We investigate the evolution of health over the life-cycle. We allow for two sources of persistence: unobserved heterogeneity and state dependence. Estimation indicates that there is a large degree of heterogeneity. For half the population, there are modest degrees of state dependence. For the...

I estimate the gradient among children 0 to 14 years old across different age groups using data from Indonesia. I find … that while the gradient is strong among the very young, it gets weaker and almost disappears among children older than 6. I … find that unequal mortality of children by socioeconomic status depresses the gradient among children 3 years old or …

We study the effect of gravitational force upon traffic flow on a highway with sag, uphill, and downhill. We extend the optimal velocity model to take into account the gravitational force which acts on vehicles as an external force. We study the traffic states and jamming transitions induced by...
