The number of records within a random interval of the current record value

LetX ₁,X ₂, … be a sequence of i.i.d. random variables with some continuous distribution functionF. LetX(n) be then-th record value associated with this sequence and μ _n ⁻ , μ _n ⁺ be the variables that count the number of record values belonging to the random intervals(f−(X(n)), X(n)), (X(n), f+(X(n))), wheref−, f+ are two continuous functions satisfyingf−(x)<x, f+(x)>x. Properties of μ _n ⁻ , μ _n ⁺ are studied in the present paper. Some statistical applications connected with these variables are also provided.     

Risk,Media, and Stigma at Rocky Flats

Public responses to nuclear technologies are often strongly negative. Events, such as accidents or evidence of unsafe conditions at nuclear facilities, receive extensive and dramatic coverage by the news media. These news stories affect public perceptions of nuclear risks and the geographic areas near nuclear facilities. One result of these perceptions, avoidance behavior, is a form of "technological stigma" that leads to losses in property values near nuclear facilities. The social amplification of risk is a conceptual framework that attempts to explain how stigma is created through media transmission of information about hazardous places and public perceptions and decisions. This paper examines stigma associated with the U.S. Department of Energy's Rocky Flats facility, a major production plant in the nation's nuclear weapons complex, located near Denver, Colorado. This study, based upon newspaper analyses and a survey of Denver area residents, finds that the social amplification theory provides a reasonable framework for understanding the events and public responses that took place in regard to Rocky Flats during a 6-year period, beginning with an FBI raid of the facility in 1989.     

新乡贤助推乡村振兴战略实现的路径研究

乡村振兴重在“人才振兴”,只有解决好了人的问题,乡村才能真正振兴,因而推动各类人才尤其是吸引新乡贤参与家乡各项事业发展,成为实现乡村振兴战略的客观要求。新乡贤作为实现乡村振兴战略的重要力量,在全面推进乡村振兴过程中对产业振兴、人才振兴、文化振兴、生态振兴和组织振兴等都发挥着积极作用,但在实践中暴露出一些突出问题,诸如对新乡贤认识定位不清晰、缺乏情感沟通、实践渠道受阻以及权益保障不到位等。为此,需要通过多种舆论宣传确保新乡贤“时刻挂念家乡”、加强日常情感联系推动新乡贤“经常回来走走”和注重多措并举鼓励支持新乡贤“共谋家乡发展”等实施路径,来不断提升新乡贤在乡村振兴中的工作实效性。     

信息碎片化时代新媒体在高校主流价值维护中的运用——以民族高校官方微信为例

信息碎片化的时代,新媒体成为形塑学生世界观的重要工具。民族高校经以学校官方微信为龙头的新媒体宣传矩阵,从新媒体工作意识、运行机制、品牌竞争角度形成了成熟的工作机制,通过面向主体诉求的选题、高效的传播形式设计、交互传播方式选择,获得了新的话语优势。民族高校将新媒体建设导向思政工作,使新媒体的传播力变成一种教育力。新媒体通过提供一个合适的议题,让学生在参与议题的过程中去认识问题,由议程设置引导主流价值观形成。民族高校的新媒体依靠塑造共同体意识,对群体成员的价值观和行为形成约束力,使得主流价值得以巩固,学生的媒介素养得以提升,学生在面向复杂环境时,具备了更强的鉴别能力,在维护主流价值观时更加坚定。     

东亚模式的理论分歧与现实发展

Chapter 5 Lonesome in the Saddle

Abstract

Older people create a sense of self through the decisions they make about their sense of place in the world. Through a series of ethnographic life-stories, drawn from the lives of retired people in an upstate New York community, consideration is given to the meanings that mature men and women attach: to leaving work; to choosing to stay in or leave the home or residence that they have been living in; and to weighing the options of remaining in or moving from their community. The meaningfulness of family, home, possessions, travel, community, and ties to the land, all emerge from these accounts. In negotiating these issues, people also have to deal with a number of conflicting American values, including the tensions between freedom and responsibility, autonomy and rootedness, and adventure and security. The classic American images of the “settler” and the “cowboy” help to convey some of these contradictions.     

论党员干部正确价值观的构建

党的十八大提出建党百年时建成小康社会,极其鼓舞人心。但怎么建成需要各方努力,其中党员干部树立正确价值观很重要。正如胡锦涛总书记所言党员、干部中不同程度地存在着政治信仰迷茫、理想信念模糊、价值取向扭曲等问题。党员、干部价值取向扭曲任其发展会给国家造成错失建成小康社会战略机遇期。形势“倒逼”我们必须消除党员、干部价值取向扭曲,践行社会主义核心价值体系。从当前党内存在的价值取向扭曲现实出发,可以找出产生价值取向扭曲的四维原因,从而摸索在建设学习型党组织过程中消除党员、干部不同程度价值取向扭曲的途径方法,实现带领人民建成小康社会期许。     

Appalachian Women: A Study of Resiliency Assets and Cultural Values

ABSTRACT

There is scant literature addressing Appalachian women, their resiliency, and their cultural values. The purpose of this phenomenological study was to explore what constitutes resiliency for Appalachian women. The following research questions were explored: (a) Are Appalachian values reflected in Appalachian women's perceived resiliency during their school-age years, ages 5–18; and (b) if so, which Appalachian values emerged in these women's external and internal developmental assets? Ten Appalachian women were interviewed and asked to reflect on developmental assets during their school-age years. The study results indicated a relationship between developmental resiliency assets during youth as they corresponded with nine Appalachian values. The results indicate that Appalachian women's cultural values foster their strengths and resilience. This study supports the significance of practitioners acknowledging the importance of cultural values in counseling strategy. Implications and suggestions for future research are suggested
