Racial stereotypes revisited

Fifty-one black and 66 white college students were administered the Katz and Braly Checklist (1933) and instructed to select five adjectives that best described first themselves, second, black Americans, and third, white Americans. They then rated each adjective on a favorability scale from 1 to 5. Changes in the content of stereotypes were determined by calculating the 10 most frequently checked adjectives for black and for white Americans and comparing that with data from Katz and Braly (1933), Bayton (1941) and Maykovich (1972). Currently, black Americans are described as musical, loyal to family ties, very religious, progressive, ambitious, and quick-tempered. White Americans are described as intelligent, materialistic, ambitious, industrious, conventional, and conservative. The content of the white stereotype remained more stable over the years than the black stereotype. The white stereotype has slowly decreased in favorability over the years while the black stereotype has increased. Black and white students rated themselves more favorably than they rated the other or their own race.

“五个重庆”建设效果的阶段性评估与思考

对重庆市民的调研表明,"五个重庆"建设在提高重庆影响力、增强市民信心和认同感等方面效果明显,市民对其成效普遍认同,并认为"五个重庆"建设意义重大,具有推广价值;其中,"森林重庆"建设成效最为显著,而"畅通重庆"、"平安重庆"、"健康重庆"、"宜居重庆"依次减弱。"五个重庆"理念体现了城市的多元化和可持续化发展,也坚持了以人为本,为城市发展指明了方向,对重庆市城市发展具有积极意义,也值得其他城市借鉴。重庆应持续、统筹推进"五个重庆"建设,人人参与"五个重庆"建设。     

近15 年海南岛林地资源时空动态特征及政策驱动

遥感(RS)和地理信息系统(GIs)技术的发展为林地资源的调查和时空变化分析提供了有效手段.该文在遥感与地理信息系统技术支持下,利用中国资源环境数据库中1985年、1995年和2000年3期林地类型空间分布数据,通过建立林地资源时空演变模型,对海南岛林地资源变化的时空特征进行了定量分析,结果表明:1985年～2000年15年内,海南岛林地发生了大幅度的变化,而且空间差异非常明显,其中最近5年林地变化的广度和深度都远远超过了前1O年.1985年～1995年海南岛林地资源总量出现大幅度增加,尤其是有林地的增长特别明显;而1995年～2000年大量的林地转为耕地和城镇建设用地,该时期有林地、灌木林和疏林地都出现大幅度减少.从空间格局来看,海口市在整个15年内,林地的变化始终最为突出,东部沿海县市,如文昌、琼海、万宁、陵水、保亭等林地变化的动态度和减少的数量都远远大于其他地区.文章还进一步分析了政策因子对林地资源变化的影响.     

Inclusion at risk? Push- and pull-out phenomena in inclusive school systems: the Italian and Norwegian experiences

The main objective of this article is to explore and compare research data on pull-out and push-out phenomena within inclusive school systems, discussing if and how they represent a risk for inclusion. The terms pull-out and push-out refer to situations in which some groups of students in regular schools learn in settings apart from their peers. Typically, the terms push out and pull out refer to students with disabilities or other special-education needs, but the phenomenon does not refer to these groups exclusively. Italy and Norway are among the European countries that first established inclusive school systems through laws that explicitly refer to what later was to become global inclusive education ideas. Both countries have a reputation for inclusive education and a history of addressing segregation of students with disabilities. However, in both countries, recent data have shown an increase in the removal of students with disabilities and other SEN from regular classrooms. Our aim is to describe and analyse these phenomena through national statistics and data from different independent research projects. Results indicate that, contrary to intentions, special-education-school-type solutions persist along with flexible adaptations within whole-class and group settings for all children.     

金沙县湖水生态林场森林资源的生态经济价值评估

森林资源的生态经济价值除传统意义上的林木、林地等有形价值外,还应包括其生态价值、社会价值在内.全面合理地评估这些价值是开展森林资源资产化管理的一项基础性工作.应用市场价值法、机会成本法、影子价格法等,评估了金沙湖水生态林场的生态经济价值,以期为制定和实施相应的保护、开发森林资源的政策提供一些科学依据.     

贵州韭菜坪石林形态差异性分析

在对贵州韭菜坪石林进行采样测量的基础上,根据石林形态的相似性和差异性对石林形态进行了分区,分析了不同微地貌部位石林形态特征的差异性以及影响石林形态差异的主要因素。同时,根据石林形态的测量数据,对石林形态进行了计量分析,结果也显示了不同地貌部位之间石林形态的差别,方差检验的结果也表明了韭菜坪石林形态的差异性是由于地貌和岩性构造等因素造成的。     

"竹林七贤"与焦作山水文化

培训是做好退耕还林工作的重要保障

退耕还林自1999年开展以来,引起了国际社会和国内各界的广泛关注和极大兴趣。作为一项国家投入大、政策性强、操作难度大、群众参与度高的国家特大型生态建设工程,其特点决定了必须加强对退耕还林工程管理人员和技术人员及农民群众的培训工作。搞好退耕还林培训必须加强组织领导、制定长远规划、建立培训体系、完善培训内容、注重信息反馈。     

Professional higher education institutions as organizational actors

Organizational actorhood is a term that has gained prominence in literature about higher education as a way to describe some of the key global change processes with emphasis on organizational accountability, formalization of structure, focus on goal definition and managerialism. At the same time, there is less knowledge about how organizational actorhood is constructed in professional higher education institutions. Based on over 100 interviews and document studies of two case institutions, this article argues that professional higher education institutions show many characteristics of aiming to construct organizational actorhood, while their understanding of accountability is broader than would be in traditional comprehensive universities.
