海外华侨与闽南侨乡家族文化——以晋江石圳村闽南李氏迎祖为例

闽南是我国著名的侨乡。闽南文化糅合了中原文化、本土文化和海外文化。闽南的发展历程决定海外移民必然是闽南文化形成中的重要影响因素。时至今日,华侨仍在闽南文化的传承上起着举足轻重的作用,而历久不衰的闽南文化也成为加强华侨对家乡的认同感的重要纽带。本文以2002年石圳村举行的“闽南李氏迎祖”活动为切入点,管窥闽南文化的重要组成单元——闽南侨乡家族文化与海外华侨之间的关系。     

英语学术论文中的遁言研究

学术论文写作并非是不受作者主观影响的就事论事的客观陈述,成功的学术英语写作需要借助遁言运用以达到特定的交际目的.对遁言的运用和分布的研究结果表明:遁言是学术语篇社团成员广泛使用的一种修辞手段,学术英语中的遁言现象不仅是作者、读者、语篇三者交互的结果,也是用语言形式体现作者心理取向的产物,是一种认知情态.遁言研究对学术英语具有重要意义.     

新型农村社区建设中保障农民权益的对策研究

新型农村社区建设是我国破除城乡二元结构、推进城镇化的一次有益探索,主要是通过对部分农村自然村的统一规划和整合,引导农民告别原有的生产和生活方式,建设类似于城镇社区但又有自身特色的新型农村社区。通过城乡政府、社区组织、社会力量以及广大农民群众的共同合力,保证新型农村社区健康、快速地发展,让农民群众参与进来,共同分享现代化成果。同时,建设新型农村社区要以人为本,必须充分保障农民群众的各种权利和利益,包括经济、政治、教育、文化、医疗、社会保障等方方面面。因此,保障农民群众的权益,是体现农民群众在新型社区建设中主体性地位的重要方面,也是实现＂人的城镇化＂的重要基石。

A Framework for Understanding Uncertainty in Seismic Risk Assessment

A better understanding of the uncertainty that exists in models used for seismic risk assessment is critical to improving risk-based decisions pertaining to earthquake safety. Current models estimating the probability of collapse of a building do not consider comprehensively the nature and impact of uncertainty. This article presents a model framework to enhance seismic risk assessment and thus gives decisionmakers a fuller understanding of the nature and limitations of the estimates. This can help ensure that risks are not over- or underestimated and the value of acquiring accurate data is appreciated fully. The methodology presented provides a novel treatment of uncertainties in input variables, their propagation through the model, and their effect on the results. The study presents ranges of possible annual collapse probabilities for different case studies on buildings in different parts of the world, exposed to different levels of seismicity, and with different vulnerabilities. A global sensitivity analysis was conducted to determine the significance of uncertain variables. Two key outcomes are (1) that the uncertainty in ground-motion conversion equations has the largest effect on the uncertainty in the calculation of annual collapse probability; and (2) the vulnerability of a building appears to have an effect on the range of annual collapse probabilities produced, i.e., the level of uncertainty in the estimate of annual collapse probability, with less vulnerable buildings having a smaller uncertainty.     

Examining collaboration across organizations in an age-friendly community

ABSTRACT

Collaboration among organizations is fundamental to promoting age-friendly environments. This study questions: To what extent do organizations collaborate with other organizations in age-friendly communities to provide services to older adults? This study draws on 48 semi-structured qualitative interviews with representatives of organizations that provide services to older adults in an age-friendly community. Findings demonstrated that organizations can engage in collaboration and cooperation across multiple sectors of service delivery and across multiple types of organizations. Nevertheless, some organizations were not collaborating; older adults receiving services at these organizations may miss opportunities to connect to complementary services that can meet their holistic needs.     

A new variant of dual-record population estimation with an application in remote indigenous communities

Dual-record system methods are commonly used as a basis for population estimation. A basic assumption is that the units sampled are drawn only from the population to be estimated. This assumption cannot be met for remote Indigenous communities in Australia. A new variant of dual-record population estimation is presented, which relies on the availability of specific additional information to relax the assumption of perfect frame specification. This variant is applied to two remote Indigenous communities in the Northern Territory of Australia, using locally available data sources. Further theoretical exploration of this method is presented along with possible applications in estimating area-enumerated populations and census coverage.     

自信性认知逻辑

认知T-原则是一种过强的认知原则,一般的认知不具有此性质。"逻辑全能性质"不只是"理想认知主体"才具有的认知性质,一般的"理性认知主体"也具有某些"逻辑全能"的性质。在一种修正的可能世界语义学下,削弱了"逻辑全能问题",并且保留了那些合理的认知性质。认知T-原则在这种语义学下,不会有效。自信性以及弱自信性认知逻辑系统刻画了认知主体的自信性和弱自信性。这两个系统相对于这种语义学有可靠性和完全性。     

怀疑逻辑的弗协调方案探赜

目的：提供一个建立在弗协调认知逻辑基础上的包含三分认知世界思想的怀疑逻辑构造方案。方法在系统 SPN 内定义相关的认知模态算子。结果怀疑逻辑三分认知世界的设想得以实现，同时由于弗协调认知逻辑的原因，一些怀疑逻辑公式的有效性发生了变化。
