Colonized Silence: Confronting the Colonial Link in Rural Alaska Native Survivors’ Non-Disclosure of Child Sexual Abuse

Though there is evidence linking the history of colonialism and oppression of Indigenous people to the high rates of rape and child sexual abuse experienced by this population today, it is less understood how colonial processes, past and present, condition the decision to disclose or report victimization. Drawing on a survivorship storytelling study of rural Alaska Native survivors of child sexual abuse, this paper underscores the importance of centering colonialism in understanding the culture of silence surrounding sexual victimization among Indigenous people. Results show that reasons for non-disclosure are quite embedded within larger social, historical and political themes of colonialism, oppression, and marginalization. Implications for policy and praxes are discussed, as well as a broader mandate of social change to remove barriers to disclosure.     

Examining the Effects of a Service-Trained Facility Dog on Stress in Children Undergoing Forensic Interview for Allegations of Child Sexual Abuse

Disclosure of child sexual abuse can be a stressful experience for the child. Gaining a better understanding of how best to serve the child, while preserving the quality of their disclosure, is an ever-evolving process. The data to answer this question come from 51 children aged 4–16 (M = 9.1, SD = 3.5), who were referred to a child advocacy center in Virginia for a forensic interview (FI) following allegations of sexual abuse. A repeated measures design was conducted to examine how the presence of a service-trained facility dog (e.g. animal-assisted intervention (AAI) may serve as a mode of lowering stress levels in children during their FIs. Children were randomized to one of the two FI conditions: experimental condition (service-trained facility dog present-AAI) or control condition (service-trained facility dog not present- standard forensic interview). Stress biomarkers salivary cortisol, alpha-amylase, immunoglobulin A (IgA), heart rate, and blood pressure, and Immunoglobulin A were collected before and after the FI. Self-report data were also collected. Results supported a significant decrease in heart rate for those in the experimental condition (p = .0086) vs the control condition (p = .4986). Regression models revealed a significant decrease in systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the experimental condition (p = .03285) and (p = .04381), respectively. Statistically significant changes in alpha-amylase and IgA were also found in relation to disclosure and type of offense. The results of this study support the stress reducing effects of a service-trained facility dog for children undergoing FI for allegations of child sexual abuse.     

网络服务提供者( ISP)信息披露制度——以著作权法领域为中心

在信息技术的发展背景下,网络侵权数量呈现直线飙升.关于网络服务提供者间接侵权责任的建立使权利人确认直接侵权人陷入困境.著作权领域的司法和实践为信息披露制度的建立奠定了良好的基础.立足我国的具体实际和网络现状,信息披露制度应当规定包括网络接入服务提供者在内的网络服务提供者均负有一定的信息披露义务,严格信息披露的条件,采用“通知与反通知”的履行方式,明确网络服务提供者信息披露制度下的责任分配,促使网络服务提供者制定统一的信息披露行业规定.     

董事会特征与盈余管理关系研究

近年一些上市公司会计信息严重失真,盈余管理现象十分严重。董事会作为公司治理机制的重要组成部分,无疑会对公司盈余管理产生很大的影响。文章从实证角度分析了董事会特征与盈余管理之间的关系,发现董事会规模和盈余管理的程度之间存在U型曲线关系;独立董事比例与盈余管理成反比,但t检验不具有显著性;董事会持股和审计委员会与盈余管理的大小都呈反比。根据以上结论进而提出了相应的政策建议。     

新政府会计制度下重构水利部门整体支出绩效评价体系

2014年新修订的《预算法》实施和2018年中央出台的《关于全面实施预算绩效管理的意见》意味着我国政府非常重视预算绩效管理,财政部门还专门出台了项目支出、部门整体支出、财政预算等绩效评价共性指标体系框架。但2019年开始实施“双报告”的新会计制度,使得原来的绩效评价指标体系已经不适应新制度的要求,需要重新设计。文章以某市水利部门为例,在梳理国内外有关绩效评价的研究文献和实地调研的基础上,针对其实施现状和存在的问题,重新构建了部门整体支出绩效评价体系,以提升单位预算管理能力。     

"二元制"财务机构设置的理论与实践分析

管理学关于管理职能的理论是财务机构设置的理论基础,在对该理论阐述的基础详细地分析了会计属于企业的服务子系统,而财务属于企业的支持子系统,作为企业服务子系统的会计和作为支持子系统的财务有其各自的职能领域,所以应该在实践中将其有效地分开,即财务机构必须进行二元制的设置,并通过东西方企业实际情况的对比和所进行的社会调查,提出在市场经济环境下,财务与会计机构分设的二元制结构是当前我国大中型企业必然的选择,并且进一步提出了财务部门和会计部门各自的职责权限。
