Technology has created important new possibilities to expand and enrich the scholar's work situation. The Internet, on-line databases, collaborative technologies including Listserv/discussion groups and teleconferencing have made it possible for nonprofit scholars to collaborate in innovative new ways and produce their work at unprecedented rates. Electronic technology is one of the significant forces underpinning the growth on nonprofit scholarship. A number of institutions have made great strides in providing a rich research environment for nonprofit scholars. Efforts to create on-line communities have been fruitful and rewarding. Nonprofit researchers can develop relationships and share ideas with others anywhere in the world. …

Competition And Complementarity In Local Economic Development: A Nonlinear Dynamic Approach, Richard Healy, Randall Jackson
Competition And Complementarity In Local Economic Development: A Nonlinear Dynamic Approach, Richard Healy, Randall Jackson
Regional Research Institute Working Papers
Competition for local economic development has increased dramatically in the past 20 years. This competition is in many cases extremely costly to states and communities, while the benefits are uncertain. If regions whose economic fortunes are complementary could work with instead of against one another, costs of competition could be eliminated, while returns to economic development investments could be enhanced. This paper presents a method by which the underlying spatial economic relationships among areas within a region can be identified. Economic development policy can then be guided by the identification of the competitive or complementary links that exist among areas. …
Race, Migration, And The Social Welfare System During The 1950s And 1960s: How Research Can Mislead The Public Debate, Brian Cushing
Race, Migration, And The Social Welfare System During The 1950s And 1960s: How Research Can Mislead The Public Debate, Brian Cushing
Regional Research Institute Working Papers
A large body of empirical research has concluded that, at least during the 1950s and 1960s, the effect of welfare benefits on migration differed significantly by racial group, with blacks being attracted by and whites repulsed by areas that provided high welfare benefits. This study revisits the issue of racial differences in attractiveness to interregional differences in welfare benefits, using data from the U.S. Census of Population and a simultaneous equation model of state-to-state migration that accounts for a variety of economic, amenity, and spatial factors. In contrast to most previous empirical work, there is no statistically significant evidence that …
Linking Economic Model And Engineering Model: Application Of Sequential Interindustry Model (Sim), Yasuhide Okuyama, Hyunwoo Lim
Linking Economic Model And Engineering Model: Application Of Sequential Interindustry Model (Sim), Yasuhide Okuyama, Hyunwoo Lim
Regional Research Institute Working Papers
A conventional approach to model the regional economic impacts of a catastrophic disaster has been to employ the results from an engineering model, such as lifeline network model, in an economic model, for example input-output framework or computable general equilibrium model. However, due to the differences in modeling scheme between economic and engineering models, this type of data feed creates problems regarding sensitivity and dynamics of the impacts. In this paper, Sequential Interindustry Model (SIM) is used to disaggregate the process of production chronology to become more sensitive to the changes/damages of economic activities under a disaster situation. SIM is …

Faculty & Staff Scholarship
The purpose of this study was to characterize the effects of diesel exhaust particles (DEP) on thiol regulation in alveolar macrophages (AM) and lymphocytes. We obtained AM and lymph node (thymic and tracheal) cells (LNC) (at different time points) from rats exposed intratracheally to DEP (5 mg/kg) or saline, and measured inflammatory markers, thiol levels, and glutathione reductase (GSH-R) activity. DEP exposure produced significant increases in neutrophils, lactate dehydrogenase, total protein, and albumin content in the lavage fluid. AM from DEP-exposed rats showed a time-dependent increase in intracellular cysteine (CYSH) and GSH. In LNC the intracellular GSH reached peak level …
A Spatial Logit Association Model For Cluster Detection, Ge Lin
A Spatial Logit Association Model For Cluster Detection, Ge Lin
Regional Research Institute Working Papers
In this paper, I propose a logit spatial association model for binary spatial events and develop a scan algorithm to search for spatial associations. I extend the traditional logit model with spatial autocorrelated component so that the model includes not only known risk factors, but also spatially autocorrelated regions as a control or explanatory factor. The case study of West Virginia Lung Cancer shows that the model effectively captures cool and hot spots in lung cancer mortality.
Economic Impacts Of Unscheduled Events: Sequential Interindustry Model (Sim) Approach, Yasuhide Okuyama, Geoffrey Hewings, Michael Sonis
Economic Impacts Of Unscheduled Events: Sequential Interindustry Model (Sim) Approach, Yasuhide Okuyama, Geoffrey Hewings, Michael Sonis
Regional Research Institute Working Papers
Regional economic models have been challenged to incorporate with structural changes in the economy. Especially, when a structural change is sudden, unpredictable, yet extensive, such as damages from a natural disaster, conventional models can hardly confront such significant changes due to their assumption of incremental changes. Sequential Interindustry Model (SIM) is an extension of the input-output framework that enables to trace the production process and the path of the impacts. SIM is particularly useful to simulate the dynamic process of impact propagation and of structural changes after a catastrophic disaster. In this paper, the issues and extensions of SIM are …
Structural Change Of The Chicago Economy: A Temporal Inverse Analysis, Yasuhide Okuyama, Michael Sonis, Geoffrey Hewings
Structural Change Of The Chicago Economy: A Temporal Inverse Analysis, Yasuhide Okuyama, Michael Sonis, Geoffrey Hewings
Regional Research Institute Working Papers
Earlier study (Sonis and Hewings, 1998) proposed an alternative tool that can assist in exploiting trends and uncovering tendencies in individual sectors or groups of sectors within the context of an economy-wide system of accounts. In this paper, the methodology, Temporal Leontief Inverse Analysis, is applied to a set of annual input-output tables for the Chicago metropolitan economy during the period of 1980-97. The results are compared to the earlier analysis (Hewings et al., 1998, Okuyama et al., 2002a, and Okuyama et al. 2002b) to examine the method and to investigate further the structural changes of the Chicago economy.
Parametric And Non Parametric Testing For Income Convergence, James O. Bukenya, Tesfa Gebremedhin, Peter V. Schaeffer
Parametric And Non Parametric Testing For Income Convergence, James O. Bukenya, Tesfa Gebremedhin, Peter V. Schaeffer
Regional Research Institute Working Papers
This paper examines the degree to which per capita incomes have converged across counties in West Virginia over the last thirty years. The increase in government transfers and, possibly, other government assistance programs would suggest that incomes in spatially dispersed regions/counties within nation-state should become similar over this period. However, the interrelation between business cycles, migration, employment structure and changes in per capita earnings over time reduces this possibility. Comparable county data are obtained for two dissmilar regions: southern and eastern panhandle. The empirical results differ across the different measurement techniques used, but in general, the findings concur with the …
