合理行动理论视角下新生代农民工自主创业意愿及其影响因素研究

以合理行动理论为依据,基于河南280名新生代农民工调研数据,运用结构方程模型对影响新生代农民工自主创业意愿的因素进行了探讨,研究表明,新生代农民工家人意见对其自主创业决策有显著正向影响,同时他们更注重创业启动资金、社会资源等微观元素的积累;目前新生代农民工自主创业模式仍以生存型、机会型为主,但正在逐渐向创造更多财富、成就自身的事业机会的创业模式过渡。     

社会转型背景下青少年自我认同的形成

社会转型是中国千年未有之变局,它不仅从经济、政治方面改变着中国社会,还渗透到日常生活当中,影响着人们的深层观念甚至是人格养成.青少年是从童年到成年的过渡时期,是形成自我认同的关键时期.当今青少年的自我认同呈现“两极性”特点:依赖父母而又蔑视其权威、安于现状而又鲁莽冲动、我行我素而又缺乏创新.要准确把握青少年的特点,需将国家、家庭、学校三个影响青少年自我认同的因素放到社会转型的背景下去理解,找到形成“两极性”的原因,从而帮助青少年形成良好的自我同一性,以更好地适应转型期迅速变迁的社会.     

社会工作专业人才评价指标体系构建初探

建立一套科学合理、适应社会实际需求的人才评价指标体系,是有效开展高校社会工作专业教育改革和国家社会工作者职业资格认证改革的必要前提.本文在明确社会工作专业人才核心特征的基础上,选择知识、能力、素养三个维度,探索构建由8个二级指标、30个三级指标组成的评价指标体系,并对每个三级指标的内涵进行了阐释.     

食品安全问题的治理投入——基于社会成本视角

将食品安全问题进行最优地分析或是在既定社会成本的条件下,最大化其治理结果;或者在侵害结果既定条件下,减少社会成本的投入.食品安全问题的治理成本与治理缺口之间是替代关系,过高的治理成本和过大的治理缺口都不可取,需要达到一个平衡的最优组合来治理食品安全问题.在分析模型中加入损失,即由于食品安全问题导致的受害人遭受到的财产性损失和非财产性损失,治理成本与损失之和形成社会成本.最优治理确定性点应为社会成本最低点.     

碳税的社会福利效应分析

碳税是减少碳排放的一种重要手段。碳税开征与否的一个主要争论在于：征收碳税是否会加大收入差距。在制定碳税政策时,需要考虑碳税实施后对收入分配产生负面影响的可能性,权衡公平目标与二氧化碳减排效果,在体现社会公平的前提下实现节能减排的目的。     

Is doing good good for you? how corporate charitable contributions enhance revenue growth

This study examines the impact of corporate philanthropy growth on sales growth using a large sample of charitable contributions made by U.S. public companies from 1989 through 2000. Applying Granger causality tests, we find that charitable contributions are significantly associated with future revenue, whereas the association between revenue and future contributions is marginally significant at best. We then identify the mechanism underlying our findings. Our results are particularly pronounced for firms that are highly sensitive to consumer perception, where individual consumers are the predominant customers. In addition, we document a positive relationship between contributions and customer satisfaction. Overall, our evidence suggests that corporate philanthropy, under certain circumstances, furthers firms' economic objectives. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

The role of incentives and communication in strategic alliances: an experimental investigation

This paper experimentally examines the determinants of the deviation between potential and realized value creation in strategic alliances. To better understand how decision making in alliances may influence success, we use an experimental design that juxtaposes two important factors that affect alliance members' decisions: economic incentives and communication. The evidence from our experiment sheds light on the relative impact of each, and more importantly, how both factors interact to explain successful outcomes.

How firms respond to being rated

While many rating systems seek to help buyers overcome information asymmetries when making purchasing decisions, we investigate how these ratings also influence the companies being rated. We hypothesize that ratings are particularly likely to spur responses from firms that receive poor ratings, and especially those that face lower‐cost opportunities to improve or that anticipate greater benefits from doing do. We test our hypotheses in the context of corporate environmental ratings that guide investors to select ‘socially responsible,’ and avoid ‘socially irresponsible,’ companies. We examine how several hundred firms responded to corporate environmental ratings issued by a prominent independent social rating agency, and take advantage of an exogenous shock that occurred when the agency expanded the scope of its ratings. Our study is among the first to theorize about the impact of ratings on subsequent performance, and we introduce important contingencies that influence firm response. These theoretical advances inform stakeholder theory, institutional theory, and economic theory. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

组织内社会资本、前瞻性人格与员工沉默行为

以１７０名企业员工为研究对象,采用问卷调查的方法,在社会资本视角下,探讨员工组织内社会资本以及员工前瞻性人格对员工沉默行为的影响机制。研究结果表明,结构型社会资本对默许沉默、漠视沉默和防御沉默行为有显著的负向预测效果;关系型社会资本对默许沉默、漠视沉默和防御沉默三种沉默行为也都有显著的负向预测效果;前瞻性人格分别调节了结构型社会资本与默许沉默、漠视沉默和防御沉默行为之间的关系,并且前瞻性人格对关系型社会资本与默许沉默和防御沉默行为之间的关系也存在显著的调节效应。     

社会资本视域下的社区治理研究

从社会资本视角研究社区治理是一个崭新的探索。社会资本有助于社区归属感建设,有助于公共精神培育,是制度创新的动力源泉．是基层民主运转的重要条件。我国应通过投资共通性社会资本推动社区治理,理顺社区治理体制,完善互惠性制度规范,鼓励和领导社区自组织建设,通过制度建设来推动共通性社会资本的发展。
