Japanese and American Children's Reasoning about Accepting Credit for Prosocial Behavior

Children's reasoning about the appropriateness of accepting credit for one's own prosocial behavior was examined. Participants aged 7–11 years old in Japan and the USA (total N = 206) were presented with a series of stories in which a protagonist performs a good deed and is asked about it by another character. Across stories, the protagonist either truthfully acknowledges the deed or falsely denies it, in a statement that is made either in public or in private, and is addressed to either a teacher or to a peer. As predicted, Japanese children judged protagonists less favorably when they acknowledged the good deed in public rather than in private. Further, Japanese children tended to view modest lies more favorably overall than did children in the USA. These results point to the importance of modesty in Japan and to the ways in which Japanese children take into account the social context of communication when deciding whether it is appropriate for individuals to convey information about themselves.     

新时期我国价格波动的主要影响因素及发展趋势

十一五期间我国主要价格指数均呈现出较快上升后快速回落的特点,但与上世纪八九十年代相比,我国价格波动趋于平缓,价格波动的影响因素也在发生变化:农副产品和资源性产品价格对价格总水平的影响加大,国际传导因素日益突出。随着我国主要农产品、资源性产品对国际市场依赖程度的进一步提高,国际市场初级产品价格波动加剧,十二五我国价格水平将呈现前低后高,温和上涨的趋势。     

产学研结合与社会发展

产学研结合不仅是一种教育模式,更是一种科技创新转换和社会发展模式。产学研结合研究结合国外经营,有些模式可以借鉴,但基于中国自己国情,中国有自己不同模式。基于此,对于产学研结合在中国发展的未来给以展望,知识产权保护,高校多元治理,充分调动各方积极性,联合高校政府企业社会各方进行跨区域跨学科的综合合作。     

以人为本的社会属性与实现途径

中国共产党创立的科学发展观,强调核心是以人为本,其中的“人”是全体人、多需人、多代人。社会主义制度从根本上铲除了人的劳动成果异化为奴役人的工具的社会基础,人民群众成为社会的真正主人,中国共产党除了人民群众根本利益以外,没有任何特殊利益,这就为人的自由全面发展开辟出广阔的实现途径。

可持续发展动态评价研究——以湖北省为例

在阐明可持续发展基本理论的基础上，根据省情，从经济、社会、资源、环境四方面构建湖北省可持续发展指标体系，针对小样本数据特点，运用灰色关联分析法、偏最小二乘回归对其可持续发展状况进行动态评价。     

关于地区经济发展潜力指标体系的思考

社会经济量化研究是目前中国社会经济研究的主要方式，是符合当前国际社会经济研究发展潮流的，也是大势所趋。社会经济量化研究这一方式所借助的研究手段主要包含两个方面：一是建立科学、可行的指标体系；二是量化分析的方法或模型的应用。研究要取得成功，首先要有合理、科学的指标体系，在此基础上方能展开各种模型的应用，以达到对社会经济现象的新的认识。只有通过对地区经济发展从概念到实际内容的定性分析，并结合实际指标理论以及实现指标的可能性，方能对地区经济发展潜力评价指标体系以及一般评价指标体系的建立进行比较充分和完整的讨论。

Quantifying the Distribution of Inhalation Exposure in Human Populations: 2. Distributions of Time Spent by Adults, Adolescents, and Children at Home, at Work, and at School

Using distributions of time spent at various ventilation levels, ranges of inhalation exposure in the population can be established. Distributions of exposure time were determined using results of a study by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) which focused on time spent by humans participating in various activities and the locations where the activities occurred. The daily at-home activities from the CARB study were assigned to one of three ventilation levels, generating aggregate time periods. Distinct age and gender populations were identified, and distributions for aggregate time were established for these populations at each of the ventilation levels. In addition to aggregate time spent at home, distributions for various ages and genders were established for aggregate time spent at school and work. By combining distributions of aggregate time with corresponding ventilation rates, the distribution of inhalation rates can be established for at home, at work, and at school exposures.
