Assessing Voluntary Programs to Improve Environmental Quality

The last decade has seen a dramatic increase in the use of voluntaryapproaches (VAs) to environmental protection, which has spurned agrowing literature on the relative merits of voluntary vs. mandatoryapproaches. This paper draws on that literature to discuss both thetheoretical and empirical issues that arise in the evaluation orassessment of a particular VA. We consider both the environmentaleffectiveness and the efficiency of this policy approach. Our aim is toaid policymakers in evaluating a specific program or in thinking aboutthe use and design of a VA. We identify some key features that arelikely to increase both the effectiveness and the efficiency of VAs.

论信用概念的本质内涵与信用建设的基本途径

在时下的信用问题研究背景中,经济学一家独语的状况非常明显;即便是在伦理学研究背景下,信用也仅被作为一个关键概念局限于经济伦理领域。但是,要建立一个科学的社会信用制度体系,信用就应该首先被还原出它的作为一个一般伦理学概念的内涵,即它的本质内涵。当代的中国信用建设,仅仅局限于经济学或经济伦理领域来讨论具体的制度建构,无疑要走很多弯路。信用这个概念,正如诚信概念一样,不仅存在于人的经济活动领域,也存在于人的其他重大活动领域。在这些人的种种活动领域中广泛存在的信用概念是紧密联系和互动的,并且存在一定的同步性需求,这种需求的理论化,就是信用概念在一般伦理学语境下的充分讨论。     

The relation among self-efficacy,learning approaches,and academic performance: an exploratory study

Self-efficacy influences students’ activities, effort and persistence, and it can help predict their motivation and academic performance. This study attempts to investigate the relationship between self-efficacy, preferred learning methods, and academic performance under different learning methods in a unique hospitality course setting. The results indicate that hospitality management students prefer a “learn by doing” approach instead of computer-based learning and lecturing. This study concludes that self-efficacy affects the academic performance in both lecturing and practical learning in hospitality education. However, students’ preference in terms of learning methods does not influence their academic performance. Emphasizing “learn by doing” in the hospitality higher education curriculum is recommended in addition to recruiting faculty members with extensive industry experience. Conversely, it is recommended that faculty find the means to increase students’ self-efficacy when adopting different teaching approaches.
