    筆者以宜蘭淇武蘭遺址出土的裝飾性遺物作為研究對象,裝飾性遺物係指裝飾於人身上的器物。淇武蘭遺址年代序列屬於鐵器時代,依據層位與內容物可以區分為上下兩個文化層,下文化層在距今1300至800年前之間,上文化層則在600到100年前之間。其中,上文化層為筆者最主要的研究內容,且根據文獻記載可知為早期的噶瑪蘭族。 遺址中的裝飾品出土大量且種類繁多,其中絕大多數為瑪瑙、玻璃、金屬材質的外來飾品,骨、木、貝質飾品則相對較少,且應為自製。筆者同時關注時間與空間下的裝飾品分布以理解其使用方式,首先以型制功能區分裝飾品作為研究的基礎資料,接著分析比較不同的出土脈絡以呈現裝飾品在不同情境下的展現,並透過裝飾品與人骨間的關係分析配戴方式。在討論過程中同時與文獻資料進行相互印證,試圖從各個面向呈現出淇武蘭社會本身對於裝飾品的內在觀點。 結果顯示出淇武蘭社會中在西班牙、荷蘭人進入之前,早已存在一套對於裝飾品的認知概念與分類原則。裝飾普遍擁有財富、聲望的意涵,其中的瑪瑙珠、金屬鈴鐺似乎在喪葬行為中有其身分意味,同時瑪瑙珠也呈現出與其他裝飾品不同的特殊性,有傳世的可能,其餘飾品則是有價值上的程度差異。突顯出飾品種類雖多,但淇武蘭人確實有其分類與區辨原則,並將外來飾品與自製飾物組合使用,這些證據皆呈現出淇武蘭人本身的能動性與主觀意識。 最後,立基在淇武蘭人本身對於裝飾品的認知上,可以進一步理解十七世紀臺灣北部貿易網絡中人群的互動關係。遺址中的大量外來飾品不僅是外來勢力帶來的貿易興盛,其中更反映了不同人群間的交易需求。This thesis focuses on the personal ornaments which decorate the human bodies or clothing from the Ki-Wu-Lan Site in the I-lan Plain. The Ki-Wu-Lan Site provides excellent materials for discussing the role of the ornaments in the local culture. There are two culture layers of the site, the Upper Culture Layer is 600-100 B.P. and the Lower Culture Layer is 1300-800 B.P., all belong to the Iron Age. The ornaments from the Upper Layer Culture are my main research target. According to the ethnography and historical documents, the people of this period are Kavalan. There were large quantity and various ornaments excavated from this site. Most ornaments were exotic materials, which made of agate, glass and metal. However there are still a small part of bone, wood and shell ornaments which were made by local people. In this thesis, I focus on both temporal and spatial distribution of the ornaments in order to understand how people use them. Firstly, I classify the ornaments by there functions to establish the database, and then compare ornaments from different contexts for discussing the characters and the way of wearing, and the prevalence of decorations. Secondly, I crossly compare the archaeological materials and documents, trying to present the inner perspectives of ornaments from local people. It is concluded that the Ki-Wu-Lan society had their own cognition and rule of classification of ornaments before the 17th century, when the outside forces such as Spanish and Holland people came to Taiwan with lots of exotic goods. Not just for decorating, most ornaments have their prestige and property meanings. The agate beads and one kind of small bells even associated with women and children for identity, and the other ornaments also have their value meanings in this culture. Through rearranging the exotic ornaments with local materials, local people displayed their own agency. Finally, the view of the Ki-Wu-Lan society about ornaments can reveal the interaction and trade network in northern Taiwan. Large quantities of ornaments excavated from the site reflect not only the blooming business, which resulted from the outsiders, but also showed the inner exchange requirements among local ethnic groups

    傳統上,訂定灌溉用水水質標準時,是考量維護作物之健康安全。但重金屬是累積性的毒物,會藉由農地作物而進入食物鏈,危害人體健康。本研究以人類的健康為出發點來考量,以人類健康風險評估現有的標準並提出一些建議。因此假設了三種暴露情境:一般大眾、污染區居民、污染區農夫,並作一個案例分析。結果顯示,這三種暴露情境下,水質標準的項目有超過可接受的風險,所以有必要檢討水質的標準。而且在污染區的灌溉用水應該要另外規範。而案例分析的結果顯示,在符合政府各權責主管機關訂定的各種標準下,亦有可能對人體健康造成超過風險的影響。而上述推論結果與衛生署在彰化縣的人體血液、尿液調查結果相比趨勢吻合。本研究建議政府機關各單位在制訂各類標準時,宜考量人類健康風險評估之觀念,使法規標準之間更為相容。Traditionally, the irrigation water quality standard was established for the health and safety of crops. However, heavy metals may accumulate in the farmland then enter the food chain by the absorption of the crop and cause harm to human health. This study evaluates the current irrigation water quality standard in the view point of human health risk assessment. There are three hypothetical exposure scenarios in the study and a case study is analyzed. The three exposure scenarios are resident, resident in contaminated region, farmer in contaminated region, respectively. The result shows that As has exceed the acceptable risk in all three exposure scenarios, therefore the irrigation water quality standard must be reviewed and the standard of the As should be more strictly. The case study results coincided with the blood and urine test in Chang-Hwa area which suggests that human health risk assessment should be considered as to establish all kinds of standards.中文摘要 Ⅰ 英文摘要 Ⅱ 圖目錄 Ⅲ 表目錄 Ⅳ 符號說明 Ⅵ 第一章 前言 1-1 研究緣起 1 1-2 研究目的 5 第二章 文獻回顧 2-1 風險的概念 7 2-2 風險評估的發展史 7 2-3 風險評估的理論 9 2-4 風險評估的架構 11 2-4-1 危害鑑定 11 2-4-1-1 致癌性鑑定 12 2-4-1-2 非致癌性鑑定 13 2-4-1-3 危害鑑定的方法與步驟 14 2-4-2 劑量反應評估 15 2-4-2-1 劑量反應評估的原理 16 2-4-2-2 劑量反應評估的方法與步驟 17 2-4-2-3 非致癌劑量反應評估 18 2-4-2-4 致癌劑量反應評估 21 2-4-3 暴露評估 23 2-4-3-1 暴露評估的定義 23 2-4-3-2 暴露評估的估算原理 24 2-4-3-3 暴露評估的介質 26 2-4-3-4 暴露評估的主要途徑 27 2-4-4 風險鑑定 30 2-4-4-1 風險鑑定的定義 30 2-4-4-2 風險鑑定的方法 31 第三章 研究方法 3-1 危害鑑定 35 3-2 劑量反應評估 39 3-3 暴露評估 41 3-3-1 農業土地利用 42 3-3-1-1 蔬菜攝食暴露公式 44 3-3-1-2 水的暴露公式 46 3-3-1-3 土壤的暴露公式 47 3-3-2 暴露情境模擬 48 3-3-2-1 一般大眾 48 3-3-2-2 污染區居民 50 3-3-2-3 污染區農夫 51 3-4 風險鑑定 52 3-4-1 一般大眾 52 3-4-2 污染區居民 53 3-4-3 污染區農夫 53 第四章 結果與討論 4-1 研究結果 54 4-1-1 一般大眾 54 4-1-2 污染區居民 55 4-1-3 污染區農夫 56 4-2 討論 57 4-3 案例分析—彰化地區 59 4-4 訂定灌溉用水水質標準 65 第五章 結論與建議 5-1 結論 67 5-2 建議 68 參考文獻69 附錄一 灌溉用水水質項目中重金屬化學特性 74 附錄二 作物單位面積產量 7

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods
