Factors Influencing Household Waste Recycling Behavior: Test of an integrated Model1

Although there has been an official household waste recycling system in Taiwan, the system still works rather inefficiently because of problems such as resistance from citizens, political complexity, and those arising from culture. This study examines the antecedents of the behavior of household waste recycling in the context of an integrated model. This model incorporates a wide variety of important factors from previous research on environmental behavior into a single theoretical framework provided by the theory of planned behavior (TPB). This model was tested using data from a sample of 386 community residents in Kaohsiung, each of whom completed a survey. The results suggest that in addition to the TPB variables, perceived moral obligation further improved the prediction of intention to recycle household waste. Implications for operating household waste recycling systems are discussed.     

科学不需要超验的信仰

目前在有些科学工作者和哲学工作者中间,流 传着这样一种看法:似乎科学也是离不开超经验信 仰的。据说科学的每一个环节里都可以分析出大量 的非实证因素,没有对这些因素的信仰,科学就寸 步难行。显然,这是一种误解。科学是对客观世界 规律性的探索,它的任何认识成果都要经受实践的 检验,这就注定它与非实证的、超经验的因素有本 质的区别。它弘扬的是科学的理念而非超自然的信 仰。上述误解很容易被利用来模糊科学与有神论、 科学与伪科学的界限,其危害性是不难看出的。因 此,有必要来澄清相关的一些含糊的、似是而非的 说法。     

中庸工作重塑研究

采用中庸思想作为研究的理论基础,建构中庸工作重塑概念,并应用于工作要求-资源模型检验其构思效度。在288名医务人员中探索中庸工作重塑的结构,在178名医务人员中验证结构,并探讨中庸工作重塑在工作要求或工作资源与工作投入及工作倦怠之间的中介效应。研究结果发现,中庸工作重塑是由个体取向和群体取向构成的两维结构的工作重塑。其中,在工作要求-资源模型的压力机制中,人们通过工作重塑来降低工作要求引致的工作倦怠,促进工作投入;而在其激励机制中,人们通过工作重塑会增强工作资源的激励作用,促进工作投入。     

道教道性论浅议

隋唐时期,中国道教正式开始对得道成仙之依据等问题进行了深入探讨,从而提出了具有非常重要理论意义的“道性”论。“道性”论的提出,极大地推进了道教的学理化进程。它不仅对众生悟道成仙的理论根据进行了严密的论证,而且还大大简化了道教的修炼程序,把修道的重点安置在修己一     

论红色政权区域的道德变化

在红色政权区域，中国共产党开展了以土地革命为基础的经济改革和民主政治建设，通过教育等途径培育了人们新的世界观、人生观，对传统习俗和道德进行了更为深入的荡涤，推进了区域内以全心全意为人民服务为宗旨，以集体主义为核心的新道德的建立，两性伦理方面的自由在理论和操作层面更为广泛。     

Occupational Stress in Workers and Managers in Steelworks in China

Occupational stressors and strains of 121 Chinese steelwork employees and 122 managers were measured using the Chinese version of the Occupational Stress Indicator (OSI). It was found that factors intrinsic to the job, Type A behavior, logic, and organizational structure and climate were the main predictors of mental ill-health and physical ill-health in managers. Organizational structure and climate and relationships with other people were important predictors for workers. Management processes and organizational forces were the strongest predicting factors of job satisfaction in both samples. On certain OSI scales and subscales, managers scored statistically higher than workers. It is proposed that these results reflect the enormous economic and social changes currently taking place in China, together with certain features inherent in Chinese organizational and managerial processes.
