“居家养老”新型养老模式研究

随着社会的进步,传统家庭养老模式已不能适应人口老龄化社会的现实需要。西方发达国家建立在高福利基础上的完全社会化养老模式也不适合我国现实国情。居家养老模式把家庭养老和社会养老有机结合起来,能够做到扬长避短,优势互补。中国政府应把居家养老作为社会养老体系建设的重要组成部分,统一规划,制定扶持政策,积极培育专业化水平的服务人才队伍。     

论新型居家养老模式的构建

养老问题日益严重,如何使老年人安享晚年,各地出台了许多政策试图找到解决问题的途径,如南京政府出台新规,辽宁部分地区的托老所的建立等。本文结合这些新的举措,对新型居家养老模式的建立进行分析,以期推进养老问题的解决。     

中国城市居家养老模式探析

进入新世纪以来,我国老龄化问题日趋严峻,也已成为经济发展、社会进步、构建和谐社会过程中不得不解决的问题。应运而生的居家养老已成为学界、社会和百姓的关注热点,并正在成为解决养老问题的重要途径。当前,由于资金缺口大、且资金来源单一,服务设施不完善,专业人才短缺、没有完善的评估机制以及传统家庭养老的影响等问题,已经阻碍居家养老模式的运行。政府部门应该加大宣传力度,促进传统养老观念转变;加大政策支持力度,解决资金来源,引进专业人才,提高待遇水平,增强服务人员的能力;将服务对象分类管理,做到服务项目多样化、个性化。通过充分动员社会一切可利用资源,推动我国居家养老事业的可持续发展。

The depiction of senior citizens in magazine advertisements: A content analysis

This study utilized a content analysis of magazine advertisements to measure the frequency that senior citizens were used as models in the advertisements and the extent to which they were presented in a desirable or undersirable light, relative to younger persons. A sample of consumer magazines was examined, in order to assess hypotheses related to the depiction of seniors by advertisers. The research results were analyzed and conclusions drawn which can be of potential value to marketers whose goods and services have potential appeal to older consumers.Robin T.

Evaluation of age‐related labels by senior citizens

The age‐related labels third age, elderly, 50+, senior, and retired were evaluated by a 40+ sample. Results of a qualitative and quantitative study showed that the labels third age and elderly evoked predominantly negative associations, and the evaluations of the latter three age‐related labels were generally positive. Cognitive age did not appear to add explanatory power, but group membership did (being retired or not, perceiving oneself as a senior or not). Moreover, a significant interaction effect between group membership and age emerged. When people did not belong or did not perceive themselves to belong to a given age group, the evaluation of the related label became more negative when the respondents approached the age to be eligible for group membership. After becoming or accepting to become part of the group, evaluations of the label increased again. On the basis of these results, an alternative‐stage model is proposed: status irrelevance, status rejection, status acceptance, and status championship. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Transnational corporations: international citizens or new sovereigns?

The expanding public roles of transnational corporations in private foreign aid, in self-regulation and private certification of business practices, not to mention helping shape public policy, can be viewed as evidence of corporate citizenship and social responsibility or as a threat to democratic decision making and national sovereignty. Dennis A Rondinelli suggests that new systems of countervailing power may be needed to encourage further corporate citizenship while preventing potential abuses of political and economic power.     

The relationship between strategic type and new service development competence: a study of Chinese knowledge intensive business services

Using the strategic orientation concept of Miles and Snow, the present study aims to test if differences in levels of new service development (NSD) competence exist between prospectors, analyzers, defenders, and reactors. Results from 192 Chinese knowledge intensive business service firms indicate that NSD competence varies in the relation to the firm’s strategic orientation. Prospectors and defenders have higher NSD competence than analyzers. Reactors have lower new service development competence than prospectors, defenders, and analyzers.     

Sensor-based entrepreneurship: A framework for developing new products and services

As the Internet of Things (IoT) begins to dominate the technology landscape, there will be new products and services that will become technically and financially feasible. Internet technologies and advancements in social interaction tools have led to an increase in the use of the crowd as a provider of business solutions. Yet, we have seen a mere fraction of the possibilities of crowdsourcing technologies. This is because most of the development, discussion, and research around crowdsourcing has focused on active-input crowdsourcing. However, the real transformative pressure will come from passive sources of data generated primarily by developing and growing sensor technologies. This next generation of crowdsourcing will be a game changer for entrepreneurial opportunities. As crowdsourcing systems proliferate, more input will be acquired from sensors, artificial intelligence, bots, and other devices. As a result of this explosion, the variety of product and service opportunities will swell as entrepreneurs become more aware of technologies merging—such as the combination of crowdsourcing, sensors, and big data into a new type of entrepreneurship: sensor-based entrepreneurship. The purpose of this research is to contribute by (1) clarifying the next generation of crowdsourcing and (2) developing and presenting a framework to help sensor-based entrepreneurs plan, develop, and map their new products and services.     

Development of new technology-based services

In an environment where customers can hardly describe new technology-based services (TBSs) of the future and technological engineers are unlikely to understand how a new technology can work for new services, a guideline to generate ideas for TBS can be utilized to achieve successful service innovation. Thus, this paper aims to develop an ideation framework for TBS. Two methods – the technology tree and the function analysis systems technique – are employed to identify core utilities expected from a new technology. Then a new method, the service encounter value matrix, which is based on morphology analysis and is used for generating potential service ideas, is suggested. Finally, these ideas are evaluated, and only those that are of a high priority according to customers’ expectations of future society are selected. In this study, the framework is applied to telecommunication technology, which is timely and useful for designing future services.     

Pricing as a driver of profitable growth: An agenda for CEOs and senior executives

Most CEOs take a narrow, tactical view of pricing and delegate pricing to lower levels of the organization. This myopic approach is costly, as it prevents companies from realizing their potential. In the hands of the best-run companies, pricing is not a battlefield tactic to win a particular competitive skirmish but a transformative long-term strategy for sustained competitive advantage. We present an agenda of six specific action items that defines how to unlock the power of pricing. CEOs and senior executives, our research suggests, should not set prices, but instead, they should create the context, the capabilities, the behaviors, the infrastructure, and the aspirations that enable their organization to excel in pricing.
