Forensic Application of Analytical Mechanics in Fatal Fall From a Height

Fatal fall from a height initiated with a swinging motion on the sagittal plane of the victim's body is examined. Method of analytical mechanics is adopted to establish the functional relations between the swinging angle of the body and the force needed to sustain the body until release, and the amount of the horizontal displacement that would occur after release. The analysis is applied to support an expert opinion presented in a criminal court in which two accused were convicted of murder for dropping a female victim from a bridge. The results indicate that it is unlikely for the body to locate as recorded by the police investigation report in the case. This study demonstrates that a straightforward mechanical analysis can be utilized to examine uncommon falling scenarios.     

户外运动与青少年全面发展

国家与国家前途与未来的竞争,是综合国力的竞争,是人的竞争,从一定意义上讲也是青少年一代综合素质的竞争。本文认为,有组织、有计划地在青少年群体中推广在户外环境中开展的以集体实践活动为主要形式,以包括定向越野、郊游、野外露营、野外生存能力训练、野外物种及自然知识的学习考察、户外社会实践和各类体能拓展为主要内容的青少年户外运动,对提高青少年综合素质、促进青少年全面发展具有重要的战略意义。     

完善我国宪法监督制度之构想

设立宪法法院负责宪法监督工作是一种最切合实际的完善我国宪法监督制度的方案。除在中央设立宪法法院外,可在地方设立巡回宪法法院。宪法法院应当具有相对独立性。为保证宪法法院有效行使其宪法监督职能,必须赋予其事前审查权、宪法解释权等职权。宪法监督程序须由相应的主体提起。

IDENTIFYING THE PSYCHOLOGICAL FACTORS THAT MEDIATE THE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN PARENTING PRACTICES AND DELINQUENCY*

Past research has largely ignored the developmental changes within the child that account for the association between parenting and risk for delinquency. We used structural equation modeling and data from a longitudinal study of several hundred African‐American families to test the contentions of various theories regarding the sociocognitive and emotional factors that mediate the impact of parental behavior on a youth's risk for delinquency. Our findings largely supported the theories. The impact of monitoring/discipline was indirect through low self‐control and acceptance of deviant norms, whereas the effect of hostility/ rejection was indirect through low self‐control, hostile view of relationships, and acceptance of deviant norms. These two dimensions of parenting were no longer related either to affiliation with deviant peers or to conduct problems once the effects of these psychological characteristics were taken into account; the impact of these parenting practices was completely mediated by these four cognitive/affective variables. Contrary to expectation, however, these psychological factors did not mediate any of the relationship between caretaker involvement in antisocial behavior and child conduct problems.     

赋予发债权与地方政府行政运行现状的关系

是否开禁地方债的关键在于地方政府是否具有与之相匹配的“银质信用”,而这又与地方政府的运行有密切关系。文章在分析了转型期我国地方政府行政运行的状况后,认为在近期赋予地方政府发债权的条件和时机尚不成熟。     

试述早期英格兰国王司法管辖权的扩张

早期英格兰国王司法管辖权的扩张是我们进一步了解早期英格兰国王法院体系建立、法律职业阶层兴起乃至普通法形成的前提和基础。本文将早期英格兰国王司法管辖权的扩张首先放进中世纪封建主义的框架进行分析,得出其"分散性"、"多元性"的根源所在。进而通过对英格兰盎格鲁—撒克逊时期、诺曼王朝时期和亨利二世时期的历史描述,具体指明国王司法管辖权扩张的理论基础、具体措施及其意义。
