won{gil park [won{gil park, j. math. anal. appl., 376 (1) (2011) 193{202] proved the hyers{ulam stability of the cauchy functional equation, the jensen functional equation and the quadraticfunctional equation in 2{banach spaces. one can easily see that all results of this paper are incorrect.hence the control functions in all theorems of this paper are not correct. in this paper, we correctthes...

Discrete choice models which relax the assumption that consumers consider all available options are known as consideration set models. The applied literature on consideration sets relies for identification on either auxiliary data on what options were considered or on instruments assumed to impact consideration probabilities or utility but not both. We show that a broad class of consideration s...

This paper addresses the issue of endogenizing the equilibrium solution when a private –domestic or foreign –…rm competes in the quantities with a public, welfare maximizing …rm. Theoretical literature on mixed oligopolies provides results and policy implications that crucially rely on the notion of equilibrium assumed, either sequential or simultaneous. In the framework of the endogenous timin...

Non-unitary Models of Household Behavior: A Survey of the Literature This article considers non-unitary models of household behavior. These models suppose explicitly that households consist of a number of different members with preferences that are different from each other. They can be split up into two principal categories: cooperative (or collective) models, in which the allocations are supp...

In this issue of the journal, authors from the Effective Health-Care Program of the Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality (AHRQ) outline their approach for appraising research evidence and providing ‘‘. understandable and actionable information for patients, clinicians, and policy makers’’ [1]. The methods outlined are not controversial, and it is clear that the program of work is of a high ...

Åke Blomqvist (2001) raises the issue of relevance in his review of my two papers (Nyman, 1999a,b). He agrees that because of the skewed distribution in health expenditures (which concentrates most of income transfers from health insurance in the hands of those few who become ill), income transfers explain a large portion of the additional consumption due to becoming insured. Nevertheless, he a...

A Public Good Version of the Collective Household Model: An Empirical Approach with an Application to British Household Data In this paper we consider an empirical collective household model of time allocation for twoearner households. The novelty of this paper is that we estimate a version of the collective household model, where the internally produced goods and the externally purchased goods...
