论传统"大同"与"小康"的理想社会秩序观

<札记·礼运>的"大同"与"小康",是中国古代社会理想的经典概括.从宇宙星象的时间-空间秩序抽象而来的天道,是论证大同世界与小康社会的思想背景,所以,无论大同还是小康,都是以"道"为终极根据,追求理想的社会秩序伦理秩序、生活秩序.因大道之彰隐不同,从而体现天道的社会形态不同,使得社会互动准则也就不同"公"与"札"是分析大同与小康的关键词.大道流行,"公"作为一种价值理性,是整合社会秩序的基本准则;而大道隐没,来自宇宙天道的终极根据萎缩,于是,"礼"作为一种工具理性,成为规范社会秩序的另类选择.因此,大同与小康殊途同归,都是强调整合社会秩序的理性主义取向.     

New bivariate gamma types with MIMO application

In this paper a bivariate gamma type distribution emanating from the diagonal elements of an inverse Wishart type distribution is developed; which in turn originates from the complex matrix variate elliptical class. From this, a bivariate Weibullised gamma type distribution is also presented, of which the bivariate Nakagami-m type is a special case. The derived results may be applied as decision statistics for a MIMO (multiple input multiple output) system with two transmit antennas. It is proposed that under this elliptical umbrella some performance measures such as the outage probability of MIMO systems can be analyzed in broad generality.     

评辩证唯物主义与实践唯物主义的论争

辩证唯物主义还基本处在近代思维方式上去说明和解释世界,而实践唯物主义则从根本上转向了现代思维方式。能充分发挥出批判的革命的功能。它是自然唯物主义、人本唯物主义之后的新形态。这早在十年前在多数学中就基本获得共识的成果,没有更好地发挥出它应有的社会效用。     

中国传统政治文化与社会稳定

社会稳定是具有深刻蕴义的文化问题。中国特点的社会稳定取决于人民 ,由人类的自身和谐 ,达到人与自然的和谐。亦即通过修身实现人际和谐 ,通过治国实现群体和谐 ,通过平天下实现天人和谐。中国传统政治文化的现代价值取向 ,是其中心价值系统的现代转化 ,即对优秀传统实行弘扬超越 ,实现文化价值观的升华 ,成为中国特点社会稳定的文化底蕴     

Anmerkungen zur Professionalisierung des Coaching auf dem Hintergrund des klassischen Professionsbegriffs

Some comments on the professionalization of coaching with regard to the classical concept ?profession“ In the current discussions on the professionalization of coaching the concept ?profession“ often is not clear. Therefore, the author first delineates the classical concept of profession and its main criterions. He then discusses the question whether these criterions are present in coaching and whether coaching may or should be conceived as an independent profession. Considering the tendencies of deprofessionalization in the traditional professions, it seems to be meaningful to understand coaching as a profession, but with a revised theoretical concept of profession: Particularly concerning the necessary scientific orientation it demands an interdisciplinarity instead of a fixed corpus of knowledge. The professionality of the practitioner means an orientation on general values and concepts of understanding and acting and is a central aspect of quality of coaching.     

Transition Modeling and Econometric Convergence Tests

A new panel data model is proposed to represent the behavior of economies in transition, allowing for a wide range of possible time paths and individual heterogeneity. The model has both common and individual specific components, and is formulated as a nonlinear time varying factor model. When applied to a micro panel, the decomposition provides flexibility in idiosyncratic behavior over time and across section, while retaining some commonality across the panel by means of an unknown common growth component. This commonality means that when the heterogeneous time varying idiosyncratic components converge over time to a constant, a form of panel convergence holds, analogous to the concept of conditional sigma convergence. The paper provides a framework of asymptotic representations for the factor components that enables the development of econometric procedures of estimation and testing. In particular, a simple regression based convergence test is developed, whose asymptotic properties are analyzed under both null and local alternatives, and a new method of clustering panels into club convergence groups is constructed. These econometric methods are applied to analyze convergence in cost of living indices among 19 U.S. metropolitan cities.     

Wilcoxon's signed‐rank statistic: what null hypothesis and why it matters

In statistical literature, the term ‘signed‐rank test’ (or ‘Wilcoxon signed‐rank test’) has been used to refer to two distinct tests: a test for symmetry of distribution and a test for the median of a symmetric distribution, sharing a common test statistic. To avoid potential ambiguity, we propose to refer to those two tests by different names, as ‘test for symmetry based on signed‐rank statistic’ and ‘test for median based on signed‐rank statistic’, respectively. The utility of such terminological differentiation should become evident through our discussion of how those tests connect and contrast with sign test and one‐sample t‐test. Published 2014.

家庭观的文化差异模式

由于历史的形成原因不同而产生的不同的家庭和家庭称谓语、东西方家庭成员之间的关系、各自独特的文化模式对于社会结构和语言的影响,已经渗透到了人们的思维当中,思维反过来又制约并形成了家庭文化的差异。
