Social service purchasing in China: Rationale,features, and risks

As part of a broader program of market reform, China's local governments are progressing an agenda of purchasing child welfare and other social services from the nongovernment sector, primarily to expand capacity and address vast unmet need. This paper draws on current research evidence to explore the approaches to purchasing emerging in China, examining the rationale for purchasing and models of supply, competition, and regulation. While some approaches are modeled on direct service contracting, direct purchasing of social service “posts” is also used, aimed at achieving goals of professionalization alongside service expansion. Overall, the review shows purchasing is helping to rapidly expand service scale and capacity; however, regulatory strategies for managing and mitigating risks to quality and access appear lacking. This highlights the need for further scholarship aimed at developing the robust risk management strategies which are required to support high quality, sustainable provision of purchased services.     

Demand for gambling: development and assessment of a gambling purchase task

Self-report purchase tasks are a novel approach examining the reinforcing value of addictive behaviour relative to increasing monetary costs required to access the addictive behaviour (i.e. demand). These measures reveal a positive relationship between the indices of demand and addiction problem severity and can elucidate factors associated with motivation for substance use. Gambling is an addictive behaviour that has not been examined using this paradigm. This study seeks to adapt and examine the purchase task for gambling behaviour. A gambling purchase task was devised that asked individuals how often per month they would gamble at various cover charges. Participants were 73 adults from the community with either gambling disorder (n = 28) or alcohol use disorder (n = 24) or were a healthy control (n = 21). Both the alcohol and gambling purchase tasks were administered. Results demonstrate discriminant validity of the gambling purchase task, as individuals with gambling disorder have significantly greater demand for accessing gambling than other groups. The alcohol purchase task also evidenced discriminant validity in that individuals with alcohol use disorder have significantly greater demand for alcohol than other groups. These findings support the use of the gambling purchase task to assess the demand for gambling.

Encouraging Creativity in the Social Work Classroom: Insights from a Qualitative Exploration

Creativity is vital to the learning process of social work students. Despite its importance, educators are still uncertain of ways to enhance creativity and translate it from classroom to practice. Therefore, this study examines social work student perspectives on ways to define creativity, infuse it into the classroom, and apply it as practitioners. This study qualitatively explores the open-ended insights of 37 social work students. Through an unguided semantic analysis and application of Kolb’s experiential learning theory, the following themes emerged: classroom, creativity, performance, activities, and ideas. These themes indicate that students believe that additional creative opportunities in their classrooms would eventually benefit them as practitioners. Further pedagogical emphasis on increasing student creativity through experiential learning activities would be beneficial.

北京市政府购买社会组织服务的组团模式解读

政府购买社会组织服务是一项系统工程,既需要严密的程序管理,也需要精细的组织管理。北京市政府采用组团模式购买社会组织服务,即以政府购买项目领域为核心,整合社会组织资源,形成服务合力,共同承接政府购买项目。组团模式体现了北京市政府购买社会组织服务的组织管理创新,是一种社会网络形式。组团是购买服务的组织管理载体,在这个已经实体化的网络平台中,政府、社会组织包括支持性社会组织,以及企业、公民都有各自的角色安排。组团模式使购买服务的组织管理精细化,是北京市政府培育和支持社会组织的有效手段,提高了社会组织的自治能力,具有巨大的社会价值,从中可以探寻到社会治理多元主体结构的建构机制。     

基于ECM的团购网站继续使用行为实证研究

当今网络团购已成为电子商务的新兴力量,大量团购网站涌现。以团购网站为研究对象,基于期望证实模型(ECM)构建了影响团购网站继续使用行为的因素研究模型(该模型包含感知有用、感知经济性、感知愉悦、信任、满意、证实、继续使用意愿等7个因素),并对用户使用团购网站后影响其继续使用行为的因素进行了实证分析和验证。结果显示:用户的预期感受与实际使用后的证实程度对感知经济性、感知有用、满意有显著影响;感知经济性、感知有用、满意等3个因素对用户的继续使用意愿有显著影响,而信任因素对使用意愿的影响不显著。

限购令效力困惑与破解：溯及力与不可抗力的适用

限购令不具有溯及力,限购令会因合同对外缺乏公示性被轻易规避,导致限购令形同虚设,不仅房价继续非理性上涨,而且使限购令保护公共利益的目的落空。反之,限购具有溯及力,购房合同当事人基于当时授益性的法律规定,依法享有的合同信赖利益无法实现。为了兼顾公共利益和个人利益合理保护,限购令对其生效前不具有公示性的合同具有溯及力,但限购令溯及既往并非导致合同无效,而是构成合同履行障碍。购房合同履行障碍的破解途径：合同或协议解除,或部分履行,或以后继续履行。
