Do the social and cultural specialists differ from the technocrats and other social classes with respect to their socio-political, cultural and economic preferences and behaviour? If they do, is this attributable to their level and field of education? The social and cultural specialists are assumed to form ?new’ social class and the technocrats ?old’ social class. A typical social class should differentiate itself with respect to moral attitudes, socio-political behaviour and lifestyle forms. To reveal whether these assumed classes are indeed typical classes, we have studied a variety of socio-political, cultural and economic preferences and behaviour of members of these social classes using the Family Survey of the Dutch Population (FSDP) 1992, 1998, 2000 and 2003. To unravel the net differences between the social and cultural specialists and the technocrats, we controlled for the field of study, the level of education and background factors. Taking these control factors into consideration, the social and cultural specialists differentiate themselves substantially from the technocrats in their socio-political and especially economic preferences and behaviour. With respect to their cultural preferences and behaviour, they do not differ significantly from the technocrats. 相似文献

The validation studies of the Multidimensional Students’ Life Satisfaction Scale (MSLSS) have been conducted with samples
from different nations but mostly from western individualistic cultures. Life satisfaction and its constructs could differ
depending on cultural characteristics and life satisfaction scales should be validated in different cultures before using
as measurement tools. This paper exhibits the validation study of the MSLSS in the collectivistic Turkish context and the
study was conducted among 959 high school and primary school students. The MSLSS was found to be reliable and valid for the
Turkish context with a few exceptions. 相似文献

In this paper, we study many-to-one matching (hospital–intern markets) with an aftermarket. We first show that every stable
matching system is manipulable via aftermarket. We then analyze the Nash equilibria of capacity allocation games, in which
preferences of hospitals and interns are common knowledge and every hospital determines a quota for the regular market given
its total capacity for the two matching periods. Under the intern-optimal stable matching system, we show that a pure-strategy
Nash equilibrium may not exist. Common preferences for hospitals ensure the existence of equilibrium in weakly dominant strategies
whereas unlike in games of capacity manipulation strong monotonicity of population is not a sufficient restriction on preferences
to avoid the non-existence problem. Besides, in games of capacity allocation, it is not true either that every hospital weakly
prefers a mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium to any larger regular market quota profiles. 相似文献

Evaluation of physical functioning is a key issue in clinical geriatrics and in aging research. In recent years, different
physical performance batteries in which individuals are asked to perform several tasks and are evaluated using different criteria
have been designed and used in elderly populations. These batteries include different types of test which range from basic
motor abilities to relevant everyday activities, depending on the construct area in the domain of physical function that must
be measured. This paper reviews and classifies the main physical functioning batteries that can be found in the scientific
field of aging research in order to provide knowledge on selection, administration, and interpretation of this indispensable
assessment tools. 相似文献

Management of contaminated sites is a critical environmental issue around the world due to the human health risk involved for many sites and scarcity of funding. Moreover, clean‐up costs of all contaminated sites to their background levels with existing engineering technologies may be financially infeasible and demand extended periods of operation time. Given these constraints, to achieve optimal utilization of available funds and prioritization of contaminated sites that need immediate attention, health‐risk‐based soil quality guidelines should be preferred over the traditional soil quality standards. For these reasons, traditional soil quality standards are being replaced by health‐risk‐based ones in many countries and in Turkey as well. The need for health‐risk‐based guidelines is clear, but developing these guidelines and implementation of them in contaminated site management is not a straightforward process. The goal of this study is to highlight the problems that are encountered at various stages of the development process of risk‐based soil quality guidelines for Turkey and how they are dealt with. Utilization of different definitions and methodologies at different countries, existence of inconsistent risk assessment tools, difficulties in accessing relevant documents and reports, and lack of specific data required for Turkey are among these problems. We believe that Turkey's experience may help other countries that are planning to develop health‐risk‐based guidelines achieve their goals in a more efficient manner. 相似文献

This paper examines, from the perspective of parents and child welfare workers, how cultural values and expectations are integrated and negotiated in public child welfare cases. The study focuses on the experiences and interactions of Mexican families with the public child welfare system in Southern California. Grounded theory is used to complete the content analysis. Findings indicate that workers' efforts to provide culturally congruent services are limited by organizational structural factors. Consistent with the value of personalismo, parents stress the importance of a good relationship with their worker and the implications to their case. Specific recommendations to enhance service delivery include (1) developing services models that are informed by families served; (2) developing/providing ongoing training and evaluation to ascertain if services are in fact culturally competent; and (3) promoting a change in child welfare policy that reflects the diverse needs of families. 相似文献

Effectiveness of water-based exercise in people living with Parkinson’s disease: a systematic review
This systematic review summarizes the relatively scant literature concerning the effectiveness of water-based exercise (WBE) interventions in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Databases MEDLINE, EMBASE, PEDro, Scopus, and SportDiscus were searched from the earliest available date to December 2011. Studies had to meet the following selection criteria: (1) the target population was patients with PD; (2) the effects of a WBE intervention (as the primary intervention) were tested; (3) the abstract of the research was available in English. Selected studies were subject to unmasked quality assessment by applying a methodological scoring with a possible maximum score of 15 points. Twelve studies met the inclusion criteria, although only three of them achieved a methodological quality score above 10 points. Collectively, the data showed that WBE has some beneficial short-term effects on the impact that PD has on the patients (mainly on their motor symptoms and on their functional mobility), as well as on their quality of life. This review provides evidence that WBE is safe for patients with PD, but there is a lack of hard evidence regarding its beneficial effects. Further randomized and controlled trials with larger sample sizes are required. 相似文献
