教育政策的利益分析——以择校问题为例

利益是公共政策分析的基本范畴,实现公共利益是教育政策制定最重要的目标。教育政策的利益分析包括利益主体分析、利益需求分析、利益实现方式分析以及利益结果分析四个方面。从利益分析的角度来看,择校问题实际上是由于优质教育资源供需矛盾而导致的,其中教育资源分配不均衡是根本原因。择校代表了一种个人的基本权利,体现的是个人利益。通过改革不合理的教育供给方式、增加教育服务供给,是治理择校问题、平衡公共利益和私人利益的有效途径。     

基于累积前景理论的多资产投资组合优化与实证研究

基于CPT视角的多风险资产投资组合模型,探讨投资者面对不同投资风险时的心理变化以及心理变化对其投资策略的影响。通过选取不同超额收益率及波动率水平的股票,测试投资策略对于风险态度指标的敏感度。研究表明,投资者面对不同风险具有明显地心理变化,并且其心理变化对投资策略具有显著的影响。具体表现在几个方面：投资者面对不确定收益时,表现出风险厌恶,面对不确定损失时,表现出风险偏好;投资者将无风险资产的投资收益作为心理参考点,所做的投资决策与相对于此参考点的相对财富水平的变化有关,而不是与传统理论中的绝对财富变化量相关。     

不同主体股权转让问题探讨

在法律实践中,隐名投资作为一种非常规的投资方式,其所引起的纠纷除了涉及隐名股东与名义持股人内部协议履行的问题,亦有隐名股东、名义持股人因公司经营或股权利益分配导致的与公司或第三人之间的纠纷。本文基于最新的《公司法》司法解释三,对隐名股权的转让问题进行分析;同时,股权基于其财产权的属性可作为夫妻之间的共同财产,但法律和司法解释均未对夫妻之间在离婚阶段难以协商一致时如何认定股权归属和收益归属问题进行规定,本文将对若干可能情况下的该问题进行法理上的阐释。     

企业用户云服务技术选择行为

如何选择最佳云服务方案,是企业决定采纳云服务之后所面临的一个重要决策。为了解决云服务技术选择问题,从业务流程的视角出发,以模块化系统理论为基础,提出一个流程模块化、IT可拆解性及安全风险如何影响云服务技术选择的研究模型。采用问卷调查和计量经济学的普通最小二乘法OLS进行实证分析。研究结果表明:流程模块化和IT可拆解性对云服务技术选择的抽象程度有显著的正向影响,即流程模块化程度IT可拆解性越高的企业,越倾向于选择抽象程度高的云服务,如软件即服务SaaS;而流程模块化程度和IT可拆解性越低的企业,越倾向于选择抽象程度低的云服务,如基础设施即服务IaaS。同时,安全风险会正向调节流程模块化和IT可拆解性对云服务技术选择的抽象程度的影响。     

高新技术创新的文化路径及政策选择

相对一般的技术创新，高新技术创新有其独有的一些特点，这些特点决定了文化对高新技术创新具有重要作用。高新技术创新的文化路径包括观念文化路径、制度文化路径和行动文化路径三个方面。基于文化视角优化高新技术创新的政策选择，完善我国科技政策，有助于推动高新技术的进一步创新。     

A likelihood ratio test to discriminate exponential–Poisson and gamma distributions

The exponential–Poisson (EP) distribution with scale and shape parameters β>0 and λ∈?, respectively, is a lifetime distribution obtained by mixing exponential and zero-truncated Poisson models. The EP distribution has been a good alternative to the gamma distribution for modelling lifetime, reliability and time intervals of successive natural disasters. Both EP and gamma distributions have some similarities and properties in common, for example, their densities may be strictly decreasing or unimodal, and their hazard rate functions may be decreasing, increasing or constant depending on their shape parameters. On the other hand, the EP distribution has several interesting applications based on stochastic representations involving maximum and minimum of iid exponential variables (with random sample size) which make it of distinguishable scientific importance from the gamma distribution. Given the similarities and different scientific relevance between these models, one question of interest is how to discriminate them. With this in mind, we propose a likelihood ratio test based on Cox's statistic to discriminate the EP and gamma distributions. The asymptotic distribution of the normalized logarithm of the ratio of the maximized likelihoods under two null hypotheses – data come from EP or gamma distributions – is provided. With this, we obtain the probabilities of correct selection. Hence, we propose to choose the model that maximizes the probability of correct selection (PCS). We also determinate the minimum sample size required to discriminate the EP and gamma distributions when the PCS and a given tolerance level based on some distance are before stated. A simulation study to evaluate the accuracy of the asymptotic probabilities of correct selection is also presented. The paper is motivated by two applications to real data sets.     

千城一面——造城时代下的物竞天择

随着对城镇化质量的日益关注,媒体与学界对千城一面的批判愈演愈烈。然而,如果将城市看做是地球生态系统的一部分,遵循生物界优胜劣汰、适者生存的丛林法则,那么千城一面现象便是时代背景下环境选择的结果——特定的科技、经济、文化发展水平等客观属性,把在生存竞争中处于劣势的建筑形制与空间范式逐一淘汰,筛选出最符合时代需求与发展方向的特征传承下去。在理解千城一面的时代必然性的基础上,理性认识古典主义与现代主义、空间舒适性与独特性、空间使用者的主与客之间的辩证关系,才能走出"为批判而批判"的误区。     

The performance of model averaged tail area confidence intervals

We investigate the exact coverage and expected length properties of the model averaged tail area (MATA) confidence interval proposed by Turek and Fletcher, CSDA, 2012, in the context of two nested, normal linear regression models. The simpler model is obtained by applying a single linear constraint on the regression parameter vector of the full model. For given length of response vector and nominal coverage of the MATA confidence interval, we consider all possible models of this type and all possible true parameter values, together with a wide class of design matrices and parameters of interest. Our results show that, while not ideal, MATA confidence intervals perform surprisingly well in our regression scenario, provided that we use the minimum weight within the class of weights that we consider on the simpler model.     

Clarifying the Association Between Mother–Father Relationship Aggression and Parenting

Although much research examines the association between fathers' relationship aggression and mothers' parenting, little attention is given to mothers' aggression, mutual aggression, or fathers' parenting. Using a sample of coresiding couples from the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study (N = 973), the authors examine the association between mothers' and fathers' relationship aggression, measured as frequency and perpetration–victimization types (mutual, mother only, father only), and mothers' and fathers' parenting. Fixed effects regression models show that fathers' aggression is positively related to mothers' parenting stress, whereas father‐only or mother‐only aggression is related to fathers' stress. For both parents, aggression perpetration is negatively related to their own engagement with children. Mother‐only aggression is negatively related to mothers' spanking and positively related to fathers' spanking. These findings suggest the importance of examining both parents' aggression and perpetrators' as well as victims' parenting to better understand the link between relationship aggression and parenting.     

Sexual Coercion in Marriage: Narrative Accounts of Abused Mexican-American Women

Intimate partner sexual violence (IPSV) has been relatively understudied particularly from the perspective of women of color. This study documents the experiences with partner sexual violence of ten Mexican-American women. Qualitative interviews were conducted using snowball sampling with women that had been in abusive marital relationships. A phenomenological approach was used and through a thematic analysis, participant narrative responses were synthesized into themes. All participants reported sexual coercion and violence in their marriages, yet most did not label those experiences as “rape” despite the threatening context in which these incidents occurred. Tacit, but not always explicit acceptance of machismo, patriarchy, and male dominance were common themes possibly increasing IPV risk. Results highlight the complex interaction between upholding cultural values on the one hand, and preserving individual well-being and safety, on the other, underscoring the need for more extensive culturally sensitive research, prevention and intervention efforts for abused Mexican-American women
