Information Sharing in a Manufacturer–Supplier Relationship: Suppliers' Incentive and Production Efficiency

While there have been vast discussions on the materialistic benefits of continuous improvement from the Toyota and Honda experiences, the academic literature pays little attention to information sharing. In this study, we construct a dynamic adverse selection model in which the supplier privately observes her production efficiency, and in the contractual duration the manufacturer obtains an informative but imprecise signal regarding this private efficiency. We show that despite the disclosure of proprietary information, information sharing may benefit the supplier; the supplier's voluntary participation is more likely to occur when the shared information is rather imprecise. On the other hand, our analysis also reveals that this information sharing unambiguously gives rise to an upward push of the production quantity, and may sometimes lead to an upward distortion that ultimately hurts the supply chain. We also document the non‐trivial impact of the timing of information sharing on the supplier's incentive to participate.     

国际化学院的课程体验调查分析

北京航空航天大学中法工程师学院通过中外合作的办学模式以实现国际化人才的培养,其重要途径之一就是通过对课程体系进行的改革,而人才培养的质量很大程度上也取决于所授课程的质量。运用一种在国际上普遍采用的课程质量调查方法———大学生课程体验调查,结合国际化学院的特殊背景修订问卷,对北航中法工程师学院与普通学院的学生进行课程体验的调查。调查发现,北航中法工程师学院学生对课程的满意程度高于普通学院学生,特别在良好教学与资源获取方面明显好于普通学院学生,但在课程收获和学业负担方面仍需改进。     

究竟是“失语”还是“得语”——兼论“失语症”的解决之道

在中国现代文论建设中,“失语”现象时有发生,却不是主体;更为主流的是中西文论在遵循精神契合性、民族性、传统性基础上的“得语”。在20世纪的杜甫研究中,“人民性”“现实主义”“民胞物与”等概念的提出,显示出中国文论强大的生命力,是“得语”的明证。疗治“失语症”应该尊重中国文论建设基本规律的前提下,准确认清古代文论在当代社会的文化定位,以及它在经历百年现代化历史进程之后的社会属性,较少掺杂民族主义情感,代之以学理性的分析,重新评估中国现当代文学的创作实际。

价值观教育:问题与对策

价值观是指主体按照客观事物对其自身及社会的意义或重要性进行评价和选择的原则、信念和标准。以教与学为活动形式,有目的、有意识地促进个体价值观发展的实践活动就是价值观教育。当前价值观教育存在的问题主要是:教育者时常戴着面具训导学习者;知性色彩浓厚、人文性缺失在很大程度上加剧了价值观教育的困窘乏力;学校价值观教育在方法与内容上有错位之弊;家庭与学校在价值观教育上未能拧成一股绳。价值观教育的对策是:转变教育者的角色——由主宰者变为"平等中的首席";倡导走向人本与体验的价值观教育;不断完善价值观教育的方法与内容;加强家校协作。     

浅论诗歌语言的隐喻特质

中国古代美学提倡含蓄朦胧、蕴籍风流,诗歌作为最能体现古典美学精神的文学样式,利用语词的隐喻特质,极大地拓宽了诗歌的审美空间,丰富了诗歌的审美内涵。主要探讨诗歌与语词的隐喻关联,同时简要归列了解析语词隐喻内涵的方法,力求从隐喻阐释理论的高度对诗歌的多义主题及丰富寓意作出更合理的解释和还原。

Work-related factors associated with psychological distress among social workers

The current study assesses the association between several work-related factors and psychological distress among social workers (SWs) in Israel. The data were collected through structured questionnaires, administered to a sample of 494 SWs. The findings suggest that most of the examined work-related factors (namely, years of professional experience, personal work-related subjection to violence, burnout, compassion fatigue, and sense of coherence), with the exception of compassion satisfaction, significantly predicted psychological distress among SWs. The conclusion is that it is important to embed within the social work practice strategies for reducing sources of psychological distress (job demands) and increasing material, professional, and personal resources. Reducing the levels of psychological distress experienced by SWs will benefit not only themselves, but also their families and colleagues, as well as their clients. Moreover, this has potential benefits for the social work profession and for the general community.
