Similarities and differences in program registers: A case study

Researchers, clinicians, and other professionals are increasingly in need of cost-effective, evidence-based programs and practices. However, these individuals may lack the time and, for some, the required expertise to search for and identify such interventions. To address this concern, several online registers that list or categorize programs according to their empirical evidence of effectiveness have been established. Although these registers are designed to simplify the task of selecting evidence-based interventions, the use of distinct review processes and standards by each register creates discrepancies in final program classifications, which can pose a challenge for users. The present case study highlights three programs that have been evaluated by more than one register and have received similar or different classifications. Reasons for inconsistencies are discussed, and several recommendations for evaluating organizations and register users are provided to enhance the functionality and ease of use of online program registers.     

20世纪中期英国双轨核政策的困境--以取消“蓝光”导弹项目为中心的考察

二战后英国一直奉行双轨核政策，即坚持发展本国独立核威慑力量与保持对美国的核依赖并举，但1960年英国取消“蓝光”导弹项目是英国双轨核政策陷入困境的临界点。英国双轨核政策面临本土核威慑力量的规模、独立核威慑力量的存在价值以及在野党和民众对核政策的质疑和对抗等问题。正是英国双轨核政策内在矛盾的激化与美英核“依存”关系的不对称与不对等导致英国核政策走向失衡。面对此，麦克米伦政府依然选择沿袭双轨核政策，其主要原因是：继续与美国进行核合作可以节省英国的核研发成本，密切美英特殊关系；继续保持一定程度的独立核威慑，可使英国避免成为美国的“卫星国”，并有利于加强其与欧洲的关系，为欧洲防务作出自己的贡献。     

高校基建工程招标问题研究

高校的基本建设要适应建筑市场的运行规律。因此,高校实行招标投标管理,既成效显著,又提高了基建管理水平。高校建筑工程招标一般分设计招标与施工招标两类,主要有公开招标、邀请招标、协商议标三种方式。要严格遵守招标投标工作程序,认真制定招标文件。做好招标工作的策略包括掌握信息、全面测算、公正决标等。     

关于'财政投融资'范畴的认识

'融资'仅仅是一个资金来源的范畴,不是资金运用的方式,放确切地说应称'财政投融资';'投资'是无偿还是有偿,取决于政府预算与财政投融资的关系及财政投融资资助项目的性质;财政投融资应以实现特定政策目标为目的,不一定形成实物资本;以'财政投融资'取代'财政信用',应当以此为契机,使政府的金融活动在运作和管理上走向规范化;'公共信用'的提法比'财政投融资'能更好地反映出政府金融活动的本质特征。     

Examining the Student's Decision to Pursue a Joint Graduate Degree Program in Social Work and the Law

In response to economic and educational trends, an increasing number of American universities are offering joint graduate degree programs in social work and the law. However, little is known about what drives a student to pursue study in these programs. This research study involved qualitative interviews with nine students in the United States either currently enrolled in a joint degree program in social work and law or who considered the joint degree program, but chose a single degree program instead. Interviews focused on what factors drew students to, or deterred students from, dual matriculation. Grounded theory analysis was used to identify themes across interviews. The findings can inform development of new joint degree programs in social work and law, as well as guide improvement of recruitment and retention practices for existing programs.     

Parental voices on Individualized Education Programs: ‘Oh,IEP meeting tomorrow? Rum tonight!’

The Individualized Education Program (IEP) was developed as a part of US Public Law 94-142 related to educating students with disabilities. The aim of the IEP process was to ensure that educators and parents are involved in collaboratively creating a formalized plan for instruction that will address unique students’ needs. However, the IEP process has created unintended consequences such as depersonalized meetings, and a focus on paperwork and compliance rather than collaboration with parents. The parents interviewed in this study offered a number of recommendations on how to make both the process and the product of IEP meetings more meaningful.

Discrete Sequential Search with Group Activities*

Equipment failures can have significant implications in terms of cost and customer satisfaction. Reducing the time required to find the cause of a failure can provide large cost savings and help preserve customer goodwill. Single‐item discrete sequential search models can be used to sequence the tasks in diagnostic search to minimize the expected time required to find the cause of the failure. We increase the utility of the single‐item discrete sequential search model by developing a formulation that includes simple precedence relationships as well as sequence dependent relationships defined by group activities. This formulation can be applied to a number of other problems including determining the sequence for multiple quality control tests on an item, scheduling oil well workovers to maximize the expected increase in oil production, and sequencing tasks in a research project where there is a technological risk associated with each task.     

中国银行核心系统项目群管理执行力的研究

核心银行系统,是商业银行最重要的软件系统。核心银行系统的构建,是通过一系列互相关联的软件开发项目群来实现的。如何对项目群进行有效管理是金融软件项目管理的热点问题。通过建立项目矩阵,从而引入项目集群分析方法,是一个可推广的办法。本文进一步通过因子分析法从执行力角度对核心银行系统的软件项目集群进行了综合评价,并给出相关管理建议,从而建立了项目集群分析的一套方法。
