青少年心理学研究的一项重要成果——评《中国青少年心理健康素质调查研究》一书

阅读了沈德立教授历时五年完成的教育部哲学社会科学研究重大课题攻关项目成果《中国青少年心理健康素质调查研究》一书（经济科学出版社2009年版）以后,感到这是近年来我国心理学界关于青少年心理学研究方面有新观点、新资料、以＂我＂为主的高水平学术著作。     

The Convergent Validity of Four Burnout Measures in a Chinese Sample: A Confirmatory Factor‐Analytic Approach

The purpose of this paper is to study the convergent validity of the four most widely used burnout measures in a sample of Chinese nurses (N= 717). First, Structural Equation Modeling was used to investigate the factor structure of scores produced by the Maslach Burnout Inventory‐General Survey (MBI‐GS), the Burnout Measure (BM), the Shirom‐Melamed Burnout Measure (SMBM), and the Oldenburg Burnout Inventory (OLBI). Next, several competing models were tested to investigate the convergent validity of these four burnout instruments. The final results suggest that burnout is best conceived of as a multidimensional construct consisting of exhaustion and withdrawal, which are two related but conceptually distinct aspects. In addition, positively phrased items should be dropped from burnout measures for they constitute a separate factor that is considered to be an artifact.     

时态结构中的恒常联系因果学习

人工智能研究中,行动这一概念通常在理论框架中有完全的定义。然而,现实中的行动有时难以完全刻画。智能体需要从过去的经验观察中习得行动的后果。本文提出一种基于时态结构的行动一结果学习理论。在自然数时间结构中,智能体通过观察过去的恒常联系建立因果关系。智能体依据己建立的因果关系指导将来的行动。同时,我们给出关于该理论的一个完全的逻辑演绎系统,并给出基于该逻辑的智能体行动的有效算法。     

《心理统计学》教学内容的新探索

本文在对当前国内外主要心理统计学教材进行比较的基础上,指出与上个世纪八十年代的心理统计学教材内容相比较,在内容上的新探索主要体现在（1）由“假设检验”的内容中发展出“统计检验力”和“效果大小”的统计指标和估计方法;（2）引进一般线性模型来统合方差分析和回归分析这两种统计方法;（3）适度增加一些“多元统计分析”的内容等三个方面.本文对前两个方面的新内容作了简要评述,并对教材内容的编排方面提出了新的思路.     

Language aptitude for pronunciation in advanced second language (L2) Learners: Behavioural predictors and neural substrates

Individual differences in second language (L2) aptitude have been assumed to depend upon a variety of cognitive and personality factors. Especially, the cognitive factor phonological working memory has been conceptualised as language learning device. However, strong associations between phonological working memory and L2 aptitude have been previously found in early-stage learners only, not in advanced learners. The current study aimed at investigating the behavioural and neurobiological predictors of advanced L2 learning. Our behavioural results showed that phonetic coding ability and empathy, but not phonological working memory, predict L2 pronunciation aptitude in advanced learners. Second, functional neuroimaging revealed this behavioural trait to be correlated with hemodynamic responses of the cerebral network of speech motor control and auditory-perceptual areas. We suggest that the acquisition of L2 pronunciation aptitude is a dynamic process, requiring a variety of neural resources at different processing stages over time.     

Body image perceptions among Chinese children and adolescents

In order to investigate the body image self-perception and the prevalence of body dissatisfaction among Chinese children and adolescents, 9100 children aged 3-15 years living in four cities completed a questionnaire assessing body image self-percepts and ideals by figural stimuli. The results indicate that (1) children's body ratings started to be significantly related to their BMIs at age 5 and correlations increased with age; (2) a wide range of current body sizes was chosen by Chinese boys and girls; (3) the ideal body sizes of boys and girls selected by boys and girls, respectively, were "boys by boys">"boys by girls">"girls by boys">"girls by girls" and (4) the satisfaction, mild dissatisfaction, and moderate dissatisfaction rates were 40.1%, 36.4% and 23.5%, respectively. Differences as a function of gender and age were identified. It was concluded that the prevalence of body dissatisfaction among children and adolescents of urban China was striking, and that the Chinese boys were not immune to body dissatisfaction.     

肢体延长与美容增高的启示

美容医学持续升温,“美容增高”即“肢体延长术”被越来越多的爱美男女所尝试。纵观其发展经历了许多挫折与失败,并发症多且严重,应慎重认识其实际效果。如不加选择地运用美容医学,是对医学核心价值体系的扭曲和嘲弄。只有坚持运用正确的哲学思维进行引导,肢体延长术才会健康发展。     

难忘的修行功课——写在纪念中国道教学院建院十五周年之际

光阴荏苒,岁月如流。弹指间,离开母校道教学院已历时十三个春秋。而这座世界上唯一的道教最高学府亦随着时光的脚步,在广大学子们热切的期盼和无限祝福声中,迎来了自己第十五个生日。蓦然回首,往事历历在目。同众多道门学子一样,我们都曾在这片充满希望有热土上留下过自己的足迹,播种过理想的种子,对母校中国道教学院这个庄严神圣的名字,抱含着无比深厚的情愫。十五年的奋斗岁月,十五年的辉煌历程,母校为道门培育出一批又一批中流砥柱,为继承和发展道教事业增添了无穷的后继力量。作为从母校学习毕业的学子,多年来,我们无不在母校甘醇的乳汁…     

儒家中观经济论

一现存经济学理论的困扰与难题 作为哲学的一个部门或分支,"经济哲学"已受到学术界愈来愈多的关注与重视.然而,何谓经济哲学?在将历史上某种思想观念纳入经济哲学的视野中加以探讨时,首先面临的是"正名"的事情.本文将经济哲学理解为对于人类经济活动以及经济思想观念所做的"哲学探讨".从这种意义上说,它应当是"经济学"所赖以成立的基础.它要追问的问题其实有两个:(1)历史上人类所从事的经济活动的本性究竟如何?(2)经济学理论的主旨与目标究竟如何?故之,经济哲学其实既可以是"经济的哲学",又可以指"经济学的哲学",这正如所谓"历史哲学"既可以是"历史的哲学"(历史的形而上学),又可以是"历史学的哲学"(历史的认识论或"史学理论")一样.对于像经济哲学这样一门部门哲学来说,对人类经济活动的哲学反思与对经济学理论的哲学反思其实是难以截然分开的.因此说,它既是对于人类经济活动的反思,同时亦是对于人类经济思想观念(经济学理论)的反思.     

Averaging to minimize or eliminate regression toward the mean to measure pure experimental effects

This paper explains how regression toward the mean can contaminate diary data, making it difficult to measure the pure effects of an experimental variable over time. Using a large scale real-life database collected by AT&T, a method of measuring this mathematical artifact is advanced. It is shown to manifest very quickly as a result of a spontaneous reaction toward happenstance, with the most extreme initial values gravitating most toward the mean. Then averaging over longer and longer periods of time to define use categories is shown to dilute happenstance increasingly, and therefore progressively minimizes or eliminates regression toward the mean. Finally, regression toward the mean is very pervasive and very persistent.
