家庭老年照料对女性就业影响的异质性

基于1993—2011年"中国健康与营养调查"数据,本文采用IV-Probit和IV-Tobit方法控制内生性问题,从多个维度探讨家庭老年照料对女性劳动参与率和劳动时间的影响.总体而言,家庭老年照料会使女性劳动参与率下降4.5％,每周劳动时间减少2.7小时.分区域看,家庭老年照料对农村女性劳动参与率和劳动时间的影响大于城镇女性;从居住方式看,与父母(公婆)同住对女性劳动参与率的影响较大,但对劳动时间的影响相对较小;从家庭结构看,当兄弟姐妹数量较多时,家庭老年照料不会对女性就业造成影响;就是否照顾儿童而言,与仅照顾老人的女性相比,同时照顾儿童和老人的女性劳动参与率和劳动时间双双下降.另外,年龄和受教育程度对女性劳动参与率和劳动时间的作用也存在一定的差异性.基于实证结果,本文提出了相应的政策建议.     

Balanced consistency and balanced cost reduction for sequencing problems

We investigate the implications of balanced consistency and balanced cost reduction in the context of sequencing problems. Balanced consistency requires that the effect on the payoff from the departure of one agent to another agent should be equal between any two agents. On the other hand, balanced cost reduction requires that if one agent leaves a problem, then the total payoffs of the remaining agents should be affected by the amount previously assigned to the leaving agent. We show that the minimal transfer rule is the only rule satisfying efficiency and Pareto indifference together with either one of our two main axioms, balanced consistency and balanced cost reduction.     

MORE INFORMATION IS NOT ALWAYS BETTER: THE CASE OF VOLUNTARY PROVISION OF ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY

We use a new U.S. survey on pro‐environmental behaviors, attitudes, and knowledge and find that individuals engage in activities that they believe are more effective in reducing carbon emissions, regardless of whether or not these beliefs are accurate. We find that low provision of the public good is greater among people who believe they cannot do much for the environment and do not consider themselves environmentalists. A policy implication of our results is that the effect of more accurate information on the provision of the public good is ambiguous. (JEL Q50, Q54, C10)     

A usability gap between older adults and younger adults on interface design of an Internet-based telemedicine system

Internet-based telemedicine is becoming an effective tool to deliver home-healthcare services and health information on demand, especially in rural areas, where there is often a large elderly population with greater rates of preventable chronic diseases. However, the designs of current interfaces for these internet-based telemedicine systems do not take elderly user characteristics into consideration. This study conducted usability testing on the interface of an internet-based telemedicine system using two different age groups, young adults and older adults. Differences in overall performance and satisfaction between the two groups were identified. Based on these results, a future direction is suggested for the interfaces of Internet-based telemedicine systems.

人口发展功能分区与主体功能分区的比较研究

以人口发展功能分区和主体功能分区的内涵特征为逻辑研究起点,采用规范研究与归纳总结相结合的研究方法,从功能区划的角度对两者的总体关系进行了比较分析。对比结果显示,两种区划都是我国体现人与自然关系的一种空间管制手段,但在功能、性质、作用和管理等方面存在的差异。在此基础上,通过找出两种功能区划统筹协调中存在的问题,简要地提出了协调两者的几点建议。

社会系统工程视角下新时代公共卫生治理的特点和要素分析

目前,以多元主体共同参与为特点之一的治理理论逐渐融入卫生和健康事业的发展中。文章基于社会系统工程理论范畴下的综合集成法第一步,以文献收集与分析为具体研究方法,围绕公共卫生治理研究主题,将相关的情报、资料、数据和相关领域专家的实践经验分为“政策文件”“理论争鸣”和“治理实践”三类,归纳出公共卫生治理客体综合性和主体协同性、治理全方位和纵向连续性、治理专业性和决策科学性三大特点,并阐明人流、物流、货币流（资金流）、信息流与知识流、技术流五类治理要素的内容与关系,最终提出综合治理与分化治理结合、资源整合与要素协同并重、“平时常态治理”与“战时超常态治理”结合等治理建议。
