中国农村地区教育与个人收入——基于三省六县入户调查数据的实证研究

基于2009—2010年浙江、安徽和陕西三省六县的农村入户调查数据,就中国当前农村地区教育与个人收入之间的关系进行实证研究。研究结果显示,中国当前农村地区个人教育收益率已经达到一个较高水平。在运用工具变量法纠正内生性低估问题后,收益率估计结果达到13.1%。通过与以往估计结果的对比分析发现,教育收益率增长主要是由计量方法改善所致,由制度环境改善所引致的"自然增长"部分相对较少。此外,农村地区后义务教育收益率远高于义务教育收益率,而普通教育收益率显著低于职业教育与培训收益率。     

中国大学教授委员会制度的本质论析

中国大学教授委员会制度具有突出的自身特点,它的基本类型是二元权力分离适度渗透型,它的基本定位是基层学术组织学术事务的决策机构,它的核心职能是治学。中国大学教授委员会制度的本质是“教授治学”。“教授治学”并不是对“教授治校”的否定,而是目前对中国大学教授委员会核心职能更为准确的表述。“教授治学”的内涵是对学术事务包括学科、学术、学风和教学进行管理与决策。     

Regional association criteria and the standards for college libraries: The informal role of quantitative input measures for libraries in accreditation

Librarians use the Standards for College Libraries in accreditation reviews, and most accrediting bodies, while not formally adopting the Standards, deem them a credible auxiliary tool. A comparison reveals they address issues raised by accreditation criteria. Questions about them remain, however, and a demonstrable basis in research would increase their usefulness.     

Ethnicity and Community Context as Moderators of the Relations between Family Decision Making and Adolescent Adjustment

This study investigated whether the impact of 3 types of family decision making on the adjustment of 14–16-year-old youth was moderated by ethnicity, community context, or both. For joint and unilateral youth decision making, community context interacted with ethnicity in 3 patterns of influence: for Hispanic-American youth, variations in decision making had a stronger impact in ethnically mixed than in predominantly white communities; for African-American youth, the negative impact of unilateral youth decision making was stronger in predominantly white communities; and for Asian- and European-American youth, community context did not make a difference. For unilateral parental decision making, the popular hypothesis that apparent ethnic differences in the influence of parental strictness on adolescent adjustment are primarily due to differences in community context was not supported. Rather, the positive impact of unilateral parental decision making was similar among African-American youth living in predominantly white, and more affluent, communities or in more disadvantaged, ethnically mixed neighborhoods. The negative impact of authoritarian parenting was similar among European-American youth living in less advantaged communities as well as more affluent ones. There was no relation between unilateral parental control and adolescent adjustment of Asian- or Hispanic-American youth in either type of community.
