The article challenges us, as adults, to think more deeply about the nature of a child's experience of parental conflict and separation.

詹姆士·韦尔奇的小说《印第安律师》中主人公西尔维斯特在一个种族歧视严重、阶级差距明显、男尊女卑观念深入人心 的社会中不断追寻自己印第安身份。种族、阶级、性别三组空间二元对立在小说中最为显著。掌握政治权力的白人统治着社 会空间,男性控制着女性空间位置和活动,而拥有社会大多数财产的上层阶级也在空间意义上控制着下层人民。而造成这种 二元对立的以及社会诸多症结的原因正是资本主义社会制度。     

Some comparative studies on testing parallelism of several straight lines under heteroscedastic variances

This paper examines the robustness of the Welch test, the James test as well as Tan's ANOVA test (to be referred as F_β test) for testing parallelism in k straight lines under heteroscedasticity and nonnormality. Results of Monte Carlo studies demonstrate the robustness of all tests with respect to departure from normality. Further, there is hardly any difference between these methods with respect to both power and size of the test.     

Tertium Quid

ABSTRACT

Gertrude Stein repeatedly returned to questions she initially investigated at the Harvard Psychological Laboratory. Leon Solomons' and Stein's mutual respect for William James led them to pursue controversial hypotheses within the fin-de-siècle cacophony of discourses on the subconscious. Their experiments yielded results that Frederick Myers saw as a major corroboration of his own theory of subliminal consciousness. With the associated themes of double personality, suggestion, and conversion, the problematic of subliminal consciousness fictionalized in Q.E.D. and “Melanctha” is directly related to Stein's psychological research.     

译者主观能动性——论《论语》译本文化因素的处理

《论语》对中国文化影响巨大。《论语》译本中比较有影响的是苏格兰汉学家理雅各在1893年翻译出版的《中国经典》中第一卷的《论语》,另一个争议大但有影响力的是中国清末民初辜鸿铭的《论语》的英译本。应用德国的功能翻译理论,研究两者在文化词语上不同的策略选择,以揭示中国古代文献的翻译规律。     

Testing the equality of several means when the population variances are unequal

A comparative study is made of three tests, developed by James (1951), Welch (1951) and Brown & Forsythe (1974). James presented two methods of which only one is considered in this paper. It is shown that this method gives better control over the size than the other two tests. None of these methods is uniformly more powerful than the other two. In some cases the tests of James and Welch reject a false null hypothesis more often than the test of Brown & Forsythe, but there are also situations in which it is the other way around.

We conclude that for implementation in a statistical software package the very complicated test of James is the most attractive. A practical disadvantage of this method can be overcome by a minor modification.
