辽宁省城市居民最低生活保障标准的测定

最低生活保障标准是最低生活保障制度的核心,建立城市最低生活保障制度的难题在于：如何确定城市最低生活保障标准。利用扩展线性支出系统（ELES）模型,采用1999—2009年《辽宁统计年鉴》中有关城镇居民消费性支出分组数据,对辽宁省城市最低生活保障标准进行了测定,并与现行城市最低生活保障标准进行比较,从而得知现行低保标准偏低,现有城市最低生活保障制度尚不健全,亟需进一步完善。     

部分国家季度支出法国内生产总值核算方法与数据发布情况及启示

本文研究分析并归纳了经济合作与发展组织（OECD）34个成员国及巴西、俄罗斯、印度和南非等4个金砖国家季度支出法GDP核算的主要方法、资料来源及数据发布情况,提出要进一步提高基础数据质量,加快正式建立我国季度支出法GDP核算制度。     

中国城市居民最低生活保障水平分析

以2005年的统计数据为主要依据,通过测算及横向与纵向的比较,对我国城市居民最低生活保障水平进行了分析,目的在于廓清人们对中国目前最低生活保障水平的认识.综合分析表明,尽管在制度设计和具体实施中仍存在缺陷和问题,但保障水平过高肯定不是当前低保制度面临的问题,对低保"养懒汉"的抨击也是一种片面的夸大.     

财政支出绩效评价研究——以农村劳动力转移培训为例

对财政支出进行绩效评价是提高财政效率、改善公共资源配置的有效途径,也是落实科学发展观的重要举措。当前,各地政府加大了对农村劳动力转移培训的财政支持,那么巨额投入是否获得了预期的效果,财政资金在多大程度上改进了民生呢?本文尝试对农村劳动力转移培训的财政支出进行绩效评价,并以河南省开封市的阳光工程为例,对该评价体系进行实证运用。     

A validity assessment of the Progress out of Poverty Index (PPI)™

Development organisations need easy-to-use and quick-to-implement indicators to quantify poverty when requested to measure program impact. In this paper we assess the validity of the Progress out of Poverty Index (PPI)™, a country-specific indicator based on ten closed questions on directly observable household characteristics, by its compliance to the SMART criteria. Each response receives a pre-determined score, such that the sum of these scores can be converted into the likelihood the household is living below the poverty line. We focus on the PPI scorecard for Rwanda, which was validated using two national household surveys conducted in 2005/06 and 2010/11. The PPI is Specific, Measurable, Available cost effectively, and Timely available. Yet, its Relevance depends on the way it is used. Although it accurately distinguishes poor from non-poor households, making it a useful reporting tool, its limited sensitivity to changes in poverty status restricts its usefulness for evaluating the impact of development projects.

江苏省财政社会保障支出分析

通过对江苏省2002—2011年财政社会保障支出的分析,指出江苏省社会保障投入力度逐年增加。但与其他省份及发达国家相比,存在财政投入力度不大、增长弹性系数较小、区域差距和城乡差距虽然呈缩小趋势,绝对值仍然较大的问题。政府应加大对社会保障的投入力度,尤其要加强对经济落后地区和农村地区社会保障的投入,实现全省统筹,达到共同富裕的目标。     

Variance estimation in complex survey sampling for generalized linear models

Summary.  Complex survey sampling is often used to sample a fraction of a large finite population. In general, the survey is conducted so that each unit (e.g. subject) in the sample has a different probability of being selected into the sample. For generalizability of the sample to the population, both the design and the probability of being selected into the sample must be incorporated in the analysis. In this paper we focus on non-standard regression models for complex survey data. In our motivating example, which is based on data from the Medical Expenditure Panel Survey, the outcome variable is the subject's 'total health care expenditures in the year 2002'. Previous analyses of medical cost data suggest that the variance is approximately equal to the mean raised to the power of 1.5, which is a non-standard variance function. Currently, the regression parameters for this model cannot be easily estimated in standard statistical software packages. We propose a simple two-step method to obtain consistent regression parameter and variance estimates; the method proposed can be implemented within any standard sample survey package. The approach is applicable to complex sample surveys with any number of stages.     

财政支出水平对地区收入差距作用的统计评价

 我国的财政支出政策是影响地区间经济差距和社会福利水平差距的重要原因之一。随着区域经济发展不平衡,财政资源地区间配置不均等问题越发凸显,各地区人均财政支出的差距持续扩大,发达地区和欠发达地区的财政能力差距,特别是公共服务能力差距在扩大。本文从财政支出的角度对我国不同地区收入差距扩大的原因及其后果进行统计评价,并以此提出了财政对策的初步建议。     

政府研发投入规模的国际比较

文章以部分发达国家和新兴工业化国家为代表,对政府研发投入规模进行了国际比较。政府研发投入是带动整个国家研发投入,增强科技实力与经济增长的重要手段。国际经验表明,政府研发投入的规模决定了一国的科研投入水平,新兴工业化国家在科技追赶阶段,更需要政府投入的研发经费的超速增长。而我国目前政府研发投入的强度很低,与我国的经济实力乃至我国目前的经济社会发展战略很不相称。要实现产业结构的转型,提高政府研发投入强度已是迫在眉睫的任务。
