AbstractIn marketing channels, distributor whistleblowing can deter unethical behaviors, though little academic research investigates this tactic. Drawing on whistleblowing literature in business ethics and organizational theory, as well as field interviews with channel managers, this article identifies and elucidates the notion of distributor whistleblowing in marketing channels. Specifically, this study investigates how a manufacturer’s control modes (monitoring and incentives) encourage or discourage distributor whistleblowing. This study also considers the impact of distributor whistleblowing on relationship quality and the moderating effects of (...) exchange hazards (i.e., transaction-specific investments and market uncertainty). The empirical results from a sample of 211 Chinese distributors indicate that manufacturers’ monitoring inhibits, whereas incentives boost distributor whistleblowing. Further, a positive link arises between distributor whistleblowing and relationship quality, which is weakened by distributor transaction-specific investments and strengthened by market uncertainty.

ObjectiveNumerous studies have demonstrated that religious belief is associated with prosocial behavior. However, how do they maintain cooperation in societies with a predominating atheist population, such as China? Different primings and a quasi-experiment are used to examine the link between communist authority and prosocial behaviors among college students in China.Materials and methodsIn Study 1, the subjects’ communist authority in the university lab was primed by a communist-authority video. In Study 2, we compared the priming effects of communist authority and religion (...) on prosocial intention. Study 3 investigated the priming effect of communist authority on prosocial behaviors by employing a scrambled sentence task in the university lab. A quasi-experiment was conducted in Study 4.ResultsResults showed that communist-authority, a reminder of secular authorities, increased prosociality among college students. And empathy moderated the relationship between secular authorities and prosociality in Study 3 and Study 4.DiscussionCommunist authority, a secular authority prime, has a positive effect on promoting prosocial behaviors. These results provided a feasible yet novel way to reveal the mechanism of the relationship between secular authorities and prosociality in China. (shrink)

Teachers have an important social role, and their mental health literacy is very important to their own abilities as educators and to the growth and development of those they educate. This study explored the mechanism underlying the influence of social support on teachers’ mental health literacy by conducting a questionnaire survey of 573 teachers. The results showed that social support can influence teachers’ mental health literacy not only through the separate effects of life satisfaction and coping tendency but also through (...) the chain mediation effect of life satisfaction and coping tendency; however, the direct effect of social support on the teachers’ mental health literacy is not significant. This study is conducive to understanding the internal mechanism underlying the relationship between social support and mental health literacy. It reminded us that when formulating mental health literacy promotion programs for teachers, we should not only provide adequate social support to improve but also should pay attention to improvements in their coping tendencies and life satisfaction.

ObjectiveTo investigate the characteristics of response inhibition of overweight/obese people, using behavior experiments combine with neural electrophysiological technology and discussing the difference in impulse level between obesity/overweight and normal-weight people through EEG data, questionnaire, and behavior experiment.Method All participants completed the Go/Nogo task; meanwhile, behavior data and 64 channel EEG data were recorded. Participants completed the Stop-Signal task and behavior date was recorded.Results During Go/Nogo task, no significant differences were found in reaction time, omission errors of the Go task between (...) the two groups, while commission errors of the Nogo task of the control group were significantly greater than the overweight/obesity group. About SSRT during the Stop-Signal Task, the interaction of stimulus type and group was significant. No significant differences were found between the two groups in amplitude and latency of N2. About the amplitude of P3, the interaction of task type, electrode point, and groups were significant, the control group P3 amplitude was significantly greater than overweight/obesity group during the Nogo task. Regarding about latency of P3, the interaction of group and electrode point were not significant, but the main effect of task type was significant.Conclusion In terms of behavioral outcomes, overweight–obese subjects had lower dominant response inhibition and response cessation compared to normal-weight subjects. In terms of EEG results, overweight–obese subjects showed no difference in processing speed and level of conflict monitoring for early inhibitory processing compared to normal-weight subjects, but there was a deficit in behavioral control for late inhibitory processing.

At present, although artificial intelligence (AI) has made great progress in the aspects of control policy and operation, there is still no unified ethical decision mode, laws and regulations in ethical dilemma, which seriously affect application and development of artificial intelligence. Therefore, this paper studies and analyzes various ethical decision mode of AI system, then the current research status and advantages, deficiencies of these decision modes are analyzed and summarized. According to the characteristics of the current ethical decision modes and (...) existing problems, the future implementation mode for the future ethical decision of artificial intelligence is explored and discussed. A hierarchical hybrid ethical decision mode will be proposed and designed, which has the advantages of the existing ethical decision modes. In addition, it will provide a few references for research, design and formulation of laws, regulations of AI. (shrink)

This project was undertaken to ascertain the perceptions of a group of Taiwan’s fourth-year bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) students regarding death and help expected from nurses during the dying process. Within the Chinese culture, death is one of the most important life issues. However, in many Chinese societies it is difficult for people to reveal their deepest feelings to their significant others or loved ones. It was in this context that this project was developed because little is known (...) about how Taiwan’s nursing students perceive death and the dying process. Using an open-ended, self-report questionnaire, 110 senior BSN students recorded their thoughts on: (1) their fears before physical death; (2) afterlife destinations; and (3) the help they would expect from nurses when dying. The data were analyzed using a three-layer qualitative thematic analysis. The students’ reported needs during the dying process were directed towards three main goals: (1) help in reaching the ‘triple targets of individual life’; (2) help in facilitating in-depth support so that both the dying person and significant others can experience a blessed farewell; and (3) help in reaching a destination in the afterlife. The results support the belief of dying as a transition occurring when life weans itself from the mortal world and prepares for an afterlife. (shrink)

許倬雲先生最新作品，介紹中國庶民社會的種種觀念，及其如何貫徹於日常生活。 宇宙和人之間，彼此呼應。 個人彼此之間，相應與互濟。 個人得到群體的庇護，也有回報的義務。 《中國人的精神生活》志在介紹中國庶民社會的種種觀念，及其貫徹於日常生活。經過消化與吸收歷史上許多賢哲的提示，中國人的思考方式，是多元互動，注視變化，以觀察宇宙和人生。時間軸線是延續的，切不斷過去，對未 來也應負起一定的責任。以上三個方向，毋寧是以「個人」為宇宙網絡的中心；宇宙、社會，都是個人互動的對象。個人不能脫離這大網絡而存在。個人一生是不斷提升，以超脫慾望的引誘，回復真誠的自我。內心的檢討，得之 於儒、道、佛三家的融合及其實踐。個人持守一定的境界，在宇宙和社會網絡之中，才能安頓自己，以致安頓整個的人類世界。 《中國人的精神生活》分成十章，從各個角度討論中國人的精神生活。在前言中，許倬嘗試從馮友蘭和費孝通二位先生的基礎上出發，希望能夠釐清一般中國人，從傳統延續到今天，他們對於宇宙、人生和自然，所持有的觀念。 第一章著重闡述了中國人的生活，他們在天地自然這個大時空中的生活節律，及其與我們的文化、文學等各方面的關係。這構成了理解中國人精神生活的宏觀背景。第二章提出中國人的精神生活，是圍繞著作為「人」的觀念來展 開的。第三章的「傳說」部分，與第二章也有相當的關係，討論到中國人的宇宙觀。第四章是討論互動秩序中，永遠在變動、由動趨衡的宇宙──本體就是過程，過程也就是本體，二者無法分割。第五章則以八卦、奇門、命相、 風水等等，解讀中國人的行為──他們以這些類科學或是擬科學的思考，設法在人與自然之間，取得一些「人」的主動權。第六章的重點，是將生命看作許多個體生命，從父母生我開始，直至自己身故之後，延伸進入另外一個世 界──那個死亡後的世界，其實還是這個現實世界的延續：這是線性時間軸的意義。第七章討論的是，今天中國人的社會──以作者所熟悉的臺灣社會作為例證，陳述常民藉由祭祀活動，對各種自然的現象的認知。第九章是從戰 前中國的傳統社會切入，探討人們如何處理小區、社群中的種種事務，俾使能夠彼此互助、照應，救濟不足，以保持社群的長期穩定。第十章，則是從傳說和美學，延伸為對於小說的討論。後言是一方面總結本書各章所陳述的現 象；同時提出：中國文化以人為主體的特性，以及人與自然密切相關的依附關係，也許可以當作它山之石。 ◎ 學者推薦 作為一部學術專著，本書體現了現代客觀研究的極致。作者認定西方文化所主導的現代文明，由於「人與人之間的疏離，人與自然之間的分割」，今天已深陷於危機之中；而中國文化則以人為主體，人與自然也融合互依。因此他 希望中國文化的特色能發生他山之石的功用，以「匡救現代文明的困難」。這是一部「明道」之作，同時又是一部「救世」之作，我鄭重地推薦它給讀者。 ──余英時（中央研究院院士，普林斯頓大學講座教授。2006年獲頒有「人文學諾貝爾獎」之稱的克魯格獎〔Kluge Prize〕。2014年獲頒第一屆唐獎漢學獎。） 許倬雲先生是中國史研究的大家，他的西周史、春秋戰國與漢代的社會史研究獨步天下，但影響更大的是他打通中西、縱觀古今的通史研究。許先生的著作，氣象與格局都很大，這與他的內心擁有家國天下的大關懷有關。文化有 大傳統與小傳統之分，以往對中國文化的闡述，大都從儒道佛經典的大傳統層面檢討，然而許先生觀察中國文化的法眼，卻從小傳統進入，不是從精英的觀念，而是從一般普通民眾的態度，即他們的安身立命、處事做人的原則， 來考察日常生活形態中的中國文化。 ──許紀霖（華東師範大學歷史系教授）.

明清之際至清末民初，是一個風雨飄搖的時代。多少救亡圖強、經世濟民學說產生。不論是否受到西方文化衝擊的影響，中國儒家思想發展至明末清初時，已產生諸多經世濟民、實學致用等理論。尤其清初遺民在其著作中，以註 釋《易經》為多，以釋《易》作為抒發經世、處世，乃至身心安頓之作。 本書針對當時較為重要人物，如：孫奇逢、刁包、黃宗羲、方以智、張爾岐、錢澄之、顧炎武、王夫之八位學者，其《易》學中經世致用、內聖外王之道，作一披露與闡述。.
