论《水浒传》中的性格类绰号

明代长篇小说《水浒传》中宋江等３６人的事迹，于《宋史》、《宋家僭乱诸寇》、《东都事略》等书中已有记载，在元人杂剧也出现“水浒戏”。但直至元末明初，施耐庵才完整地编写成一部系统的长篇小说。《水浒传》属古代英雄传奇小说［１］，叙述以宋江、卢俊义为首的１０...

音乐美的特殊性——论实验派美学家的音乐美

一切艺术都是抒情的表现,都是内容和形式婚媾后所产的宠儿。有内容而无形式则粗疏,有形式而无内容则空洞。音乐自然也不能跳开这个公例,离开情感单靠形式而存在。专在形式上下功夫而不能表现任何情感的音乐究非上品,专在内容上下功夫而没有完美的形式,亦究非上品。真正美的音乐两者均不可偏废。本文从实验派美学家的生动实验来论证上述观点,得到了一个较满意的答案。

Graft Compatibility of Scotch Bonnet （Capsicum chinense Jacq） with Selected Salt-Tolerant Solanaceous

In recent years, grafting to improve salt-tolerance of vegetables has been studied extensively. The rootstock species, Solanum melongena cv Black Beauty, Solanum lycopersicum cv Akash and Solanum nigrum （bitter gumma）, reportedly salt-tolerant, were evaluated for their graft compatibility with Capsicum chinense cv Scotch Bonnet. Grafted and non-grafted plants were grown for three weeks under greenhouse conditions. Graft compatibility was determined by the regeneration of vascular bundles across the graft interface and vegetative growth parameters. The results showed that the highest survival percentage （100%） was obtained in the Scotch Bonnet/Black Beauty heterografts and the lowest （16%） was obtained in the Scotch Bonnet/bitter gumma heterografts. Vascular regeneration across the graft interface was seen in Scotch Bonnet autografts and heterografts with Black Beauty. Graft incompatibility observed in heterografts on Akash and bitter gumma rootstocks could be attributed to the presence of a necrotic layer at the graft interface. In conclusion, progressive scion growth and development and the regeneration of vascular bundles across the graft interface are effective in determining graft compatibility between Scotch Bonnet and selected solanceous species. This suggests that Scotch Bonnet can be cultivated under saline growing condition.

Can the Dominant Trait Indicator Predict Success in a Financial Accounting Principles Course？ A Preliminary Look

The Myers Briggs Type Indicator （MBTI） test has been widely used in schools and career placement organizations to counsel individuals into compatible career choices. The test has also been utilized in academia to enhance instructor＇s knowledge of the different learning styles and thus allows them to develop strategies to increase students＇ learning. The test is a forced-choice self-reporting exam comprised of 126 questions. Based on Jung＇s theory of personality type, the test seeks to categorize personality types into 16 discrete groups based on the four preference poles （Myers, 1962）. The poles are based on the preference for： （1） introversion （I） or extroversion （E）; （2） sensing （S） or intuition （N）; （3） thinking （T） or feeling （F）; and （4）judging （J） or perception （P）. Laribee （1994） studied American accounting students and found that certain personality traits were over represented in upper-level accounting courses, while Macdaid, McCaulley, and Kainz （1986） found that the same personality trait groups were over-represented in the profession. Oswick and Barber （1998）, however, found no significant relationship between the grade earned in an introductory accounting course and the personality traits as identified by the MBTI with 344 UK-based accounting students. This study investigates the relationship between a student＇s academic success in a financial accounting principles course and the MBTI personality type indicators. The type distribution of 59 historically black colleges and universities＇ （HBCU） business administration majors was analyzed and separated into two groups. The groups were then tested to determine if there was a significant difference in the mean grade of the groups in accounting principles.

Morphological and Structural Categories： Geometric Attributes of the Form of Places

The author knows how to interpret the city is a complex task that met the physical form and also all the images that are transmitted by the sensations. However the aim of this paper is to demonstrate the importance of studying the morphological categories, using the geometric attributes of the shape of places, facilitating the development of three-dimensional view of the architects, in particular for students of architecture. This article is part of the Project ＂Education of the Eye＂ which introduces the training of the eye as a strategy to understand the architectural forms characterizing the volumetric space （architectural, urban and landscaping）, through the polyhedra and their relationships. It is linked to the research line Teaching of Architecture Graduate Program in Architecture -- PROARQ-FAU/UFRJ. The investigation of the way in this direction, interacts with the knowledge produced by the groups SEL-RJ -- Research Group on Systems of Open Spaces in Rio de Janeiro, ProLUGAR -- Design and Quality of Place and EAG-Education-Environment Group.

Classification of Variational Conservation Laws of General Plane Symmetric Spacetimes

In this article we discuss Noether conservation laws admitted by a Lagrangian L = gab(dx^a/ds)(dx^b/ds)of a test particle moving in the field of a general plane symmetric non-static spacetime metric. In this context, we first present a general solution representing a Noether symmetry vector subject to differential constraints satisfied by the general plane symmetric non-static metric. We then use a class of plane symmetric non-static metrics obtained by Feroze et al. and discuss, in each case, Noether conservation laws in comparison with Killing symmetries.

Animal personalities and their implications for complex signaling

Animal personalities have been a major focus of behavioral ecology over the past decade. Consistent individual dif ferences in behavior have been found across taxa, and have been shown to influence a range of ecological processes. The role of personalities in sexual selection has been considered, and examples exist that show selection for personality traits with both assortative and disassortative mating patterns between personality types. One overlooked aspect of the personality and sexual se lection literature is the potential for personalitysignaling interactions, specifically with complex signaling. Complex signaling is a diverse topic in itself, and in short, consists of multiple signals within one or more modalities that interact to elicit a receiver response. Research into complex signaling has been thorough, although at times studies discover complex signaling systems that fail to fit into one of the existing hypotheses in the literature. Here, we argue that personalities may interact with complex signal ing, which should be considered by researchers of both personality and sexual selection and communication. We describe several ways in which personalitycomplex signaling interactions could affect both the signaler and receiver, and the way in which they may drive personalityspecific signals as well as receiver preferences. Finally, we discuss how considering personality in com plex signaling studies may inform theory as well as improve the ability of researchers to accurately describe its function.
