Inflation – Harrod-Balassa-Samuelson Effect In A Dsge Model Setting, Črt Lenarčič

Economic and Business Review

This paper sets up a two-country two-sector dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model that introduces sector specific productivity shocks with quality improvement mechanism of goods. It provides a model-based theoretical background for the Harrod-Balassa-Samuelson phenomenon that describes the relationship between productivity and price inflation within different sectors in a particular economy. Both, the calibrated and the estimated model are able to show that the Harrod-Balassa-Samuelson effect is confirmed by inducing tradable sector productivity shocks as they drive the non-tradable sector price inflation higher than the tradable sector price inflation. By doing this, we overcome the problem that the tradable productivity increase …

Turning From Deficits To Strengths: Teaching Students A Strength-Based Approach To Clinical Care And Community Health, Anthony Fleg

HSC Education Days

Asset Mapping is a well-recognized approach to clinical and community health, championed by the fields of social work and public health. In the field of medicine, an approach that is focused on disease, deficits, deficiencies, addictions, etc. is the dominant model, leading to interventions that fail to incorporate strengths that could contribute to the care plan. Strength-based approaches to clinical and community health will improve efficacy of interventions, increase student/provider satisfaction with their work, and is a method toward addressing health inequities.
