Research universities on the ResearchGate social networking site: An examination of institutional differences,research activity level,and social networks formed

As one of the largest active academic social networking sites, ResearchGate (RG) has been utilized by scholars to share publications, seek collaborators, communicate work in progress, and build scholarly reputation. This study collects data from RG users from 61 U.S. research universities at different research activity levels, as categorized by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education, to examine the impact of institutional differences on RG reputational metrics. The results confirm that RG is a research-oriented academic social networking site that closely and realistically mirrors the research activity level of institutions. With an increase in the research activity level of a university, its affiliated RG users tend to have higher RG scores, more publications and citations, and more profile views and followers, while the average number of reads of their publications and followees tend to be lower and fluctuant. In addition, RG users primarily follow others from institutions of a higher research activity level, forming virtual social networks centered around esteemed institutions. The study suggests academic social networks can serve as indicators in evaluation of research activities among research institutions, and such sites can be helpful and credible for acquiring resources, keeping informed about research, and promoting academic influence.     

Jacobi与Gauss—Seidel迭代法求解线性方程组收敛性比较与研究

Jacobi迭代法和Gauss-Seidel迭代法是计算机求解线性方程组常用的两种迭代法,但是这两种方法对方程的收敛性要求很严,大部分方程组均不能用以求解.给出一些基本技巧:对于简单的2阶方程组,若Jacobi法与Gauss-Seidel法均发散,可交换其两行求得其解;对一般性方程,给出一个应用性较强的定理,将方程Ax=b ATAx=ATb,可以用Gauss-Seidel求得任何｜A｜≠0方程组的解.

长江口深水航道船舶超宽交会通航效率分析

为提高长江口深水航道通过能力,减少由船舶交会宽度限制产生的延误,通过分析船舶超宽交会现状,建立仿真逻辑模型,运用Arena进行离散仿真试验。采集长江口深水航道交通流数据,设置不同的船舶交会宽度限制,对大型船舶进出港过程进行仿真,分析不同交会宽度限制对船舶通航的影响,获得被延误船舶比例、被延误船舶数量和延误时间,进而提出提升通过能力的建议。试验表明,采用Arena进行离散仿真能够量化分析超宽交会对通航效率的影响,可为航道拓宽和交通管理提供科学依据。     

质性评价:另一种学生学业评价方法

量化评价是基于自然科学主义观点对学生学业开展评价,它将学生作为统一的整体忽略了个体之间的差异,而基于人文主义的质性评价则注重学生之间的个体差异。质性评价为职业教育中的学业评价提供了另一种好思路,值得研究和推广。     

The effect of television viewing on ethnic prejudice against immigrants: A study in the Italian context

Television viewers construct many different meanings from the programs they watch. Here, we investigated whether ethnic prejudice is differentially influenced by the genre of television programs in their portrayal of ethnic minorities. We also wanted to determine whether a higher educational level reduces ethnic prejudice and television use. A self-reported questionnaire was administered to 401 Italian adults. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the relationships between ethnic prejudice and television program contents and educational level. Viewing Reality and Variety Shows was positively related to ethnic prejudice, News and Public Affairs was negatively related, and Films and TV series had no apparent influence on prejudice. Educational level was negatively related to both ethnic prejudice and watching Reality and Variety Shows, and positively related to viewing News and Public Affairs and Films and TV series programs.
