管理者在塑造高绩效的员工中的职责

管理者常常会认为员工工作良好。当然会有一两名员工表现不够好，但是员工总体上表现优良。工作差的员工在组织中待不久，因为管理者会在他们影响其他员工之前，迅速让他们离开组织。留在组织中的员工为了应得的薪水而付出相应的努力。他们可靠而有见识，值得信赖，而且没有怨言地进行工作，但是他们的业绩是否超出管理者的期望了呢？事实并非如此。

A child health production function estimated from longitudinal data. Cebu Study Team

Collaborating researchers used a multi equation model to analyze 3080 mother-infant pairs living on the island of Cebu in the central Philippines and to estimate a child health production function. The econometric methods used eliminated obstacles such as heterogeneity and endogeneity of significant explanatory factors. They also maximized the longitudinal quality of the data. The results showed that morbidity in 1 period reduced infant weight in following periods. For example, diarrhea and febrile respiratory infection reduced growth in the time period following the illnesses. Further effects of some contributing factors were great near birth not diminished with age. For example, breast feeding promoted growth and protected against infection, especially diarrhea and febrile respiratory infection, more substantially near birth than it did later. Further, in urban areas, preventive health care positively affected growth independently of its indirect influence on reducing respiratory infection. Yet it had little effect on diarrhea. Diarrhea had a strong adverse effect on growth. Exposure of the infant to enteric pathogens had the greatest influence on production of diarrhea. In urban areas, exposure included water supply contamination, exposure to feces, a more pathogenic diet, and community crowding. In rural areas, however, exposure included community crowding and increased rainfall which presumably washed feces into the water supply. Household crowding in both urban and rural areas and irritation from smoke in urban areas only tended to bring about febrile respiratory infection.     

东道国政府政策对美国跨国投资决策的影响

1、引言 外国直接投资(FDI)在世界经济中正在起着不断增加的作用。所有贸易的一半和世界国内生产总值的五分之一是属于跨国公司的(鲁格曼,1988)。美国基地的跨国公司的附属公司的销售额是美国出口额的一倍多。从美国基地的企业向国外附属公司的出口约占美国出口总额的三分之一。再者,尽管美国出口中由跨国公司作的占着很大的份额,由美国公司拥有大多数股权和国外附属公司在外国的货品的销售额是由跨国公司进行的美国出口     

自然和社会—苏联地理学界持续不断的争论

从十九世纪起人类社会与自然环境的相互关系就一直是苏联地理学界的主要论题。在苏维埃时代,这个问题就已经成为意识形态领域激烈争论的中心问题。近年来,地理学的空间侧面比以往受到了更多的重视,然而环境问题依然是苏联地理学界讨论最多的问题之一,也是许多著述和文章的主题。近十年来,苏联地理学具有显著发展,体现在一些重要的地理学家对环境问题的态度有所改变,已经试图在社会与自然环境的关系方面创立一种新的方法。
