Securitization and mortgage default
No full textThe academic literature, the popular press, and policymakers have all debated securitization's contribution to the poor performance of mortgages originated in the run-up to the recent crisis. Theoretical arguments have been advanced on both sides, but the lack of suitable data has made it difficult to assess them empirically. The author examines this issue by using a loan-level data set from LPS Analytics, covering approximately two-thirds of the mortgages originated in 2005 and 2006, and including both securitized and nonsecuritized loans. ; The author finds evidence that privately securitized loans do indeed perform worse than observably similar, nonsecuritized loans. Moreover, this effect is strongest in prime mortgage markets, which have not been studied in the previous literature. For example, a typical prime loan becomes delinquent at a 20 percent higher rate if it is privately securitized, ceteris paribus. This is consistent with the existence of adverse selection; that is, that lenders used information not available to investors to securitize loans that were riskier than they otherwise appeared. By contrast, for subprime mortgages, the impact of private securitization is concentrated in low or no-documentation loans; this latter result is consistent with previous work such as Keys et al.

Stimulation of joint attention in children aged 17-30 months with positive screening rate of autism using VIG method
No full textNÁZEV PRÁCE: Stimulace sdílené pozornosti u dětí s pozitivním screeningem autismu ve věku 17-30 měsíců za využití metody VTI TITLE: Stimulation of joint attention in children aged 17-30 months with positive screening rate of autism using VIG method. AUTHOR: Mgr. Romana Straussová DEPARTMENT: Special Education SUPERVISOR: prof. RNDr. PhDr. Marie Vágnerová, CSc. ABSTRACT: The subject of this dissertation is research of the impact of the modified VIG intervention method applied in 16 families with children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), the children being at the age of 17-30 months when entering the project. The intervention and subsequent monitoring of the development took place during the years 2011- 16. The aim of the study was to determine whether it is possible to positively influence the development of a child with autism without the use of intensive therapy guided by a professional, using only parent behavioral training and with the support of attachment behavior. The subjects of research evaluation were the degree of the child's development and the father's and mother's experience with parental roles in relation to the child's disability. The results were surprisingly positive. 38 % (6 children) stepped out of the clinical to nonclinical, 25 % still show the picture of developmental dysphasia, 5..

Worship in second-century Gnosticism : studies in the ritual life of some early Christian minorities
No full textThis series of interconnected studies in the ritual
practice of the groups associated with the early
Christian movement which are now usually now described
as 'Gnostic', is a modest essay towards a survey of
the subject, last undertaken by Bousset in 1907 and
Fendt in 1922.
Of the three main groups of sects which became
distinguishable during the investigation, these studies
are concerned with two:- those here designated 'Cults
of Power', and those showing signs of having their
origin in the separation of church from synagogue.
A consideration of the third group, here entitled 'The
Gentile Counter-Churches', is omitted, to keep this
dissertation within manageable compass; it would have
been comparatively brief, because of the paucity of
evidence. At the outset, it had been expected that
general characterizations would be possible. However,
the repeated discovery that the expectation of unifying
characteristics, or even of some sort of underlying
unitive rite, was not substantiated hy the material,each
detectable ritual association on its own, with
the minimum recourse to evidence from other contexts,
except to note the clearest parallels and probable
borrowings.
Chapter One lists the questions asked; surveys the
present literature and the sources (both patristic
and sectarian); lists and classifies the sects to be
examined; and discusses method.
Chapter Two examines the 'Cults of Power', after
a definition of that term and a characterization of
such cults, past and present. The topics are:- Simon
Magus; Menander; Satornil; Cerdo; the Carpocratians;
Marcus and the Marcosiansj and Elchasai. In the course
of this chapter, in connection with Marcus, a major
suggestion is made as to the original order of
Adversus Haereses I, which affects all presentations
of Valentinian liturgy, and hence of all 'Gnostic'
worship in general.
Chapter Three argues liturgical
continuity, combinin baptismal devotion with 'Ascentof-
the-Soul' Ri aI, can be traced through the users
of the Gosp of Thomas, the Peratae, the Naassenes/Chapter Three argues that a degree of liturgical
continuity, combining a baptismal devotion with
'Ascent '-ritual, can be traced through the users of
the Gospel of Thomas, the Peratae, the Naassenes/Ophites,
Justin the Gnostic and the 'Phibionites' of Epiphanius,
and certain Jewish-Christians who claimed a 'James'-
tradition. (Apparently cognate groups, the users of
pokryphon of John and of the Petrine apocrypha
from Nag Hammadi, offer insufficient liturgical data
to be incorporated here). It is argued that this complex
of sects derives from the chaos of the separation of
Christianity from Judaism
