The effects of incorporating a virtual agent in a computer-aided test designed for stress management education: The mediating role of enjoyment

Drawing upon the Entertainment–Education paradigm, this study evaluated the effectiveness of a computer-aided interactive test designed for stress management education targeting college students. The presence (vs. absence) of a virtual agent incorporated into the interactive test was proposed as the key factor that induces enjoyment and educational outcomes. The interactive test consisted of scenarios describing stressful situations that could occur in college students’ everyday lives. Furthermore, college students could relate the concerns raised by these hypothetical situations to the ways they manage their stress and mental health. After the student’s choice behavior in each scenario, a virtual agent conveyed health-related educational messages via a text-modal dialogue box. Participants who took the interactive test in which there was a virtual agent perceived the test as more educational and entertaining than those who took the test without a virtual agent. Results of a path analysis also revealed a significant mediating role of enjoyment on educational outcomes (i.e., students’ enjoyment of the interactive test mediated the effects of the presence of a virtual agent on their perceived educational value of health information), thus confirming the Entertainment–Education link. In addition, engaging in the interactive test resulted in stress management self-efficacy improvement. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.     

移动代理在网格计算中的研究

网格的异构性,动态性,导致移动代理在网格中使用时,代理和代理平台之间的安全策略变得很复杂,移动代理的路由算法也很难制定,许多现有的安全解决方案都不能满足需要,且为移动代理量身定做安全策略也不太现实。该文提出了用户角色映射和移动代理相结合的网格计算模型,根据资源的特征属性,在资源代理模块进行判断,动态的选择资源的使用方式。有效解决了在网格中引入移动代理所带来的安全问题,同时提高了网格计算的效率。

基于动态任务菜单的RBAC模型的设计与实现

针对RBAC模型存在的两大问题一访问权限粒度与角色规模的矛盾和角色被动、缺乏灵活的授权机制,提出基于动态任务菜单的RBAC-DTM_RBAC模型,引入动态菜单和任务的概念,通过对角色的静态约束和任务的动态权限管理,很好地克服了角色冗余的问题,减少角色规模,降低角色管理的复杂性,更好适应多级复杂权限系统的动态权限管理要求。     

扩展角色表达能力的描述逻辑

针对角色描述能力较弱的问题,在现有描述逻辑SHIQ中增加角色表达式对角色进行描述,形成描述逻辑SHIQb。给出SHIQb的相关定义,并证明若SHIQb知识库中所有角色表达式都是安全的,那么该知识库在现有的推理机KAON2上的推理仍然是Polynomia Time这一定理。在此基础上,提出一种能够判断角色表达式是否安全的算法。     

Even in virtual environments women shop and men build: A social role perspective on Second Life

The present study examined whether traditional gender role expectations (Eagly, 1987) influence behaviors in non-traditional contexts such as online virtual environments. Participants were 352 Second Life users who reported their activities and experiences in Second Life. Results indicated that men and women differed in the types of activities they engaged in a manner predicted by social role theory. Specifically, as compared to women, men were more likely to report building things (e.g. objects), to own and work on their own virtual property, and were less likely to change their avatar’s appearance. Women, as compared to men, were more likely to meet people, shop, regularly change their avatar’s appearance, and buy clothes/objects for their avatar. The present study adds to our understanding of how traditional gender role expectations may carry over to online virtual worlds and influence online behavior.     

面向跨组织业务流程的角色行为验证方法

为了更有效地保证跨组织业务流程模型的正确性和合理性,应用Pi演算提出了一种基于状态的角色行为的验证方法。基于Pi演算提出了跨组织业务协作中的角色模型,设计了角色描述表,以清晰、直观地描述角色的权利、职责和义务,进而应用Pi演算验证工具MWB(移动工作平台)的check和step命令提出了单角色验证方法,并在此基础上从业务对象状态和业务操作角度提出了多角色验证方法。实现了角色行为的验证,并为跨组织业务流程的可达性、一致性和死锁等分析奠定基础。
