Adolescent Decision-Making Processes Regarding University Entry: A model incorporating cultural orientation,motivation and occupational variables

This study attempts to provide a new perspective on current shifts in knowledge production through analysing the relationship between research and education. The study, based on interviews and questionnaires, focuses on the interaction within applied research centres with a close industry cooperation. The results suggest that the interaction between research and education benefits from a collaborative environment, since researchers hold positive attitudes towards integrating research, education and collaboration, and students are given the opportunity to work within applied research projects. The findings are discussed in terms of researchers’ ability to handle their scholarly tasks of research, teaching, and collaboration, and the importance for acknowledging research collaborations from both research and teaching perspectives.     

‘Settling in’

Abstract

This study examined the ‘settling in’ behaviour of newly enrolled children who entered an established preschool classroom. Settling in can cause emotional distress and behavioural problems in children. Thus, it is important to document the ways in which young children successfully adjust. The behaviours of the ‘new’ children were tracked across the school year and compared with ‘old children’, or those previously enrolled. Results indicated that new children did not differ from old children in terms of unengaged behaviour. While all children's socially interactive behaviour and social fantasy increased across the school year, the new children engaged in lower levels of these behaviours. Further, the signals they used to initiate social interaction were less sophisticated than those used by established children. Results are discussed in terms of the role of familiarity in supporting children's exhibition of competence. Implications for practice and policy are discussed.     

一种改进的粒子群优化算法

为了克服传统粒子群算法（Pso）的早熟和局部最优问题,通过分析基于惯性权重的粒子群优化在粒子寻优过程中的可行性,提出了一种变惯性权重的改进PSo算法,并对经典的测试函数进行TN试。实验结果证明,与传统PSO算法以及基于惯性权重的PSO相比,改进算法的寻优效果较好,全局搜索能力有显著提高,并能有效地避免早熟收敛问题。     

澳大利亚对华政策调整——对比分析2009及2013澳大利亚国防白皮书

2013年5月,澳大利亚公布了新的国防白皮书,其中最引人注目的是明确表示不再将中国视为"威胁",欢迎中国崛起。这与2009年澳大利亚国防白皮书形成鲜明对比,当时澳大利亚认为中国崛起可能构成对地区和平与安全的潜在威胁。澳大利亚对华政策的调整原因颇多,包括澳大利亚经济发展需要中国市场的支持、澳本国战略利益需要、澳民众对中国发展的认可,以及澳政府对过去、当前及未来外交实践的再反思和评估。
