A Genre Analysis of Online English Job Advertisement

In the recent years, posting online job advertisements has become a major way for a growing number of multinational cor-porations to publicize their employment information and to recruit job seekers. Nevertheless, the language and space of online jobadvertisement are uneven, which may affect the companies to attract and communicate with the potential candidates. Based on thetheoretical framework of moves and steps analysis suggested by Swales(1990) and Bhatia(2004), the study aims to explore thestructural pattern of this genre and to examine the lexico-grammatical features of each move and step. After analyzing four piecesof job advertisements retrieved from different recruiting websites, the study reveals that there are six moves in the whole structureof online job advertisement, among these, three moves are obligatory, named: establishing credential, introducing the position, to-gether with specifying required qualifications, skills, and experiences. Meanwhile, in each move, the positive adjectives, verbs, andfirst person are frequently used to serve the promotional function, and therefore to intensify the communicative purpose. The studymay contribute to the application of genre analysis in business English teaching, and also be instructive to the reading and writingof online job advertisement.

社区传染性疾病技能培训问题调查

背景社区卫生服务机构作为传染病防控工作的最基层单位,是传染病防治的前沿阵地和重要关口,基层医务工作者承担着辖区内疫情监测、预防接种、健康宣传及协助疾控部门调查处置暴发疫情和突发公共卫生事件等职责,在疾病群防群控、易感人群保护、传染源控制及健康宣教等方面发挥着积极作用,同时对有效防控传染病发挥关键作用。目的了解基层医务工作者社区传染病的诊治能力,分析存在的问题和薄弱方面,有针对性地设计及开展传染病相关系列培训,提高基层传染病防控能力。方法2021年11月—2022年3月以香港大学深圳医院全科医学科在2021年11月举办的国家级社区传染性疾病继续教育会议的所有参会者为研究对象。会前、会后通过问卷星二维码向参会者发放调查问卷,会前问卷内容包括参会者人口学特征,工作后是否参加过社区传染病培训,社区传染病诊治开展情况,社区传染病防治的主观态度(是否愿意管理社区传染病、对自己传染病诊治能力满意度),传染病防治专业知识及会议内容相关知识,对慢性乙型肝炎的态度。会后问卷内容主要为会议内容相关知识、对慢性乙型肝炎的态度以及对本次线上会议满意度调查。会前共有301名基层医务工作者完成调查问卷,会前及会后均完成调查问卷共有194名。结果工作后参加过社区传染病培训的有166名(55.1%),其中评价对自己传染病诊治能力表示满意的有49名(29.5%);未参加过的有135名(44.8%),评价自己传染病诊治能力表示满意的有22名(16.3%)。是否愿意管理社区传染病:参加过社区传染病培训的166名中有143名(86.1%)表示愿意;未参加过培训的135名中表示愿意的有99名(73.3%)。而对自己传染病诊治能力满意的人中66名(27.3%)表示愿意管理社区传染病。所在单位开展的传染病检测中,前三位分别是慢性乙型肝炎、艾滋病和慢性丙型肝炎;过去半年内接诊过的传染病排名前三位分别是慢性乙型肝炎、流感和手足口病。不同自我评价、培训意愿可能影响管理社区传染病意愿(P<0.05)。会前及会后均完成问卷的参会者中,会前对于强制管理的法定传染病回答正确率较高为89.7%,而对新型冠状病毒感染消毒类型的正确率仅有17.0%,其他题目的正确率为34.0%~40.7%;其他题目会后正确率均高于会前,正确率为48.9%~52.6%。对慢性乙型肝炎的态度方面,会后得分高于会前(P<0.05)。会后反馈方面,共259份问卷其中表示满意的有254名(98.1%)。其中对线上会议的建议方面,179名(69.1%)和174名(67.2%)认为网络流畅度和线上互动程度需要提高。结论基层医务工作者接受的社区传染病培训较少,通过传染病培训能提高基层医务工作者对自我能力的肯定及积极管理社区传染病的态度,同时也能提高其诊治能力。今后医学继续教育的方向应着重对新发传染病、新医学概念的培训,就社区培训的必要性及培训效果问题邀请相关专家进行了点评。

Social Determinants of Social Zapping:Exploring Predictors of Planned Scheduled Social Events with Others

Social zapping has gained popularity as a term that refers to canceling plans or appointments at the last minute to attend other,supposedly more appealing events.This behavior resembles rapidly switching channels on a television,as individuals frequently jump between different social engagements.The present study examined potential behavioral trait predictors of social zapping,such as belongingness,self-esteem,sense of control,and meaningful existence among community residents ranging from 40 to 75 years of age(n=48).The study utilized simple linear regressions to identify potential predictors of social zapping,exploring how the four fundamental needs(belongingness,self-esteem,sense of control,and meaningful existence)might be linked.Results indicated that belongingness and self-esteem are significant predictors of social zapping tendencies.Additionally,an independent samples t-test was conducted to determine the relationship both older and younger adults have with the four fundamental needs as well as the role age plays in social zapping tendencies.Older adults exhibited a significant and more positive association with self-esteem,sense of control,and meaningful existence compared to individuals aged 39 and younger.Social zapping frequency was nonsignificant for both older adults and younger adults.Furthermore,a separate set of linear regression analyses were completed to determine how social desirability affects social zapping across age groups.Social desirability significantly predicted both self-esteem and meaningful existence.Overall,the present study builds on what is currently a new phenomenon in research and will provide new information on the relationship between age,social zapping,and behavioral traits.

互联网沟通与股价崩盘风险

本文采用2010年第1季度-2015年第3季度深交所上市公司作为研究对象,对"互动易"问答平台上企业与投资者沟通的内容与股价崩盘风险之间的关系进行了研究,具体而言,研究投资者提问以及董秘回复的负面语气是否能够降低相应公司股价崩盘风险。研究发现:首先,投资者提问的负面语气能够显著降低公司的股价崩盘风险,董秘回复的负面语气则与股价崩盘风险不相关。其次,机构投资者持股比例较高或持股户数较多的股票,公司股价崩盘风险与投资者提问的负面语气之间的负向关系更强。此外,进一步的分析表明,投资者提问的语气越负面,机构投资者下期的持仓越小,越倾向于卖出股票,且投资者提问的负面语气能够显著地降低信息不对称;投资者正面语气与股价崩盘风险之间不存在显著的相关性。本文为管理层与投资者信息交流机制方面的研究以及股价崩盘风险方面的文献提供了有益的补充。

Online Learning Approaches in Maximizing Weighted Throughput in an Unreliable Channel

We design online algorithms to schedule unit-length packets with values and deadlines through an unreliable communication channel. In this model, time is discrete. Packets arrive over time; each packet has a non-negative value and an integer deadline. In each time step, at most one packet can be sent. The ratio of successfully delivering a packet depends on the channel＇s quality of reliability. The objective is to maximize the total value gained by delivering packets no later than their respective deadlines. In this paper, we conduct theoretical and empirical studies of online learning approaches for this model and a few of its variants. These online learning algorithms are analyzed in terms of external regret. We conclude that no online learning algorithms have constant regrets. Our online learning algorithms outperform online competitive algorithms in terms of algorithmic simplicity and running complexity. In general, these online learning algorithms work no worse than the best known competitive online algorithm for maximizing weighted throughput in practice.

Risk Management in On-Line Banking

In the context of goal setting, the more difficult the goal, given feedback on performance, the more focused is individuals’ attention and persistence to accomplish the goal and in turn, their performance is also improved. Similarly, when the goal is multi-complex and performance time constraint, the deployment of specific strategies maybe the best approach developed. In effect of the above, this investigation takes a socio-psychological and organizational perspective in setting information systems (IS) security goals. In doing so, three important issues of goal setting are identified, these are: trust, culture and risk communication. Since system security breaches are still on the rise, the performance of managing such online risks is not the one expected. The framework suggested in this paper aims to contribute to socio-psychological and organizational values by enhancing the performance of the IS risk management process with a focus on security risks.

Relational Leadership:Promoting Lifelong Service and Meaningful Learning

Perpetual Professor： Changing Patterns of Faculty-Student Interaction in the Twenty-First Century

Current communication technologies have provided new modalities for students to contact professors outside of the normal office settings and regulated office hours traditionally found in higher education. This study concentrates on the faculty perceptions of how the usage of e-mail and cell phones has changed interactions with students over the past decade. General levels of usage are analyzed as well as correlation to curricular disciplines, An online survey of faculty members at Indiana University of Pennsylvania found maior changes in the type and frequency of contact between professors and students as well as a shift from personal contact to e-mail and telephone usage. The expanded level of communication opportunities has placed faculty in the position of having to extend direct student-oriented time outside of the classroom, while continuing to maintain academic scholarship and other professional responsibilities.

Men with prostate cancer and the accessibility to information—a literature review

Objective: To explore possible consequences of short stays in hospitals, as these short contacts reduce the patients’ time for information and support. Method: A literature survey was carried out to get an insight in possible consequences by summarizing the state of knowledge on how men with prostate cancer undergoing prostatec-tomy surgery experience their contacts with the healthcare professionals. Results: A consequence is that often men with prostate cancer, treated with prostatectomy surgery, do not receive the individualized support, infor-mation, and dialogue they need, which leads to feelings of uncertainty, insecurity, and loss of control. The men use the Internet in their search for information and support, which makes them able to stay in control and be active, responsible partners in their own course of treatment. Conclusion: For men to feel secure and certain the accessibility of the healthcare professionals and the healthcare professionals’ ability to individualize information and support are important aspects. Practice Implications: It is relevant to provide male cancer patients with tools that can underpin their contact to the healthcare professionals. Utilizing Web 2.0 technologies, Internet based tools can support exchange-ability, towards dialogue-based contacts, between men with prostate cancer and healthcare professionals.

Interactive information disclosure and non-penalty regulatory review risk

Using monthly data from the Shenzhen Stock Exchange's‘Hudongyi’platform and comment letters from December 2014 to December 2018,this study investigates the influence of interactive information disclosure on non-penalty regulatory review risk.The findings reveal that the richness and activeness of interactive information disclosure are positively associated with regulatory review risk.Moreover,the non-penalty regulatory review is effective as it significantly reduces the probability of receiving a comment letter in the subsequent three periods.The timeliness of interactive information disclosure is negatively associated with regulatory review risks.Additionally,we find that newspaper media coverage partially mediates the relationship between interactive information disclosure and regulatory review risk.For companies with low levels of internal governance,in low-competitive industries,and state-owned companies,the positive relationship between the number of investor questions and regulatory review risk is strengthened.These findings enrich the literature on the determinants of regulatory review risk and the economic consequences of interactive information disclosure in emerging markets.

Digital tildes ("~") may convey more: analyzing innovative uses of tildes in Chinese WeChat messages

Innovative uses of punctuation in online communication have become increasingly visible in research and public awareness since the 2000s,whereas studies on the innovative use of tildes("~")in digital use remain scarce.Drawing on a data set of 543 Chinese WeChat messages with sentence-final tildes,this article investigates the uses and functions of innovative tildes in online communication using quantitative data and follow-up interviews.The findings suggest that:(1)The innovative tildes are deployed in messages implying sounds and performing speech acts in online communication,and they are more frequently used in speech acts(e.g.,expressives and directives in particular).(2)The innovative tildes convey sound extension,ie.,to compensate for the loss of audio information in online communication and reproduce elongated sounds;pragmatic function,i.e.,to enhance or mitigate the illocutionary forces of speech acts;and entertaining function,i.e.,to make messages informal,vivid,joyful,and interesting.(3)The innovative tildes are pragmalicalized as a result of their semiotic features and politeness motivation of messengers for maintaining rapport and achieving successful online communication.
