Systemic Barriers That Prevent Mental Health Services From Being Accessed By The Deaf Population, Jen Ruther-Uhrich

Questionnaires were sent out to 100 individuals that serve Deaf adults with mental illness within the Twin Cities Metro Area. The results from the 48 seruice providers' questionnaires responses show specific qualitative barriers; Community Service Agencies, Cultural Competency, Deaf lndividuals with Additional Needs, …

Probability Errors: Some Positive And Normative Implications For Tort And Contract Law, Eric A. Posner Jan 2003

Probability Errors: Some Positive And Normative Implications For Tort And Contract Law, Eric A. Posner

Articles

This paper examines the effect of tort rules on behavior if people are optimistic or insensitive relative to true probabilities. The paper shows that under certain conditions both strict liability and negligence cause levels of care that are higher than, or equal to, what is efficient (rather than lower, which is the common assumption). The paper also shows that under certain conditions strict liability and negligence cause the same level of activity among optimists (more than is efficient). Other implications for tort law are discussed, as are the sensitivity of the results to the choice of how to model probability …


Death, Taxes, And Cognition, Lee Anne Fennell Jan 2003

Death, Taxes, And Cognition, Lee Anne Fennell

Articles

The psychology of the estate tax is extraordinarily interesting and surprisingly underexplored. In this Article, Professor Fennell considers the ways in which behavioral law and economics might augment and revise existing understandings of the tax and of redistributive policy generally. The Article is structured around two puzzles that have been frequently identified in the estate tax literature: first, why popular opposition to the tax is so great, even among those who have no reason to expect estate tax liability; and second, why those whose estates are likely to be subject to the tax often do not take advantage of the …

A Resource Guide To Support Minority Students At The Elementary Grade In The Kent School District With Learning Difficulties In The Area Of Reading, Patricia L. Drobny
