A modified LGB method for detecting significant effects based on a half-normal probability plot

In analyzing data from unreplicated factorial designs, the half-normal probability plot is commonly used to screen for the ‘vital few’ effects. Recently, many formal methods have been proposed to overcome the subjectivity of this plot. Lawson (1998) (hereafter denoted as LGB) suggested a hybrid method based on the half-normal probability plot, which is a blend of Lenth (1989) and Loh (1992) method. The method consists of fitting a simple least squares line to the inliers, which are determined by the Lenth method. The effects exceeding the prediction limits based on the fitted line are candidates for the vital few effects. To improve the accuracy of partitioning the effects into inliers and outliers, we propose a modified LGB method (hereafter denoted as the Mod_LGB method), in which more outliers can be classified by using both the Carling’s modification of the box plot (Carling, 2000) and Lenth method. If no outlier exists or there is a wide range in the inliers as determined by the Lenth method, more outliers can be found by the Carling method. A simulation study is conducted in unreplicated $2^4$ designs with the number of active effects ranging from 1 to 6 to compare the efficiency of the Lenth method, original LGB methods, and the proposed modified version of the LGB method.     

社会工作专业教学组织机制：问题与选择

优化教学组织机制是提高社会工作专业教育质量不可或缺的重要一环。面对社会工作专业课堂教学和实践教学他组织与自组织相分离的现实困境,教师要科学选择介入策略,勇于革新教学方法,以实现教学组织机制的优化。     

孙中山的人学思想及其现实意义

孙中山的人学思想产生于19世纪末20世纪初的近代中国,是在其"致力国民革命四十年,求中国之自由平等"的斗争实践中逐渐形成的。它内涵丰富、意蕴深远,涉及互助人性论、民生观、自由平等观、"生元"说以及人生观等方面的内容。探讨发掘孙中山的人学思想中蕴含的积极合理成分,在当代无疑具有重要的现实意义。     

上海外来白领生存压力与社会信心调查

上海外来白领生存压力与社会信心调查显示,外来白领对上海整体较为满意,对上海的社会信心较高,同时在工作生活中也面临住房、健康、经济收支、身份认同等四大突出压力。上海应积极出台有效政策措施,努力疏解当前上海外来白领工作生活中的突出压力。     

后殖民主义视角下的《地之国》解读

约瑟夫·奥尼尔的《地之国》被认为是近年来最出色的表现"9.11事件"后美国的作品之一,但字里行间表现出的后殖民主义特征才是其最引人瞩目之处。小说以回忆录的方式记叙了两个不同肤色、不同阶层的男人在美国的境遇和友谊。本文试图从后殖民主义理论出发,从移民的美国梦想、身份建构和文化认同几个方面阐释作品的深刻内涵,探索众多移民在西方文化中心论依旧盛行的今天,在全球化的时代获得物质和精神双重满足的途径。     

社区学院应致力于提高农民工的素质

农民工是城镇化、城市现代化进程中一支重要的建设力量,是全面实现小康社会须依赖的主力军,他们是促进我国永续发展的强大力量,但他们又是一弱势族群。在城市化、工业化中农民工已发挥、还将发挥重要作用,我国的发展与未来与多达2亿的农民工群体及素质的提高息息相关。基于劳动者发展和社会进步的诉求,重视、致力于提高农民工素质是社区教育重点和社区学院的重要工作。     

A Study of a Network Meeting: Exploring the Interplay between Inner and Outer Dialogues in Significant and Meaningful Moments

The present study is part of a series of qualitative studies focusing on dialogic practice in southern Norway. In this article, we present a qualitative study of a network meeting focusing on the interplay between the participants' inner and outer dialogues. The network meeting is between an adolescent boy, his mother and two network therapists, the same adolescent case discussed previously in this journal by Bøe et al. ( 2013 ). The aim of this study is to explore how the interplay between inner and outer dialogues contributes to significant and meaningful moments for the interlocutors. A multiperspective methodology is used that combines video recordings of a network meeting and participant interviews with text analysis. Our research found the interplay has an important role in understanding the emergence of significant and meaningful moments in therapy. A one‐sided focus on participants' utterances or inner dialogues was insufficient to explain their significance and meaning to the interlocutors. A dialogical approach provides a theoretical frame and concepts that are useful in investigations of therapeutic conversations.     

The prevalence and composition of asset poverty in Canada: 1999, 2005, and 2012

A household is considered asset poor if its assets (financial assets or net worth, taken separately) are insufficient to maintain well‐being at a low‐income threshold for 3 months. We provide the first national‐level estimates of asset poverty for Canada, using the 1999, 2005, and 2012 cycles of the Survey of Financial Security, and juxtapose these estimates with income poverty. The analysis provides new insight into economic insecurity by showing that asset poverty rates are consistently two to three times higher than income poverty rates. In addition to the prevalence of asset poverty across socio‐demographic groups, we analyzed how the composition of the poor change over time. Age and geography shape the risk for asset poverty in distinct ways. We found that while education appears to play a comparable role in shaping both income poverty and asset poverty, immigration places Canadians at a relatively higher risk of income poverty but not asset poverty. Key Practitioner Message: ? Practitioners ought to consider assets as well as income in assessing economic vulnerability; ? Asset poverty levels are 2–3 times higher than income poverty levels; ? Certain groups (e.g., immigrants) may be income poor but maintain sufficient assets.     

顶罪替刑犯罪的刑法思考

当今代人顶罪替刑事件频现报端,而我国现行刑法却没有就顶替人犯罪作专门的规定,所以导致顶罪替刑在司法实践中的罪名归属存在争议。为了体现罪刑法定原则,应当将顶罪替刑行为设置为独立的罪名,与现行刑法中窝藏、包庇罪相区别。同时,还需要从犯罪构成要件中分析顶罪替刑罪的基本特征,解决司法实践中本罪的犯罪主体、共同犯罪等复杂问题,以期实现刑法规制的目的。     

论权力差异下的“他者化表征”——《浮生六记·闺房记乐》两译本对比例证分析

在后殖民翻译理论下,由于权力差异的存在,翻译成为占统治地位的强势文化与受统治的弱势文化间斗争的语域场。在此过程中,强势文化中的译者依据他们的主流诗学对弱势文化中的文本肆意地篡改、删节甚至添加,以此构塑其心目中东方的"他者"形象,并通过强势文化主流表征系统中的思想观念将其复制和流通,由此,弱势文化中的文学作品受到不公正的"他者化表征"。这种"他者化表征"在后殖民时期文学作品的翻译中表现形态为文本选择、翻译取向以及为翻译而写作,在林语堂译和雪莉.布莱克(Sh irley M.B lack)翻译的《浮生六记》两译本对比中表现得淋漓尽致。故此,处于非支配表征系统中的译者,为维护本族文化,应进行必要的"自我表征",即用异化的翻译策略彪炳文化差异,构建更理想的自身文化身份认同。
