某种统一的标准来衡量。     

先秦汉语“弗”字用法及其性质再探

在先秦汉语中,"弗"作为一个一般性的否定副词,它的语法意义并非单纯地体现在用于省去宾语的外动词和介词之前.在先秦不同时期的各种典籍中有大量的例子表明,它不仅可以用来修饰带有宾语的外动词和介词,甚至还可以用来修饰内动词、形容词以及状词.因此,"弗"字既不是"不之"的合义,也不是"兼摄了代词宾语的职能",它不可能是"一个含有代名词性的宾语的否定词".它是一个单纯的否定代词.     

自由与平等两种激情的遭遇——读《旧制度与大革命》

以自由与平等为圭臬的法国革命,却以拿破仑专制而告终.追求自由的结果何以成了独裁政治下平等的仆役?重读托克维尔的《旧制度与大革命》,反思那一时期的法国历史,可以得出一些答案.大革命中,自由与平等两股激情相互交织,最终平等压倒了自由.自由与平等在大革命中的冲突,并非由于两者学理上的悖论,关键在于法国旧制度以来一以贯之的政治专制与浓重的社会平等意识,正是这些使法国人对专制政治产生了极强的依赖性.一个专制的社会里,人们追求自由的结果往往是平等--专制下的奴役的平等.要"在自由中享有平等,在平等中自由地生活",必须铲除专制的根基,致力于民主社会的建构.     

中国西部地区人才资源流失导致的人文环境恶化问题研究

各地人文环境对人力资本投资起着十分重要且不可替代的作用,但西部地区人才资源的持续外流却使得当地人文环境恶化,从而无法对广大的民众起到良好的培育作用.培育当地的民营企业家阶层、解决县镇就业是重建西部地区人文环境的治本之策.

Confidence curves and improved exact confidence intervals for discrete distributions

The author describes a method for improving standard “exact” confidence intervals in discrete distributions with respect to size while retaining correct level. The binomial, negative binomial, hypergeometric, and Poisson distributions are considered explicitly. Contrary to other existing methods, the author's solution possesses a natural nesting condition: if α < α', the 1 ‐ α' confidence interval is included in the 1 ‐ α interval. Nonparametric confidence intervals for a quantile are also considered.     

Extension of the Application of Conway‐Maxwell‐Poisson Models: Analyzing Traffic Crash Data Exhibiting Underdispersion

The objective of this article is to evaluate the performance of the COM‐Poisson GLM for analyzing crash data exhibiting underdispersion (when conditional on the mean). The COM‐Poisson distribution, originally developed in 1962, has recently been reintroduced by statisticians for analyzing count data subjected to either over‐ or underdispersion. Over the last year, the COM‐Poisson GLM has been evaluated in the context of crash data analysis and it has been shown that the model performs as well as the Poisson‐gamma model for crash data exhibiting overdispersion. To accomplish the objective of this study, several COM‐Poisson models were estimated using crash data collected at 162 railway‐highway crossings in South Korea between 1998 and 2002. This data set has been shown to exhibit underdispersion when models linking crash data to various explanatory variables are estimated. The modeling results were compared to those produced from the Poisson and gamma probability models documented in a previous published study. The results of this research show that the COM‐Poisson GLM can handle crash data when the modeling output shows signs of underdispersion. Finally, they also show that the model proposed in this study provides better statistical performance than the gamma probability and the traditional Poisson models, at least for this data set.     

从权利政治观浅析洛克的自由主义思想

权利政治观是构成洛克自由思想的重要组成部分,是《政府论》的论证基础,与其政治社会的构想有着紧密联系,对后世的政治实践与现代政治思潮产生了深远影响。文中从权利政治观入手,着重分析自由权、财产权、革命权在其政治思想中的作用,浅析这种权利政治观的现实意义和内在困惑。     

Feel threatened being prejudiced: the role of past experience and proximal threat in shaping adolescents’ Romaphobia

This study investigates Serbian adolescents’ attitudes towards the Roma, i.e. Romaphobia. The sample consisted of 687 secondary school students (mean age 17), of which 53% were females. In a survey-based study, we assessed perception of physical threat, quality of previous contact with Roma, and Romaphobia. The findings demonstrate that perceived physical threat entices and supports the emergence of Romaphobia. Moreover, the relationship between past experience with Roma and Romaphobia was fully mediated by perceived proximal threat. The theoretical and educational implications are discussed.     

关于建立与社会主义市场经济相适应的思想道德体系的思考

市场经济体制促进了我国现代化建设的发展 ,也带来了不容忽视的社会问题 ,建立与社会主义市场经济相适应的思想道德体系刻不容缓。这一思想道德体系从原则上讲 ,必须坚持改革开放和市场经济建设的社会主义方向 ,坚持把以法治国与以德治国密切结合起来 ,坚持思想道德领域的非市场化原则 ,坚持多层次、全方位的思想道德建设 ,坚持经济体制改革与政治体制改革相结合 ,这样才能逐步消除市场经济的负面影响。
