Alone and adrift: The association between mass school shootings,school size,and student support

Background

School shootings have approached epidemic levels in recent years. While mental illness is undoubtedly involved in nearly all cases of mass school violence, we sought to determine how environmental context may exacerbate preexisting personal factors. The present study investigated the associations between mass school shootings, school enrollment size, student–teacher ratios, and student transitions.

Impact of job characteristics on turnover intention and the mediating effects of job satisfaction: experiences of home visiting geriatric care workers in Korea

This study investigated the effects of job characteristics on turnover intention and the mediating effects of job satisfaction. A survey of 317 Korean care workers currently providing in-home elderly care service in the city of Seoul and its suburbs was conducted. The results of multiple regressions and an analysis of mediating effects indicated that role ambiguity and workload had significant effects on turnover intention. In addition, job satisfaction had a mediating effect on the influence of role ambiguity and workload on turnover intention. Finally, theoretical and practical implications are discussed.     

Personality profiles of factitious disorder imposed by mothers: A comparative analysis

Factitious Disorder Imposed by Another (FDIA) can be difficult to expeditiously identify. Understanding personality characteristics of FDIA perpetrators via psychological assessment may decrease the time between initial abuse and identification of FDIA. Personality characteristics of FDIA mother-perpetrators were examined through a comparative analysis of MMPI-2 profiles. It was predicted that mother-perpetrators would have significantly higher overall profile elevations on the MMPI-2 and elevations on specific clinical scales than a comparative control group. Results indicated that mother-perpetrators displayed significantly higher, elevations on the Psychasthenia (Pt) and Schizophrenia (Sc) scales and a trend toward significantly higher elevation on the Psychopathic Deviate (Pd) scale than the control group. These findings, along with the demographic information obtained, establish a preliminary foundation for understanding an overall profile of mother-perpetrators.     

Designing a multiple state repetitive group sampling plan based on the coefficient of variation

A multiple state repetitive group sampling (MSRGS) plan is developed on the basis of the coefficient of variation (CV) of the quality characteristic which follows a normal distribution with unknown mean and variance. The optimal plan parameters of the proposed plan are solved by a nonlinear optimization model, which satisfies the given producer's risk and consumer's risk at the same time and minimizes the average sample number required for inspection. The advantages of the proposed MSRGS plan over the existing sampling plans are discussed. Finally an example is given to illustrate the proposed plan.     

An optional randomized response model for estimating a rare sensitive attribute using Poisson distribution

The crux of this article is to estimate the mean of the number of persons possessing a rare sensitive attribute based on the Mangat (1991 Mangat, N.S. (1991). An optional randomized response sampling technique using non–stigmatized attribute. Statistica. 51(4):595–602. [Google Scholar]) randomization device by utilizing the Poisson distribution in simple random sampling and stratified sampling. Properties of the proposed randomized response (RR) model have been studied along with recommendations. It is also shown that the proposed model is more efficient than that of Land et al. (2011 Land, M., Singh, S., Sedory, S.A. (2011). Estimation of a rare attribute using Poisson distribution. Statistics. 46(3):351–360.[Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) in simple random sampling and that of Lee et al. (2013 Lee, G.S., Uhm, D., Kim, J.M. (2013). Estimation of a rare sensitive attribute in stratified sampling using Poisson distribution. Statistics. 47(3):575–589.[Taylor &; Francis Online], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]) in stratified random sampling when the proportion of persons possessing a rare unrelated attribute is known. Numerical illustrations are also given in support of the present study.     

从马克思主义“民族化”到中国化马克思主义的民族特色

马克思主义"民族化"问题的实质在于如何正确处理马克思主义基本原理质的规定性与其在民族国家运用过程中个性化冲动之间的张力关系。一方面,马克思主义必须坚持与民族特色相结合,才能不断推动马克思主义的发展和实践活动的顺利开展;另一方面坚持民族特色不是对马克思主义基本原理指导地位的否定和背离,坚持马克思主义主体性是其应有之义。当代中国马克思主义较好地处理了坚持马克思主义原理普遍性与民族特色之间的张力关系,使中国化马克思主义彰显出鲜明的民族特色。     

中国特色社会管理:一个基于体系分析的解释框架

中国特色社会管理体系主要由价值分体系、规则分体系、组织分体系、方法分体系、评价分体系构成,中国特色社会主义是中国特色社会管理体系的根本基础。中国特色社会管理体系具有人本性、开放性、能动性、科学性、系统性特征。中国特色社会管理的体系改进的重点是要加强对体系的元治理,推动智慧驱动型社会管理体系建设、不断提高对"输入—输出"模式的管理能力。     

西方语言学关于内在体验性认知特质的文化之思

西方认知语言学经历了从唯理认知观到非理性认知观又到生存认知观的历史嬗变,这表明内在体验性的认知虽然是西方语言学在各个发展阶段上的共同特质,但它的哲学基础不仅不稳固,而且比较脆弱,这期间曾发生了从理性的自省到非理性的体验,从"在"的召唤到后现代的解构等几次重大的意义断裂。因其只强调语言意义的自生性、体验性的内在特质,忽视了语言对外在世界、经验事实或社会实践的依赖性特质,以至于常常使现代语言学之社会语用价值处于遮蔽状态。
