The Effect of the Interaction Between Price and Time Preference on Cigarette Consumption
International Studies of Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The primary focus of this essay is to obtain new estimates of the price sensitivity of cigarette consumption and related outcomes using the 1979 cohort of the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY79). This work expands on the existing literature on the topic by taking into account measures of time preference in the NLSY79 to examine ...

Journal of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association, EarlyView.Abstract The USDA Agricultural Marketing Service has invested in direct‐to‐consumer initiatives to expand local food consumption and enhance farmers market opportunities. To evaluate the effectiveness of these efforts, this study employs a sample‐selected ordered probit model to analyze consumer perceptions of farmers market performance across four ...

The Determinants of Church Attendance and Religious Human Capital in Germany: Evidence from Panel Data [PDF]
This paper explores determinants of church attendance and the formation of 'religious human capital' in Germany within a Becker-style allocation-of-time framework. The analysis is based on data derived from the German Socio-Economic Panel (GSOEP). Taking

Subjective Well-Being and the Family: Results from an Ordered Probit Model with Multiple Random Effects [PDF]
The previous literature on the determinants of individual well-being has failed to fully account for the interdependencies in well-being at the family level. This paper develops an ordered probit model with multiple random effects that allows to identify

Stop Using Limiting Stimuli as a Measure of Sensitivities of Energetic Materials
Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Accurately estimating the sensitivity of explosive materials is a potentially life‐saving task that requires standardised protocols across nations. One of the most widely applied procedures worldwide is the so‐called ‘1‐In‐6’ test from the United Nations (UN) Manual of Tests in Criteria, which estimates a ‘limiting stimulus’ for a material. In

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.SYN‐A, a naturally derived synergist, inhibited key metabolic pathways associated with pyrethroid insecticide resistance in cabbage stem flea beetle (CSFB) and its parasitoid Microctonus brassicae. SYN‐A restored pyrethroid efficacy against resistant CSFB allowing up to 80% reduction in application rates.

Correcting the bias in the estimation of a dynamic ordered probit with fixed effects of self-assessed health status [PDF]
, 2009 This paper considers the estimation of a dynamic ordered probit with fixed effects, with an application to self-assessed health status. The estimation of nonlinear panel data models with fixed effects by MLE is known to be biased when T is not very large.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Genotype‐by‐environment interaction shaped soybean seed stability under contrasting insecticide regimes. Seed longevity emerged as a stable, management‐relevant trait under pest pressure. High‐pressure, no‐insecticide conditions improved discrimination of tolerant genotypes for integrated pest management deployment.
