论委托代理关系与会计控制权

会计控制权作为现代企业的一种权利安排，对代理关系机制和企业发展有重　要的影响。现代企业的会计控制权主要掌握在代理人一方，由于代理人与委托人之间在目标　利益上的不一致性，代理人可能利用对会计控制权的实际控制优势对会计信息进行盈余管理　甚至非法操纵，损害委托人的利益。因此，必须完善委托代理机制，加强对会计控制权的约　束和控制力度。

信誉主体及其产权基础

经济学视域中的信誉是坚持诚实交易、信守合约所获得的声誉。经济学所分析的信誉主体是指那些诚实交易、信守合约的个人和组织。从现实社会看,经济学的信誉主体仅仅是市场主体之一部分。由市场主体必须是产权主体的命题,可以逻辑地推导出信誉主体必须是产权主体的命题。产权是信誉主体确立的基础,原因在于第一,置信的承诺显然与主体履约能力的大小密切相关;第二,交易性互动必须建立在交易各方的产权基础之上;第三,有恒产者追求的已不再是短期利益的最大化,而是长期利益的最大化,如果失信将面临巨大的风险。

Child‐Care Usage and Mother‐Infant “Quality Time”

Mothers' time‐use patterns were compared in families in which infants spent more than 30 hours per week in child care (In‐Care group; n= 143) versus 0 hours per week (At‐Home group; n= 183) from birth to 6 months of age. In‐Care group mothers spent about 12 fewer hours per week interacting with their infants, for about 32% less time; fathers of these infants were more involved in caregiving. The groups did not differ in the quality of mother‐infant interaction. In the In‐Care group, quantity of interaction was related to greater separation anxiety and concerns about effects of maternal employment. Time‐use data were not related to child outcomes at 15 months of age. Results suggest that the effect of extensive time spent apart on the quantity and quality of mother‐infant interaction may be smaller than anticipated.     

Studying and Measuring Civility: A Framework, Trends and Scale

Four essential questions for the study of civility involve developing a definition of the term, determining its effects, establishing trends, and predicting the consequences of civility. A framework for studying it includes the actors, their gender, situations and settings, occupational role requirements, the cultural imperatives defining civility, and the processes through which it is learned. Objective measures of civility in the United States show its variability and change. Four items in the 1996 General Social Survey (GSS) are combined to form a scale of civility. Correlates of the scale show that civility does not differ by gender, color, or region. It is weakly associated with income but is significantly associated with education, occupation, and health. Age, education, and health provide a predictive model of civility. Anger, an emotional aspect of interpersonal exchange, reveals reactions characteristic of civil behavior: waiting for anger to pass before responding, trying to forget the incident, not thinking of revenge, not walking away from the situation, and not yelling or hitting. Hypotheses are proposed for further study that involves age, marital status, occupation, health, and emotional control.     

Understanding Unemployment Across California Counties

Unemployment rates differ widely and persistently across counties. This article examines equilibrium forces related to this geographic disparity with a focus on California. We show that although seasonal variation in employment can account for some of the differences, it cannot explain the total variation. Factors such as educational attainment, age, and gender appear to be strongly related to unemployment differences. Individuals living in higher‐unemployment areas also have a lower propensity to migrate. Because migration is usually considered to be the main equilibrating force, this evidence helps further explain why unemployment rates across counties are persistently different.
