Perceptions of the Word “Healthy” on Moral Balancing and Licensing Patterns
This paper examines the complex relationship between the subjective FDA-regulated word healthy and its effect on consumers moral balancing and licensing habits. I create a survey to test the ability of the word healthy to balance or license future decisions. The results indicate that if the word healthy is on a package, regardless of nutritional quality, consumers use healthy to license unhealthy activities the next time period they are faced with a decision in the moral sphere of health. However, the balancing effect is lost after two time periods. The findings suggest that balancing and licensing patterns may depend on habit and tastes and preferences
Understanding the Relationship between Unemployment and Happiness: How Healthcare Efficiency Plays a Role in Life Satisfaction

Unlike previous literature, my results add to the general discussion about life satisfaction by focusing on how efficient healthcare systems play a role
