This paper describes the dynamic changes in research productivity of Chinese higher education institutions (HEIs) before and
after merger with Malmquist index, and decomposes the total factor productivity change index into catching-up effect, scale
effect and frontier-shift effect. The main finding is that technological improvement and innovation are important factors
to improve scientific research productivity of Chinese HEIs.

The concept of job-hunting is an important factor affecting university students’ employment. This empirical study shows that
while hunting for a job, graduates witness negative correlation between their expectation of the nature of work and the demand
for occupational types and the accessibility to a post and monthly income; positive correlation between students’ initiative
and employment opportunities; positive correlation between salary expectation and real income; negative correlation between
mental preparation for hardship and job satisfaction. Therefore, institutions of higher learning must strengthen their employment
education, guiding students to foster a sound sense of competition, the concept of occupational position, mental preparation
for vocational hardship so that students can rectify their attitude towards employment and adjust their employment concept,
thus benefiting them in gaining a position.

The dynamic response of moored crane-ship is studied. Governing equations for the dynamic response of a crane-ship coupled with the pendulum motion of the payload are derived based on Lagrange's equations. The boom is modeled based on finite element method, while the payload is modeled as a planar pendulum of point mass. The dynamic response was studied using numerical method. The calculation results show that the large-amplitude responses occur at wave periods near the natural period of the payload. Load swing angle is smaller for crane-ship with flexible boom, in comparison with rigid boom. The ship surge motions have large vibrations for crane-ship with flexible boom, which were not observed for a rigid boom. The analysis identifies the significance of key parameters and reveals how the system design can be adjusted to avoid critical conditions. 相似文献
Pictures are commonly used to represent problems. However, it is unclear how the addition of pictures affects students’ problem-solving performance. The multimedia effect in problem solving describes the phenomenon whereby an individual’s problem-solving performance is enhanced when equivalent pictures are added to illustrate or replace part of the problem text. Using meta-analytic techniques, this study sought to determine the overall size of the multimedia effect in problem solving and the possible boundary conditions (k = 51; N = 38,987; Range n = 10 – 31,842; Median n = 63). The results showed a significant small-to-medium multimedia effect size on response accuracy (Hedges’s g = 0.32) and a significant medium-to-large multimedia effect size on students’ response certainty (Hedges’s g = 0.74), but no significant multimedia effect on response time. The results for the effects of decorative pictures were not sufficient for a reliable interpretation. Representational (Hedges’s g = 0.24) and organizational (Hedges’s g = 0.52) pictures had a significant and positive impact on response accuracy, but informational or multiple pictures across studies did not have a significant aggregate effect on an individual’s response accuracy. These findings suggest that the multimedia effect in problem solving is diverse and limited by multiple boundary conditions. Further primary studies are needed to further investigate the multimedia effect in problem solving.
