An Exploration on the Value Appeal and Practice Path of University Governance Under the Context of Good Governance
Good governance is a crucial concept in the field of economic and social management. In recent years, it has been increasingly used in the country’s public organization governance, and according to it to explore the governance path of the public sector. University is a knowledge-based public organization. The proposal of university good governance derived from social good governance and state good governance. This article holds that under the context of good governance, the university governance takes justice and efficiency as its value choice. Its legitimacy, rule of law, transparency and other practical appeals will help to promote running a school fairly. At the same time, its accountability, responsiveness and inclusiveness is also important to ensure the generation of efficiency. Based on this, the article further proposes the path to achieve university good governance. That is to build modern university system, strengthen information disclosure, set up dialogue platform, and improve the corporate governance structure and so on

The Philosophy Teaching Assessment System and Its Enlightenments of British Universities
As a basic element of the university teaching quality monitoring, teaching assessment has become an indispensable part of university teaching management. Only by ensuring its effectiveness can teach assessment promote university teaching quality. As a basic discipline in the UK higher education, philosophy is the investigation of those very general and fundamental questions which are about about knowledge, reality, mind, morality, logic, language, reasoning, politics art, and value, and these question have drawn attention, The University of Oxford and University of Cambridge are the two most well-known university which are called the “crown” of UK higher education. This paper mainly takes Oxford and Cambridge as the cases of study, which is based on the two external and internal quality assurance systems of UK higher education, The study sums up the commonalities and particularities of standards for the philosophy teaching assessment of the two British universities and analyzes the organization and implementation, aiming to obtain a deeper understanding of it, and points out its enlightenments for the quality assessment of higher education in China.
A Study on the Curriculum Setting and Characteristics of the Undergraduate Philosophy Major at Oxford University
The philosophy faculty at Oxford University is ancient and stately, with profound cultural background and a good tradition of philosophical concept of education and training target, which influences the philosophical education in Britain and even in the whole world. By cultivating the students’ ability of reading, logical thinking and critical thinking, it encourages students to correctly understand the world and use the knowledge effectively to solve various practical problems. This article tries to sort out the development of undergraduates’ education of philosophy at Oxford University, to analyze the curriculum setting of philosophy in the latest ten years, and to summarize the characteristics of philosophy education
Super-Size Me: An Unsuccessful Preregistered Replication of the Effect of Product Size on Status Signaling
Dubois, Rucker, and Galinsky (2012, Experiment 1) found that consumers view larger-size options as a signal of higher status. We conducted a close replication of this finding (N = 415), and observed a nonsignificant effect in the opposite direction (small vs. large product size: doriginal = 1.49, 95%CI [1.09, 1.89], dreplication = 0.09 95%CI [-0.15, 0.33]; medium vs. large: doriginal = 0.89 95%CI [0.52, 1.26], dreplication = 0.11 95%CI [-0.13, 0.34]; small vs. medium: doriginal = 0.62 95%CI [0.26, 0.98], dreplication = -0.01 95%CI [-0.25, 0.23]). We discuss potential reasons for this unsuccessful replication as well as implications for the status-signaling literature in consumer psychology
A probabilistic linguistic thermodynamic method based on the water-filling algorithm and regret theory for emergency decision making
Since thermodynamics can describe the energy of matter and its
form of storage or transformation in the system, it is introduced
to resolve the uncertain decision-making problems. The paper
proposes the thermodynamic decision-making method which
considers both the quantity and quality of the probabilistic linguistic
decision information. The analogies for thermodynamical
indicators: energy, exergy and entropy are developed under the
probabilistic linguistic circumstance. The probabilistic linguistic
thermodynamic method combines the regret theory which captures
decision makers’ regret-aversion and the objective weight of
criterion obtained by the water-filling algorithm. The proposed
method is applied to select the optimal solution to respond to
the floods in Chongqing, China. The self-comparison is conducted
to verify the effectiveness of the objective weight obtained by
the water-filling algorithm and regret theory in the probabilistic
linguistic thermodynamic method. The reliability and feasibility of
the proposed method are verified by comparative analysis with
other decision-making methods by some simulation experiments
and non-parametric tests
