Wavelet density estimation for negatively associated stratified size-biased sample

This paper provides upper bounds of wavelet estimations on L^p (1≤p<∞) risk for a density function in Besov spaces based on negatively associated stratified size-biased random samples. It turns out that the classical theorem of Donoho, Johnstone, Kerkyacharian and Picard is completely extended to more general cases. More precisely, we consider the model with multiplication noise and allow the sample negatively associated. Our theory is illustrated with a simulation study.     

Anger Expression and Persistence in Young Children

This study investigated anger expression during toy removal (TR) in 92 young Chinese children, two to five years of age, and its relations to their persistence in responding to obstacles during two challenging tasks with highly desirable goals [TR and locked box (LB)] and one challenging task with a less desirable goal [impossible perfect circles (IPC)]. Anger expression during TR was positively associated with persistence during TR and LB but not during IPC. The results highlighted the positive effects of anger in the development of persistence.     

The Chinese Road in the Light of Historical Continuity

The Chinese road has deep historical roots. Its most striking feature is that it is marked by historical continuity rather than rupture, and the main force behind this continuity is its intrinsic dynamism and vitality. Unlike the paradigm of Eurocentrism or “Discovering History in China,” the comparative analytical paradigm discovers China through long-term comparisons with corresponding countries in the same time and space in an effort to find positive elements in the history of the Chinese road and to refute the long prevalent theory of Chinese stagnation. Seen over the course of world history, the impetus for the creation of the world’s most brilliant agrarian civilization was endogenous. This impetus was not a momentary “explosive force” but a sustainable institutional drive whose main constituents were the independent farming household, endogenous government capacity and adaptive national governance. In addition to the main theme of “permanent change,” Chinese development had a secondary theme of “cyclical change” which cannot be ignored. The roots of Chinese development are buried deep in the genes of this agrarian nation in the form of sticky institutions, bureaucratic inertia, arbitrary power, etc. Historical continuity provided a foundation for China’s creative revolution and development in modern times, ultimately laying down a socialist development road with Chinese characteristics, although this remains an unfinished relay process.     

论心理学实验证据对宗教认知优势理论的不充分性

当代宗教认知科学提出了宗教表征具有特定认知优势的主张,以解释宗教现象的复现性和普遍性.然而,该解释策略以人类心智中存在具有成熟自然性的、产物为概念表征的心智模块为前提,而宗教认知科学用以支撑这一前提的发展心理学实验证据和认知心理学实验证据只能分别证实人心中存在成熟自然的模块和产物为概念的模块,逻辑上无法构成对这一前提的完整支撑.同时,现有证据所支撑的成熟自然模块,其产物并不满足概念的组合性要求和同一性要求.宗教认知科学需要进一步补充实验证据或修正其理论观点.     

大学生社会主义核心价值观的培育系统与路径——基于社会生态系统理论的视角

大学生是社会主义核心价值观培育的重要人群。基于社会生态系统理论对大学生社会主义核心价值观培育的各层级系统的研究认为,新形势下大学生社会主义核心价值观培育的实现路径应切合大学生对社会主义核心价值观培育的内在需求,建立大学生社会主义核心价值培育的三位生态系统,促进各级系统之间的相互融合,推动系统良性运行。     

“90后”对社会主义核心价值观的认同及其影响因素

90后一代正处于15-24岁的青少年时期,是社会主义核心价值观培育与践行的重要人群。对上海、武汉和天津三地90后青少年的诚信观与友善观进行问卷调查结果表明,青少年对友善的认同显著高于对诚信的认同;随年级升高,诚信观趋向消极;女生对诚信和友善的认同均高于男生。家庭物质经济条件、生活安全感、亲子关系、同学关系、上网时间及青少年自我评价等对于社会主义核心价值观的认同影响显著。
