Men as Allies: The Efficacy of a High School Rape Prevention Intervention

This study investigated the effects of a Men as Allies‐based intervention on high school students' rape‐supportive attitudes and behaviors. As hypothesized at posttest, the male and female experimental groups demonstrated a significant decrease in rape‐supportive attitudes, which was maintained at follow‐up. Male participants viewed peers' attitudes toward sexual violence as significantly different (worse) from peers' pretest self‐ratings; after intervention, male and female experimental group participants' peer ratings were significantly more accurate.     

碎片化中的底层表达——云南水电开发争论中的民间环保组织

在我国的社会转型过程中,底层群体由于自身缺资源、内部缺组织、外部缺互动而呈现碎片化的趋势.加之制度化表达渠道的不通畅,底层群体往往难以表达和捍卫自身的利益.然而,在云南水电开发争议中,怒江和金沙江流域的沿江村民却一再公开地表达了自己的反对态度,进而提出移民在水电开发中应该享有"四权".这一次底层表达的成功是民间环保组织实现跨组织合作、直接进入沿江社区进行组织和动员的结果.云南水电争议表明,在确保一定合法性空间的前提下,民间环保组织可以突破"小世界"的局限,参与到涉及重大利益冲突的问题中来.同时民间环保组织之间合作制度化的趋势,也将增强民间环保组织重组底层社会的潜力.

韩国新宗教发展趋势及影响研究——韩国新宗教的"逸脱"问题为中心

近代以来,东亚的韩国和日本等国家都是新宗教迭兴的国家,其教派数量之多,社会影响之深广,在世界上也极为罕见.因此,人们常把韩国称为"世界宗教博物馆",日本称之为"宗教大百科".若把韩国和日本的新宗教基本情况及相关问题研究清楚,对了解和研究当今世界新宗教发生的原因、特点、作用、影响等当有极大的参考价值,特别是对社会转型中的中国社会具有重要的借鉴意义.     

Production of Inflected Novel Words in Older Adults With and Without Dementia

While cognitive changes in aging and neurodegenerative disease have been widely studied, language changes in these populations are less well understood. Inflecting novel words in a language with complex inflectional paradigms provides a good opportunity to observe how language processes change in normal and abnormal aging. Studies of language acquisition suggest that children inflect novel words based on their phonological similarity to real words they already know. It is unclear whether speakers continue to use the same strategy when encountering novel words throughout the lifespan or whether adult speakers apply symbolic rules. We administered a simple speech elicitation task involving Finnish-conforming pseudo-words and real Finnish words to healthy older adults, individuals with mild cognitive impairment, and individuals with Alzheimer's disease (AD) to investigate inflectional choices in these groups and how linguistic variables and disease severity predict inflection patterns. Phonological resemblance of novel words to both a regular and an irregular inflectional type, as well as bigram frequency of the novel words, significantly influenced participants' inflectional choices for novel words among the healthy elderly group and people with AD. The results support theories of inflection by phonological analogy (single-route models) and contradict theories advocating for formal symbolic rules (dual-route models).     

Blue Monday Is Real for Suicide: A Case–Control Study of 188,601 Suicides

Many studies have reported that suicides tend to occur on Mondays. However, owing to a lack of controls, conclusive findings on the potential effects of a day of the week on suicides have been lacking. We analyzed public data for causes of death from 1997 to 2015 in the Republic of Korea. Accidental death was used as a control group. The probability of suicide on each day of the week according to age group was calculated. A total of 377,204 deaths (188,601 suicides and 188,603 accidental deaths) were used. The frequency of suicide was highest on Monday and decreased throughout the week until Saturday. Accidental death was highest on Saturday and showed no variations according to weekday. For people in their teens and 20s, the probabilities of suicide on Monday were 9% and 10% higher, respectively, than those on Sunday. As age increased, the differences in suicide probability according to the day of the week were attenuated. The so‐called Blue Monday effect is real, particularly for people in their teens and 20s. Suicide prevention strategies that aim to attenuate the burden and stress of Mondays should be planned.
