何处是家园--鲁迅小说《故乡》的文化解读

<故乡>不是一篇政治小说,用"农村经济的破产"这一流行的观点来概括它很不妥当.<故乡>所蕴藏的情感体验主要是陌生与孤独,所表现的是作者鲁迅精神家园失落以后虚无的生存状态,以及在虚无生存状态下顽强不息的精神追寻.

先锋小说中的词语超常搭配现象探微

先锋小说是20世纪80年代的一个重要的文学现象。以先锋小说中的词语超常搭配现象为研究对象,初步分析了先锋小说中的词语超常搭配在主谓结构、偏正结构、动宾结构、并列结构这四种句法结构中的体现,从而从一个侧面展现出先锋小说语言实验的特点。     

A propensity score matching analysis of the relationship between victim sex and capital juror decision-making in North Carolina

A small body of prior research has examined the impact of victim sex on jury death penalty decision-making and the majority of this research has demonstrated some evidence of a “female victim effect” such that cases involving a female victim are more likely to receive the death penalty than similarly situated cases with a male victim. However, within this line of research studies have suggested that victim sex may work in conjunction with other case characteristics. In order to further explore this phenomenon, the current study examines a near-population of death penalty cases from North Carolina (n = 1069) from 1977–2009 using propensity score matching. Results demonstrate that once cases are matched on more than 50 legal and extralegal case characteristics, there is no statistically significant or substantive link between victim sex and death penalty decision-making. Findings suggest that it is concrete differences in the legal and extralegal factors observed in cases with female victims compared to male victims that shape jury death sentence decisions rather than a direct effect of victim sex (before matching: OR = 1.53; 95% CI = 1.20–1.95; p < .001/after matching: OR = 0.90; 95% CI = 0.66–1.24; p = .52). Study limitations and implications are also discussed.     

论民间表演艺术集体表演者追索权立法保护

民间表演艺术集体表演者追索权是表演者权的重要内容,是新型独立权,因为其特殊性而相似但区别于邻接权。对该权利的保护,外国立法及国际公约均有规定,我国无明确立法。保护该权利对文化发展与民间艺术产业发展有重要意义。我国未来应该在权利主体、行使方法、保护期限、实施保障等方面对该权利进行立法保护。     

Noninformative priors for linear combinations of normal means with unequal variances

For normal populations with unequal variances, we develop matching priors and reference priors for a linear combination of the means. Here, we find three second-order matching priors: a highest posterior density (HPD) matching prior, a cumulative distribution function (CDF) matching prior, and a likelihood ratio (LR) matching prior. Furthermore, we show that the reference priors are all first-order matching priors, but that they do not satisfy the second-order matching criterion that establishes the symmetry and the unimodality of the posterior under the developed priors. The results of a simulation indicate that the second-order matching prior outperforms the reference priors in terms of matching the target coverage probabilities, in a frequentist sense. Finally, we compare the Bayesian credible intervals based on the developed priors with the confidence intervals derived from real data.     

Estimating the effectiveness of a misdemeanor drug diversion program using propensity score matching and survival analyses

This study analyzes three years of data on misdemeanor drug offenders in Winnebago County, Wisconsin. A portion of these offenders opted into a Misdemeanor Drug Diversion Program (MDDP) offered instead of traditional adjudication. Recidivism in the treatment and comparison groups is estimated using standard binary response techniques augmented with propensity score matching to address selection bias. Results show that the MDDP reduces the probability of re-offense by 16%, after adjusting for possible selection bias. Cox proportional hazard modeling is also used to assess time-to-re-offense differentials between the treatment and comparison groups. The survival analysis indicates that the hazard rate of re-offense is 60% lower per day among those treated with the MDDP program than those who did not complete the program. The average number of days to re-offense among those that do re-offend is 297 days in the treatment group and 203 days in the comparison group.     

从奈达的“对等”理论看译者的追求

译者追求的不同能反映出译者的翻译观,会牵涉到译文的标准,当然会产生不同的译文.奈达翻译理论的核心思想是"对等"理论,依靠读者反应确定译文的优劣,但不是追求与原语完全一致.其他中外翻译家也表达过类似的观点,许多翻译实例都可以体现追求与原语"完全一致"的译文的弊病.译者应该追求"最贴切的最自然的对等表达",译文应该符合读者的阅读习惯,而不应该是贴近或照搬原语的表达方式.     

Understanding Canonical Correlation through the General Linear Model and Principal Components

Canonical correlation has been little used and little understood, even by otherwise sophisticated analysts. An alternative approach to canonical correlation, based on a general linear multivariate model, is presented. Properties of principal component analysis are used to help explain the method. Standard computational methods for full rank canonical correlation, techniques for canonical correlation on component scores, and canonical correlation with less than full rank are discussed. They are seen to be essentially equivalent when the model equation for canonical correlation on component scores is presented. The two approaches to less than full rank situations are equivalent in some senses, but quite different in usefulness, depending on the application. An example dataset is analyzed in detail to help demonstrate the conclusions.     

游走叙事中的目标追求——以《西游记》和《堂吉诃德》为个案

＂游走式＂情节是长篇小说在发展演变中形成的展开情节的重要方式之一。在以＂游走＂情节作为主体的文本中,人物在漫长游走中的目标追求和无休止地游走与渴望归宿的目标期待对于丰富深化文本的内涵具有重要意义。本文从＂游走＂情节的角度还原分析《西游记》和《堂吉诃德》,认为《西游记》是魔幻浪漫主义的游走叙事,《堂吉诃德》是写实主义亦庄亦谐的游走叙事;明晰两个文本的救赎与救世的目标追求,以及由此产生的＂悲剧中的喜剧性,喜剧中的悲剧性＂的独特审美感受。
