  • Study on the Economic Competitiveness
    6th International Conference on Management, Education, Information and Control (MEICI 2016) Study on the Economic Competitiveness Evaluation of Coastal Counties: Example as Liaoning Province Qiang Mao School of Management, Bohai University, Jinzhou 121013, China. [email protected] Keywords: Economic competitiveness; Competitiveness evaluation; Coastal counties Abstract. The competitiveness of coastal county is an important area of study on regional competitiveness, and evaluation study on county economy is important basis and foundation to improve the competitiveness of coastal county economy. Based on a brief description of literature review, a method based on stakeholders’ perspective is proposed to solve the competitiveness evaluation problem. In addition, the effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated by the example as Liaoning province. Finally, some countermeasures are proposed to promote coastal county economy according the evaluation result and characteristics. Introduction Due to convenient transportation conditions for international trade, coastal counties get prosperity for trading with the world and will be easy to form manufacturing bases for processing trade. Many scholars are attracted to the research of economic competitiveness evaluation for its widely application background. Liu(2013) established evaluation index system of county economy for Tangshan, and proposed a method for county economy evaluation based on factor analysis [1]. He(2014) designed evaluation index system based on the perspective of economy development demand in county level, and analyzed the supporting ability of science and technology in Anhui by means of analytic hierarchy process(AHP) [2].Above mentioned methods have each superiority, but evaluation results rely too much on experts’ preference. Evaluation objects are considered as passive objects in the above evaluation problems, while evaluation objects always have more complete evaluation information.

  • Geophysical, Cultural and Behavioral Differences Between High and Low Risk Areas of Gastric Cancer in Liaonin Province in China
    S-177 Geophysical, Cultural and Behavioral Differences between High and Low Risk Areas of Gastric Cancer in Liaonin Province in China Zhong-xing Sun1, Xi-wen Bail, Xiao-song Yu1, Kunio Aoki2, Yoshinori lto3, and Ryuichiro Sasaki4 1. China Medical University, Shenyang, China 2. Aichi Cancer Center, Nagoya, Japan 3. Fujita Health University, School of Medicine, Aichi, Japan 4. Nagoya University School of Medicine, Nagoya, Japan Geophysical and socio-medical backgrounds including dietary habits be- tween high risk and low risk areas of gastric cancer in Liaonin Province, China, were compared and analysed. Case-control study on psychobehav- ioral factors was carried out. The characteristics of high risk area was acid brown soil, drinking water with high nitrates, high rate of illiterates, unfavor- able eating behavior and frequent intake of salty foods and foods with mu- tagens. Psychobehavioral factors may associate with higher incidence of gastric cancer. Gastric cancer, High risk area, Geophysical factors, Diet, Psychobehavioral condition INTRODUCTION Marked differences in mortality rates of gastric cancer between counties in Liaonin Province were repeatedly reported before. We confirmed a significant regional differences in 43 counties of Liaonin Province, by examining age-adjusted death rates of stomach cancer in 1973-75(1).Geophysical and socio-medical backgrounds between a high risk area and a low risk were compared for studying contributing factors of gastric cancer, and a role of psychobehav- ioral factors associated with gastric cancer were examined. Two village were selected for comparison, one was Guanlu village, Zhuanghe county with high age-adjusted gastric cancer mortality of 59.1/105, and the control was Zhangtun village, Xinmin Province with a mortality of less than 10/105 in 1982-83.

Vocal effort and fatigue in virtual room acoustics. Pasquale Bottalico, Lady C. Cantor Cutiva, and Eric J. Hunter (Commu- nicative Sci. and Disord., Michigan State Univ., 1026 Red Cedar Rd., Lansing, MI 48910, [email protected]) Vocal effort is a physiological entity that accounts for changes in voice production as vocal loading increases, which can be quanti- fied in terms of Sound Pressure Level (SPL). It may have implications on potential vocal fatigue risk factors. This study investigates how vocal effort is affected by room acoustics. The changes in the acoustic conditions were artificially manipulated. Thirty-nine subjects were recorded while reading a text, 15 out of them used a conversational style while 24 were instructed to read as if they were in a class- room full of children. Each subject was asked to read in three different reverberation time RT (0.4 s, 0.8 s, and 1.2 s), in two noise condi- tions (background noise at 25 dBA and Babble noise at 61 dBA), in three different auditory feedback levels (-5 dB, 0 dB, and 5 dB), for a total of 18 tasks per subject presented in a random order.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Analysis of human living environmental quality of Shenyang-Dalian urban agglomerations has important theoretical and practical significance in rapid development region. A lot of investigations have been carried for Shenyang-Dalian urban agglomerations, including 38 counties. Based on the carrying capacity of resources, natural and socioeconomic environmental factors and regional changes of human living environmental evaluation are analyzed with the application of geographic information systems (GIS) software. By using principal component analysis (PCA) model and natural breaks classification (NBC) method, the evaluation results are divided into five categories. The results show thatuman theh living environmental evaluation (HLEE) indexes of Dalian, Shenyang, and Liaoyang are higher than other counties. Among these counties, the human living environmental evaluation (HLEE) indexes of coastal counties are significantly higher than inland counties. The range of the human living environmental evaluation index in most of the study area is at III, IV,and V levels, accounting for 80.01%.
