IMD国际竞争力评价技术及其应用——以中国区域国际竞争力评价为例

文章对瑞士洛桑国际管理学院(IMD)国际竞争力评价体系作了简要介绍,并解读其综合评价方法。同时针对IMD将国家内部经济体(如中国浙江省)纳入其参评体系后带来的评价技术和理论问题展开了讨论。最后利用IMD评价技术对中国东部10省市国际竞争力加以实证研究。     

Mental Disorders Among Non-Elderly Nursing Home Residents

Many Medicaid beneficiaries aged 22 to 64 with serious mental illness may be admitted to nursing facilities rather than psychiatric facilities as a result of Medicaid policies prohibiting coverage of inpatient psychiatric care in institutions of mental disease while requiring states to cover nursing facility care. Using nationwide Medicaid Analytic Extract claims from 2002, we found that nearly 16% of nursing home residents aged 22 to 64 had a diagnosed mental disorder, while 45.5% received antipsychotic medication, but these rates varied widely across states. Further research is necessary to determine whether, among the nation's youngest nursing home residents, care in nursing homes is potentially substituting for care in institutions for mental disease or community-based settings.     

A comparison of the NZDep and New Zealand IMD indexes of socioeconomic deprivation

ABSTRACT

The aims of this study were to compare the NZ Indices of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) with the NZDep index of socioeconomic deprivation in terms of their: (1) theoretical and methodological approaches; (2) use of small areas; (3) rankings of small areas; and (4) relationships with various health and social outcomes. Literature sources were reviewed for aim 1. The data sources for aims 2–4, all contained within Statistics New Zealand’s Integrated Data Infrastructure, were: (1) 2013 Census, (2) health data sets, (3) Police database, and (4) 2014 General Social Survey. Outcomes were smoking, mortality, respiratory disease, crime, self-assessed health status. Spearman’s rho was used as a measure of correlation. Deciles were treated as categorical in the stepwise logistic regressions. The key finding is that there is a range of theoretical and methodological differences between the indexes. Despite these differences, the indexes behave in a similar, but not identical, manner in their ranking of small areas and in their associations with health and social outcomes. In conclusion, for practical purposes for many applications the two indexes give similar results when analysing very large data sets, although there are some important caveats related to this conclusion for both large and small data sets.     

一种新的用于射频功放的混频预失真技术

本文研究了一种新的混频预失真技术,该技术通过检波电路检测出低频偶次分量,再通过I／Q调制器产生三阶与五阶交调分量从而改善射频功率放大器的三阶交调分量(IMD3)和五阶交调分量(IMD5)。将该技术应用到 CDMA25W射频功率放大器中,可使输出信号的三阶交调和五阶交调分别改善了11dBc和7dBc。     

IMD-WEF国际竞争力评价比较研究——以中国为例

从IMD和WEF对中国国际竞争力评价存在很大差异的事实出发，基于两机构基本理论与方法，以及评价结果数据的比较研究，得到了以下基本结论：IMD和WEF对竞争力概念的不同认识，是产生差异的理论背景；其相应的竞争力模型、指标体系、综合信息处理方法设计，是评价结果产生差异的决定因素；就中国而言，决定差异的因素集中体现在与GDP相关的指标、对外收入指标及就业人口规模等指标数据的影响。     

The geography of deprivation in New Zealand by electorate

ABSTRACT

In the run-up to the 2017 General Election, the economy, housing, health, education, inequality and justice were important policy issues. General Elections are a time when voters exercise their democratic right to vote for their preferred party and parliamentary candidate to represent themselves, their whānau and community. In many cases, political parties’ policies seek to improve the wellbeing of people who are living in more deprived communities, but people in deprived communities are typically less likely to vote. The recently released New Zealand Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) enables users to explore deprivation in electorates across the country. This paper compares the distribution of deprivation and voter turnout across a selection of General Electoral Districts (GEDs) and demonstrates that while overall patterns of deprivation may be similar between GEDs, the drivers of these patterns can differ immensely.
