当前基督教与民间信仰共处情况的调查与分析——以闽南H县J镇为例

在基督教和民间信仰的发展都很强势的地区,基督教和民间信仰之间的共处关系,受到基督教的全球地域化特征的强烈影响:基督教地域化后出现的民间信仰化趋势,使得基督教日益被接纳为乡土社会的组成要素;而基督教的全球化特征,又使得它与乡土社会之间始终存在着一定的张力。在基督教与民间信仰既混融又紧张的环境下,闽南H县J镇民众在社会资本与宗教资本之间的理性选择行为,给乡土社会的信仰秩序的建构带来了复杂的图景。     

Directing idea generation using brainstorming with specific novelty goals

In a field experiment with students, we show that a specific, difficult novelty goal, whether presented alone or in conjunction with brainstorming rules, improves novelty and creativity in individuals’ idea generation relative to brainstorming rules alone when goal commitment is high. Because creativity is often correlated with idea quantity in brainstorming studies, we controlled for idea quantity in order to demonstrate that the improvement is not due to changes in the number of ideas generated. These findings suggest that specific, difficult goals beyond quantity can improve idea generation. We also separately measured practicality and effectiveness of participants’ ideas. The results of these analyses suggest that goal commitment might be an important determinant of usefulness, and deserves additional attention in studies of idea generation.     

The effects of early socialization experiences on content mastery and outcomes: A mediational approach

This field study examined how early socialization experiences affect new employee mastery of socialization content and socialization outcomes. New employees reported the realism of their preentry knowledge and the helpfulness of socialization agents. A follow-up survey assessed mastery of socialization content along with role clarity, job satisfaction, and affective organizational commitment. The results, based on 194 new employees of a large educational institution and using structural equation modeling, were highly supportive of the hypotheses. Realism of preentry knowledge and agent helpfulness, the two indicators of early socialization experiences, were associated with greater role clarity, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment. In addition, the mastery of specific socialization content dimensions, the often-assumed intervening processes, was explicitly shown to mediate those relationships. The specific patterns of mediation observed further advance our understanding of the relationships between new employee mastery of socialization content and the determinants and consequences of that mastery.     

董仲舒思想的易学底蕴

汉代儒家领军人物董仲舒的主要哲学著作《春秋繁露》蕴含着深厚的易学功底,其哲学基本上是《易经》的阴阳学说的引申,主要体现在:一、“阳尊阴卑”的阴阳观,二、感应论,三、“天地人”三才之道与法天及“与时偕行”的思想,四、“见微知著”的发展规律论,五、“神道设教”与灾异谴告说的内在联系。董子对于易学思想的继承与发扬更具有自觉与圆融的特点,从而使自身的思想与传统易学浑然一体。     

民国前福建祠庙神明配置的研究

民国以前,福建官方与民间在祠庙神明配置的认识上有着很大差异。官方大多把祠庙的神明配置视为是发挥官方祭祀的教化作用的一个舞台,民间在安排祠庙的神明配置时则更多地考虑到神明的灵验性。不过,官方与民间在对祠庙神明配置的认识上尽管各有侧重,但并非截然对立。官方在充分发挥官方祠庙神明配置的教化作用的同时,也对民间的神明配置规则进行了改造和利用,以此来“补王化之所不及”;当然,民间对祠庙神明配置的认识在受到官方影响的同时,也对之作出积极的回应。     

工作压力对建设型和防御型建言的差异影响

以往研究普遍从建言行为的建设性意图特征出发, 探讨其关键前因、产生机制和情境因素, 但却较少关注建言行为的工具性目的。基于资源保存理论, 本研究构建了有调节的中介模型以探讨工作压力影响员工建设型建言和防御型建言的作用机制和边界条件。通过对某建筑企业386名员工进行两阶段调查, 结果表明：工作压力与防御型建言存在正向相关关系, 与建设型建言存在负向相关关系, 自我损耗在其中起中介作用; 另外, 领导开明性正向调节自我损耗和建设型建言的负向相关关系, 并正向调节工作压力通过自我损耗影响建设型建言的间接效应。     

决策理由、行动和后果对决策后悔的影响

探讨决策理由(合理与不合理)、行动(做与不做)和后果(严重与轻微)对决策后悔的影响,以2×2×2被试内设计,设置8个决策情境进行实验。结果:不合理决策的后悔体验比合理决策更高,严重的后果导致的后悔比轻微的后果更高,行动无主效应,但在后果轻微,理由不正当条件下,行动也就是“做”导致更多的后悔情绪。结论:决策理由的合理性与后果的严重性是影响决策后悔的重要因素; 只有理由不正当且后果轻微时,才存在“做效应”。

Suicidality among high school students in Hong Kong, SAR

Suicide is the leading cause of death in Hong Kong SAR for the youth aged 15-24. This study examined the prevalence of suicidality among secondary school students in Hong Kong using a representative, territory-wide sample of 2,586 students. Suicidal behaviors can be conceptualized as a spectrum of self-destructive behaviors. Cumulative logit model analysis indicated that a range of factors, such as unhappy family life, were associated with increasing levels of suicidality. Use of illicit drugs, inhalants, and tobacco differentiated attempters from ideators. The implications of the research findings are discussed.     

A Logic for Disjunctive Ignorance

In this paper, we introduce a notion of ‘disjunctive ignorance’, which is a weak combination of two forms of ignorance in the literature. We propose a logical language with ‘disjunctive ignorance’ as a sole modality, explore the logical properties of this notion and its related notions, and axiomatize it over various frame classes. By finding suitable reduction axioms, we extend the results to the case of public announcements and apply it to Moore-like sentences.
