政府补贴对企业真实创新绩效的影响——基于中国A股上市公司数据的实证分析

在分析政府补贴政策的特征及其影响企业真实创新绩效的理论机制的基础上,运用A股上市公司数据,检验了政府补贴对企业真实创新绩效的直接和传导效应。研究发现：政府补贴对企业真实创新绩效具有激励效应,且国有企业较非国有企业的创新效应更强;研发资本要素市场扭曲能够强化政府补贴激励企业真实创新绩效的调节作用,并与产权性质联合调节政府创新补贴效果;创新投入与融资约束在政府补贴对企业真实创新绩效的影响中起部分中介效应;政府补贴对企业创新持续性具有负向抑制效应,政府补贴效果受到研发资本要素市场扭曲和产权性质明显的负向调节作用,且创新投入与融资约束在政府补贴对企业持续性创新的影响中起部分中介效应。     

影响创新扩散速度的社会和技术因素之研究

通过对美国、中国内地和香港等不同地区不同创新物在各自特定时空中的扩散轨迹的总结和分析,把影响创新扩散的因素归纳为两大类:社会的和技术的。其中,社会因素又区分为创新产生的年代和创新扩散的地区,而技术因素主要指创新属性,分为计算类、电信类、家庭娱乐类和大众媒介类。研究结果发现,社会因素中的创新出现的时间对于创新扩散的形态具有显著影响;扩散所在地区和创新特性对创新扩散的形态没有显著影响。

以科学发展观为统领,建设社会主义和谐社会,是中国共产党人在新世纪新阶段的重大战略任务。建设社会主义和谐社会要坚持以科学发展观为指导,大力发展先进生产力、先进文化,正确处理好人民内部的矛盾。同时,要进一步深化经济体制、政治体制、教育文化体制和社会管理体制等方面的改革,按照科学发展观所贯穿的基本原则和精神,不断开拓建设社会主义和谐社会的新思路和新境界。     

试论李佩甫《城的灯》中的恶魔性因素

恶魔性因素在中西方文学传统中具有普遍意义,栩栩如生的恶魔性人物形象始终具有着无限的艺术生命力。恶魔性因素的内涵是对某种正常秩序的破坏,对正常意义上的社会伦理道德的反叛,其核心要素是反抗,其生命是叛逆,其实质是战斗。原始的生命冲动和颇具创造性的智慧是其性格中共有特点。李佩甫小说《城的灯》中的冯家昌这一人物性格中,就具有较强的恶魔性因素。     

Three Recommendations for Improving the Use of p-Values

ABSTRACT

Researchers commonly use p-values to answer the question: How strongly does the evidence favor the alternative hypothesis relative to the null hypothesis? p-Values themselves do not directly answer this question and are often misinterpreted in ways that lead to overstating the evidence against the null hypothesis. Even in the “post p?<?0.05 era,” however, it is quite possible that p-values will continue to be widely reported and used to assess the strength of evidence (if for no other reason than the widespread availability and use of statistical software that routinely produces p-values and thereby implicitly advocates for their use). If so, the potential for misinterpretation will persist. In this article, we recommend three practices that would help researchers more accurately interpret p-values. Each of the three recommended practices involves interpreting p-values in light of their corresponding “Bayes factor bound,” which is the largest odds in favor of the alternative hypothesis relative to the null hypothesis that is consistent with the observed data. The Bayes factor bound generally indicates that a given p-value provides weaker evidence against the null hypothesis than typically assumed. We therefore believe that our recommendations can guard against some of the most harmful p-value misinterpretations. In research communities that are deeply attached to reliance on “p?<?0.05,” our recommendations will serve as initial steps away from this attachment. We emphasize that our recommendations are intended merely as initial, temporary steps and that many further steps will need to be taken to reach the ultimate destination: a holistic interpretation of statistical evidence that fully conforms to the principles laid out in the ASA statement on statistical significance and p-values.     

Model selection for factor analysis: Some new criteria and performance comparisons

This paper derives Akaike information criterion (AIC), corrected AIC, the Bayesian information criterion (BIC) and Hannan and Quinn’s information criterion for approximate factor models assuming a large number of cross-sectional observations and studies the consistency properties of these information criteria. It also reports extensive simulation results comparing the performance of the extant and new procedures for the selection of the number of factors. The simulation results show the di?culty of determining which criterion performs best. In practice, it is advisable to consider several criteria at the same time, especially Hannan and Quinn’s information criterion, Bai and Ng’s IC_p2 and BIC₃, and Onatski’s and Ahn and Horenstein’s eigenvalue-based criteria. The model-selection criteria considered in this paper are also applied to Stock and Watson’s two macroeconomic data sets. The results differ considerably depending on the model-selection criterion in use, but evidence suggesting five factors for the first data and five to seven factors for the second data is obtainable.     

Values and happiness among Asian adolescents: a cross-national study

Despite policy efforts to increase adolescent happiness, their impact has been unsatisfactory. Their limited impact may be rooted from a discrepancy between values that adolescents pursued and those that the policies were based on. To provide policy implications, our study aims to identify prevailing values for South Korean, Japanese, and Chinese adolescents and to examine the relationship between the values and self-rated happiness (SRH). A cross-sectional study was conducted using survey data collected on approximately 2000 middle and high school students (7th to 12th school grade) from each country in 2008. Firstly, an explanatory factor analysis was conducted to identify salient adolescent values from each country. Subsequently, a multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted for each population group to examine the relationship between the identified values and adolescent SRH after controlling for sociodemographic characteristics. We found that benevolence and altruism were positively associated with adolescent SRH in all three population groups. Patriarchy was associated with SRH positively in Chinese yet inversely in Japanese. Success pursuit was inversely associated with SRH in Korean. Policy efforts based on values of communities or social harmony may benefit adolescents’ SRH in these three countries.     

Identifying Systemically Important Banks: A temporal approach for macroprudential policies

Contrary to the general belief, systemic risk does not only regard the risk posed by balance sheet relationships and interdependencies among institutions. It also features a temporal dimension related to the inappropriate responses of financial market participants to changes in risk over time. This paper proposes a method to simultaneously address the cross-sectional and the time dimension in which systemic risk materializes. The method is based on the TOPHITS algorithm. It provides three scores, namely borrowing, lending and time scores: the first two represent the systemic importance of the borrowing and the lending activity associated with each financial institution,while the third represents an empirical Early Warning Signal of the financial crisis. Our findings reveal that the identification of the time score as an indicator for an incoming market distress could be relevant to design macro prudential policies.     

当前经济形势下财政货币政策调控的重点

现阶段我国宏观经济运行中,一方面存在着通货膨胀压力,另一方面,社会总需求结构失衡严重,消费、投资、出口之间的比例关系极为不协调。经济失衡的复杂性,使财政政策与货币政策的协调配合成为我国宏观调控面临的难题之一。因此,面对新的形势,确定当前宏观调控的重点,提高财政政策和货币政策配合的效果,通过两大政策的配合实现经济稳定增长、优化总需求结构。     

IT投资转化为企业生产率的影响因素研究

关于"IT投资是否能提高企业生产率"这一命题,学界一直众说纷纭,一个很重要的原因在于这些研究建立在IT投资能对企业生产率产生直接影响的假设前提之上,而忽略了IT作用于企业生产率的中间过程。IT投资必须与企业内部生产环境相吻合才能提高企业生产率,IT投资转化为企业生产率的影响因素包括内部因素和外部因素,其中内部因素包括企业管理特征、企业员工特征及企业结构特征;外部因素指的是企业所面临的外部环境。
