E-Buyer Beware: Why Online Auction Fraud Should Be Regulated, Miriam R. Albert Jan 2002

E-Buyer Beware: Why Online Auction Fraud Should Be Regulated, Miriam R. Albert

Hofstra Law Faculty Scholarship

Part of a special issue on cyber law. The increasing use of the Internet as a medium of commerce has led to an increase in Internet fraud, raising new and challenging legal issues in areas including online auctions. Under current law, a defrauded participant in an online auction transaction has no recourse against the online auction site. However, the FTC should apply its substantial regulatory authority to the creation of binding regulations for online auction sites. Such regulations should include ideas such as authenticating participants' identities, limiting the number of user names per participant, verifying the creditworthiness of participants, offering …

The Social Welfare Of Advertising To Children, Dennis D. Crouch Jan 2002

The Social Welfare Of Advertising To Children, Dennis D. Crouch

Faculty Publications

The aim of this Comment is to approach the issue of advertising to children through an examination of economic incentives and efficiency. The Comment ultimately makes the claim that televised advertisement of products, such as junk food, directed toward children may be inefficient and tend to decrease social welfare. Although they may be compelling, this paper does not rely on the secondary negative externalities often associated with television, such as the cost of treating diabetes and heart disease. Rather, the inefficiency discussed in the Comment involves the informational qualities of advertising. Advertising directed towards young children can be thought of …

Characteristics And Birth Outcomes: Women Receiving No Prenatal Care In The United States, 1995–1997, Cathy R. Taylor

All ETDs from UAB

Although prenatal care is an established mechanism for identifying and managing risk factors impacting pregnancy outcomes, about 70,000 women in the United States receive no prenatal care annually. It was hypothesized that women who receive no care comprise clusters (subgroups) with distinctive sociodemographic characteristics and that differences in birth outcomes exist among the clusters. A population-based, non-experimental, retrospective design, and secondary data were used to identify White, Black, and Hispanic ( n = 126,220) women delivering a live, singleton infant and reporting no prenatal care between 1995 and 1997. Cluster analysis was used to cluster (group) no care women with …
