Is the Quantity - Quality Trade - off a
Is the Quantity-Quality Trade-off a Trade-off for All, None, or Some? Although the theoretical trade-off between the quantity and quality of children is wellestablished, empirical evidence supporting such a causal relationship − particularly on child health − is limited. We use two measures of child health to asses the quantity-quality tradeoff across the entire distribution. Using data from th...
متن کاملIs seizure frequency variance a predictable quantity?
Background There is currently no formal method for predicting the range expected in an individual's seizure counts. Having access to such a prediction would be of benefit for developing more efficient clinical trials, but also for improving clinical care in the outpatient setting. Methods Using three independently collected patient diary datasets, we explored the predictability of seizure fre...
متن کاملCasimir Buoyancy
We study the Casimir force on a single surface immersed in an inhomoge-neous medium. Specifically we study the vacuum fluctuations of a scalar field with a spatially varying squared mass, m 2 + λ∆(x − a) + V (x), where V is a smooth potential and ∆(x) is a unit-area function sharply peaked around x = 0. ∆(x − a) represents a semi-penetrable thin plate placed at x = a. In the limits {∆(x−a) → δ(...
متن کاملIs Hungarian Losing the Vowel Quantity Distinction?
The Hungarian vowel system is traditionally regarded as quantity-based. In such languages, length is primarily realised as a durational difference with little or no distinction in vowel quality. In this paper, we argue that the various types of interrelationship between quantity and quality have an impact on the target configuration of short and long vowels, and that quantity distinction is not...
متن کاملIs the Quantity of Debt a Constraint on Monetary Policy?
Monetary authorities have often voiced their concerns about a high debt level that could potentially restrain their ability to control the short-term interest rate as an instrument of monetary policy. However, monetary policy rules in the literature do not account for such constraints. This paper derives an augmented interest rate rule in which the response of the interest rate to expected infl...
