A systematic analysis of user experience dimensions for interactive digital narratives
No full textProviding intelligent feedback to aid authoring has been proposed as a way to speed up authoring, give the author more control, and to enable the authoring of more complex interactive narratives. However, there is little research investigating what concrete feedback items would be useful for interactive digital narrative (IDN) creators. In this paper, we discuss potentially useful feedback items in relation to authoring goals and concerns. We perform a systematic literature review to make a list of concrete feedback items of interest related to the most emphasised concern of authoring - the effect of the interactive narrative on the user. We identify 47 User Experience (UX) dimensions in the IDN literature that could serve as useful feedback items, covering 8 categories - Agency, Cognition, Immersion, Affect, Drama, Rewards, Motivation and Dissonance. This list combines and untangles how different IDN researchers have interpreted and expressed interest in the complex idea of UX in the past decade and gives us insight into what concrete aspects of UX might be useful to estimate via automated feedback
Privatization of natural monopoly public enterprises : the regulation issue
No full textMany developing countries are considering the privatization of public enterprise natural monopolies. Such as monopolies in charge of electricity, natural gas, waterand sewer, and telephone service. The author tries to answer two questions: (i) how great would the efficiency losses be, if any, if a public natural monopoly were privatized and allowed to function as an unregulated entity? and (ii) how much could performance be expected to improve if the privatized natural monopoly operated as a regular firm? The author argues that the deadweight losses from monopoly pricing by unregulated privatized natural monopolies are likely to be modest and may well be outweighed by improvements in technical efficiency. He also argues that regulation is not costless and may well foster static and dynamic efficiency losses greater than the deadweight monopoly losses it is intended to prevent. Also, the reduction of allocative inefficiency is only one of several objectives of regulation. If the case for regulation on efficiency is weak, then much greater attention must be paid to how these other objectives can best be achieved. Historically, achieving distributional equity has been an important objective of regulation. We have very little systematic knowledge about the actual distributional consequences of privatization and deregulation, so more research is needed.Administrative&Regulatory Law,Economic Theory&Research,Environmental Economics&Policies,Access to Markets,Markets and Market Access
Reforming finance in transitional socialist economies : avoiding the path from shell money to shell games
No full textIn the late 1980s, transitional socialist economies (TSEs) in Central and Eastern Europe were only somewhat more sophisticated than shell money systems: savings books or currency had to be used for most transactions and there was no risk assessment, information monitoring and acquisition, or portfolio management. The TSEs have moved toward a two-tiered banking system but they lag in the development of competitive, market-based financial systems. In several TSEs the financial system seems to be part of a shell game to hide the losses of the real economy. The authors argue that rapid, successful economic reform requires putting the shell game to an end. They review several contentious issues of financial reform in the TSEs, especially issues involving macrofinance, corporate finance, the internal debt problems, and the need to build efficient banks. The authors contend that the banks should be"cleaned up"when they are privatized, to prevent the quick reemergence of debt problems. They believe that either of the proposed alternatives for shaping financial systems in the TSEs - very highly capitalized banking or narrow banking - would minimize the need for future support. Either alternative would reduce leverage in the TSEs and provide more financial stability. But taking concerns about moral hazard to an extreme - prohibiting debt finance - could starve new firms for credit and limit economic growth.Economic Theory&Research,Financial Crisis Management&Restructuring,Environmental Economics&Policies,Banks&Banking Reform,Financial Intermediation
