关于宗教与社会主义社会相适应的思考

引导宗教与社会主义社会相适应是我国宗教工作的出发点和落脚点,是我国宗教工作方针的重要组成部分。本文从宗教与其所处的社会相适应是宗教历史和发展的必然、引导宗教与社会主义社会相适应原则的确立是马克思主义宗教观的丰富和发展、宗教从其自身条件来看是能够与社会主义社会相适应的以及探索宗教与社会主义社会相适应的途径和方法四个方面阐述了宗教与社会主义社会相适应这一论断的科学内涵和现实意义。     

明清时期瑶族地区的学校教育

明清时期,瑶族地区的学校教育得到了前所未有的发展,封建统治阶级在瑶族地区大力兴办儒学、社学、义学,推动了瑶族子弟向学之风的形成,培养了一批瑶族知识分子。但受瑶族社会经济发展不平衡性的影响,瑶族地区教育发展的不平衡性亦十分突出,并一直影响至今。

Understanding Estimators of Treatment Effects in Regression Discontinuity Designs

In this paper, we propose two new estimators of treatment effects in regression discontinuity designs. These estimators can aid understanding of the existing estimators such as the local polynomial estimator and the partially linear estimator. The first estimator is the partially polynomial estimator which extends the partially linear estimator by further incorporating derivative differences of the conditional mean of the outcome on the two sides of the discontinuity point. This estimator is related to the local polynomial estimator by a relocalization effect. Unlike the partially linear estimator, this estimator can achieve the optimal rate of convergence even under broader regularity conditions. The second estimator is an instrumental variable estimator in the fuzzy design. This estimator will reduce to the local polynomial estimator if higher order endogeneities are neglected. We study the asymptotic properties of these two estimators and conduct simulation studies to confirm the theoretical analysis.     

Computing the log concave NPMLE for interval censored data

In analyzing interval censored data, a non-parametric estimator is often desired due to difficulties in assessing model fits. Because of this, the non-parametric maximum likelihood estimator (NPMLE) is often the default estimator. However, the estimates for values of interest of the survival function, such as the quantiles, have very large standard errors due to the jagged form of the estimator. By forcing the estimator to be constrained to the class of log concave functions, the estimator is ensured to have a smooth survival estimate which has much better operating characteristics than the unconstrained NPMLE, without needing to specify a parametric family or smoothing parameter. In this paper, we first prove that the likelihood can be maximized under a finite set of parameters under mild conditions, although the log likelihood function is not strictly concave. We then present an efficient algorithm for computing a local maximum of the likelihood function. Using our fast new algorithm, we present evidence from simulated current status data suggesting that the rate of convergence of the log-concave estimator is faster (between \(n^{2/5}\) and \(n^{1/2}\)) than the unconstrained NPMLE (between \(n^{1/3}\) and \(n^{1/2}\)).     

特征AHP在高校教师教学质量评定中的应用

本文针对高校教师教学质量的评定提出了一种特征层次分析法。首先通过分析教学质量的影响因素,建立三层层次分析模型。在其基础上引入特征法,选取特征群并确定特征群中个体的权重,利用反算法根据组合权重及方案层权重,求取准则层评定指标权重,避免了不同质指标间对比的不确定性,摒除了专家直接给出评定指标对比矩阵的主观性,减少了对教师评定过程的不一致性和不完备性。     

Opportunities for woman-initiated HIV prevention methods among female sex workers in southern China

Rapid changes in China over the past two decades have led to significant problems associated with population migration and changing social attitudes, including a growing sex industry and concurrent increases in STIs and HIV. This article reports results of an exploratory study of microbicide acceptability and readiness and current HIV prevention efforts among female sex workers in two rural and one urban town in Hainan and Guangxi Provinces in southern China. The study focused on these women's knowledge and cultural understandings of options for protecting themselves from exposure to STIs and HIV, and the potential viability and acceptability of woman-initiated prevention methods. We report on ethnographic elicitation interviews conducted with women working within informal sex-work establishments (hotels, massage and beauty parlors, roadside restaurants, boarding houses). We discuss implications of these findings for further promotion of woman-initiated prevention methods such as microbicides and female condoms among female sex workers in China.     

现代性与当代审美文化的结构

当代审美文化的结构性生成是在现代性进程中发生的。我们可以用“生活/艺术”、“大众/精英”、“保守/前卫”这三对范畴来描述当代审美文化的内部结构。值得注意的是,在事实性的领域中这三对范畴之间的斜线(/)不是断然明确而固定不变的,正是这条斜线的颤动、扭曲、变化甚至消失和再生,标志着当代审美文化活生生的生命存在与运动。     

论新闻语言的主观化

新闻报道有其客观性原则,但整个新闻传播活动却充满了主观性。主观性体现在很多方面,新闻语言的主观化就是最重要的方面之一。从总体上看,新闻事实的外化过程就是实现语言的主观化过程;从手段方面看,焦点标记词的使用、焦点位置的安排、主观评价意图的外显等都在实现新闻语言主观化上发挥重要作用。
