This paper presents a two-season model of a household's production, consumption, labor
supply, and storage decisions in an environment of output and price risk. The analytical results …

From a database that is relatively free of bias, this article provides measures of the returns of
hedge funds and of the distinctly nonnormal characteristics of the data. The results include …

A model of divisible technology adoption under incomplete information dissemination and
output uncertainty is developed. We identify economic and subjective factors affecting …

The innovation adoption literature has focused primarily on a producer's decision of whether
and how much to adopt. An equally pertinent question is when to adopt, because in the …

In this work an annealed 0.16wt% carbon steel was subjected to cyclic heat treatment process
that consisted of repeated short-duration (6min) holding at 910C (above Ac 3 temperature…

Ferroelectric field-effect transistors employ a ferroelectric material as a gate insulator, the
polarization state of which can be detected using the channel conductance of the device. As a …

A new utility function, which I call expo‐power, is proposed that exhibits decreasing, constant,
or increasing absolute risk aversion and decreasing or increasing relative risk aversion, …

The polymer‐based synthesis of ceramics such as SiCO (and SiCN) leads to the incorporation
of significant amounts of carbon into their molecular structure. A key feature of the …

A method is developed to permit joint estimation of risk preference structure, degree of risk
aversion, and production technology. The method is implemented using the Expo‐Power …

The two‐step decision process for food‐away‐from‐home (FAFH) consumption is empirically
estimated using a generalization of the Heien and Wessells approach. Household …
