Chapter VI: Costs of Journal Subscriptions to Libraries and Patrons

ABSTRACT

OCLC's ILL PRISM Transfer (IPT) is a method for transferring the data from an electronic interlibrary loan form to OCLC's ILL Review File. This article explains the IPT process and Olivet Nazarene University's IPT program development using HTML forms, C programming, and OCLC formatting. The authors provide their IPT development as freeware to the Internet and library communities.     

A Monte Carlo Study Investigating the Impact of Item Parceling Strategies on Parameter Estimates and Their Standard Errors in CFA

Growth mixture modeling (GMM) has become a more popular statistical method for modeling population heterogeneity in longitudinal data, but the performance characteristics of GMM enumeration indexes in correctly identifying heterogeneous growth trajectories are largely unknown. Few empirical studies have addressed this issue. This study considered both homogeneous (a k = 1 growth trajectory) and heterogeneous (k = 3 different but unobserved growth trajectories) situations, and examined the performance of GMM in correctly identifying the latent trajectories in sample data. Four design conditions were manipulated: (a) sample size, (b) latent trajectory class proportions, (c) shapes of latent growth trajectories, and (d) degree of separation among latent growth trajectories. The findings suggest that, for k = 1 condition (1 homogenous growth trajectory), GMM's performance is reasonable in correctly identifying 1 latent growth trajectory (cf. Type I error control). However, for the k = 3 conditions (3 heterogeneous latent growth trajectories), GMM's general performance is very questionable (cf. Type II error). Different enumeration indexes varied considerably in their respective performances. Comparing the current results with previous GMM studies, the limitations of this study and future GMM enumeration research avenues are all discussed.     

量化调整山西省市县政区的探讨

山西省是全国市县平均规模最小的省级区,调整该省市县政区,可以克服山西省市县政区规模偏小的弊病.通过运用统计学方法对现存山西省现有市县政区进行分析、对比,采用规范量化市县政区人口数量和面积规模的具体指标来撤并市县政区,将107个市县政区调整为63个,并将11个地级区调整为9个.     

Adjustment Disorder: a new way of conceptualizing the overtraining syndrome

It is proposed that an athlete's overtrained state is more perceptible in its etiology, diagnosis, treatment and prevention if considered from the context of a biopsychosocial disorder of adjustment. By shifting focus from a limited notion of excessive training loads and inadequate recovery schedules onto a comprehensive model of maladjustment, the full scope of the phenomenon becomes clearer. Specifically, the overtrained state is reconceptualized as an Adjustment Disorder and thus should be treated from the perspective of this diagnosis. Adjustment Disorder is viewed as a response to an identifiable stressor or stressors that results in clinically significant symptoms, and ‘can be triggered by a stressor of any severity and may involve a wide range of possible symptoms’ (DSM-IV-TR, 2000, p. 682). A rationale for the adoption of this definition is proposed. Included in this rationale is a comprehensive model of maladjustment with an overview of relevant subtypes to clarify the complex interaction of variables involved in the etiology, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of the athlete's maladjusted state.     

少儿跳水运动员心理素质培养方法初探

少儿蔬水运动员的心理素质培养训练和身体,技术素质训练一样,是科学训练的三大重要要素之一。从某种意义上说,运动员良好的心理素质是发挥身体能力和技术水平的最重要的保证。在El常的教学训练中,对少儿跳水运动员成功的心理训练对于运动员较快地掌握动作技巧,发挥运动员的最大潜能,起着至关重要的作用。本文从自己在业余体校执教跳水训练多年的隶身经历中,对少儿运动员心理素质培养的点滴经验进行总结。遗就一个成功的跳水运动人才,就必须先从早期的少儿跳水运动员选材开始,在众多热爱运动的孩子中,发掘出体格健美．性格稳定,接受和反应能力强,意志坚定．能吃苦的苗予,结合少年儿童的生理特征,从小就进行自信心,坚强意志,正能量控制等有效的心理训练和培养。     

Intervening to improve the transfer to secondary school

Evaluation data are reported on a Transfer Support Team (TST) intervention which supports pupils identified as vulnerable during secondary school transfer. Information about school concerns and broader adjustment measures were collected from TST supported pupils on three occasions and from a “typical benchmark group” on two occasions. Factors known to confer additional vulnerability around school transfer were also analysed: English as an additional language, free school meals eligibility and special educational needs. Findings indicate that this relatively brief transfer support programme impacts positively on targeted pupils’ levels of school concerns and illustrates the importance of differentiated monitoring of intervention outcomes.     

我国居民收入分配不公的政策成因及调整路径

收入分配是涉及每个人切身利益的敏感问题.改革开放以来,我国收入分配制度的改革和实践是富有成效的,打破平均主义,调动了积极性和创造性.但同时,我们也应看到,随着我国经济的高速增长,居民收入分配的差距也在日益扩大,具体表现为城乡之间、地区之间、行业之间的差距.本文试从国家政策角度去探讨居民收入分配差距拉大的原因并提出调整的路径.     

论医生的高度注意义务

医生职业关乎患者的生命与健康,所以必然决定医生在执业时须对患者负有不同于对一般人的高度注意义务。通过对医生执业的高度注意义务的内涵、原则、基本内容以及医生违反高度注意义务的判断标准的论述,为正确规范医患关系,公平、合理地解决医患纠纷提供参考,从而消除医患之间的信任危机,构建和谐融洽的医患关系。     

论雇佣关系及其法律调整模式

如何界定雇佣关系(又称雇用关系),法律上没有明确的规定。由于我国现阶段多种经济成分并存,用工关系十分复杂,各种损害赔偿纠纷不断出现,加上相应的法律法规不完善,审判实践中对这类纠纷的处理存在着争议。本文对雇佣关系的界定、完善雇佣关系法律调整模式等方面进行了相关研究。     

学校布局调整背景下乡村文化传承的困境分析

自20世纪90年代以来,我国开始着手进行乡村学校布局调整工作,其在优化农村教育资源以及促进城乡教育均衡发展等方面起到重要作用,但也引发了一些新的问题.从教育人类学的视角来看,它使乡村文化面临着传承的困境,不仅迫使乡村文化的学习主体——乡村儿童和少年“不在场”,也在一定程度上加剧了学校教育与其他教育系统间的疏离.这启示我们在制定乡村教育政策时,要积极寻求各方专家以及事件直接相关者的意见,处理好乡村文化传承问题以及学校教育与社会和家庭教育间的关系,在发挥政策最大优势的同时,尽量减少政策带来的消极影响.
