Bridging ties and the role of research and start-up experience on the early growth of Dutch academic spin-offs

Bridging ties are important for obtaining new information. However, when entrepreneurs try to bridge between two networks, they may face problems due to the variety of knowledge among individuals in both networks. In this paper, we argue that specific human capital is essential for interpreting new information and coordinating action when bridging between networks. In a sample of 70 Dutch academic spin-offs, our findings show that specific human capital increases the relative impact of bridging ties on early spin-off growth. This paper sheds light on the value of bridging ties for entrepreneurs and provides implications for practitioners.     

网络嵌入、集聚模仿与大学衍生企业知识溢出——基于中国三大海洋工程装备制造业集群的实证研究

引入新网络特征——空间集聚结构发现,我国企业集群知识溢出存在空间模仿效应。为此,利用空间计量模型修正社会网络分析结果,考察大学衍生企业网络嵌入演进对企业集群知识溢出的真实影响。结果表明,产业关联、信任、关系联结规模和中介中心度有助于提高企业集群知识溢出水平,知识认同度和互惠程度对知识溢出的影响存在最优均衡;网络嵌入对知识溢出的影响存在明显的空间模仿效应,在连续性知识空间更多表现为邻近效应,在间断性知识空间则表现为异质效应,集群内空间模仿效应强于集群间;在控制空间效应后,仅在波纹状集聚结构的环渤海集群存在结构洞与知识溢出的负向关联。基于上述结果,结合我国国情提出海洋装备集群未来发展政策及启示。     

国外遗产研究博士生培养的特征及启示——以美国阿肯色州立大学为例

尽管目前有关世界遗产的相关研究比较多,但是在高层次的博士生培养方面的研究,却几乎是一个空白。而我国在遗产相关专业或方向的博士生培养方面,基本上还处于刚刚起步的阶段,大多数高校或科研机构存在着指导教师(学术背景)单一、过分追求博士生发表学术论文的篇数、博士生的研究成果欠缺原创性等弊端。为了填补这一研究空白和解决这些问题,笔者希望通过详细地介绍美国阿肯色州立大学遗产研究博士项目的主要过程,让我国的遗产相关研究者们更加清楚、明晰地了解国外遗产研究专业或方向高层次教育的动态,并对国内高校及科研机构的遗产研究专业或方向的博士生培养提出了建设性的意见。     

Capital market efficiency and the relationship between equity returns, interest rates, and monetary aggregates in Australia

This paper examines the efficiency with which the Australian share market incorporates new information relating to interest rates and the monetary aggregates into share prices. It finds a strong relationship between medium term government security yields and equity returns although little relationship could be found between unanticipated changes in the monetary aggregates and share returns. Furthermore, the interest rate relationship involved long lags and suggests inefficiency in stock market pricing in Australia.     

Industrial buying behavior: A need for an integrative approach

In recent years many conceptual and methodological developments have contributed to our understanding of industrial organizations as consumers. Yet there is still a lack of purpose and no sense of direction to much of the research in the area of industrial marketing/organizational buying. This paper develops a framework for approaching organizational buying research in a more conceptually rigorous and methodologically sound fashion. Within the proposed framework current problems in the area are discussed and needed research is highlighted.     

Estimating temporal trends in preferences measured by graded paired comparisons

A sizable marketing research literature on preference measurement, prediction, and explanation has thus far been more concerned with point estimates of preference than with consistent changes over time. Such temporal trends can be estimated using data collected from graded paired comparisons. An appropriate technique for deriving individual and group trend parameters is first described and then illustrated using data from an experiment dealing with aesthetic preferences. Suggestions are offered concerning its advantages and limitations for applications in marketing.     

Prices of deep discount bonds and the Revenue Act of 1978: An evaluation of market response

This article explores the market response of deep discount corporate bonds to the reduction in the capital gains tax rate incorporated into the Revenue Act of 1978. Such tax change should have increased the desirability of assets acquired for capital gains potential, such as deep discount bonds. Examining a time series of prices and returns for a sample of deep discount corporate bonds and a control group of comparable duration and credit risk corporate bonds selling at or near par did indeed provide evidence of a market price reaction. Moreover, the price changes for the deep discount bonds occurred well in advance of the implementation of the tax change.

高校社会问题、社会工作视角及其教学模式

从12世纪起,西方近代意义上的大学（高校）已经走过了近千年的发展历程,为人类知识的创造、知识的传承和应用做出了巨大的贡献。随着社会发展与变迁,大学也被卷入了世俗化、社会化的行业,使得高校不得不面临繁杂交织的社会问题。作为高校主体之一的大学生,被各种心理问题、偏差行为困扰,高校大学生自然成为以青年社会工作为内容的学校社会工作教学对象,需要用灵活的、具有亲和力的社会工作方式与教学模式进行关注和介入。
