大学生人文素质教育途径探索

提升大学生的人文素质是高等院校在学生培养中面对的一个重要问题。调查发现,大学生的人文素质现状令人担忧。应通过提高大学生对人文素质教育重要性的认识,合理组织人文素质教育内容,利用多环节全面渗透人文教育,精心组织人文教育选题等有效途径提升大学生的人文素质。     

Using a competency approach to understand host-country national managers in Asia

This study empirically explored host-country nationals (HCNs) in multinational enterprises (MNEs) using a competency approach. Participants consisted of 500 managers working for a leading Japanese retail MNE, with 100 each from Japan, China, Hong Kong, Malaysia and Thailand. The study highlighted three competency variables for 12 skills of those managers: (1) the level of competency demands, (2) the level of developed competencies and (3) the level of competency improvement needs as assessed by the difference between the levels of developed competencies and the levels of corresponding competency demands. Three conclusions were drawn: First, relationship skills are the most demanded and developed competency of HCN managers in Asia, while their levels tend to vary with Asian countries. Second, goal-setting skills are also very important competency demands but are insufficiently developed by HCN managers. Therefore, HCN managers need to improve their goal-setting skills to a great degree as a top priority. Third, interpersonal and behavioral competency areas of the 12 skills are more important demands for HCN managers than analytical and perceptual competency areas. Based on the empirical evidence obtained from this study, theoretical and practical implications were discussed.

环境规制下全要素生产率逆转拐点的空间效应*——基于省际工业面板数据的验证

工业是污染排放和能源消耗的主体,环境全要素生产率受环境规制影响,进而对工业的可持续增长有一定制约。本文采用2001-2012年中国各省份（西藏除外）工业行业的面板数据,基于Malmquist Luenberger生产率指数,在考虑环境污染的情况下测算了我国各地区工业行业的环境全要素生产率,避免了全要素生产率高估的问题;并构建空间计量模型,考虑空间相关性和异质性的影响,在控制了资本劳动投入比、地区经济发展水平、企业规模、所有制结构、外资结构等变量因素影响的基础上,实证检验了环境规制与全要素生产率的关系。实证结果表明：东部、中部和西部三大区域环境规制的强度和工业行业的环境全要素生产率之间呈现“U”型关系。随着环境规制强度不断增强,全要素生产率先降后升,而且东部地区要早于中部、西部地区达到拐点。在达到拐点以后,东部地区的全要素生产率对环境规制变动的反应要强于中、西部地区,东部地区的边际全要素生产率更高。     

政府资助、现金持有与企业研发平滑研究

当前,我国政府对企业的研发资助快速增加,而在动态经济环境中,更应关注研发活动均衡健康的长期发展（研发平滑）而非短期增长变动。从政府资助视角对企业研发平滑进行重新审视,运用2007-2012年中国工业上市公司数据,采用系统GMM计量方法,对政府资助、现金持有与企业研发平滑进行了综合探析。结果发现：①我国工业上市公司普遍存在通过现金持有管理来平滑研发支出的现象;②当期政府资助对企业研发有促进作用,而持续的政府资助则会间接影响企业现金持有政策,该调节机制最终会对企业研发活动产生平滑作用。     

劳动收入份额、城乡收入差距与中国居民消费

本文建立了一个包含人力资本人口分组的新古典经济增长模型,从理论上分析了劳动收入份额、收入差距与总消费三者之间的关系,然后使用1990—2008年的省际面板数据,采用动态GMM估计方法,重点检验国民收入分配结构、城乡居民收入差距以及它们的交互作用对中国居民消费率的影响,揭示了中国消费率偏低的动态形成机制。研究发现,劳动收入份额和城乡收入差距是居民消费增长缓慢最根本的原因;城市化水平、消费习惯形成和人口年龄结构对居民消费率也有重要的潜在影响;提高劳动要素份额具有缩小城乡收入差距的效应。尽管使用了不同的识别方法与计量技术并控制了其他潜在影响居民消费率的各种因素,本文的结果依然基本稳健。

东道国特征与中国对外直接投资的实证研究

本文使用2000～2007年中国对外直接投资的面板数据,采用GMM估计方法,检验中国对外直接投资区位分布的影响因素,揭示中国对外直接投资的动态效应.研究发现:东道国市场规模对中国在东道国的投资具有显著的负影响,而东道国工资水平的影响并不显著;以出口度量的双边贸易联系及双边汇率对中国在东道国的投资具有显著的正影响;从动态来看,前期投资对当期投资的影响并不显著,表明中国对东道国的直接投资缺乏连续性.基于实证研究结果,本文提出了促进中国对外直接投资的相关政策建议.     

“探究式教法”在国际集装箱运输交接方式讲解中的应用

对高职院校的课堂教学如何由以教师为主的传统授课制转变为以学生为主的探究式学习．进行了有益的尝试。在学习《国际货运代理》中的国际集装箱运输交接方式对,运用探究式教法,辅之以“连线”,变繁杂的条款为形象的图解。变理论讲授为学生探究。从而实现了课堂教学由教师为主到以学生为主的转变。     

The housing bubble and a new approach to accounting for housing in a CPI

Over the course of the recent house price bubble in the United States, the price of homes rose rapidly from 1999 Q4 to 2005 Q4 (11.3% annually as measured by the Case-Shiller index, and 8.4% annually as measured by the Federal Housing Financing Agency) but slowly as measured by owner equivalent rents (3.4%), so measured core inflation remained relatively docile during this period, since only rents are used to measure inflation for housing services in the United States. Over the last several decades, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) has experimented with both rental equivalence and user cost approaches for accounting for owner occupied housing (OOH) services in the CPI. We explain the basics of these approaches, and outline the BLS experiences with using them. This assessment leads us to conclude that the time has come to try a new approach: the opportunity cost approach. We argue this approach has advantages over both the conventional rental equivalence and user cost approaches, though it embeds components of the measures for both those approaches and builds solidly on the research of Verbrugge and others at the BLS. Also, we take up empirical issues that must be faced regardless of which of the approaches discussed is adopted. We explain how the repeat-sales and various hedonic regression methods can be placed in a common framework, thereby facilitating understanding of the properties of and the tradeoffs between the methods. We also consider measurement complications that arise because the land and structure components of properties depreciate at different rates.
