跨文化交际中的时空观念差异

不同文化背景的人,由于受不同文化传统的影响,其思维方式不同,在人际交往中的时间观念(如时间顺序排列、时间取向、遵守时间的态度)和空间观念(如对体距的认识、对个人领地的态度等)也存在差异。这些差异往往容易被人们忽视,从而影响交际的正常进行,甚至导致交际的失败。因此,在交往中我们应该正确对待文化差异,自觉排除文化差异的干扰。     

失业者再就业行为差异分析

笔者通过对东北老工业城市--长春市失业人员进行实地调查,运用均值分析、因子分析等方法,对失业者再就业行为的差异进行辨别,发现对有再就业意愿的失业者而言,搜寻工作的思想观念与方式、失业期间的活动能力、失业者的心态、当地公共就业服务质量都是导致失业者再就业行为产生差异的主要因素.由此笔者分析了影响失业者再就业行为的内在机制,探讨激励失业者积极再就业的措施,以期为完善我国公共就业服务体系提供政策建议.     

THE PARTICIPATION DIVIDE: Content creation and sharing in the digital age

This paper looks at the prevalence of creative activity and sharing in an age when the barriers to disseminating material have been considerably lowered compared with earlier times. The authors use unique data to explore the extent to which young adults create video, music, writing and artistic photography, as well as the prevalence of sharing such material online. Findings suggest that despite new opportunities to engage in such distribution of content, relatively few people are taking advantage of these recent developments. Moreover, neither creation nor sharing is randomly distributed among a diverse group of young adults. Consistent with existing literature, creative activity is related to a person's socioeconomic status as measured by parental schooling. The novel act of sharing online, however, is considerably different by gender with men much more likely to engage in it. However, once internet user skill is controlled for, men and women are equally likely to post their materials on the Web.     

语言:人类文化创造的总体维度——卡西尔语言哲学研究

卡西尔语言哲学的根本特色在于,它既体现了现代西方哲学的一般趋势,又具有较强的欧陆传统哲学的特征.他主张,从感觉、直觉到概念的发展过程,就是语言从实体到功能、从直接到间接、从个别到一般、从具体到抽象的不断发展过程,象征着人的文化创造性的不断成长.他将语言作为人类文化创造的总体性维度,通过对语言的内在结构和发展进程的文化哲学分析,彰显了语言在人类文化中的独特地位,揭示了人类特有的精神本质和能力.     

英汉翻译中的信息转换

翻译是因社会需要而产生的一种活动 ,在社会中扮演某种角色 ,因此译者及其译本在社会中也起着重要的作用。由于每个社会群体都有自己的共有知识 ,每一种语言都有其文化特点和表达习惯 ,因此译者在其翻译过程中就要考虑用适合目的语读者的语言把原文信息重新表达出来。重新表达不仅需要词法、句法方面的转换 ,还需要采取一些补偿措施对信息进行删减、重组、异化、归化等 ,这样才能把原文的信息适当地传递给目的语读者     

On the computation of the noncentral <Emphasis Type="Italic">F</Emphasis> and noncentral beta distribution

Unfortunately many of the numerous algorithms for computing the comulative distribution function (cdf) and noncentrality parameter of the noncentral F and beta distributions can produce completely incorrect results as demonstrated in the paper by examples. Existing algorithms are scrutinized and those parts that involve numerical difficulties are identified. As a result, a pseudo code is presented in which all the known numerical problems are resolved. This pseudo code can be easily implemented in programming language C or FORTRAN without understanding the complicated mathematical background. Symbolic evaluation of a finite and closed formula is proposed to compute exact cdf values. This approach makes it possible to check quickly and reliably the values returned by professional statistical packages over an extraordinarily wide parameter range without any programming knowledge. This research was motivated by the fact that a very useful table for calculating the size of detectable effects for ANOVA tables contains suspect values in the region of large noncentrality parameter values compared to the values obtained by Patnaik’s 2-moment central-F approximation. The cause is identified and the corrected form of the table for ANOVA purposes is given. The accuracy of the approximations to the noncentral-F distribution is also discussed. The authors wish to thank Mr. Richárd Király for his preliminary work. The authors are grateful to the Editor and Associate Editor of STCO and the unknown reviewers for their helpful suggestions.     

论言语行为中的性别差异

文章对言语行为理论作了概述,介绍了A ustin及其学生Searle对言语的行为理论的贡献;并对语言使用中的性别差异进行了分析,着重指出了在言语行为三大分类中“言内行为”中存在语音、词汇和句法等方面的性别差异。在此基础上揭示了产生这一现象的生理、心理以及社会的根源,最后指出了重视性别差异现象在英语教学中的意义。
