The purpose of this research was to explain the relationship between the personality of brands with risk aversion and customer loyalty. This research was applied in terms of purpose, descriptive correlation one in terms of information gathering and based on structural equation modeling. The statistical population consisted of all customers with credible brands (5 famous and high-income brands s...

Of a randomly selected sample of 214 patients treated with aversion therapy for cocaine dependence in four chemical dependency units operated by Schick Shadel Hospitals, 156 were followed up 12 to 20 months posttreatment (average 15.2 months). Significant other validation was obtained in 33%. Total abstinence from cocaine for the group overall was 53% at one year post treatment, and current abs...

Students in my Basic Electronic Design course had a difficult time distinguishing between the graphical representations of e and (1e). They had no gut feeling for either term; they didn’t really know that the first decreases with time asymptotically to zero, but the second increases with time asymptotically to 1. These are very basic functions to electronics, chemistry, physics, and biology, an...

The present study was designed to investigate the disadvantageous and advantageous inequity aversion of young older adults in situations which allowed them maximize or minimize payoff inequalities. Given very limited evidence regarding an actual age-related effect on aversion, purpose this examine question using economic game, “the Give-and-Take Game”, is able circumvent certain limitations Ult...

For the standard specification of the utilitarian optimal income tax problem with hidden characteristics, the paper shows that randomized tax schemes are undesirable if preferences exhibit a property of weakly decreasing risk aversion according to the multidimensional risk aversion concept of Hellwig (2004). The property of decreasing risk aversion also implies uniqueness of the optimal income ...

The paper introduces a new notion of risk aversion that is independent of the good under observation and its measure scale. The representational framework builds on a time consistent combination of additive separability on certain consumption paths and the von Neumann & Morgenstern (1944) assumptions. In the one-commodity special case, the new notion of risk aversion closely relates to a disent...
