In recent years, the prices of city commercial housing are soaring, causing wide attention of public and fierce discussion about whether it is reasonable for the housing prices in China. This paper attempts to establish a method to measure housing price-rationalization. Firstly, the paper establishes rationalization evaluation system of housing price from commercial housing price formation, res...

Most of the literature on healthcare digitalization is focused on the benefits, the barriers and the determinants of the adoption of ICT‐based solutions within hospitals. Little is understood about how hospital digitalization can be accomplished or how this digitalization fosters an increase in hospital performance — both in terms of quality improvement and cost rat...

We analyze a panel of 230 Canadian manufacturing industries to investigate whether trade liberalization promotes efficiency through increased scale. During the six years following the Free Trade Agreement with the United States, Canadian manufacturing exhibited substantial rationalization – a decline in the number of plants accompanied by increases in output per plant. We find that the bilatera...

We present calculations at the relativistic coupled cluster theory that predict the (1)Sigma(0) (+) ground state of CUO to lie 58.2 kJ/mol below the first excited state, (3)Phi(2). This can be contrasted with the outcome of earlier density functional theory and complete active space second order perturbation theory (CASPT2) calculations that both predicted a (3)Phi(2) ground state upon inclusio...

Concepts of biocompatibility have changed radically in recent years. This paper describes these new concepts and the present knowledge of the components and mediators of biocompatibility and leads to the development of a model for the explanation and rationalization of these phenomena. Of particular importance is the question of the assessment or evaluation of biocompatibility. The paper conclu...

We introduce a “reason-based” way of rationalizing an agent’s choice behaviour, which explains choices by specifying which properties of the options or choice context the agent cares about (the “motivationally salient properties”) and how he or she cares about these properties (the “fundamental preference relation”). Reason-based rationalizations can explain non-classical choice behaviour, incl...
