The analysis of age-specific fertility patterns via logistic models

In this paper, we introduce logistic models to analyse fertility curves. The models are formulated as linear models of the log odds of fertility and are defined in terms of parameters that are interpreted as measures of level, location and shape of the fertility schedule. This parameterization is useful for the evaluation, and interpretation of fertility trends and projections of future period fertility. For a series of years, the proposed models admit a state-space formulation that allows a coherent joint estimation of parameters and forecasting. The main features of the models compared with other alternatives are the functional simplicity, the flexibility, and the interpretability of the parameters. These and other features are analysed in this paper using examples and theoretical results. Data from different countries are analysed, and to validate the logistic approach, we compare the goodness of fit of the new model against well-known alternatives; the analysis gives superior results in most developed countries.

A quantum leap for social theory

I discuss the revolutionary implications of Alexander Wendt's Quantum Mind and Social Science for social theory. These center on the significance given to society as a possibility space in which observable social reality amounts to quantum decoherent states in the system. I discuss how Wendt radicalises social constructivism and goes considerably beyond Bourdieu's conceptions of society as a field. A signature feature in Wendt's theory, the state as a hologram, comports well with the implied view of the social order in much public opinion and market research. In this respect, Wendt's theory is very attuned to the spirit of our times.     

关于非物理专业大学物理课程的思考

本文从大学物理课程的地位、作用和任务,大学物理的教学内容,大学物理对能力、素质培养的基本要求,大学物理课程的教学过程等方面入手,对面向21世纪非物理专业大学物理课程建设进行了深入探讨。文章指出,大学物理课程是高等学校理科、工科各专业学生一门重要的必修基础课,大学物理课程在培养学生科学素质方面是其他课程不能替代的。强调了加强近代物理教学内容的重要性和必要性。     

CAI在大学物理教学改革中的应用研究

大学物理对学生创新能力、探索精神、基础理论和实践能力的培养起着重要作用,而计算机辅助教学代表一种新的教育技术和教学形式,是教学改革的一种流行趋势.文章主要从大学物理多媒体教材、大学物理多媒体试卷评价系统、现代物理科技前沿及发展史窗口和大学物理仿真实验室等四个方面讨论了如何把计算机多媒体技术应用于物理教学改革之中,如何改变传统的教学和管理模式,提高教学效果等问题.     

量子逻辑与量子计算逻辑——语境视角下的“量子逻辑”辨析

量子计算和量子逻辑分别是量子理论发展的两个方向,但是量子计算语境下的“量子计算逻辑”与量子逻辑语境下的“量子逻辑”这两个概念却极易让人混淆.文章首先探讨了量子逻辑与量子计算这两个量子理论发展的不同进路,进而对量子逻辑和量子计算逻辑这两个不同的概念进行了区分,最后指出了“量子逻辑”哲学研究未来应关注的方向.     

Quantum mechanics and the postmodern in one country

Abstract

The orthodox interpretation of Quantum Mechanics was banned in the Soviet Union in 1947, an episode usually glossed as another illustration of repressive Soviet science. This paper argues that the roots of this ban should be located at a much deeper level, in a tension existing between the ‘postmodern’ form of orthodox Quantum Mechanics and an ideology of modernization. In the West a similar ideological tension had a different result: when the occasion demanded, the orthodox interpretation was covertly exchanged for an agnosticism about metaphysical matters, and potential areas of conflict with the principles of modernization were thus defused. The latter strategy benefited the orthodox interpretation, which enjoyed a virtual monopoly in the West from the 1940s through to the 1960s. Using the Freudian notions of ‘transference’ and ‘disavowal’, I explain why the ideological tension with modernization was resolved differently in the West and in the Soviet Union.     

浅谈中专物理教学的策略
