Florida Households’ Expected Responses to Hurricane Hazard Mitigation Incentives

This study tested a series of models predicting household expectations of participating in hurricane hazard mitigation incentive programs. Data from 599 households in Florida revealed that mitigation incentive adoption expectations were most strongly and consistently related to hazard intrusiveness and risk perception and, to a lesser extent, worry. Demographic and hazard exposure had indirect effects on mitigation incentive adoption expectations that were mediated by the psychological variables. The results also revealed differences in the factors affecting mitigation incentive adoption expectations for each of five specific incentive programs. Overall, the results suggest that hazard managers are more likely to increase participation in mitigation incentive programs if they provide messages that repeatedly (thus increasing hazard intrusiveness) remind people of the likelihood of severe negative consequences of hurricane impact (thus increasing risk perception).     

我国低碳生物技术发展的法律激励机制探索

低碳生物技术应用于能源与环境等领域将能缓解能源需求,改善生态环境,实现经济与社会的可持续发展。我国低碳生物技术的法律激励机制应体现在统筹规划与约束性目标、研发投入支持、财政与税收优惠、收购激励与政府采购以及培育和完善市场等方面。低碳生物技术发展不仅需要一整套规范的、系统的激励机制,而且还应落实到现实运作中,实现其高效性和有效性的统一。由此,需要政府在战略规划与计划、法律法规及其配套、产业管理与市场监管、经济与财税优惠等方面完善体制,也需要企业和市场理性发展,形成从制度设计到技术产业化的良性运行。     

Attempts to Increase Vehicle Safety-Belt Use Among Industry Workers

Abstract

A multiple intervention level hierarchy was evaluated with systematic implementation of successive interventions over a period of two years. Successive applications of written prompts, goal-setting, goal-setting plus feedback, and promise-card commitment interventions did not significantly impact the safety-belt use of 556 employees at a manufacturing plant in southwest Virginia. A modest increase in safety-belt use (from 59% to 68%) occurred only when a promise-card commitment strategy was combined with an incentive/reward strategy. These data support a multiple intervention level hierarchy which suggests that repeated attempts to change behavior with interventions at the same level of intrusiveness will not affect behavior uninfluenced by the first attempt at that level. A flow of behavior change model (Geller, 1999) is used to explain the impact of interventions on people at different stages of readiness for behavior change and to extend the multiple intervention level model. Suggestions are given for selecting the most appropriate behavior change strategy for large-scale applications.     

绿色建筑发展和推广的国外经验借鉴

国外绿色建筑发展的实践表明，以可持续发展原则为指导的立法是实现建筑可持续发展的保障，政府采取的经济激励措施调动了投资者和消费者的积极性，而在制定和完善绿色建筑评估认证体系中，相关的行业组织则发挥了重要作用，同时，绿色建筑的教育和培训计划畅通了信息交流的渠道，扩大了市场需求。     

城市政府执行力及其实际操作

城市政府作为城镇化进程中的基本主体,其所具备的能力和所发挥的作用成为理论研究的热点和实务关注的焦点。城市政府执行力作为城市政府的一个基本能力,也有理由成为日后我国城市发展治理中的新研究方向。这种理论判断基于城镇化进程本身的现实诉求和当前理论界研究的不足。由此,城市政府执行力研究的基本任务包括概念界定、概念操作化、案例编写等,而研究中必须注意研究视角的系统性、研究方法的科学性、研究成果的实用性等问题。

Differentiating Processes of Control and Understanding in the Early Development of Emotion and Cognition

In this study, we examined the hypothesis that preschoolers' performance on emotion and cognitive tasks is organized into discrete processes of control and understanding within the domains of emotion and cognition. Additionally, we examined the relations among component processes using mother report, behavioral observation, and physiological measures of emotion control. Participants were 263 children (42 percent non‐White) and their mothers. Results indicated that the three approaches of measuring emotion control were unrelated. Regardless of the measurement method, a four‐factor solution differentiating emotion control and understanding and cognitive control and understanding fits the data better than did either of two two‐factor models, one based on domains of emotion and cognition across processes, and one based on processes of control and understanding across domains. Results of this research replicate those of Leerkes et al. in describing a differentiated underlying structure of emotion and cognition processes in early childhood while also extending these conclusions across samples and across measurement approaches for assessing emotion control.

高校图书馆人力资源管理现状及其对策

图书馆是高校教学科研高质量进行的重要保障之一.然而高校图书馆多年来一直都被束缚在传统的人事制度和资源分配制度之下,改革进度不大,严重影响了图书馆的建设.笔者认为高校图书馆的建设进入到一个"以人为本"的阶段,以读者为中心开展多种服务,满足多种需要;以馆员为中心,提供宽松的环境发挥其主观能动性和创造性,从而促使高校图书馆进一步发展.而这一切都要先从图书馆的人力资源建设做起.
