安徽省农业绿色全要素生产率测度及影响因素研究

基于SBM模型和ML指数测度安徽省16个地级市2002-2017年农业绿色全要素生产率,并对其影响因素进行了实证分析。结果表明：安徽省农业绿色全要素生产率增长缓慢,绿色技术效率缺乏改善,绿色技术进步是农业绿色全要素生产率的主要推动力;农业绿色全要素生产率存在区域差异,呈现中间高、两头低的特征。农业产业结构和经济发展水平水平对农业绿色全要素生产率有显著正向作用,机械化水平则阻碍了农业绿色技术进步指数的增长。据此,为进一步推进安徽省农业现代化,应优化农业产业结构、提高农业技术创新以提高农业绿色全要素生产率。     

OECD国家CPI编制的国际比较及借鉴

CPI是官方统计和宏观经济分析中的重要指标,但各国CPI的基础概念和具体编制方法存在着差别。本文从测度目标与理论框架、范围、消费品和服务分类、支出权数来源与更新频率、价格数据调查方法、质量变化调整方法、指数计算方法、自有住房和季节性产品的处理方法、季节调整等多个方面对OECD国家CPI的编制方法进行了系统比较,并总结了可供中国借鉴的经验。     

中国上市公司治理评价与指数研究--基于中国1149家上市公司的研究(2004年)

本文以中国上市公司公开信息为依据,基于2004年的样本,从中国公司治理指数及其所涉及的六个维度控股股东治理指数、董事会治理指数、监事会治理指数、经理层治理指数、信息披露指数、利益相关者治理指数进行比较研究,总结了中国上市公司的治理特征和年度差异.2004年公司治理状况较之2003年有较大改善,公司治理对公司绩效产生了积极作用,良好的公司治理有利于提高信息披露质量,并有利于保护利益相关者权益.本文对公司治理评价与指数未来研究提出了规划.     

邮轮旅游网络关注度的空间分异及影响因素——基于邮轮旅游百度指数的分析

基于百度指数的邮轮旅游网络关注度,聚焦潜在邮轮旅游者的消费需求,借助变异系数、全局空间自相关、冷热点揭示中国的31个省(自治区、直辖市)邮轮旅游网络关注度的空间分异特征,并在此基础上运用地理探测器对其影响因子进行探测。研究发现:邮轮旅游网络关注度的时间演变趋于平稳、省际差异和冷热点分布差异均显著,且邮轮旅游网络关注度空间分异的影响因子差异显著。据此,提出牢抓邮轮发展机遇以推进邮轮旅游优质发展,加快基础设施建设以优化邮轮旅游发展基础,加大邮轮旅游宣传以强化营销的实践针对性等对策,以创新邮轮旅游经营管理,推进邮轮旅游发展。     

基于二重趋势预测模型的安徽城市居民消费价格总指数预测分析

主要针对安徽城市居民消费价格指数的变化进行研究,重点分析了消费价格总指数的增加趋势和周期循环态势,预测未来几年安徽城市居民消费价格指数将在增加趋势和周期循环趋势的共同作用下出现的态势,分析其具体的原因并提出双向控制、承接大势、农村先行和稳定房价等建议。     

我国城乡居民收入差距的省际差异及其影响因素——基于面板数据的空间计量分析

首先利用泰尔指数测度了我国省域城乡居民收入差距,对我国城乡居民收入差距的省际差异进行了空间探索性分析,结论为:东北及东部沿海地区收入差距最小,中部地区次之,西部地区收入差距最大。随后根据2000~2012年全国31个省、直辖市、自治区的面板数据,利用空间面板滞后模型从经济发展水平与经济结构、经济开放程度、财政支出与金融发展以及教育等方面分析了省际差异产生的原因。最后,对缩小城乡居民收入差距提出了相应的政策建议。     

Applying Least Absolute Deviation Regression to Regression-type Estimation of the Index of a Stable Distribution Using the Characteristic Function

Least absolute deviation regression is applied using a fixed number of points for all values of the index to estimate the index and scale parameter of the stable distribution using regression methods based on the empirical characteristic function. The recognized fixed number of points estimation procedure uses ten points in the interval zero to one, and least squares estimation. It is shown that using the more robust least absolute regression based on iteratively re-weighted least squares outperforms the least squares procedure with respect to bias and also mean square error in smaller samples.     

A validity assessment of the Progress out of Poverty Index (PPI)™

Development organisations need easy-to-use and quick-to-implement indicators to quantify poverty when requested to measure program impact. In this paper we assess the validity of the Progress out of Poverty Index (PPI)™, a country-specific indicator based on ten closed questions on directly observable household characteristics, by its compliance to the SMART criteria. Each response receives a pre-determined score, such that the sum of these scores can be converted into the likelihood the household is living below the poverty line. We focus on the PPI scorecard for Rwanda, which was validated using two national household surveys conducted in 2005/06 and 2010/11. The PPI is Specific, Measurable, Available cost effectively, and Timely available. Yet, its Relevance depends on the way it is used. Although it accurately distinguishes poor from non-poor households, making it a useful reporting tool, its limited sensitivity to changes in poverty status restricts its usefulness for evaluating the impact of development projects.     

Preoperative sexual status of Japanese localized prostate cancer patients: comparison of sexual activity and EPIC scores

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between sexual activity and sexual function using questionnaires distributed to middle-aged Japanese patients with localized prostate cancer.

Methods: A total of 145 patients who underwent radical prostatectomy were enrolled in the survey reported on herein. Sexual activity and sexual function were investigated via the Expanded Prostate Cancer Index Composite (EPIC) and an original self-reported questionnaire.

Results: Of participants, 24.1% and 20.7% had sexual activity within a month period as investigated via the EPIC and original questionnaire, respectively. However, 29.7% of all those who reported sexual activity rate reported “about once every 2?months to a year,” as shown in the original questionnaire. Regarding sexual function as addressed through EPIC, no results within that questionnaire’s measure of sexual function showed significant differences among patients with a rate of actual sexual activity.

Conclusions: The present survey showed that more than quarter of preoperative middle-aged Japanese prostate cancer patients surveyed had actual sexual activity, though not within the preceding 4?weeks. To precisely evaluate sexual function of middle-aged Japanese patients, it is necessary to consider actual sexual activity.
