  • Risk Attitudes and Human Mobility During the COVID-19 Pandemic
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Risk attitudes and human mobility during the COVID‑19 pandemic Ho Fai Chan1,2*, Ahmed Skali3, David A. Savage2,4, David Stadelmann2,5,6,7 & Benno Torgler1,2,7 Behavioural responses to pandemics are less shaped by actual mortality or hospitalisation risks than they are by risk attitudes. We explore human mobility patterns as a measure of behavioural responses during the COVID‑19 pandemic. Our results indicate that risk‑taking attitudes are a critical factor in predicting reductions in human mobility and social confnement around the globe. We fnd that the sharp decline in mobility after the WHO (World Health Organization) declared COVID‑19 to be a pandemic can be attributed to risk attitudes. Our results suggest that regions with risk‑averse attitudes are more likely to adjust their behavioural activity in response to the declaration of a pandemic even before ofcial government lockdowns. Further understanding of the basis of responses to epidemics, e.g., precautionary behaviour, will help improve the containment of the spread of the virus. In Tackeray’s novel Henry Esmond, for instance, this dread informs the narrative. Te heroine, Lady Castlewood, contracts the disease as an adult. Her husband had been a brave soldier in combat, but he was unable to face a malady that he could not fght and that threatened him not only with death, but also with disfgurement. Unwilling to put his pink complexion and his fair hair at risk, Lord Castlewood took to his heels and deserted his household for the duration of the outbreak. But he was not part of a mass exodus, even though Henry Esmond declares that smallpox was “that dreadful scourge of the world” and a “withering blight” and “pestilence” that “would enter a village and destroy half its inhabitants.” Snowden (2019, p.

  • Plant-Level Nonconvexities and the Transmission of Monetary Policy
    Plant-Level Nonconvexities and the Transmission of Monetary Policy JOB MARKET PAPER Roman Sustek· ¤ Carnegie Mellon University January 19, 2005 Abstract Existing models of the transmission mechanism of monetary policy (TMMP) assume that production units have access to a smooth aggregate production func- tion. Micro-level empirical evidence, however, suggests that production plants adjust output by utilizing capital along nonconvex margins. The objective of this paper is to determine whether such plant-level nonconvexities a®ect the trans- mission mechanism in a quantitatively signi¯cant way. To this end we replace the smooth aggregate production function in a prototypical model of the TMMP with heterogenous plants that adjust output along three nonconvex margins: in- termittent production, shiftwork, and weekend work. We calibrate the model such that steady-state utilization of these margins is in line with U.S. data. We ¯nd that the nonconvexities dampen the responses of aggregate economic activity and prices to monetary policy shocks by about 50 percent, relative to the standard model, thereby signi¯cantly reducing the e®ectiveness of the transmission mecha- nism. Due to heterogeneity and discrete choices at the plant level, monetary policy a®ects output decisions of only \marginal" plants; those close to being indi®erent between alternative production plans. In equilibrium the measure of such plants is rather small. In addition, the quantitative e®ects of monetary policy shocks on aggregate output do not signi¯cantly change with the degree of capital utilization over the business cycle. The e®ects on inflation, however, do change substantially over the business cycle when monetary policy shocks are persistent.

Pink © 2001 Executive Summaries Daniel Pink’s sociological study of the new independent worker, may prove to be an important sequel to William Whyte’s 1956 landmark study The Organizational Man. Pink proposes that the US [and Australia?] is in the middle of a transition as big as was leaving the farm for the factory. About 30 million talented professionals through to “perma- temps” have voluntarily, or otherwise, abandoned their Industrial Revolution job and become self-employed knowledge workers, freelancers, contractors, micro- preneurs, soloists, interim executives, home based business operators, [franchisees] … It is a well written book by US Vice President, Al Gore’s former speech writer, who spent a year travelling the US with his family researching this phenomenon. This work may help you discover a better career model for “blending” (not balancing) work and life, for earning while raising a family, for transitioning before fully retiring, or for Warner Business Books accomplishing all your Generation Y ambitions.
