Parental migration and disruptions in everyday life: reactions of left-behind children in Southeast Asia

ABSTRACT

Increasing feminisation of transnational labour migration has raised concerns over potential ‘care crises’ at home, and consequently a ‘care deficit’ for children left in origin countries. Our paper focuses on how left-behind children from Indonesia and the Philippines understand, engage and react to changes in their everyday lives in their parents’ absence. While many children had no say over their care arrangements, some were able to assert their agency in influencing their parents’ decisions and eventually migratory behaviours. Their thoughts and actions reinforce the importance of including children’s views in development and migration studies to improve both the children’s and families’ well-being, and make migration a sustainable strategy for all.

Can a voluntary web survey be useful beyond explorative research?

In this paper, we compare the estimates of earnings determinants based on the non-probabilistic WageIndicator web survey with those based on the widely used, representative EU Study of Income and Living Conditions survey. Using 10 years of Dutch data, we show that there exists an established segment of predominantly junior workers from which the respondents of the WageIndicator survey are disproportionally drawn. In consequence, the composition of WageIndicator sample tends to retain key characteristics over the years, even though it lacks a probabilistic sampling frame. We show that the estimates produced on the basis of an extended Mincerian earnings model using the two data sources are qualitatively similar. In line with much of the literature, however, the two sets of estimates do not pass the formal statistical test of equality. Nonetheless, when we examine only the subsample of junior workers, the statistical testing does not detect a statistically significant difference between the two datasets in many instances. To our knowledge, ours is the first paper showing such statistical evidence for comparability of a web survey based with a widely used representative data source.     

Computer‐Assisted Career Guidance Systems: A Part of NCDA History

The first computer‐assisted career planning systems were developed in the late 1960s and were based soundly on the best of career development and decision‐making theory. Over the years, this tradition has continued as the technology that delivers these systems’ content has improved dramatically and as they have been universally accepted as effective tools for career guidance practice. Although their widespread use in the United States is currently affected by financial conditions, the potential for using these systems in developing countries as a part of their implementation of career guidance services is promising.     

网络时代的戏仿文化——以《一个馒头引发的血案》为例

戏仿作为手法和现象在西方源远流长,20世纪六七十年代它伴随着西方后现代理论蓬勃发展,而后80年代初被引进到中国,在90年代已经渗透到我们的社会生活和文化生活的方方面面,尤其值得注意的是2006年年初,网民胡戈制作的《一个馒头引发的血案》(以下简称《馒头》)这部网络短片,因戏仿当时被炒作的大片《无极》而迅速走红内地,甚至超过了《无极》本身引起的轰动。仔细考察这部在网上迅速流传的戏仿短片,就会发现源远流长的戏仿文化在网络时代已经悄悄发生了变化。     

网络信息检索现状及未来

随着计算机技术和网络技术的发展,网络信息检索显得越发重要。在对现行的几种网络信息检索模式简要介绍的基础上提出了相关的问题,从而对网络信息检索的未来作出展望。     

一种Multi-agent System的信任模型

Multi-agent技术已广泛用于大型分布式管理系统的开发.多agent间合作的信任问题会严重影响系统的效率.现有的信任模型基本上都是基于WEB的peer-to-peer环境给出的,它们不太适于multi-agent system(MAS)环境.针对MAS环境中信任的特点,提出了一种基于信誉和关系网的agent信任体系.分析实验表明该模型能促进agent关系网的凝聚性,能较大的提高agent合作伙伴选取的效率,并在重复交往环境下agent的合作成功率,以及在抑制恶意推荐、协同作弊、偏心这些干扰现象上较已有模型有较大改进.该模型在供应链管理和电子商务合作伙伴选择方面,具有一定的理论意义和实用价值.     

混凝土箱梁顶板横向预应力框架效应分析

针对目前预应力混凝土箱梁腹板开裂现象比较普遍这一现象,拟从预应力混凝土箱梁顶板横向预应力框架效应查找开裂原因。首先,分析了箱梁截面参数对顶板预应力横向框架效应的影响,然后结合具体预应力混凝土连续箱梁桥,分析了预应力混凝土箱梁顶板横向框架效应所引起的腹板竖向拉应力,得到了一些有意义的结论,可为改进该类桥梁的设计提供参考。

黑客亚文化群体简论

黑客亚文化群体有共同特征:年龄上多为年轻人、人种上多为白种人、性别上多为男性、成长过程都有不平常的环境影响、价值观上崇尚信息无价和共享、人格上聪明并富于挑战性。黑客群体的庞杂性和行为的多样性决定了判断其"功过是非"的复杂性。这一群体的形成与其"亚文化"特征——自由精神、反权威意识、英雄主义、信息崇拜——密切相关。为确保网络系统安全和维护网络空间秩序,要提高安全防范意识,预防黑客攻击;采取必要的技术措施,对付黑客攻击;采用法律手段,打击黑客行为;以毒攻毒,用黑客制服黑客。
