浅探唐人小说的因果报应模式

因果报应是佛教主要教义之一,它于东汉末年随佛学东渐,登陆中土,与中国固有的因果报应意识相结合,形成具有中国特色的因果报应观。这种新型的观念逐渐为广大民众所接受,至唐代,在唐人小说中出现了人世、冥间、畜道及天界四种主要的报应模式,影响波及后世的文学创作。

从颠覆童话创作传统到批判西方现代文明病——艾克絮佩里在《小王子》中的文体创新及思想

法国作家艾克絮佩里的《小王子》成为半个多世纪畅销书,其成功首先在于文体上大胆创新,颠覆了童话创作的传统,变写给儿童的童话为写给成人的童话;其次是它的两个思想内涵:一方面超前地批判了当时西方刚刚萌芽的现代文明病;一方面在古老而永恒的爱情主题中,倡导了新的生活艺术。作者是以赤子和童子的诚挚与清纯之心构建他的作品,字里行间浸透着作者的心路历程。     

网络小说接受的程式化现象

艺术接受程式化是指受众倾向于按照既有的心理模式或思维定势接受作品,受众的接受动机主要为消遣、娱乐,接受状态比较被动,接受效果主要为表层愉悦。当下网络小说接受的程式化现象主要表现为三个方面,即内容选择类型化、关注热点快速更替和接受视角单一化。网络小说接受的程式化现象是由复杂的社会条件和受众固有的接受心理决定的,有其存在的正当性与合理性,但其对艺术的负面效应也不应忽视。     

Moving On From Supportive Housing (MOSH): Development and evaluation of a transitional skill-building curriculum for providers helping residents exit homeless services

This article describes the development and evaluation of MOSH (Moving On From Supportive Housing), a transitional skill-building curriculum for providers helping residents exit homeless services to mainstream housing without embedded supports. In this evaluation, we assess the feasibility, acceptability, fit, and potential efficacy of the MOSH curriculum to improve proximal provider-level outcomes, including self-efficacy to provide MOSH-related independent living skills and supports. Homeless-services providers (N = 49) from a range of programs and settings participated in the training. Findings from focus groups and pre- and posttest surveys indicate high levels of overall satisfaction with the training. The majority of trainees perceived the training to be useful to their work and potentially useful for service recipients, felt the training would fit well within their existing day-to-day work, and said they were very likely to use MOSH skills in such work. Statistically significant improvements in self-efficacy regarding all skills but one were also found. MOSH holds promise as an intervention that can enhance provider practice and promotion of independent living skills in homeless services. Although these initial findings on MOSH are encouraging, further research will be needed to evaluate provider knowledge gains and effective use of these skills in practice.

Who Is the Residential Parent? Understanding Discrepancies in Unmarried Parents' Reports

Research examining parental reports of children's living arrangements has often relied on information about legally ordered custody agreements following divorce. This analysis used data from matched pairs of parents (N = 1,156) in the Fragile Families and Child Wellbeing Study who live apart to compare mother and father reports of their child's residence 5 years after a nonmarital birth. The authors found that over one third of unmarried parents disagreed about who their child lived with and that conflicting reports were much more likely when fathers spent nights with the mother (an indicator of part‐time cohabitation) and had overnights with the child on their own. The results further suggest that discrepancies in unmarried parents' reports were more closely associated with the complexity and ambiguity of their living situations than with the quality of their relationships with each other. Implications for measuring children's living arrangements in families formed outside of marriage are discussed.     

城市农民工随迁子女义务教育政策及其完善：以广东为例

Divorce,living arrangements,and material well-being during the transition to adulthood in rural Malawi

In this paper, we use longitudinal data to investigate how parental death and divorce influence young women’s own experience of divorce in Malawi, a setting where women marry relatively early and unions are fragile. We find that maternal death and parental divorce are positively associated with divorce for young women but, after controlling for socio-demographic and marital characteristics, only the association with maternal death remains statistically significant. Maternal and paternal death are both strongly associated with women’s post-divorce living arrangements, which in turn affects their material well-being. This finding suggests that divorcing at a young age shapes the subsequent life chances of women; although some women return to their parental home and may have the opportunity to reset the transition to adulthood, other women begin their 20s as head of their own household and with considerable material disadvantage.
