兰州城关区回族居住格局研究

本文运用都市人类学的研究方法,对兰州市城关区回族的居住格局进行了研究。研究表明,随着民族迁移、社会发展、城市化进程的加快,聚居区转变为杂居区,以及城区边缘地带出现的新聚居区,这种变化还在进行之中。这种居住格局的变化虽然促进了民族团结、社会安定与发展,但是也出现了一些新问题。为此,本文对未来回族的居住格局进行了初步设想。     

A Dynamic Model of Demand for Houses and Neighborhoods

This paper develops a dynamic model of neighborhood choice along with a computationally light multi‐step estimator. The proposed empirical framework captures observed and unobserved preference heterogeneity across households and locations in a flexible way. We estimate the model using a newly assembled data set that matches demographic information from mortgage applications to the universe of housing transactions in the San Francisco Bay Area from 1994 to 2004. The results provide the first estimates of the marginal willingness to pay for several non‐marketed amenities—neighborhood air pollution, violent crime, and racial composition—in a dynamic framework. Comparing these estimates with those from a static version of the model highlights several important biases that arise when dynamic considerations are ignored.     

Loss and grief: The experience of transition to residential aged care

There is growing recognition of the experience of non-death-related loss and grief. One unexplored area of non-death-related loss and grief is associated with older people’s transition from home to residential aged care (RAC). This paper reports findings from a qualitative study that explored the experiences of people living in RAC, carer-relatives of people living in RAC and RAC staff. Using theories of loss and grief, the paper identifies features of the transition to RAC that are associated with unresolved loss and maladaptation to changed circumstances, and the types of support that would mitigate these. Using a series of focus groups with both residents and carer-relatives, as well as staff, the study found that residents and their families need more support to negotiate the multiple, often necessarily hasty decisions and bureaucratic requirements associated with transitioning to RAC, while simultaneously experiencing loss and grief. The types of support that families would welcome from service providers include facilitating shared decision making, valuing family and community carer expertise and providing practical information and assistance to fulfil administrative obligations.     

The Mediating Effect of Resilience Between Social Support for Exercise and Resident Satisfaction in Assisted Living

This study examined whether residents' level of resilience mediated the relationship between social support for exercise from staff and resident satisfaction in assisted living. This was a secondary data analysis using baseline data from a function-focused care intervention study including 171 residents from four assisted living facilities. Using structural equation modeling, we found that mood and social support for exercise from staff were the only variables associated with resilience. Mood, gender, cognition, and social support for exercise from staff directly influenced resident satisfaction and explained 31% of the variance in the model. Implications for future research and practice are discussed.     

城市居住空间结构的分异研究——以杭州市为例

居住空间是城市社会空间的一个重要的组成部分.随着城市化的大规模扩展,城市居住空间的结构分异已然成为不争的客观事实.通过对杭州市商品住宅面积、类型和价格分异的讨论,勾勒出目前城市居住空间结构分异的特点.在此基础上,透过阶层分化与居住空间结构之间的关系,来探究居住空间结构分异的动力机制,以便提供一些居住融合的策略性建议.     

居住分异与社会距离

通过对一个新建社区的形成过程和居住现状的考察,分析了国内"居住分异"的社会分化现象。通过数据分析发现,居住分异以后,群体分化程度被强化了,它使居民之间的社会距离扩大、疏离感增强。这种状况不利于社会团结与和谐社会的建设。我国正处在城市化高速发展的进程中,如果没有明确的政策干预,任由房地产市场按照这样的情况发展下去,居住分异与社会距离问题会变得更加严重。

居民生活能耗增长的分解与影响因素研究——基于习惯形成视角

伴随环境问题的日益紧迫,居民家庭生活中的能耗与碳排放问题逐渐成为今后社会关注的重要方面,通过将居民消费研究领域的习惯形成模型引入到居民生活能耗的分析框架中,计算中国居民生活能耗中的习惯量,研究中国居民生活能耗增长的影响因素。研究结果显示,中国居民生活能耗中存在较大的习惯性成分。通过将居民生活能耗中的习惯因素扣除后,基于协整方程,发现生活能耗中非习惯性成分与中国经济增长和城市化之间是同向变动关系,与工业化是反向变动关系。从降低生活能耗的角度提出了节能减排的相关政策建议,认为:居民的节能消费行为习惯的形成以及节能技术推广应用,在抑制居民生活能耗过快增长中的地位至关重要。     

我国消费需求不足的深层次原因及政策取向

收入决定消费。20世纪90年代中期以后我国消费需求不足的根本原因在于长期以来居民收入增长速度低于GDP增长速度。低收入和高增长构成我国经济运行的典型特征。因此,应努力改变过去那种粗放型经济增长方式,并把提高居民收入作为拉动内需的一项长期发展战略。     

浅析晋商大院居住空间的美学特征

大院民居的空间内容包罗万象,主要表现在居住和民居的样式上.人们对自己能感觉到的空间,常常赋予某些意义和象征,因此形成了熔建筑的实用、认知、审美,有时兼有崇拜观念于一炉的空间意识,使得大院民居的居住空间在布局安排上表现出了变幻多姿的特点,同时折射出了晋商独特的审美意识和深厚的文化底蕴.
