The main objective of present paper is to answer the question whether a UBI programme can be successful in a less favoured region of a transition country or not, and which are the main peculiarities that have to be considered when adapting the patterns of more developed regions. Raising the ...
The internalization of the social cost of carbon (SCC) is the most efficient alternative to reduce the emissions that cause global warming. However, the carbon pricing initiatives implemented in many countries differ significantly from the empirical estimates of the SCC. Therefore, this study simulate...
Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) is among the most unequal regions in the world in terms of wealth and household income. Such inequalities have been shown to influence different outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic, including the disruption of rout
In both tests, the null hypothesis is that cointegration does not exist. I implemented both tests for all models with non-stationary dependent variables and all p-values were less than 0.05. Therefore, based on the results of both tests, the null hypothesis is rejected, which means that a ...
To select covariates and capture possible nonlinear effects and complex interactions between them, an ensemble covariate modeling method was implemented60. For each region, three submodels were fitted to our dataset, using all of our covariate data as explanatory predictors: generalized additive models,...
This suggests that there may not be enough tests being carried out to properlymonitor the outbreak [25]. In contrast, countries such as Cape-Verde, Benin and Togo,which have recorded less than or equal to 50 positive cases per 1,000 tests, seem tobe effectively controlling the pandemic ...
Childhood malnutrition is associated with high morbidity and mortality globally1. Undernourished children are more likely to experience cognitive, physical, and metabolic developmental impairments that can lead to later cardiovascular disease, reduced in
It seems the Information Element 32 (power constraint) is part of 802.11h, I'm actually not sure if this is supported in ath9k by default, will have to check that. Maybe only ath10k radios support it due to TPC requirements on the outdoor / weather radar bands.☹️ ...
(that is, across successive cohorts) and is therefore more likely to pick up improvements to access and retention in education systems that have been made since 2000. Second, we illustrate the probability that this estimated ratio is credibly different from 1 (parity between sexes) given the ...
Given that in these simulations there was no intracluster correlation, such estimates would have been misleading if derived from an actual data set. Given the wide range of maternal mortality estimates of k over the sets of 500 simulation runs, we must be cautious in placing too much trust in...
