全日制专业硕士报考吸引力偏低的原因探析

近年来,教育部不断扩大招收以应届本科毕业生为主的全日制专业硕士。全日制专业硕士招生规模的扩大适应了当前我国社会经济发展、院校专业结构调整和大学生就业形势需要。但是大量数据表明,与学术型硕士相比,全日制专业硕士整体报考吸引力偏低,其原因主要在于:学费标准偏高、选拔方式不够合理、培养模式不够成熟、就业前景尚不明朗等。随着全日制专业硕士招生种类和招生单位的不断增加,考生和社会用人单位对这一新生事物的认同能否跟得上其过快的发展速度成为目前亟待解决的问题。     

A new age for child protection--General Comment 13: why it is important, how it was constructed, and what it intends?

Children continue to be subjected to high levels of violence (i.e., physical, psychological and sexual maltreatment) throughout the world. International concern about violence against children has increased significantly during the last decade. A Study on Violence Against Children, encouraged by the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child, conducted under the auspices of the United Nations Secretary General and reported in 2006, has become a rallying call to improve child protection. Child protection practices and systems have been judged to be generally inadequate and, in some cases, destructive. It is widely recognized that business as usual—more of the same—will not do. A General Comment (guide to fulfilling obligations) for Article 19, the central conceptualization of child protection of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, has the potential to promote a worldwide reformulation of child protection priorities, policies, and practices by virtue of the infusion of a child rights approach. It can be a mechanism for framing and promoting the transformational change needed – for a genuine paradigm shift. Here, explication is given for the historical context, rationale, centrality of child rights, process of development, holistic nature, and primary elements of General Comment 13 (GC13): The child's right to freedom from all forms of violence. GC13 embodies and champions a child rights approach to child protection entailing strong support for proactive primary prevention, promotion of good child care, and a commitment to secure the rights and well-being of all children. A child rights-based, comprehensive coordinating framework is recommended for the implementation of GC13.     

旅游景区语言文本建设现状的调查及思考

目前我国很多景区普遍忽视语言文本建设,导致旅游景区语言文本不正确、不规范、不标准等诸多缺憾。抽样调查结果显示,不规范文本分为“不规范标识文本”和“不规范述介文本”两类。两类出错的根本原因在于语言建设中文化因素的干扰,因此基于文化差异的景区文本标准化建设应是解决问题的基础性途径。     

Incidence and situational factors surrounding sexual assault against delinquent youths

This study reports the results of extensive interviews with an intact sample of moderately delinquent adolescents concerning their sexual assault histories. Findings indicate a surprisingly high incidence of victimization among the females interviewed which, the authors suggest, may characterize the larger population of delinquent females. The behavioral-situational contexts of reported victimization experiences are examined for salient commonalities and the following composite rape scenerio can be cast from the data: An unsupervised, 14-year-old female, who has been consuming alcohol or marijuana, is sexually assaulted, following threat and/or force, to the point of penile-vaginal penetration, by an older male friend or acquaintance (who has also consumed alcohol or marijuana) in his home or vehicle or other place where she is inherently unprotected. Some comments are offered concerning the requirements of an effective technology of child rape prevention.     

A reinforcement model of the relationships of supervisors' general communication styles and conflict management styles to task attraction

The conceptual similarities and logical relationships between the constructs of general communication styles and conflict management styles suggested that they should be related in use by supervisors. Based upon reward and punishment concepts of reinforcement that underpin attraction theories, we predicted certain relationships among these styles and the task attraction of supervisors. To test these expectations, 227 questionnaires from subordinates in 12 companies served as the data base. Hypotheses were supported demonstrating substantial relationships between general communication styles and conflict management styles, as well as very substantial relationships between the style constructs and task attraction of supervisors.
