Valuing health care using willingness to pay: a comparison of the payment card and dichotomous choice methods
No full textThis paper compares willingness to pay (WTP) estimates generated from the dichotomous choice (DC) and payment card (PC) approaches. In a split-sample WTP experiment concerned with allocating scarce health care resources across three health care interventions, the DC approach is shown consistently to generate larger welfare estimates than the PC. Observed difference between PC and DC experiments cannot be explained by the inclusion of non-demanders or methods of statistical analysis but may be partly explained by "yea-saying". No evidence of range bias or mid-point bias was found with PC responses. Data were also collected on respondents' ordinal rankings of the three interventions and person-trade-offs (PTOs). Neither of these approaches converged with WTP. Future work must address the decision heuristics individuals employ when responding to valuation experiments.</p

Work-related psychological health among Church of England clergywomen : individual differences and psychological type
No full textUsing the balanced affect model of work-related psychological health proposed and measured by the Francis Burnout Inventory, this paper set out to assess the work-related psychological health of a sample of 874 stipendiary parochial clergywomen working within the Church of England to examine the association between work-related psychological health and psychological type as assessed by the Francis Psychological Type Scales. The data demonstrate that these clergywomen experience a high level of emotional exhaustion often off-set by a high level of satisfaction in ministry, but that these levels are roughly consistent with those reported by clergymen and clergywomen working in other cultural and denominational contexts. In terms of psychological type theory, the data demonstrate that extraverts and feelers enjoy a better level of work-related psychological health in comparison with introverts and thinkers. This finding is consistent with the view that introverted thinking clergywomen may find themselves operating in ministry for long periods with their less preferred orientation of extraversion and their less preferred judging function of feeling. Suggestions are offered to help introverted and thinking clergy to deal more effectively with the stresses of ministry
Eidyllion
No full textThe publication included of a selection of landscape photographs made by Mandy Lee Jandrell over a period of 4 years that showed environments that are at odds with reality or the ‘real place’. The selection of images published in Edge of a Dream looked specifically at representations in constructed leisure environments that reproduce nostalgic pictorial conventions. Mandy Lee Jandrell also contributed to the research project for over a year in a series of discussions, seminars and a symposium held at both Camberwell College and Goldsmiths College, with the other participants, which led to the publication of the book. Through discussions with other participants a selection of her photographic work was made, to which the writers responded. Fellow participants in the project were acclaimed writers and photographers including Simryn Gill, Mandy Lee Jandrell, Virginia Nimarkoh, David Spero, Anthony Iles, Kate Soper and John Wood, with an introductory text by Paul Halliday. Edge of a Dream is the culmination of an Arts & Humanities Research Council funded project organised by Camberwell College of Arts and Goldsmiths, University of London. The process of collaboration between writers and visual artists allowed for the production of a book that uniquely engages with ideas around the representation of Landscape in contemporary photography. www.edgeofadream.co.uk The research project and its publication led to numerous debates and discussions around the representation of landscape in a series of discussions, seminars and a symposium held at both Camberwell College and Goldsmiths College which were open to the public. The book publication was launched with an event at the South London Gallery and is available for purchase through Affram Books. It is housed in a number of university librarie

Binge drinking is common among active-duty military personnel, according to a new study released by the University of Minnesota and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In the study, involving more than 16,000 military personnel, binge drinking was reported by 43 percent of military personnel during the past month. How does one define binge drinking? Lead author of the study, Mandy Stahre, a University of Minnesota Ph.D. student, explains. Stahre says the study shows that binge drinking is a significant public health problem.
