Longevity, Health, and Housing Risk Management in Retirement
ABSTRACT Annuities, long‐term care insurance, and reverse mortgages remain puzzlingly unpopular to manage post‐retirement longevity, health, and housing price risks. We use a flexible life‐cycle model structurally estimated with a unique stated‐preference survey experiment of Canadian households to understand why. Key factors include high risk aversion,

Assessment fairness at the nexus of validity: Linking fairness threats to score meaning
Abstract Introduction Nearly a century after Kelley's seminal work Interpretation of educational measurements, we revisit the concept of validity to argue that fairness is not a downstream equity add‐on but a core requirement throughout the assessment lifecycle.

Assessing the Effectiveness of Workers' Selection Exams: The Case of the Bank of Italy
ABSTRACT High‐stakes exams can be used to rank and select candidates for job openings, and the ability of those selected hinges on the design of the exam. I propose a method to model candidates' performance to assess how effective the exam is at selecting high‐ability candidates.

ABSTRACT Lichen planus pemphigoides (LPP) is a rare autoimmune subepidermal blistering disorder that combines lichenoid lesions of lichen planus with immunopathologic features of pemphigoid disease. We report an 8‐year‐old boy with homozygous sickle cell disease and severe atopic dermatitis who developed diffuse pruritic violaceous papules followed by ...

Optimal Export Taxes in Global Value Chain
ABSTRACT The determinants and optimality of implemented export taxes have long been understudied. In this work, I analyze how a country's optimal export taxes on products are influenced by their usage as inputs in traded final products. I decompose the influence of input–output linkages in the Global Value Chain (GVC) on optimal export policy into ...

Means‐Tested Public Transportation Subsidies: Causal Evidence and Implications
ABSTRACT This paper evaluates the effects of a novel and large‐scale program in King County, Washington, that provides fare‐free public transportation to individuals with low incomes. Using both experimental and quasi‐experimental methods together with rich administrative and survey data, we find that providing free transit has very limited effects on ...

Predicting soil phosphorus uptake: Evaluating low‐cost chemical alternatives to DGT technology
Abstract Soil phosphorus tests quantify specific fractions but fail to capture P kinetics that govern plant availability. Diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) technology offers a dynamic measure of P mobilization, outperforming conventional extractions in predicting soil P supply.
