Subjective utility with upper and lower probabilities on finite states

This article is concerned with thresholds of discrimination of preference judgments under uncertainty. We establish an axiomatic characterization for a threshold representation, where thresholds are represented by inexact measurement of subjective probabilities, i.e., upper and lower probabilities. Since upper and lower probabilities need not be additive, the representational form adopts the Choquet integration.     

明清时期长江中下游地区的土地利用

我国明清时期长江中下游地区的土地利用状况是自汉、唐以来人地关系日益尖锐的结果。文章在分析了当时土地利用方式的基础上 ,进一步对形成土地集约化经营趋势日趋明显的原因进行了论述 ,并从明清时期的土地利用得出启示 :我国土地资源的开发利用必须走可持续发展之路     

当代家族小说的性别审视

在家族小说创作中,当代作家以现代意识与人道同情表现出对女性命运与妇女解放问题关注的热情,但由于受到男权社会文化传统与性别立场的影响,他们对女性不幸命运的同情之中又存在着性别上的隔膜,无论是对女性躯体的描写,男女两性关系模式的建构,叙述者与人物的性别话语,还是在性际关系价值评判中的厚此薄彼,都从不同的侧面流露出作家男权意识的传统积淀,都是男性对女性一厢情愿的想象性书写。     

心灵的失落与追寻——简论汉末男性诗人的女性同构心理

汉末男性诗人以女性为情感载体来抒写自我生命痛苦的写作用意,应与他们的处境和心态密切相关。在混乱的政局中经历了期盼、失望、绝望的心路历程之后,他们的心态发生了很大变化,具有与女性心理同构的新特点。这恰恰彰显了汉末男性诗人摆脱心灵困境时的自我突围意识。

稻作起源的考古学探索

根据农业起源理论与考古学实例分析,长江下游的水稻栽培发生在野生资源非常丰富的自然环境里,其驯化机制并非饥馑和用于果腹,很可能是为了增加美食的酿酒。稻作农业在良渚阶段成为主要经济形态与复杂社会强化剩余产品生产密切相关,良渚酋邦解体后的马桥文化又退回到了狩猎采集经济。农业经济最终成为不可逆转的发展趋势,是野生资源持续减少、人口增长和社会复杂化等因素共同作用的结果。文章呼吁,中国的农业起源研究要摆脱一味寻找最早栽培谷粒来确定农业起源时间和地点的模式,从人地关系的互动来了解农业起源的潜因和具体进程。     

计算中国男性人体环节体积的二元回归方程的研究

采用CT—图像分析法,在尸体研究的基础上,对50例中国男性样本(18～23岁)进行了全身CT横断层扫描、影像分析和测算,获得了样本各环节的长度和体积等惯性数据。进而确定了中国男性青年人体体积的分布,并据此建立了以身高、体重为自变量的直接计算中国青年人体各环节体积的二元回归方程。     

African American Children's Adjustment: The Roles of Maternal and Teacher Depressive Symptoms

This study examined the unique and interactive roles of mother and teacher depressive symptoms in child adjustment in 277 African American single mother‐headed families, as well as whether the associations differed depending on the age and gender of the child. Findings revealed a significant association between maternal depressive symptoms and child depressive symptoms in girls, but not boys. Moreover, the combination of higher levels of both mother and teacher depressive symptoms was associated with the highest level of child depressive symptoms and, for younger children, externalizing symptoms. The importance of considering the multiple social contexts in which children interact is discussed.     

The influence of risk and protective factors on burnout experienced by those who work with maltreated children

The aim of the study was to explore the degree (and type) of burnout and trauma symptoms, personal histories and coping strategies retrospectively reported by those who work with maltreated children and their families. A self‐selected sample of workers (N = 44) completed a self‐report questionnaire assessing childhood maltreatment, family background characteristics, current adjustment, coping strategies and burnout. Workers reported high levels of emotional exhaustion and depersonalization, and a low to moderate sense of personal accomplishment. Family background characteristics predicted the occurrence of maltreatment and current adjustment, and a personal history of maltreatment predicted current trauma symptoms, but not burnout. Workers most frequently used problem‐focused coping strategies and sought social support; however, coping strategies were not associated with the level of either trauma symptoms or burnout. Despite employing positive coping strategies, their efficacy may be affected by other interpersonal, intra‐individual and job resource issues. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

池莉“人生三部曲”的男性形象和女性意识

池莉的"人生三部曲"虽以男性为主要描写对象,但透过这些男性形象与对应的女性形象的关系可以看出,池莉自始至终都以女性意识来关照其作品中的人物:呼唤男子汉的女性意识增强了男性的角色意识;要求丈夫尊重、重视、认同的意识使男主人公更加清醒地认识现实、承担责任;女性主体意识的张扬使男人从男性中心幻觉中跌落,自觉地修炼自身、确立自己.
