Using the Ecological Model to understand influences on college student vaping

ABSTRACT

Objective The Ecological Model was used to examine the social and environmental influences of the college environment on e-cigarette use (vaping) among college students. Participants: Undergraduate college student e-cigarette users (vapers) across three large college campuses in the southwest US from Jan 2015- Aug 2016. Methods: Thirty-three interviews were conducted. Transcribed interviews were coded then analyzed for themes. Results: College student vapers report multiple levels of influence on their vaping beyond personal beliefs and peer influences, including parents, explicit campus and community messaging, community member requests, and respect for others. College student vapers also describe constant associations with smokers in allowable public places to vape. Conclusions: Parents, community members, campus policy, and the physical environment all influence where and when college students vape. Health communication messages to prevent college student vaping should incorporate alternative messages that are important to college students, such as respect for others and social image.     

美国生态戏剧的缘起与发展动向

美国生态戏剧是20世纪末兴起于美国并扩及欧美的一场新兴戏剧思潮和戏剧运动,作为生态戏剧策源地的美国取得的成就和产生的影响最大,至今方兴未艾。由于译介滞后等原因,国内对此知之甚少。文章通过对生态戏剧的命名梳理、概念界定和特征规范,探讨美国生态戏剧的缘起和发展动向,逐步将生态戏剧引入国内,推动当代戏剧在生态时代的绿色转向。     

高校生态文明意识教育路径研究

生态文明意识教育作为思想政治教育的重要内容,越来越受到高校的重视。当代大学生在“知”、“情”、“行”等方面都表现出一定的生态文明意识,但整体上并不乐观。究其原因,既有社会大环境因素,也有学生自身的因素。同时,高校教育的不完善也是大学生生态文明意识薄弱的重要原因。因此,高校应充分利用各种途径,如完善课程体系、建设生态校园、弘扬校园文化、发挥榜样作用等,来全方位地加强对大学生生态文明意识的教育与培养。     

移民分类研究

移民是自人类社会诞生以来从未间断过的世界范围内的人口迁移现象。移民有三个基本内涵和维度,一是空间维度,二是时间维度,三是数量维度。移民问题历来受到广泛关注和重视。在简要概括国际国内移民历史,梳理移民内涵的基础上,从移民迁移区域、主观意愿、诱导因素、移民开发目的等划分标准对移民类型进行了进一步分类,并对相应移民类型做简要说明和典型案例补充。     

低碳科技创新与文化产业融合发展研究

加强低碳科技创新,实现低碳科技与文化的融合,助推低碳文化和低碳经济社会发展是我国应对全球气候变化、主动承担国际减排责任、加快生态文明建设的重要战略选择。低碳科技创新是发展低碳文化、构建低碳社会的重要引擎,低碳文化发展是低碳科技创新的重要心理机制和社会基础。加强低碳文化科技创新,需要加强低碳科技创新的顶层设计、系统推进,加强低碳科技文化的公共服务供给,促进低碳文化产业和低碳社会的发展。     

需求导向的多元生态化大学英语课程体系构建——以独立学院为个案研究

城市外籍人口管理研究——以广州为例

中国巨大的发展成就吸引越来越多的外国人来到中国,这种趋势既是外籍人员趋利行为的结果,也是中国更多融入国际劳动力市场的表现,外籍人口问题将逐渐从社会边缘性问题向社会重大问题转变,广州的非籍人口问题就是这种转变的初现端倪,中国崛起必将迎来外籍人口问题的挑战。从美国民族融合的历程看,老移民把自己看作正统美国人,从维护自身利益出发,以偏见和歧视对待新移民,力图强迫新移民按照他们的要求进行"美国化",这种做法使种族矛盾越演越烈,历经多年仍然余毒未消。预见到我国外籍人口问题的发展趋势,有必要反思美国的移民社会融合教训,结合具有代表性的广州外籍人口问题,把广州在推进外籍人口社会融合方面的探索和创新上升到国家战略试点的高度予以重视,从经济融入、社会融入、文化融合、结构融合和身份认同的角度入手,探索符合中国经济社会状况的外籍人口社会融合的方式。     

Interpreting Home in the Transnational Discourse

ABSTRACT

The aim of this article is to present a selection of primary findings culled from empirical data collected in Dublin with post-European Union enlargement Polish migrants as the cohort in study. One aspect of the project was to investigate how that group interpreted home since they have left Poland. Based on the outcomes of interviews with thirty-one informants, the narratives reveal a group of individuals who continuously contest social constraints and push the boundaries of previously held notions of migration, identity, and home. This article situates their aspirations, preferences, and practices within discourses of transnationalism, thereby connecting their migration experiences with a consciousness of feeling at home in the world. This article breaks up “home” as interpreted by the informants into three categories—centered home, sentimental home, and transportable home. The wide range of perspectives held by informants and the inability to clearly define their position with regard to the notion of “home” reinforces the hypothesis of this article that, for a transnational cohort, the meaning of home is contested. In relation to the wider international literature regarding concepts of home, this article makes a contribution to the deepening scope of migration research in Ireland.     

建设美丽中国的法律制度回应——自然资源保护地役权制度的构建

党的十八大报告提出建设"美丽中国",而实现自然资源生态文明是建设美丽中国的重要途径。本文阐述了建设美丽中国与自然资源生态文明的关系,分析了目前我国建设生态文明所面临的法律制度问题,并且提出回应这一问题的关键是寻求私法上的制度以实现对自然资源的保护性利用,而以生态经济学为视角构建的自然资源保护地役权制度能够发挥积极作用。     

北疆草原生态安全与民族团结进步

内蒙古自治区位于祖国北部边陲,东西长2400多公里,南北宽1700多公里,总面积118.3万平方公里,是祖国北疆生态系统的前沿阵地。内蒙古草原总面积8666.7万公顷,其中有效天然牧场6818万公顷,占全国草场面积的27%。内蒙古自治区一直以其临近京津、横跨＂三北＂的重要地理位置和脆弱的生态环境条件,在我国的生态安全大局中占据格外突出地位。因此,保护、修复内蒙古草原生态功能区;构筑祖国北疆生态安全屏障;建立、健全因生态环境引发的社会矛盾化解机制,不仅关系到内蒙古民族地区、边疆地区的社会和谐与稳定问题,而且关系到祖国北疆生态安全问题。
