韵律特征对句法结构歧义解歧作用的实验研究

本研究通过对不同类型歧义句的语义理解实验并结合声学参数测量分析研究了韵律特征对不同类型歧义句的解歧作用,同时对韵律特征消解层次切分歧义的机制问题进行了深入探讨。实验结果表明,韵律对不同类型歧义句解歧效果不一。对层次切分歧义句的深入研究表明,歧义音节的前后停顿时长是消解层次切分歧义的最主要的手段。     

评述早期儿童认知发展的神经科学研究

神经科学的迅猛发展,尤其是神经科学新的研究手段的广泛运用,使得神经科学在儿童早期认知发展的神经机制研究中取得了长足的进展。本文主要涉及神经发育中神经系统的可塑性、关键期,以及知觉、注意、记忆和空间认知等认知发展诸多方面的神经机制。     

骨科学的新进展及其在治疗中的应用

现代各学科的交叉和融汇已经使骨科的临床诊疗技术有了革命性的进展,医学各学科之间以及医学与其它学科之间的交叉引用、促进发展体现了哲学体系中"综合"的概念.通过对近年来骨科发展的一些新思路的浅见来窥探综合理念在本领域应用的前景,试图阐明从学科交叉寻找合理且有前景的增长点也是未来骨科发展的必由之路.     

胸腔镜肺切除术治疗肺部恶性肿瘤的合理性

通过回顾近年电视胸腔镜手术(VATS)在治疗非小细胞肺癌的进展,得出以下结论:在有经验的胸外科医师手中,VATS肺叶切除术是一种安全有效、死亡率和并发症发生率很低的术式。VATS肺叶切除是一种完全的肺部肿瘤切除手术,在有选择的早期病例可以达到与开胸手术一样的生存率。但这种术式并不适用于全部肺部恶性肿瘤和所有胸外科医师。     

Religion and Forgiveness from a Hong Kong Chinese Perspective

This study investigated the relationship between religion and forgiveness in a sample of Hong Kong Chinese teachers (n=230) and students (n=714). Findings indicated some influence from Chinese cultural values in the conceptualization of forgiveness. Religious affiliation was the strongest predictor of concepts of forgiveness, whereas religious practice predicted attitudes toward “forgivingness” and the practice of forgiveness. No significant difference in forgiveness between believers and non-believers in real life situations was reported. Implications for future research on forgiveness are discussed.We wish to acknowledge the University of Hong Kong Committee on Research and Conference Grants for funding our research. Portions of this paper were presented at the 3rd Annual Mid-Year Research Conference on Religion and Spirituality sponsored by Division 36 of the American Psychological Association and the Department of Pastoral Counseling at Loyola College in Maryland April 1–2, 2005.     

Agonistic behaviour and bite wound patterns in wild water voles (Arvicola terrestris L.)

Intra‐specific aggression was investigated in a wild colony of Water voles between 1999 and 2004 in South Wales, UK. The occurrence and location (i.e. on the head, neck, body or tail) of bite wounds were recorded for adult and juvenile male and female voles. The greatest (33%) incidence of bite wounds were recorded on juvenile females and the lowest (18%) in adult females. Seasonal analysis of wound data in adults revealed that females were more likely to be bitten during the breeding season whereas bite patterns in males did not vary seasonally. Analysis of bite pattern topography revealed that most Water voles seemingly attempt to bite vulnerable target areas of the body (namely the head and tail). This is in contrast with studies on rats and mice where competitive forms of attack (particularly involving males) largely avoid these areas of the attacked animal's body. Targeting vulnerable areas is normally a characteristic of defensive modes of attack. Patterns of bite topography and agonistic behaviour in this species seem to reflect competitive interactions between individuals, particularly between territorial females and their female offspring, over access to essential resources.

浅谈医学教育中的多媒体课件制作与启发、诱导式教学

合理地制作和运用多媒体课件,并充分发挥它的优势,与现代医学教育的启发、诱导式教学相结合.教员本身对所讲内容要充分理解,掌握多媒体课件制作的技巧,把自己的想法恰当地融入到幻灯片中.在实际运用过程中有一些具体的方法,如逐步出现、适当修饰、利用超级链接、合理插入图片、把正常片和异常片同时出现在一张幻灯片上等.

非医用胚胎植入前基因诊断性别的伦理思考

对胚胎植入前基因诊断(PGD)性别的非医学用途,尚有很多争议.从伦理学角度考虑,非医用PGD性别选择存在文化差异,在亚洲一些国家可能会引起人口性别比失衡以及性别歧视等,在西方一些国家可能不存在类似问题.
