Authors: Kelley Marjorie M , Powell Tia , Camara Djibril , Shah Neha , Norton Jenna M , Deitelzweig Chelsea , Vaidy Nivedha , Hsiao Chun-Ju , Wang Jing , Bierman Arlene S
Published: February 2023

BACKGROUND

People living with multiple chronic conditions (MCCs) face substantial challenges in planning and coordinating increasingly complex care. Family caregivers provide important assistance for people with MCCs but lack sufficient support. Caregiver apps have the potential to help by enhancing care coordination and planning among the health care team, including patients, caregivers, and clinicians.

OBJECTIVE

We aim to conduct a scoping review to assess the evidence on the development and use of caregiver apps that support care planning and coordination, as well as to identify key factors (ie, needs, barriers, and facilitators) related to their use and desired caregiver app functionalities.

METHODS

Papers intersecting 2 major domains, mobile health (mHealth) apps and caregivers, that were in English and published from 2015 to 2021 were included in the initial search from 6 databases and gray literature and ancestry searches. As per JBI (Joanna Briggs Institute) Scoping Review guidelines and PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews), 2 authors independently screened full texts with disagreements resolved by a third author. Working in pairs, the authors extracted data using a pilot-tested JBI extraction table and compared results for consensus.

RESULTS

We identified 34 papers representing 25 individual studies, including 18 (53%) pilot and feasibility studies, 13 (38%) qualitative studies, and 2 experimental or quasi-experimental studies. None of the identified studies assessed an intervention of a caregiver app for care planning and coordination for people with MCCs. We identified important caregiver needs in terms of information, support, and care coordination related to both caregiving and self-care. We compiled desired functionalities and features enabling apps to meet the care planning and care coordination needs of caregivers, in particular, the integration of caregiver roles into the electronic health record.

CONCLUSIONS

Caregiver needs identified through this study can inform developers and researchers in the design and implementation of mHealth apps that integrate with the electronic health record to link caregivers, patients, and clinicians to support coordinated care for people with MCCs. In addition, this study highlights the need for more rigorous research on the use of mHealth apps to support caregivers in care planning and coordination.

Published: February 2023

BACKGROUND

Recent studies have shown positive, though small, clinical effects of digital smoking cessation (SC) interventions for cancer survivors. However, research on associations among participant characteristics, intervention engagement, and outcomes is limited.

OBJECTIVE

This study aimed to explore the predictors and moderators of engagement and outcome of MyCourse-Quit Smoking (in Dutch: “MijnKoers-Stoppen met Roken”), a digital minimally guided intervention for cancer survivors.

METHODS

A secondary analysis of data from the randomized controlled trial was performed. The number of cigarettes smoked in the past 7 days at 6-month follow-up was the primary outcome measure. We analyzed interactions among participant characteristics (11 variables), intervention engagement (3 variables), and outcome using robust linear (mixed) modeling.

RESULTS

In total, 165 participants were included in this study. Female participants accessed the intervention less often than male participants (B=–11.12; P=.004). A higher Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test score at baseline was associated with a significantly higher number of logins (B=1.10; P<.001) and diary registrations (B=1.29; P<.001). A higher Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence score at baseline in the intervention group was associated with a significantly larger reduction in tobacco use after 6 months (B=–9.86; P=.002). No other associations and no moderating effects were found.

CONCLUSIONS

Overall, a limited number of associations was found between participant characteristics, engagement, and outcome, except for gender, problematic alcohol use, and nicotine dependence. Future studies are needed to shed light on how this knowledge can be used to improve the effects of digital SC programs for cancer survivors.

Using constrained-disorder principle-based systems to improve the performance of digital twins in biological systems (Preprint)
Authors: Sigawi Tal , Ilan Yaron
Published: February 2023

UNSTRUCTURED

Digital twins are computer programs that use real-world data to create simulations that predict the performance of processes, products, and systems. Digital twins integrate artificial intelligence to improve their outputs. Models for dealing with uncertainties and noise are used to improve the accuracy of digital twins. Most currently used systems aim to reduce noise to improve outputs; however, biological systems are characterized by inherent variability, which is mandatory for their proper function. In the present paper, we review the role of noise in complex systems and its use in bioengineering. Review of recent literature We describe the use of digital twins for medical applications and current methods for dealing with noise and uncertainties in modeling. The paper presents methods to improve the accuracy and effectiveness of digital twin systems by continuously implementing signatures of variabilities while simultaneously reducing the amount of unwanted noise in their inputs and outputs. Accounting for the noisy internal and external environments of complex biological systems is mandatory for the future design of improved, more accurate digital twins.

Authors: Lavelim Bartholomeus , Destiarti Lia , Adhitiyawarman Adhitiyawarman , Sasri Risya
Published: February 2023

The use of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) as an adsorbent has challenges to overcome. Although rGO has a large surface area, its solubility in water is very low. In this study, bentonite is added to reduce the use of rGO mass and increase the dispersibility of the adsorbent. The rGO-bentonite (rGOB) was characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM-EDX, and XRF. The adsorption activity was tested in a Pb ion solution, derived from AAS. The XRD pattern of GO, rGO, and rGOB of 2q were observed at 10.90°, 24.88°, and 26.66°, respectively. The FTIR spectrum showed that GO has C=C, C-O, C=O, and O-H, while in rGO, C=O disappears, and there was a significant decrease in the O-H and C-O peaks. The rGOB has identical spectra with rGO and yet has an additional peak from bentonite O-Si-O. The GO and rGO form agglomerate while rGOB looks more dispersed. The C/O ratio increases from GO to rGO because of the reduction process. The bentonite is Ca-bentonite with main components Al2O3, SiO2, and CaO. The results showed that the rGOB composite could reduce the use of rGO by up to 80% and have an adsorption performance similar to rGO with an adsorption capacity of 217 mg/g.
Data Curation Strategies to Support Responsible Big Social Research and Big Social Data Reuse
Authors: Mannheimer Sara
Published: February 2023

Big social research repurposes existing data from online sources such as social media, blogs, or online forums, with a goal of advancing knowledge of human behavior and social phenomena. Big social research also presents an array of challenges that can prevent data sharing and reuse.

This brief report presents an overview of a larger study that aims to understand the data curation implications of big social research to support use and reuse of big social data. The study, which is based in the United States, identifies six key issues relating to big social research and big social data curation through a review of the literature. It then further investigates perceptions and practices relating to these six key issues through semi-structured interviews with big social researchers and data curators.

This report concludes with implications for data curation practice: metadata and documentation, connecting with researchers throughout the research process, data repository services, and advocating for community standards. Supporting responsible practices for using big social data can help scale up social science research, thus enhancing our understanding of human behavior and social phenomena.
Putting the R into PlatfoRms
Authors: Levett Kerry , Smillie Jonathan , Treloar Andrew
Published: February 2023

This paper looks at the question of how and why to bring about greater reusability of Research Platforms (variously called Virtual Laboratories, Virtual Research Environments, or Science Gateways). It begins with some context for the Australian Research Data Commons, where the authors are based. It then examines the infrastructure concerns that are driving the need for platforms to be created and remain sustainable, and the connection from this to reusability. The paper then proceeds to discuss the ways in which FAIR is being extended to a range of research objects and infrastructure elements, before reviewing the work of the FAIR4VREs WG. The core of the paper is an examination, with examples or case studies, of four different paradigms for platform reusability: accessing, adopting, adapting, and abstracting. The paper concludes by examining actions undertaken by the ARDC to increase the likelihood of reusability.
Towards Environmentally Sustainable Long-term Digital Preservation

Published: February 2023

ARCHIVER and Pre-Commercial Procurement funding has enabled small to medium enterprises (SMEs) to innovate and deliver new services for EOSC. Within the framework of the ARCHIVER pre-commercial procurement tender, between December 2020 and August 2021, three commercial consortia competed to deliver innovative, prototype solutions for long-term data preservation. Two of them were selected to continue with the pilot phase and deliver research-ready solutions for long-term data preservation of research data, therefore filling a gap in the current European Open Science panorama.
Digital preservation relies on technological infrastructure (information and communication technology, ICT) that can have environmental impacts. While altering technology usage can reduce the impact of digital preservation practices, this alone is not a strategy for sustainable practice. Moving toward environmentally sustainable digital preservation requires critically examining the motivations and assumptions that shape current practice. The use of scalable cloud infrastructures can reduce the environmental impacts of long-term data preservation solutions.

Authors: Lu Miranda D. , Usatine Richard , Holt James , Harper Diane M. , Verdieck Alexandra
Published: February 2023

Background and Objectives: Diagnosing skin disorders is a core skill in family medicine residency. Accurate diagnosis of skin cancers has a significant impact on patient health. Dermoscopy improves a physician’s accuracy in diagnosing skin cancers. We aimed to quantify the current state of dermoscopy use and training in family medicine residencies.
Methods: We included questions on dermoscopy training in the 2021 Council of Academic Family Medicine Educational Research Alliance (CERA) survey of family medicine residency program directors. The survey asked about access to a dermatoscope, the presence of faculty with experience using dermoscopy, the amount of dermoscopy didactic time, and the amount of hands-on dermoscopy training.
Results: Of 631 programs, 275 program directors (43.58% response rate) responded. Half of the responding programs (50.2%) had access to a dermatoscope, and 54.2% had a faculty member with experience using dermoscopy. However, only 6.8% of residents had 4 or more hours of didactics on dermoscopy over their entire training. Only 16.2% had 4 or more hours of hands-on dermoscopy use. Over half (58.9%) of programs planned to add more dermoscopy training. We did not find any correlations between the program’s size/type/location and dermoscopy training opportunities.
Conclusions: Despite reasonable access to a dermatoscope and the presence of at least one faculty member with dermoscopy experience, most family medicine residency programs provided limited dermoscopy training opportunities. Research is needed to better understand how to facilitate dermoscopy training in family medicine residencies.

Published: February 2023

Insofar as a few researchers have studied the effect of strategic agility (SA) adoption as a technique for enabling sustainable competitive advantage (SCA) in higher education institutions (HEIs). In this regard, this study will examine the extent to which SCA enhances SA and the factors influencing the adoption of these techniques in the context of HEIs, using the dynamic capabilities theory (Tallon et al., 2019; Păunescu et al., 2018). This study aims to explore the highest-order firm’s capabilities, namely leadership capability, entrepreneurial capability, information technology (IT) capability, and alliance management capability, based on the perspective of dynamic capability theory as factors that influence SA and SCA with a systematic review approach to address all research topics in this study. Therefore, the primary objectives of this research are to investigate the adoption of SA practices among private HEIs in Indonesia and its effect on SCA in the context of dynamic capabilities by using a systematic review approach. The results show that the SA method will be the right instrument to achieve SCA in private HEIs in Indonesia. SCA can be utilized for HEIs organizations to achieve sustainable and long-term performance.
Nexus of multidimensional poverty and educational deprivation among the social groups: Evidence from a developing country
Authors: Baiju K. C.
Published: February 2023

The interface between the incidence of multidimensional poverty and its fallout on educational deprivation is often debated in the realm of human development perspective. The paper aims to explore the nexus of multidimensional poverty and educational deprivation among the households belonging to different social groups, namely Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), Other Backward Castes (OBC), and Forward Castes (FC) in rural areas of a developing country, India (Gaur & Rao, 2020). A decomposition analysis within the human development framework using primary data from selected regions of India, namely Kerala, West Bengal, and Bihar, is attempted to explore whether there is any deprivation gap in education in the selected regions. The multidimensional poverty and educa-tional deprivation of select states are analysed using the Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) developed by Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiatives (OPHI) (Alkire & Foster, 2011; Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development [OECD], 2022; PIB Delhi, 2020; Ballon & Krishnakumar, 2010). The study identified the determinants of educational deprivation and its nexus with the multidimensional poverty of the households belonging to the social groups of rural India. The paper highlights the influence of disproportional attainment of education, which worsens deprivation leading to unequal outcomes of human development among the different social groups of rural India. The discussion further unfolds the incidence of disproportional multidimensional poverty among social groups in rural India that enables the explanation of the policy implications and interventions in educational entitlements.

The integration of ecosystem processes over large spatial extents is
critical to predicting whether and how global changes may impact
biodiversity and ecosystem functions. Yet, there remains an important
gap in meta-ecosystem models to predict multiple functions (e.g., carbon
sequestration, elemental cycling, trophic efficiency) across ecosystem
types (e.g., terrestrial-aquatic, benthic-pelagic). We derive a flexible
meta-ecosystem model to predict ecosystem functions at landscape extents
by integrating the spatial dimension of natural systems as spatial
networks of different habitat types connected by cross-ecosystem flows
of materials and organisms. We partition the physical connectedness of
ecosystems from the spatial flow rates of materials and organisms,
allowing the representation of all types of connectivity across
ecosystem boundaries as well as the interaction(s) between them. Through
simulating a forest-lake-stream meta-ecosystem, our model illustrated
that even if spatial flows induced significant local losses of
nutrients, differences in local ecosystem efficiencies could lead to
increased secondary production at regional scale. This emergent result,
which we dub the ‘cross-ecosystem efficiency hypothesis’, emphasizes the
importance of integrating ecosystem diversity and complementarity in
meta-ecosystem models to generate empirically testable hypotheses for
ecosystem functions.
Earthquake Aftershocks Pattern Prediction
Authors: Dugda Mulugeta Tuji , Kassa Alemayehu B , Pouchard Line , Lin Yuewei , Seifu Amanuel
Published: February 2023

Large earthquakes, especially those occurring in a city or population
centers, create devastation and havoc, and often times kindle several
deaths and injuries, and significant infrastructure damage that lead to
several billions of dollars in losses. Marine earthquakes are the
leading cause of large tsunamis which cause deaths, destruction,
displacement of population, and a possible nuclear meltdown. Thus,
prediction of earthquake or its aftershocks or earthquake early warning
system has a great potential to mitigate the loss of life as well as
different kinds of damage. Earthquake prediction would mean forecasting
the occurrence of an earthquake by providing both its magnitude estimate
and accurate location. Earthquake prediction has been an important area
of seismology research for quite a while, and it looks like it will
continue to be an important area of research. Recently, with the
implementation of deep learning in seismology, scientists have been able
to detect, predict, and model seismic waves and earthquake aftershocks.
Earthquake aftershocks are generally triggered by changes in stress
formed by large earthquakes that happen within, or surrounding a given
fault network system. The main goal of this study is to investigate the
improvement of aftershock pattern predictions with the implementation of
tuning and optimizing of deep learning parameters. To achieve these
goals, we have developed an algorithm that can help first gather
mainshock-aftershock sequence data. Some of the criteria used in
identifying earthquakes that initiate an aftershock is to look at
earthquakes that happen within a certain radius, the values we attempted
are within about 0.5 degrees range, and within a certain period, from
few seconds to several weeks of the occurrence of the main shock. For
the sequence identification, we have been using seismic data from the
United States Geological Survey (USGS)-National Earthquake Information
Center (NEIC). We are also looking at different open-source data
gathered by researchers for a similar study. The deep neural networks we
are implementing make use of Keras python Toolkit, and Theano and
Tensorflow libraries, with a plan to use PyTorch python library instead
of Theano library in the future because of some maintenance issues. To
this point our attempts have shown a good progress.
Sensitivity of African Easterly Waves to Dust Forcing
Authors: Bangalath Hamza Kunhu , Raj Jerry , Stenchikov Georgiy
Published: February 2023

[There is a lack of agreement on the sign and magnitude of the effect
of dust-radiative forcing on African easterly waves (AEWs) among past
studies. The uncertainty in the dust-radiative forcing associated with
the estimation of shortwave absorption is a leading cause of
disagreement in the literature. The inability of models to represent
various dust–AEW interaction pathways also leads to uncertainty among
modeling studies. The present study investigates the sensitivity of AEWs
to the observed variability in dust shortwave absorption using a
high-resolution atmospheric general circulation model. Global
simulations are conducted at a spatial resolution of about 25 km to
simulate AEWs and associated circulation features adequately well. The
results reveal that AEWs are highly sensitive to dust shortwave
absorption. In addition, the AEW activity intensifies and broadens the
wave track with a southward shift in response to dust shortwave
absorption. There is approximately a 25 \% change in
eddy kinetic energy (EKE) associated with AEWs for the range of dust
shortwave absorption used. The 6-9–day waves are more sensitive to dust
shortwave absorption than the 3-5–day waves, where the response in the
former has a stark land–sea contrast. The sensitivity of AEW to dust
heating stems from a combination of the response from various energy
conversions. Although baroclinic energy conversion is the leading term
in the energy cycle, the responses to dust shortwave heating in
barotropic and generation terms are comparable to those in baroclinic
conversion.]
The redistribution of freedom: Normative analysis of the universal basic income
Authors: Albert Juan-Francisco
Published: February 2023

Given the rapid structural changes that our societies are experiencing, there
is an urgent need to rethink our values and reformulate the social contract.
The Universal Basic Income (UBI) is gaining more relevance in academic and
public debates as the best alternative for a necessary change. This paper
presents an exhaustive evaluation of the UBI in its normative character with
an assessment of its convenience according to different theories of social
justice and concepts of freedom. It is argued that UBI can be a good tool to
improve the freedom and well-being of individuals, but it is not exempt from
criticism. The paper puts forward an original financing proposal through the
creation of a Sovereign Wealth Fund and a new monetary policy design with
the aim of minimizing these criticisms.

The Impact of Innovation Technology on Carbon Emissions in India
Authors: Chaudhry Archna , Chandni
Published: February 2023

Numerous studies have examined the determinants of CO2 emission. However, earlier research has neglected to analyse the emission of CO2 resulting from the exchange of innovation technology. The present work contributes to the research stream by examining the relationship between innovation technology and environmental degradation in India from 1980 to 2021 during the time period of study. On the basis of the Auto Regressive Distributive Lag (ARDL) model and the Vector Error Correction (VECM) Granger Causality approach, the main finding is that innovation technologies are the primary contributors to India’s long-term CO2 emission. Short-term causality emerges from one-way causation between innovation technology and CO2 emissions. Additionally, a long-term feedback hypothesis between energy usage and CO2 emissions is rejected. Numerous critical tests are conducted to assure the stability of the model and the dependability of policy-relevant conclusions. This study proposes that the Indian government should invest more in research and development to increase its innovative technological power, which would be beneficial for environmental protection.

本文根據錢穆二十一三十年代幾部重要的學術思想史著作——主要包括《論語要略》、《國學概論》、《先秦諸子繫年》等書，探討錢氏一套獨特的治史方式與風格；考察錢氏在上述諸書中有關孔子史事的論述，如何匯通經、史、子各部的史料，進行精細的考訂與辨疑，廓清障蔽迷霧，從而爲日後學界建立一個如其實在的孔子形象。錢氏早年的孔子研究，一洗“五四”以來極端疑古反孔的浮風惡習，把史學研究帶上考信之途。更有進者，錢氏將《論語》一書，由作爲孔門師弟思想言行表現的記録，變成爲一種可能有可靠年序的歷史記事的原典，可與《史記》、《左傳》等史籍參補互證。此實爲錢氏考信史學之又一項重要成就。This paper relies on a number of Qian Mu’s important academic works on intellectual history published in the 1920s and 1930s; these include Lunyu Yaolue (The Outline of Analects of Confucius), Guoxue Gailun (An Introduction to Chinese Studies), Xianqin Zhuzi Xinian (The Chronology of Different Schools of Pre-Qin Period), and others, and aims at evaluating Qian’ s unique methods and style of studying history. Through an examination of Qian’s descriptions of Confucius in the above works, this paper shows that Qian had conducted careful evaluation, criticism, analyses, and clarification of historical sources of the books like Jing (Conjucian Classics), Shi (Ancient History) and Zi (Books of Pre-Qin Philosophers), and thus constructed a highly reliable biography of Confucius for the later scholarly circles. Qian Mu’s early studies of Confucius refuted that the extremely critical portrayal of Confucius since the May Fourth Movement, and emphasized the significance of testing the truth in historical studies. More importantly, Qian used Lunyu (Analects of Confucius) as the record of the thoughts and behavior of Confucius and his students, and thus acknowledged the book as a primary source for the chronology of historical events, putting it on the same footing as Shiji (Historical Records) and Zuozhuan. These are the significant achievements of Qian Mu’s historical methods of testing the truth.

《郭店楚墓竹簡》發表後不久，《上海博物館藏戰國楚竹書（册一至册六）》亦陸續出版。這批竹簡屬於戰國晚期，爲楚國遷都以前的墓葬品。本文集中研究第二册《從政甲》篇的一個問題。此篇雖早有完整的釋文與考釋，但未如理想之處尚多。其中“■（?）則■（失）衆”，首字釋文闕略。本篇擬匡正原釋文釋讀上的疏失，並釐清一些學者間爭論已久的問題。
作者認爲，簡文“■”字當隸定爲“洒”，讀爲“峻”。在古文獻中，“峻”字常用來表達“嚴峻”與“急迫”的意思。

My study focuses on the forth essay of the second volume of the series, which was named as Cong zheng I 從政甲篇. Although it includes a complete transcription of the bamboo texts and provides full explanatory notes, the work is still far from satisfactory. For example, the phase "■(?)則■(失)衆” in the essay even includes a character remains undeciphered. The present thesis attempts to rectify the errors in the official decipherments, readings and interpretations of the above phase, and to settle some lingening and entangling disputes amongst scholars, so that the original meanings of the texts can be brought to light.
As a result, the character “■” is deciphered as “洒”, and is carefully proved to be a phonetic loan character of “峻”, which commonly means “harsh and compelling” in ancient documents.Limited by the system, we cannot display certain special Chinese characters here.

The present paper examines the rubbings of the Marquis of Ying gui, collected in Shouyang Zhai by Hu Yingying and Fan Ji-rong, and attributes this bronze gui to Shigong, Marquis of Ying, likely late in the reign of King Li of Western Zhou. The author believes that it belongs to the same donar of the tripod of Shigong, Marguis of Ying, which is preserved in Shanghai Museum. The author of this paper believes that Huainanyi Ni in the inscriptions does not refer to Ni, the duke of Chu, who can be dated to the period of the reign of King Xuan of Zhou, and also provides new decipherment of a few characters, such as lu, jia, rong and shou.

論任昉詩風

鍾嶸論任昉詩風特點有四：一曰拓體淵雅，二曰善銓事理，三曰競須新事，四曰詞不貴奇。拓體淵雅，即文體和正，聲調雅致。善銓事理，即依事行文，文理相合。任昉將這兩種“筆法”用於寫詩，對南朝詩歌的“筆化”、“文化”起到了推動作用。此外，任昉還將肇於建安，興於晉宋，經傅咸、應璩、顏延之、謝靈運、謝莊、劉駿等人發揚的指事之法引入齊梁詩壇，成任昉詩派。任昉作詩喜引新事，不拘外家内家、正史别史，都拓體淵雅，近於儒家，與追求直致與奇格的道家詩風有别。Zhong Rong (fl. 502-519) summed up four main aspects in his discussion of the characteristics of Ren Fang’s (460-508) poetry: 1) erudition and refinement, 2) clear expression, 3) an effort to use new allusions, and 4) no pursuit for the grotesque. “Erudition and refinement” referred to the elegant style and harmonious sound of Ren’s poetry, while “clear expression” meant Ren’s ability to give a realistic representation of the object. These two aspects were important features of prose writing, yet Ren applied these techniques to poetry composition. As a result, he made a significant contribution to Southern dynasties poetry by initiating a change in style from shi (verse) to bi (essay) and wen (prose). He also founded a Ren Fang “school” by introducing the technique of using allusions in the Qi-Liang poetic arena. The practice of using allusions in poetic works began in the Jian’an era (196-220), and thrived during the Jin and Song dynasties (265-479) in the hands of Fu Xian (239-294), Ying Qu (190-252), Yan Yanzhi (384-456), Xie Lingyun (385-433), Xie Zhuang (421-466), and Liu Jun (430-464). Ren Fang was fond of many different kinds of new allusions to sources by various scholars and historians. His poetic style was profound and refined. It was close to Confucianism but different from Daoism, which pursued straightforwardness and the grotesque.
論宋代人鬼婚戀文言小説中的復活、冥婚與改葬故事
Authors: 劉 燕萍

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in Chinese; abstract also in English.

宋代人鬼婚戀類文言小説，與喪葬文化有關的如復活、冥婚、改葬之篇。這三類篇章，不但反映了宋人的喪葬文化，亦表現了對死亡課題的反思。復活類文言小説中，《解七五姐》（《夷堅三志》壬卷第十）和《畢令女》（《夷堅乙志》卷七）兩篇“道術復生”小説中，出現一位導師：九天玄女。特别之處在於，玄女突破一貫以來天女、戰爭女神和房中術導師的神格；在兩篇小説中，負起授術（房中術）令亡靈起死復生的復活導師之職。查玄女至宋代，與墓葬、地券有關連。1997年巴中出土的南宋地券，可作爲篇中玄女有别於前代（戰爭女神、房中術導師）的神格佐證。至宋代，玄女已與墓葬、鎮墓有重大關係。《解七五姐》與《畢令女》兩篇中的女主角，采用“枯骨生肉”和“無骸式復活”的復生術，亦表現二人極其强烈的反抗死亡之復生意志。冥婚類文言小説如《骨偶記》（《青瑣高議》别集卷五）和《任迥春游》（《夷堅志補》卷十六）等篇，反映了冥婚的婚俗如“鬼媒”（宋《昨夢録》記録宋代有“鬼媒人”之俗）、雙棺葬（《骨偶記》）、“贅鬼”（《任迥春游》）和“嫁於殤”（《骨偶記》）等習俗。冥婚中的“共穴”意識（如《任迥春游》中的“幻變空間”）和嫁娶方式（“贅鬼”、“嫁於殤”），都有著同一基調：“慰靈”。改葬類文言小説，透過改葬如”故鄉葬”（《青瑣高議》别集卷三《越娘記》）、“法葬”（《越娘記》）和“從夫葬”（《青瑣高議》前集卷五《遠烟記》），遂却鬼靈的回鄉、回國葬之願，及歸宗夫族之想。改葬亦在情節上產生重要作用，改變了助葬者與被改葬者的關係。《越娘記》中便衍生一段“報恩情”；《遠烟記》中，則透過改葬，成就一段“結髮情”。復活、冥婚和改葬三類文言小説，透過喪葬文化，對死亡遺憾，作出種種反思及補償，很具特色，值得作深入的探討。Among the human-ghost love stories of the Song dynasty fiction, there are stories related with burial rites. Among the resurrection stories such as “Jie Qi Wu Jie” (解七五姐) and “Bi Ling Nu” (畢令女), Goddess of the Empyrean (九天玄女) acts as the mentor in the process of rebirth. The struggle of the protagonists to revive from death demonstrate a very strong will power to fight against the detrimental fate of death. As for the underworld-marriage stories such as “Gu Ou Ji” (骨偶記) and “Ren Jiong Chuan You” (任迴春游), they reflect the special underworld-marriage rites. Such special marriage-arrangements can be viewed as a kind of compensation for the pre-mature death of the youngsters. In addition, in re-burial stories such as “Yue Niang Ji” (越娘記) and “Yuan Yan Ji” (遠烟記), re-burial is not only a kind of compensation to pacify the haunting ghosts, it also affects the human-ghost love relationship of the plot. Resurrection, underworld-marriage and re-burial stories on one hand reflects the burial cultural of the Song dynasty, on the other hand, they serve as tools to compensate the sorrowful ghosts.
左翼視野下的民衆——魯迅與福柯的一個比較
Authors: 曹 清華

LANGUAGE NOTE | Document text in Chinese; abstract also in English.

魯迅和福柯都傾向“左翼”——同情民衆，關注“被壓迫者”，參與或支持左翼的文化和政治運動。在共同的“左翼”視野下，他們對民衆的思考亦有諸多相通的地方。一方面，與福柯所强調的民衆之間的相互作用以及深受統治階级的道德意識形態的影響相一致，魯迅也認識到，作爲一個革新者，自己面對的民衆是一個難以切割的整體；另一方面，一旦選擇自己的社會和道德立場，福柯與魯迅都關注下層民衆身受的“壓迫”，認同下層民衆“被壓迫者”的社會位置。與此同時，他們都警惕知識分子代言的角色，認爲民衆的反抗壓迫最重要的是發出自己的聲音。Both Lu Xun (1881-1936) and Michel Foucault (1926-1984) showed left-wing tendencies. They sympathized with the masses, were concerned about those who were repressed, and participated in or supported left-wing cultural and political movements. With a common left-wing vision, these two individuals also reflected on the masses in similar ways. Foucault emphasized that interaction within the masses had the same effect on them as the ruling class’s ideology. As a reformer, Lu Xun realized that the masses he faced should be treated as an undividable entity. Another similarity between the two individuals is their sympathy with the masses. Once they determined their own views on society and ethics, they both focused on the oppression borne by the masses and clearly defined this social stratum as “the oppressed.” In addition, they were both on guard against intellectuals who merely played the role of spokesmen for the masses. They maintained that the masses should speak out for themselves as a means to combat oppression.
重讀古德諾

作爲袁世凱憲法顧問的古德諾博士，因其供袁氏參考之備忘録《共和與君主論》的發表而在中國近代史上留下了不光彩的一筆。後世史家每每提及袁氏稱帝一事，總要連帶抨擊古德諾和他的《共和與君主論》，認爲古氏實爲帝制擁躉，《共和與君主論》則是一篇阿諛迎奉、爲袁氏登基强行尋求合理性的千古謬論。然而筆者通過考察古德諾1915年前後的在華活動並且通過研讀《共和與君主論》，認爲對於古德諾及其思想做出這樣的歷史評價未免過於武斷。古氏對於中國國情的認識及其對於民主先決條件的思考，至今仍有其特殊的現實意義與參考價值。Dr. Goodnow, Yuan Shikai’s legislation consultant, was considered to be a humiliating figure in modem Chinese history due to his , a private memo for Yuan. Most of the Chinese scholars criticized Goodnow for his viewpoints in the memo. However, a different conclusion was deduced after the author carefully examined Goodnow’s work and actions during Yuan’s reign. His statements about the preconditions of democracy and the gradualism of China’s reform may still be inspiring today.
Long-term effects of saffron pollen on development, reproduction and predation capacity of Neoseiulus cucumeris (Acari: Phytoseiidae)
Authors: Naqshbandi Sayed Salman , Fathipour Yaghoub , Hajiqanbar Hamidreza , Yazdanpanah Shima

Predatory phytoseiid mites as biocontrol agents are increasingly used in pest control programs across the globe, and Neoseiulus cucumeris (Oudemans) is one of them, which is a commercially available agent against various pests of greenhouse crops. This generalist predatory mite can feed on different foods and diets, including small arthropods and pollen. Feeding and reproducing on a pollen diet is a considerable characteristic of this predatory mite that facilitates the cost-effective production of large numbers of this predator so-called mass rearing. Therefore, the effects of saffron (Crocus sativus L.) pollen as an alternative food source on development and reproduction of N. cucumeris were determined over 20 successive generations. In addition, the predation ability of the nymphs and adults of N. cucumeris being switched to natural prey, Tetranychus urticae Koch after 10th and 20th generations was evaluated. The shortest and longest developmental time happened in the 1th and 5st generations, respectively. The predator in the 1st and 20th generations had a higher intrinsic rate of increase (r) (0.171 and 0.170 day-1, respectively) than other generations, while the 5th generation had the lowest value of this parameter. The development and fecundity of N. cucumeris was not significantly different when this predator switched to a diet of T. urticae. The results of this study revealed that rearing of N. cucumeris for 20 generations on saffron pollen did not affect the performance of the predator negatively and this alternative food source can be used for the mass rearing of N. cucumeris.
