We develop a two-region model where the decentralized provision of spillover goods can be financed by means of taxes or user fees. In order to enforce the fees regions have to invest in exclusion. We show that a decentralized solution tends to be inefficient. There will be over-investment in exclusion and an underprovision of the spillover goods compared to a centralized solution. In addition t...

This study examines the link between negative work-family spillover and metabolic risk factors over a 9-year period. Data from two waves of the Midlife in the United States Survey were used to explore relationships between negative work-family spillover and four indicators of metabolic syndrome-blood pressure, triglycerides, body mass index, and glucose levels. In a sample of full-time working ...

In this paper, we present a theory of health investment when there are multiple causes of death. We analyze the optimal investment rules and the comparative statics. In particular, we examine the conditions under which a cause-specific intervention has a spillover effect. By spillover effect, we mean a price reduction in one cause-specific health investment would increase all other investments....

With the advent of disruptive technologies, blockchain is considered to be most prominent technology that has potential have a significant influence on knowledge management field, particularly sharing, transfer and spillover. This paper outlines development validation Knowledge Spillover through Tourism Blockchain Questionnaire, TBlockQ. The purpose this questionnaire acknowledge key factors al...

Using panel data on investment of firms in energy saving technology, we measure the impact of the payback period of the technology on the probability to adopt the technology in the absence of tax and subsidy incentives. We find that the decision rules to adopt energy saving technology differs substantially between different types of firms, i.e. for-profit/notfor-profit as the decision to adopt ...

return and volatility spillovers are important for portfolio selection, asset valuation and market efficiency investigation. using a var-bekk framework model, this paper investigates return and volatility spillover effects between three size-sorted equity indices in tehran stock exchange (tse). although daily return of large stocks leads small stocks (lead-lag effect), there wasn’t any spillove...

ABSTRACT This study explores the short-run spillover effects of popular research papers. We consider the publicity of 'Male Organ and Economic Growth: Does Size Matter?' as an exogenous shock to economics discussion paper demand, a natural experiment of a sort. In particular, we analyze how the very substantial visibility influenced the downloads of Helsinki Center of Economic Research discussi...

This paper demonstrates that investor irrationality can be contagious across markets. Studies addressing the pros and cons of opening derivatives markets have failed to pay sufficient attention to the roles of speculative activities. This paper investigates how trading activities that are unrelated to fundamentals affect the impact of derivatives on stock markets. By using unique data from the ...

Edge effects in fragmented natural habitats may De exaceroateci by intensive land use in the surrounding landscape. Given that most managed systems have higher primary productivity than adjacent natural systems, theory suggests that bottom-up subsidized consumers are likely to spill over from managed to natural habitats. Furthermore, the magnitude of spillover is likely to differ between genera...

Model updating concerns the modification of an existing but inaccurate model with measured data. For models characterized by quadratic pencils, themeasured data usually involve incomplete knowledge of natural frequencies, mode shapes, or other spectral information. In conducting the updating, it is often desirable tomatch only the part of observed data without tampering with the other part of u...
