Procreative attitudes of newly married couples

Results are presented from a 1985 survey conducted among newly married couples in Poland concerning ideal and planned number of children. Both husbands and wives participated in the survey. Comparisons are made with results from a previous survey undertaken in 1975.     

Fertility prospects in Poland

The three phases of the demographic transition in Poland are described with emphasis on changes in fertility. The author notes that the country had entered the third phase of low fertility by 1965. Despite a slight temporary increase due to pronatalist incentives, fertility has since remained low and will probably continue at this level or decline further.     

认罪认罚量刑从宽实效研究——基于故意伤害罪轻罪的数据解读

我国认罪认罚从宽制度设计具有明显的公正优先价值导向。通过构建非线性量刑模型分析177161份故意伤害罪致人轻伤的初审判决书发现,司法实践中表现出明显的“从宽”克制倾向：认罪认罚对轻罪量刑的作用倾向于在“底线”游走,接近量刑情节“坦白”;传统量刑情节仍在习惯性适用,认罪认罚发挥实效的空间不足。在法定主义背景下推动更高层次上公正与效率的统一,可以考虑,一方面建立认罪认罚分级分类制度,适当加大对轻罪的从宽幅度;另一方面扩大认罪认罚从宽幅度的法定空间,在立法上赋予认罪认罚“减轻”情节地位,破解量刑折扣零和博弈的困局。     

Stimulating high performance in frontline staff

When the author of this article found herself in need of emergency medical help, her role reversed from physician to patient. Unlike many patients who are traumatized by an emergency department visit, Dr. Blumberg was pleased with her treatment. However, in later reviewing the experience with her nonphysician husband, she was amazed to learn that he was left with negative feelings about how he was treated by the frontline staff and about the appearance of the facility. As a result, Dr. Blumberg wrote this article detailing the importance of frontline staff performance and exploring ways staff can be motivated to gain maximum job and patient satisfaction.     

受控核聚变的一种新途径──低能注入式磁盖势阱约束法受控核聚变

提出了磁盖势阱（ＭＬＰＷ）一种静电装置,该装置是在球形静电势阱的外围加上磁盖而构成的,可用于受控核聚变．通过建立磁盖势阱中带电粒子的运动方程并取单粒子谐振子近似以及运用自洽场的统计方法,球形聚变炉内大量带电粒子的集体行为被计算机所研究和模拟．由于使用了电场与磁场的联合约束,与单独的磁约束或惯性约束受控核聚变相比,所需达到的技术指标将有所改善,工程技术上的难度也会有所降低

The author analyzes the demographic characteristics of the elderly population in Poland. The focus is on the spatial distribution of the elderly around the country.     

Lactation and fertility in Rural Bangladesh

Summary Analysis of data from various phases of a study of post-partum amenorrhoea in Bangladesh illustrated good aggregate consistency of response on menstrual status, but less individual consistency on duration of post-partum amenorrhoea. Using life table techniques, the median duration of amenorrhoea was calculated as 19.9 months for women with births between February and September 1974. There were substantial seasonal variations in duration, with the median decreasing from 21.5 months for women with February births to 16.9 months for those with September births. By contrast, the median duration of post-partum amenorrhoea varies by only two months for women in the lowest and highest quartiles of weight and weight for height. The seasonal pattern was similar for all weight groups.
