How Does Women’s Decision-Making Power Affect Budget Share,Nutrition and Education in Pakistan?

Understanding the effects of power distribution, particularly women’s decision making, on human development is important. This study used a set of direct measures of decision-making power from the Pakistan Social and Living Standard Measurement Survey and examined the relationship between women’s decision-making power and the food budget share, nutrition and child schooling. It found that in Pakistan, the relationship between women’s decision-making power and nutrition was not linear and varied depending on rural or urban residence. There was no clear evidence that higher women’s decision-making power would lead to better nutrition availability in Pakistan, but overall households were more likely to consume less grain and more vegetables. When women had higher decision-making power, children, particularly rural girls, were more likely to be enrolled in school.     

Understanding the Dynamics of the Individual Donor’s Trust Damage in the Philanthropic Sector

Although trust is long known to be critical to predict behaviors in a charitable context, little research has examined trust damage and its effects on giving behavior. Trust damage is an intermediate state between trust and distrust, rather than a simple reversal or extension, and can change over time. Our research explores individual donor’s trust damage through a dynamic evolution. Across the longitudinal survey, we conclude that the trust damage of pre-giving, giving, and post-giving stage plays different roles in the decision-making process. Trust damage does not play a direct role in the giving intention, but it can indirectly affect giving intention through its impact on perceived benefit and perceived risk. Individual donor’s satisfaction has a strong effect on post-giving trust or continual trust damage, which in turn positively affects future giving intention and behavior. Several important insights for practitioners in the nonprofit sector are also discussed.

Feature screening in ultrahigh-dimensional additive Cox model

The additive Cox model is flexible and powerful for modelling the dynamic changes of regression coefficients in the survival analysis. This paper is concerned with feature screening for the additive Cox model with ultrahigh-dimensional covariates. The proposed screening procedure can effectively identify active predictors. That is, with probability tending to one, the selected variable set includes the actual active predictors. In order to carry out the proposed procedure, we propose an effective algorithm and establish the ascent property of the proposed algorithm. We further prove that the proposed procedure possesses the sure screening property. Furthermore, we examine the finite sample performance of the proposed procedure via Monte Carlo simulations, and illustrate the proposed procedure by a real data example.

论中日茶道文化的意境与精神气质

中日茶道文化是东方文化中的两朵奇葩,但是由于诸多原因,中日茶道文化在意境和精神气质上有着较大区别:中国的茶道仪式自然随和,圆润融通,日本的茶道仪式则过于拘于程序和礼节;中国将饮茶发展为日常生活艺术,日本则将饮茶变为俨然清规;中国茶文化是雅俗共赏的大众文化,日本茶文化则是高高在上的仪式文化。

冯特民族心理学思想及其当代意义

冯特作为科学心理学的创始人而为人们所熟知,其早年建立了科学主义取向的个体心理学。多年研究之后,冯特意识到仅仅研究个体心理并不能对人类心理形成完整理解,因而冯特在其晚年转向并建立了人文主义取向的民族心理学,他认为民族心理学研究是对个体心理学研究的补充和延展。冯特民族心理的基本宗旨在于考察人类群体心理及其发展过程,其研究方法为文化产品分析法,主要是对团体生活和人类心理发展的不同阶段进行分析研究。冯特民族心理学思想的特点在于注重文化在民族心理发展过程中的作用,强调人类心理的群体性,注重人文主义取向的研究范式。冯特的民族心理学思想对当今心理学研究的纵深发展与跨学科延伸具有历史性的理论价值,对促进我国民族心理学发展与心理学内源性本土化发展具有实践指导意义,同时对中华民族共同体的研究也具有一定启发意义。
