TRADE-OFFS BETWEEN EPISTEMIC AND MORAL VALUES IN EVIDENCE-BASED POLICY

Some Evidence on Trade-offs and Sorting

Wages or Fringes? Some Evidence on Trade-offs and Sorting The two key predictions of hedonic wage theory are that there is a trade-off between wages and nonmonetary rewards and that the latter can be used as a sorting device by firms to attract and retain the kind of employees they desire. Empirical analysis of these topics are scarce as they require detailed data on all monetary as well as non...

Trade-offs between speed and endurance

expanding discipline of evolutionary physiology is a more detailed understanding of the role of physiological constraints in evolution (Garland and Carter, 1994; Feder et al., 2000). Physiological constraints can arise when an organism has to perform multiple tasks that place conflicting demands on its physiological design: an increase in the performance of one task may lead to a decrease in th...

Trade-Offs between Yield and Reliability Enhancement *

Deep sub-micron VLSI technologies have led to a large increase in the number of devices per die as well as the switching speeds. These advances have been accompanied by increased design complexity and decreasing reliability. Scaling of the device dimensions has introduced “analog” effects on-chip that he causing signal integrity and delay problems. These problems are not easy to estimate and re...

Trade-offs between pathogen and herbivore resistance.

During the past year genetic and pharmacological experiments have revealed a molecular basis for the cross-talk between signaling pathways mediating pathogen and herbivore resistance. These findings provide considerable insight into the apparently contradictory results reported for trade-offs between pathogen and herbivore resistance.
