Chinese Parenting Behaviors,Adolescent School Adjustment,and Problem Behavior

The present research examined the relationship between supportive and controlling dimensions of parenting behaviors and Chinese adolescent outcomes (school adjustment and problem behavior). Researchers collected self-report data from 589 adolescents in Hangzhou, China. Results showed the factor structure for the Parent Behavior Measure in the Chinese sample was different from the factor structure based on Western research. Specifically, paternal support did not emerge as a viable factor. Parental monitoring and involvement predicted positive adolescent outcomes, whereas punitiveness and permissiveness predicted negative outcomes. Surprisingly, maternal support predicted more adolescent problem behavior, especially for boys. Guilt induction, love withdrawal, and positive induction did not predict any significant adolescent outcomes when other parenting behaviors were controlled. School adjustment mediated and gender moderated the relationship between parenting and adolescent problem behavior. The importance of considering parenting behaviors, adolescent school adjustment, gender, and cultural norms when examining adolescent problem behavior was discussed.     

Family Process as Mediator of Biology X Environment Interaction

SUMMARY

The present study used Baron and Kenny's (1986) mediated moderation model to explore a potential mediator-parenting behaviors-of an interaction between biological risk and adoptive parent psychopathology which has been shown to significantly predict adolescent problem behaviors in a sample of adult adoptees (M_age = 25; n = 133). The outcomes of interest were retrospective reports on adoptee adolescent nonaggressive conduct disordered behaviors and aggressive/oppositional behaviors. Predictors were biological risk in the birth parents of the adoptees, psychopathology in the adoptive parents, and retrospectively reported parenting behaviors of the adoptive parents. The mediated moderation model was not supported due to the nonsignificance of the biological risk X adoptive parent psychopathology interaction term. However, support for an independence model was supported in that biological risk interacted with maternal warmth and overprotection to predict adolescent adoptee behavior. Greater maternal warmth decreased problem behaviors among adoptees with a biological risk for psychopathology; whereas greater maternal overprotection increased adolescent problem behaviors among adoptees with biological risk. Fathers' parenting behaviors did not interact with biological risk to predict adolescent adoptee behavior. Finally, the findings were consistent across type of behavior suggesting a homogenous effect.     

Thinking about difference in student supervision

Abstract

Over the past decade, educators have given greater recognition to the influence of race and culture on practice and policy. Whilst educators are now including specific courses that take account of diversity, scant attention has been paid to how these issues may be addressed in student supervision. This article reports on a qualitative study examining how three experienced supervisors addressed difference in student supervision. Supervisory approaches were compared examining the supervisors' goals, focus, supervisory strategies, theoretical orientation, contribution made to student learning and the limitation of their particular approach. These findings emphasise the complexity of addressing difference in supervision, and suggest that some additional issues to address in supervision.     

程序公平对组织公民行为的影响——组织支持感的中介效应和积极互惠的调节模型检验

为探讨组织支持感在程序公平与组织公民行为之间的中介作用及积极互惠在程序公平、组织支持感与组织公民行为之间的调节效应,采用了随机抽样方式,选取珠三角400名中小企业员工,运用程序公平问卷、组织支持感问卷、组织公民行为问卷和积极互惠问卷进行调查。结果显示,组织支持感在程序公平与组织公民行为各因子之间起到中介作用;积极互惠在程序公平与组织公民行为三个维度调节中效应显著。     

建筑安全氛围对安全行为的作用机理——基于DEA方法

针对当前建筑企业安全事故频发的现状,研究建筑安全氛围对员工安全行为的作用机理,以指导企业进行安全绩效改善。由于环境变量的干扰,安全氛围通常不会完全转化为安全行为,其影响过程总会存在投入的损失和浪费。基于数据包络分析（DEA）方法开发出一套三阶段半参数效率评价模型,能对安全氛围向安全行为转化的效率和环境变量的影响程度进行定量分析,并能指导企业进行安全工作的改进。对北京某知名建筑企业的实证研究验证了两类环境变量影响的显著性,识别出引发效率损失的因素（无效因素）,据此对参与调研的项目的安全绩效提出了改进建议。     

中国区域人口素质变迁与经济增长研究

文章利用人口总数、人口出生率、平均受教育年限、教育基尼系数、卫生经费比、老年人口抚养比、第三产业就业人数比和城镇人口比等8个指标,选取32个省市自治区1997 -2010年数据,采用因子分析法构造人口综合素质指数,并运用道格拉斯生产函数模型分总体和地区进行混合面板数据回归,发现人口素质对经济增长影响显著,且东、中、西部和东北地区人口素质差异明显,对经济增长的贡献率也相差悬殊,表明西部地区正在由劳动密集型发展阶段向资本拉动型阶段转变,中部和东北地区由资本拉动型阶段向人口素质推动型阶段转变,东部地区属于人口素质推动经济不断优化阶段.最后,还针对区域发展差异提出了相应的举措和建议.     

FDI 对我国就业影响的动态效应与区域差异u1——基于动态面板数据模型的广义矩(GMM)分析方法

本文选取1996—2011年我国的省际面板数据,利用动态面板数据模型广义矩(GMM)分析方法,对 FDI 对我国就业影响的动态效应与区域差异进行了实证分析.研究结果发现,FDI 对我国就业影响的区域差异显著,整体上具有显著的挤出效应;仅滞后1期 FDI 对中部地区当年就业的创造效应显著,而其他时域的 FDI 对当年就业的影响均是负向的.因此,引进 FDI 无法吸纳更多的劳动力,依靠 FDI 很难缓解国内的就业压力.     

“There is a Massacre of Women”: Violence Against Women,Feminist Activism,and Hashtags in Turkey

Abstract

In academic and popular debates about sexualisation, the “mainstreaming of sex in the West” is a common catchphrase. As noted by post-colonial and critical race scholars, categories such as “the West” remain powerful discursive ideas shaping how both researchers and researched border and construct race, difference, and sexuality. However, there is very little research that employs a post-colonial analysis of young people’s negotiations of sexualised media, most particularly studies that elucidate how the oppositional frameworks of colonial discourse sets up normative and “othered” subjectivities. In order to address this gap, I turn to Stuart Hall’s classic paper The West and the Rest to reflect on a project undertaken in South Australia with young people from a broad range of cultural backgrounds. In a fascinating set of reflections, the young people present a powerful set of challenges to the binary of the West and the Rest through their narratives on sexualised media. Taken together, these complex and sometimes contradictory narratives remind us of the problems associated with talking in generalised and universalising ways about “sexualisation in the West.”

“微公益”行为、政府引导及其作用机制

随着互联网技术的快速发展普及,一种基于网络交互媒体的新的公益模式——"微公益"正快速兴起。"微公益"的出现体现了我国社会对公益的追求及对传统向善文化的传承,但"微公益"还处于起步阶段,需要参与其中的个行为主体共同努力以保障其健康成长。政府作为"微公益"行为的特殊参与主体,对"微公益"行为过程的健康成长的科学引导,将有效推动全社会精神文明的建设,从而为我国政治经济社会的全面繁荣添砖加瓦。
