财政扶持政策对西部地区农民参加新农村合作医疗的影响——基于自然实验的研究途径

本文将对西部农民参加新农村合作医疗的财政扶持政策的实施作为一个自然实验,应用微观经济计量方法分析了财政扶持政策对西部农民参加新农村合作医疗的影响。研究结果表明,与2004年相比,2006年西部农民参加新农村合作医疗的概率增加了96.46%,说明针对西部农民参加新农村合作医疗的财政扶持政策作用效果显著。     

关于21世纪生态城市的构想

城市既是人类生存的重要场所，又是人类发展的重要基地。因此，城市的可持续发展不仅对城市本身具有重要意义，而且对全人类的生存和发展产生重要影响。随着人们对生活环境质量要求的不断提高，建设生态城市已经成为当今城市持续发展的必然选择。如何建设生态城市已经成为各地十分关心的问题，生态城市的建设不仅要有一个科学的高水平、高质量的生态城市规划，而且要精心做好生态城市设计，在规划、设计和实施建设中要充分利用自然生态基础。     

On designing an acceptance sampling plan for the Pareto lifetime model

In this paper, the design of reliability sampling plans for the Pareto lifetime model under progressive Type-II right censoring is considered. Sampling plans are derived using the decision theoretic approach with a suitable loss or cost function that consists of sampling cost, rejection cost, and acceptance cost. The decision rule is based on the estimated reliability function. Plans are constructed within the Bayesian context using the natural conjugate prior. Simulations for evaluating the Bayes risk are carried out and the optimal sampling plans are reported for various sample sizes, observed number of failures and removal probabilities.     

从“自然人”到“道德公民”——试论卢梭的道德教育观及现实启示

卢梭的道德教育思想是其道德共同体政治构想在教育领域的延伸。其任务在于培养自然人及道德公民,两者统一于人的自由的实现这一总体目标。符合人性发展规律的"以人为本"的教育理念是贯穿于自然人教育过程中的核心线索;而培养具有国家整体向心力的"爱国公民"则是道德公民教育阶段的终极旨归。卢梭的道德教育思想对于解决我国社会转型时期道德教育功利化、道德价值多元化等问题,重塑社会核心价值体系、有效发挥道德教育的育人功能具有重要的现实意义。     

Adolescent Victims of Natural Disasters: A Phenomenological Study on Lived Experiences and Behaviors Displayed after a Crisis

This qualitative study explored lived experiences and behavioral changes among 15 adolescent victims of natural disasters utilizing the behaviorism perspective. Volunteer adolescent victims participated in a semi-standardized open-end interview, and data were coded using pattern recognition, theme, and content analysis. Results identified that participants' most prevalent themes for behavioral changes were isolation, social withdrawal, increased arguments with family and friends, avoid relationships, and over-protectiveness. Prevalent themes for lived experiences were moving to a new home, changing schools, and mother or father lost job. The majority of the participants reported hurricanes as their natural disaster experience. In conclusion, adolescent victims reported multiple behavioral changes that were a result of a natural disaster such as hurricanes. Likewise, these victims reported facing many lived experiences after a natural disaster occurrence.     

Women's Hair Color and Survey Response Rate: A Field Experiment

Previous research found that survey response rates were influenced by physical characteristics of the interviewer. However, the effect of hair color on compliance to a survey request has never been studied. Female confederates wearing blond, brown, black, or red wigs solicited 1,200 male and female pedestrians for a survey. It was found those male passersby, but not the female, agreed more frequently to the confederates wearing blond wigs whereas they agreed less to the same confederates wearing red wigs. Greater youth and healthiness associated with blond hair in women is used to explain these results. The practical interest in face-to-face surveys is addressed.     

A Theory for Coloring Bivariate Statistical Maps

Consideration of some practical uses of statistical bivariate maps—for example, display of association between variables—leads to principles for making effective use of color to represent data values. Effective color schemes for bivariate maps are viewed as continuous transformations from color models to the unit square with appropriate restrictions involving hue, saturation, and brightness. Several schemes, including those used by the U.S. Census Bureau, are criticized on the basis of this theory.     

Counseling Strategies with Gay and Lesbian Youth

Counseling needs of gay and lesbian youth have not been adequately researched. Identification of these issues has only been underway for adequately researched. Identification of these issues has only been underway for approximately ten years, as service providers and researchers turned their attention to this population. Factors, which contribute to a presenting clinical picture, include stigmatization, hiding and isolation, a sense of being different, lack of family support, harassment, and violence. Each of these areas is discussed, integrating case vignettes and research findings.     

全球变暖与历史学发展的四个论题

气候变化科学对以人类为中心的人文主义史学具有重要影响。科学家关于气候变化的观点不仅挑战了人类支撑历史学这门学科的观念,而且挑战了后殖民与后帝国时代历史学家在过去20年来,回应战后非殖民地化与全球化势态时所运用的分析策略。现在的历史知识构建以人文主义史学关于人类历史与自然史古老区分的失效为历史学科的大前提,将人类视为一种地质力量的人类世观念严格限定了人文主义史学,要求资本主义历史与地球和人类进化的更大尺度的历史进行对话。有记载的历史与深层历史进行这种对话是一个探索历史理解界限的过程。     

满洲窗：中西文化融合的岭南传统建筑装饰元素

“满洲窗”是广东民间在清朝中后期至抗日战争前以广州为中心的珠江三角洲直至岭南的一些私家园林、民居及商住类建筑中比较常见的建筑装饰花窗的俗称.与常说的岭南传统建筑装饰元素三雕（木、砖、石）两塑（灰塑、陶塑）相比,“满洲窗”和两塑更加专属岭南.“满洲窗”的形成、发展其实是从一个侧面研究广州、岭南乃至中国进入近现代以来传统建筑文化与外来文化的融合及变革的过程.
