DNA双股螺旋结构与迅猛发展的法庭科学——纪念人类DNA双股螺旋结构发现50周年

自1953年Watson和Crick发表DNA双股螺旋结构,它为人类生命科学,尤其是法庭科学的发展带来了历史性的变化。法庭科学从个体识别和亲子鉴定的排除到认定,经历了DNA指纹图、AMP-FLP及SNP的3个阶段。同时线粒体DNA的应用也在广泛开展。另外数据库的建设和完善成为法庭科学的发展方向。总之,DNA双股螺旋结构对法庭科学革命性变化起了决定性的作用。     

Crime,social disorganization,and social structure: A research note on the use of interurban ecological models

The social disorganization perspective, as set forth by Clifford Shaw and Henry McKay, has enjoyed renewed interest in criminological explanations of crime and delinquency. This paper extends this perspective beyond the traditional intraurban focus of the neighborhood to a more encompassing interurban model, using 682 SMSA counties. The results using these counties were generally consistent with neighborhood studies, demonstrating the robustness of the social disorganization model.     

工具理性与中国传统文化的现代化

构成西方现代性主要内涵的工具理性,促发了科学与技术的繁荣和昌盛。当前中国现代化最主要的也是最急需的就是科学与技术的大发展,这一点在文化层面上就表现为工具理性的缺失和弘扬,中国传统文化的现代化必须工具理性化。     

Weapons used by juveniles and adult offenders in U.S. parricide cases

In recent decades, attention has focused on juveniles who kill their parents. Research has indicated that increases in juvenile homicide have been associated with the availability of firearms, but little is known about the weapons juveniles use to kill their parents and whether their weapon usage is different from that of adult children who kill their parents. This article uses Supplementary Homicide Report data for the 24-year period 1976 to 1999 to investigate weapons selected by parricide offenders to kill biological mothers and fathers. Significant differences were found in the weapons used in matricide and patricide incidents and in the weapons selected by juvenile and adult offenders. A comparison with an earlier study by Heide revealed that weapon usage in parricide events is stable. Differences found in both studies between weapons used to kill parents and offender age are consistent with a physical strength hypothesis proposed by Heide in 1993.     

浅论马丁·布伯的关系哲学——兼谈如何面对“文化冲突”

马丁·布伯在《我与你》中提出了人生与世界具有两重性：一是“为我们所用的世界”．一是“我们与之相遇的世界”．他用“我-它”公武称谓前者．用“我-你”公武称谓后者。他强调“我-你”关系的直接性、相互性和之间、相遇．并从“我-你”关系出发．重新去认知和理解世界。布怕的思想对于冷战后不同文化间越演越烈的冲突来说．仍有不可低估的现实意义。     

Parricide: an empirical analysis of 24 years of U.S. data

Empirical analysis of homicides in which children have killed parents has been limited. The most comprehensive statistical analysis involving parents as victims was undertaken by Heide and used Supplementary Homicide Report (SHR) data for the 10-year period 1977 to 1986. This article provides an updated examination of characteristics of victims, offenders, and offenses in parricide incidents using SHR data for the 24-year period 1976 to 1999. The analysis proceeds in two stages. First, offense (homicide circumstances), victim (age, race), and offender (age, race, sex) correlates are reported. Second, juvenile involvement in incidents in which parents were killed is examined and a determination is made whether changes in youth involvement in parricide offenses are discernible over the 24-year period. The article concludes with a comparison of findings that emerged from 24 years of data with those from the earlier 10-year period and the discussion of the significance of these findings.     

大学生关于同性恋群体态度的实证研究

研究旨在探讨大学生关于同性恋群体外显态度与内隐态度之间的联系与差异,为进一步改善同性恋生存现状奠定理论基础。研究采用问卷调查法对257名大学生进行外显态度的调查,采用内隐联想测验对内隐态度进行测验。结果显示大学生对于同性恋群体的态度在外显态度上表现得更为接纳,而在内隐态度方面人们较为排斥,即实际上人们对于这一群体仍持有负性态度。
