Do pollution emissions from livestock operations increase infant mortality rate (IMR)? A recent regression analysis of changes in IMR against changes in aggregate “animal units” (a weighted sum of cattle, pig, and poultry numbers) over time, for counties throughout the United States, suggested the provocative conclusion that they do: “[A] doubling of production leads to a 7.4% increase in infant mortality.” Yet, we find that regressing IMR changes against changes in specific components of “animal units” (cattle, pigs, and broilers) at the state level reveals statistically significant negative associations between changes in livestock production (especially, cattle production) and changes in IMR. We conclude that statistical associations between livestock variables and IMR variables are very sensitive to modeling choices (e.g., selection of explanatory variables, and use of specific animal types vs. aggregate “animal units). Such associations, whether positive or negative, do not warrant causal interpretation. We suggest that standard methods of quantitative risk assessment (QRA), including emissions release (source) models, fate and transport modeling, exposure assessment, and dose-response modeling, really are important—and indeed, perhaps, essential—for drawing valid causal inferences about health effects of exposures to guide sound, well-informed public health risk management policy. Reduced-form regression models, which skip most or all of these steps, can only quantify statistical associations (which may be due to model specification, variable selection, residual confounding, or other noncausal factors). Sound risk management requires the extra work needed to identify and model valid causal relations. 相似文献

As climate change has contributed to longer fire seasons and populations living in fire‐prone ecosystems increase, wildfires have begun to affect a growing number of people. As a result, interest in understanding the wildfire evacuation decision process has increased. Of particular interest is understanding why some people leave early, some choose to stay and defend their homes, and others wait to assess conditions before making a final decision. Individuals who tend to wait and see are of particular concern given the dangers of late evacuation. To understand what factors might influence different decisions, we surveyed homeowners in three areas in the United States that recently experienced a wildfire. The Protective Action Decision Model was used to identify a suite of factors previously identified as potentially relevant to evacuation decisions. Our results indicate that different beliefs about the efficacy of a particular response or action (evacuating or staying to defend), differences in risk attitudes, and emphasis on different cues to act (e.g., official warnings, environmental cues) are key factors underlying different responses. Further, latent class analysis indicates there are two general classes of individuals: those inclined to evacuate and those inclined to stay, and that a substantial portion of each class falls into the wait and see category. 相似文献

The distinction between ignorance about a parameter and knowing only a probability distribution for that parameter is of fundamental importance in risk assessment. Brief dialogs between a hypothetical decisionmaker and a risk assessor illustrate this point, showing that the distinction has real consequences. These dialogs are followed by a short exposition that places risk analysis in a decision‐theoretic framework, describes the important elements of that framework, and uses these to shed light on Terje Aven's criticism of nonprobabilistic purely “objective” methods. Suggestions are offered concerning a more effective approach to evaluating those methods. 相似文献

“通则不痛,痛则不通”说的是人自身和谐的问题。同理,作为一名现代领导者,也必须具备七个方面的要素,即信念、知识、经验、眼界、胸怀、能力、作风。这就好比人体七窍,只有七窍皆通,人的身体才能健康;只有七个方面的要素俱全,才能构建自身的和谐,实现和谐发展,成为一名合格的、优秀的乃至卓越的领导者;也只有造就了一大批高素质的干部队伍,我们党的事业才能真正兴旺发达。坚定的信念理想是人生的目标,信念则是对人生目标的崇奉程度。一个人的人生目标能不能恒久和达成,取决于对目标的追求是否执著,即是否具有坚定的信念。信念如灯,它能给一… 相似文献

We in health care are living and working in a world that, for all its technical changes, differs little in its basic assumptions, structures, payment systems, beliefs, expectations, and job titles from the world of health care a generation back. How much change can we expect over the coming years? A lot more than we are prepared for. Look at the array of new technologies headed our way, from genomic sciences to customized vaccinations. Many of the breakthroughs promise incredible abilities to prevent disease, to profile our proclivities, and to manage our genetic predispositions over long periods of time, rather than merely wait until the disease manifests in an acute phase, then treat the symptoms. Digital technologies bring physicians executives enormous opportunities for new ways of gathering, storing, and mining information, for new types of communication between medical professionals, for new communications with customers, and new ways of steering large, complex enterprises. Unprecedented opportunities for change keep piling in through the door. Vast pressures for change keep building from every side. And the rewards for anyone who can lead the change keep compounding. 相似文献

人们经常会碰到这样的领导者:整天有开不完的会,签不完的字,谈不完的话,出不完的差,接不完的电话,看不完的材料,扯不完的皮……忙得不可开交,好像哪里少了他都不行. 相似文献

领导干部是党的方针政策的宣传者、执行者,是带领部属拟定工作目标、完成工作任务的指引者和决策者,领导干部能否实施正确有力的领导,直接关系到党的方针政策贯彻落实的效果,关系到一个单位建设质量的高低。那么,作为领导干部,应该怎样对部属进行领导呢?我认为应该从以下几个方面进行。政策法规导方向。党的政策法规和上级的指示精神是方向性问题,领导干部一定要使部属树立方向意识,正确把握上级意图。一要督促学习明方向。对党的方针政策、上级的文件精神,领导干部要督促部属及时学习,逐字逐句弄懂,深刻领悟其中的内涵,把握精神实质,只有这… 相似文献

美籍华裔建筑设计师贝聿铭说过这样一句话:“如果你要创造令人舒畅的户内空间的话,那你就得考虑各个立体结构之间那些空着的地方。”以空间和谐求取构造完美,是建筑设计中的一个重要原则。其实,不仅在建筑领域,在领导工作中同样也应树立一定的空间意识,也就是说,领导者思考问题、处理事情不能固守着一种态势,不能把事情做得太满,要保持一定的弹性,懂得为事物留下一定的发展余地和生长空间。领导工作是一项复杂的系统工程,领导者要成为“能工巧匠”,必须善于把空间理念贯穿于领导工作的全过程。一、领导者要保留一定的决策空间。当今时代,新… 相似文献

思想是行动的先导,思想解放的程度决定着领导工作实践取得进展和成效的程度.江泽民同志最近号召我们要进一步解放思想,这是高瞻远瞩的战略思考.改革开放以来,我国社会主义建设事业之所以取得了举世瞩目的成就,一个根本原因就是邓小平同志抓住"什么是社会主义、怎样建设社会主义"这个根本问题,拨乱反正、实事求是,坚决冲破一切"左"的观念的束缚,转变观念,使全党的思想解放达到一个新的水平. 相似文献

古人云:"人非圣贤,孰能无过?"有了过错,要不要批评?当然要.正如下属有了成绩,领导要及时加以肯定和赞扬,促其再接再厉不断进步一样,下属有了缺点和错误,领导也要及时指出并加以批评,使之"急刹车",避免其在错误的道路上越走越远,以致出现更大偏差而影响全局工作. 相似文献
