Robust general equilibrium under stochastic volatility model

This paper studies the implications of model uncertainty under stochastic volatility model for equilibrium asset pricing. We derive the equilibrium equity premium and risk-free rate in a pureexchange economy with one representative agent who is averse not only to risk but also to model uncertainty. The results show that robustness increases the equilibrium equity premium while lowers the risk-f...

Economic Assessment of Carbon Tax policy: Applied Computable General Equilibrium Model

Unbalanced use of fossil fuels has made the environmental crisis as major challenge for governments. In the same methods, international and domestic institutions have designed and implemented various policies and plans to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, which are the cause of environmental pollution. One of the successful policies to reduce emissions is carbon tax policy. Considering the envir...

I-5: Semen Analysis - Clinical Laboratories; Is Standardization Applied?

Reduced semen quality is commonly claimed to be one of the main signs of male infertility and thus, analysis of semen is recommended as the cornerstone of a male fertility investigation. However, to control possible sources of physiological and methodological variation, and to generate reliable information on semen quality that can be accurately compared across different laboratories, semen ana...
