Food Stamp Program and Consumption Choices
No full textWe study the effect of the Food Stamp Program (FSP) on consumption patterns in families headed by low-educated single mothers in the U.S. using the Consumer Expenditure Surveys for 1994-2004. Our analysis suggests that the food stamp caseload does not have any statistically significant association with per capita expenditure on food in families headed by low-educated single mothers. We find that state and federal welfare reforms during the 1990s lowered the food stamp caseload by approximately 18 percent and the introduction of the Electronic Benefit Transfer cards and simplified reporting procedures for recertification of food stamps increased participation by about seven percent. However, we do not find any evidence that these policies had any effect on total food expenditure, nor do we find any consistent evidence that the policies affected expenditures on specific food items.
When to STAMP? A case study in aircraft ground handling services
No full textIn this paper we show that safety analysis using the STAMP causation model is limited in the extent to which it appreciates complex dynamics of safety. When the STAMP is applied as management tool, controls may be introduced too soon in the analysis since it is necessary to understand emergent behaviour first. Emergent behaviour can be studied through organizational ethnography in parallel development with an agent-based model, as illustrated in a case study of airport ground handling services. Based on ethnographic research and theories from psychology and social sciences, we developed an agent model that showed why repeated attempts at managerial control to improve employees’ safety compliance were not durable. The insights obtained through the case study attained to move management ideas about what control means towards creating smarter design and communication processes that involve the work force.Control & OperationsAerospace Engineerin
