Measuring Upward Mobility
This paper develops a mobility measure that combines desirable features of the relative and absolute approaches to measuring mobility. From the relative approach we borrow the idea that income growth accruing to the relatively poor is more to be valued than income growth to the relatively rich. From the absolute approach we take the idea that upward changes are to be valued, in and of themselve...
متن کاملThe Health Mobility Is All True Mobility?; Comment on “Regional Incentives and Patient Cross-border Mobility: Evidence From the Italian Experience”
In their study, Brenna and Spandonaro analyzed the mobility into Italian regions. In particular, it analyzes the situation of 5 regions, with very different backgrounds. With this paper, we try to better define the meaning of health mobility and to find its underlying causes. Furthermore, we propose a strategy that could help in controlling mobility flows that currently are the source of health...
متن کاملState Capacity, Capital Mobility, and Tax Competition
Abstract The theory of international tax competition suggests that governments attempt to attract mobile capital bases by undercutting the foreign capital tax rate. An analysis of the role that state capacity plays in tax policymaking under international pressures is, however, missing. The central contribution of our study is to highlight the importance of the interaction between state capaci...
متن کاملMeasurement of spinal mobility.
In the assessment of deterioration or improvement in spinal stiffness it is important to have a measure of spinal range of movement which is reproducible, little subject to observer error, and takes only a short time to perform. In a study ofpatients with ankylosing spondylitis by one of us (FDH), which has continued since 1946, measurements by existing techniques were at first unsatisfactory a...
متن کاملIon mobility spectrometry: a review. Part 1. Structural analysis by mobility measurement
Ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) is an electrophoretic technique that allows ionised analyte molecules to be separated on the basis of their mobilities in the gas phase. The technique has found widespread application as a detector, most noticeably for chemical warfare agents on the battlefield and for explosives and narcotics at ports and airports. The application of IMS to structural studies of...
