朱子思想中的内在困境——由朱子哲学向阳明哲学衍化的可能性分析

朱子思想原本有着对于生活境域、对于“形而上”与“形而下”之间的活境的深刻感受。然而，朱子终不能抵挡思想史上常有的现成化倾向，最终造成思想与生活、形而上与形而下的割裂。王阳明思想的一个重大意义就是克服朱子思想中这种内在的不协调之处。     

Childhood sexual and physical abuse and the 1-year prevalence of medical problems in the National Comorbidity Survey.

In a population sample (N=5,877; ages 15 to 54), the authors found childhood sexual and physical abuse to be associated with the 1-year prevalence of serious health problems for both men and women. The authors also found that participants' psychiatric disorders partially mediated the effects of physical and sexual abuse on adult health. However, childhood abuse continued to independently influence health status after the authors controlled for psychiatric disorders. Contrary to expectations, individuals who experienced a combination of sexual and physical abuse did not have a higher frequency of health problems than those who experienced either type of abuse alone. Implications for these findings are discussed, including possible mechanisms that may account for the association between childhood abuse and adult health problems.

A Neural Network Model for Attribute-Based Decision Processes

We propose a neural model of multiattribute-decision processes, based on an attractor neural network with dynamic thresholds. The model may be viewed as a generalization of the elimination by aspects model, whereby simultaneous selection of several aspects is allowed. Depending on the amount of synaptic inhibition, various kinds of scanning strategies may be performed, leading in some cases to vacillations among the alternatives. The model predicts that decisions of a longer time duration exhibit a lower violation of the simple scalability law, as opposed to shorter decisions. Furthermore, the model is suggested as a general attribute-based decision module. Accordingly, various decision strategies are manifested depending on the module's parameters.
