科学主义的尴尬与中医学的多向度发展

近５０年的中医现代化研究暴露了科学主义试图消解其他向度存在的独尊倾向,而经络实质研究、证客观化研究等方面的失败,宣告了科学主义并不是解决中医学所有问题的灵丹妙药。科学主义所遇到的这种尴尬局面表明,中医学应该有多种向度的发展,除了现代化研究这一模式之外,至少还应当有两种向度的存在,即原有形态的传统中医学体系应继续存在下去,传统中医学在技术上与西医学的结合应当受到鼓励。     

Prosody and lemma selection

In three picture-naming experiments, we examined the effect of prosodic context on the synonyms people use to name pictures in Mandarin Chinese. This was done without time pressure. The results showed that when monosyllabic and bisyllabic synonyms (e.g., hen/chicken) were embedded in a context of pictures with either bisyllabic or trisyllabic names, participants gave bisyllabic responses to the synonyms more often than they did in a condition without such a context. The difference was very similar in magnitude in both the bisyllabic and trisyllabic contextual conditions. These results suggest that people are biased toward using synonyms that have numbers of syllables equal or similar to those of the prosodic context. If it is assumed that prosodic effects originate at a stage of processing beyond the lemma level, then this suggests either that multiple phonological forms of synonyms can be activated or that there is feedback from prosodic processing that influences lemma selection.     

“神医”现象的剖析

当前“神医”并非罕见,他们常施展浑身解数,或给自己戴上自制的各种“高帽”、“大帽”、什么“国标抗癌协会主席;或假借名人、甚或政界要人的提携,多少沾点余光;或让身世充满着曲折离奇的迷露,对于“神医”的泛滥,当务 急是对全民进行破除迷信、崇尚宾教育,提高全慢旗的心理素质。     

“犯罪人心理”与“犯罪心理”辨析

关于“犯罪心理结构”之争,已经集中在“犯罪心理”或“犯罪人心理”这个焦点上。反对“犯罪心理结构”者认为,犯罪心理实际上是不存在的,犯罪人心理在很多方面（甚至一切方面）同守法公民没有区别。因此,犯罪心理学实际上是一门研究“犯罪人心理”的学科。笔者认为,这是一种违反逻辑的、必将导致取消犯罪心理学的推论。

试论台湾佛教四大道场崛起的原因

台湾南部的佛光山、东部的慈济功德会、北部的法鼓山、中部的中台山,是台湾当代佛教崛起的四大道场,它掌握了台湾佛教界的大部份社会资源,已成台湾佛教发展的方向。这四大道场在短期内崛起有着多方面原因,如:有明确的目标、有各自的鲜明特点、创办者都是经营管理大师、有高超的口才、注意对人才吸收培养、注意与祖国大陆保持沟通和联系、积极向海外拓展、努力适应台湾社会的变化、与社会产生互动等。
