发展政府与政府的科学发展

在中央提出科学发展观之后，各个领域都面临一个科学发展的问题。政府作为社会治理的主体，在推进科学发展上具有更为重要的作用，因此科学发展观要求政府自身必须首先科学发展。政府的科学发展必然包括政府自身的发展和面向社会治理能力的发展。果有善治则必有善政，因此必须大力发展政府，构建中国特色的发展政府学，借鉴全球发展政府的理论成果，研究中国政府发展的规律，为中国各级政府的改革和全面履行科学发展观职能提供理论及实践指导。     

市场竞争条件下成人高等教育发展的困境与突破

改革开放以来，我国经济体制从计划走向市场，并逐步趋于完善。经济体制的转变带来了成人高等教育活动的变革。市场竞争条件下成人高等教育发展呈现出竞争性、合作性、品牌化、多样性和适应性等特征。然而，我国成人高等教育却存在着地位不明、竞争力弱、质量偏低、单一化、趋同化等问题。我们只有对成人高等教育进行系统改革，才能建立与现代市场经济体系相适应的成人高等教育体系。

Multivariate distributions defined in terms of contours

The paper deals with the problem of using contours as the basis for defining probability distributions. First, the most general probability densities with given contours are obtained and the particular cases of circular and elliptical contours are dealt with. It is shown that the so-called elliptically contoured distributions do not include all possible cases. Next, the case of contours defined by polar coordinates is analyzed including its simulation and parameter estimation. Finally, the case of cumulative distribution functions with given contours is discussed. Several examples are used for illustrative purposes.     

近代资本主义生产生活方式对中国传统慈善事业的影响——以北京为例

以交通、通讯、新闻舆论等为典型代表的近代西方资本主义生产与生活方式传入中国后，它们或便利救济物资的调配，或加速救助对象的区域流动，或监督与制约救济事务的运转，或宣传与流播新型慈善思想等，从整体上对中国传统慈善活动的近代转型发挥强大的刺激与推动作用。

Effects of Marriage and Children on Financial Risk Tolerance: A Synthesis of Family Development and Prospect Theory

Family development and prospect theory were used as a framework to predict variability in individuals' subjective financial risk tolerance within distinct family structures. Gender, age, and income were expected to interact with the main effects of family structure (marital status and children). Theory-generated hypotheses were examined in Study 1 (data from university housing respondents, n = 76) and Study 2 (the 1998 Survey of Consumer Finances, n = 4,305). One family structure main effect (child presence) was significant for investment risk tolerance in both studies. Family structure interactions (marital status × age and child × income) were significant for employment risk (Study 1), and child × age was significant for investment risk in Study 2.     

中日文化差异与日语教学

中日两国一衣带水,相互毗邻,有着两千多年的友好交往历史。在语言文字方面两国人民互相学习,相互影响,有不少相同、相似之处。但其中也有一些看似相同,实际上已经出现差异并具有特色的词汇和习俗,弄清这些词汇和习俗差异对我们学习日语和同日本人交流大有益处。尤其是在日语教学中,把这些词汇与习俗的异同及时渗透给学生,把中日文化的对比融入日语语言教学中,既可大大地活跃课堂气氛,又可提高学生的积极性和交际水平、应用能力。     

A sociolinguistic application of Bakhtin's authoritative and internally persuasive discourse

Through the use of two central Bakhtinian concepts, authoritative and internally persuasive discourse (word), this paper examines the tension between the ideology of linguistic hegemony as a source of power in the Greek public sphere and the condition of language shift faced by the Albanian‐speaking communities of modern Greece. I argue here that a cautious application of these two notions, which are relevant to linguistic ideology, can reveal crucial aspects of two processes: that of subordination to and that of questioning of the dominant linguistic ideology by local Albanian‐speaking communities. Thus, in language shift contexts, it is possible that no simple relations obtain that place social agents in unquestionable and easily predictable positions. Such an approach proves useful for the sociolinguistic study of threatened language communities.     

Estimation of Hazard, Density and Survivor Functions for Randomly Censored Data

Maximum likelihood estimation and goodness-of-fit techniques are used within a competing risks framework to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of hazard, density, and survivor functions for randomly right-censored variables. Goodness-of- fit techniques are used to fit distributions to the crude lifetimes, which are used to obtain an estimate of the hazard function, which, in turn, is used to construct the survivor and density functions of the net lifetime of the variable of interest. If only one of the crude lifetimes can be adequately characterized by a parametric model, then semi-parametric estimates may be obtained using a maximum likelihood estimate of one crude lifetime and the empirical distribution function of the other. Simulation studies show that the survivor function estimates from crude lifetimes compare favourably with those given by the product-limit estimator when crude lifetimes are chosen correctly. Other advantages are discussed.
