Double trouble: work–family conflict and well-being for second job holders

The purpose of this study was to provide an initial investigation into the work–family conflict (WFC) experiences of individuals who hold a second job. Specifically, we proposed two opposing theoretical arguments regarding the relationship between WFC and four measures of well-being: life satisfaction, physical health, emotional exhaustion, and exercise for individuals who hold two jobs. In a sample of individuals working two jobs, we tested whether the effects of WFC arising from the first job and from the second job exerted an additive or interactive effect on employee well-being. Our results indicated that for emotional exhaustion, physical symptoms, and life satisfaction, the effects of WFC from two jobs are interactive; but that for exercise, the effects of WFC from two jobs are additive. In both cases, the additional WFC experienced as a result of working a second job contributed to the prediction of employee well-being over and above WFC from the first job. Results are discussed within the context of relevant theory, and suggestions are made for future research.     

组织发展理论背景下的角色转化——从组织发展的视角看当代人力资源管理

随着人力资源管理理论和实践的不断发展．组织发展理论摆脱了传统意义上的培训理论和实践，从战略的高度为组织创造变革和强化变革，最终使组织获得竞争优势，推动人力资源管理领域的丰富和完善。人力资源管理音作为组织变革的促成者，在服务和推动组织发展的过程中不断地塑造自己和完成角色转型，即从一名人事专员向组织观察者和组织发展专家的角色转变。人力资源管理者完成角色转型将成为历史的必然。     

A test for the equality of k medians against the simple tree alternative under right censorship

We consider a test for the equality of k population medians, θ_i i=1,2,….,k, when it is believed a priori, that θ _i: The observations are subject to right censorhip. The distributions of the censoring variables for each population are assumed to be equal. This test is compared with the general k-sample test proposed by Breslow     

Geeta distribution and its properties

A new discrete distribution defined over all the positive integers and with the name of Geeta distribution is described. It is L-shaped like the logarithmic series distribution, Yule distribution and the discrete Pareto distribution but is far more versatile than them as it has two parameters. It belongs to the classes of location parameter distributions, modified power series distributions, Lagrange series distributions and exponential distributions. Its mean fi, variance a2 and two recurrence formulae for higher central moments are obtained. Convolution theorem and variations in the model with changes in the parameters have been considered. ML estimators, MVU estimators and estimators based of mean and variance and on mean and first frequency have been derived.     

The Effects of Nursing Home Placement on the Perceived Levels of Caregiver Burden

Providing care for an aging parent can be one of the most fulfilling life experiences for an adult child. It can also be one of the most exhausting physically, emotionally, and financially. A caregiver experiences psychological and emotional changes when their dependent parent or spouse is placed into formal care. This research project uses the Montgomery Borgatta Caregiver Burden Scale, amended with a questionnaire, in a self-administered, anonymous survey to explore perceptions of caregiving burden before and after the nursing home placement periods. This research showed that numerous factors influence caregivers' perceptions of burden and the quality of relationships among family members.     

On the one-sample location hypothesis for mixed bivariate data

We study a hypothesis testing problem involving the location model suggested by Olkin and Tate (1961). Specifically, we derive a likelihood ratio lest of the associated location hypothesis as an alternative to the conventional method of carrying out separate tests for each of the parameters. A small sample Monte Carlo comparison indicates the general superiority of the former in terms of statistical power. We also comment briefly on the properties of the test.     

关于国家级高新技术产业园区开发的市场先导功能定位论证

国家级高新技术产业园区能够为高新技术产业开发提供平台，对于提高区域经济实力和国际竞争力具有重要的战略价值。有鉴于此，在国家积极应对全球性金融危机、力挺国内经济又好又快发展的进程中，必须深度透视国家级高新技术产业园区创建的时代背景，正确评价其发展的综合优势，科学定位其开发的先导功能，使之能够承担起国家使命和区域使命。     

顾客在新产品开发中的角色扮演研究

顾客在新产品开发(NPD)中具有越来越重要的作用,他们不仅仅是产品和服务的被动接受者,而且渐渐成为企业知识的主要来源。顾客在NPD中的作用可以用三个不同角色来描述:资源、使用者和共同创造者,并分析了在NPD过程中这三个角色所能发挥的作用。     

对我国少数民族电视发展的思考

对当代少数民族电视业的发展历史进行梳理,其发展历程可分为三个阶段:培育期、发展期、加速期;少数民族电视具有加强祖国统一和民族和谐、促进民族地区经济腾飞、为少数民族群众提供精神食粮、开展对外宣传等社会功能。但是少数民族电视在精品节目、专业人才和盈利模式等方面仍显严重不足。     

Confidence intervals on p(y < x) for small sample sizes

When F = G^a, confidence intervals are derived and presented in graphs for p = P(Y < X), when X and Y are independent and the sample sizes are at most 25. Also, it is demonstrated via a monte carlo simulation that this is a robust procedure, when the distributions of X and Y differ by a location parameter.
