description: Recently academic work has been put forward that argues for a great urgency to implement effective climate policies to stop global warming. Concrete policy proposals for reducing CO2 emissions have been developed by the IPCC. One of the major instruments proposed is a carbon tax. A main obstacle for its implementation, however, are concerns about the short-term effects on employment and output. In order to miti-gate possible negative effects of enviromental taxes on output and employment, several European countries have introduced so-called environmental tax reforms (ETR) which are designed in a budget neutral manner: Revenues from the tax can be used to reduce existing distortionary taxes or to subsidize less polluting activities. We apply this idea to a carbon tax scheme by performing a vector autoregression (VAR) with output and employment data of nine industrialized countries. We impose a simultaneous policy shock on the economy whereby a carbon tax is levied on high-carbon intensive industries and the resulting tax revenue is redistributed to low-carbon intensive industries. Impulse response analysis shows that such a policy allows for net gains in terms of output and employment.

description: Buddhismus und die subjektiven Gründe dafür, Buddhist zu werden, sind in Deutschland bislang kaum soziologisch erforscht. Und das, obwohl einerseits buddhistische Inhalte gesellschaftlich einen festen Platz einnehmen und andererseits die buddhistische Gemeinschaft stetig wächst. Deshalb soll nachfolgend vor dem Hintergrund der drei prominenten religionssoziologischen Theorien: Säkularisierungstheorie, Individualisierungstheorie und religiösem Marktmodell, ein qualitatives Studiendesign entwickelt werden um die Popularität des Buddhismus als religiöse Alternative in München empirisch zu untersuchen.

title: Die Kreditgeber Ferdinands I., Maximilians II. und Rudolfs II.
Creators: name: Winder, Lukas
Year: 2013

description: Die Aufnahme von Krediten war für die kaiserlichen Finanzverwaltung im 16. Jahrhundert unbedingt erforderlich, um die anfallenden Ausgaben bestreiten zu können. Diese Studie beschäftigt sich mit den Kreditgebern der Kaiser Ferdinand I., Maximilian II. und Rudolf II. auf Basis eines Verzeichnisses aus dem Wiener Hofkammerarchiv. In ihm ist eine große Anzahl ihrer Kreditgeber und deren Darlehen erfasst, von denen für diese Arbeit eine Auswahl zur näheren Untersuchung getroffen wurde. Sie werden dann gemäß räumlicher und gesellschaftlicher Kriterien in Gruppen eingeteilt und beschrieben. Dabei liegt das Hauptaugenmerk auf der Darstellung, wie sich die Kreditvergabe an die Kaiser auf die Kreditgeber auswirkte, was für Vorteile sie sich davon versprachen und welche sie tatsächlich daraus zogen. Der Verwendungszweck und die Art der Schuldenbegleichung einzelner Darlehen findet – soweit möglich – ebenfalls Berücksichtigung. Ein Vergleich der Gruppen untereinander lässt schließlich Rückschlüsse darauf ziehen, woher die Kaiser die meisten ihrer Darlehen bekamen.
title: Immigration and educational spillovers: evidence from Sudeten German expellees in post-war Bavaria

subject: 330

description: This paper analyses long-term effects of forced WWII migration on educational outcomes. Specifically Sudeten German expellees in post-war Bavaria coming from highly industrialized Sudetenland (Czechoslovakia) had strong preferences for higher secondary schooling, especially in form of a practical, business-related, and general education school. As a result they became actively engaged in the development of post-war middle track education (Realschule, Fachschule). Employing county-level data on student numbers and graduates of secondary education, empirical analysis including ordinary least squares, instrumental variable, and differences-in-differences models reveals that counties housing a higher share of Sudeten Germans after the war are significantly associated with higher educational development some 20 years later. An increase in the share of Sudeten Germans by 1 percentage point increases the share of children (graduates) in middle track education by at least 0.8 (0.1) percentage points, respectively. Calculations suggest that these effects are not mechanically caused by Sudeten Germans and their children demanding education, but are the actual result of educational spillovers to the local population.

description: Atmospheric pollution is one consequence of global-scale technology on Earth. Some technology elevates existing levels of atmospheric constituents in the atmosphere, while other industrial processes can contribute novel pollutants that would not otherwise be present. The detection of such pollutants in the atmosphere of an exoplanet would be compelling evidence for the existence of extraterrestrial technology. In this poster, I discuss the possibility of detecting technosignatures that could arise from planets with elevated levels of chlorofluorocarbons and other pollutants with current and planned observatories.

description: We provide an overview over different literature streams that aim at explaining the origin of persistent productivity differences across organization by variation in the use of management practices. We focus on human resource management (HRM) practices, document gaps in the literature, and show how insights from behavioral economics can inform the analysis. To this end, we develop a simple agency model illustrating how social preferences influence the design and impact of incentive schemes, investigate how auxiliary HRM practices can strengthen this interaction, and provide an overview over empirical investigations of this questions. Finally, we identify avenues for further research in this field.

description: We use more than 63,000 datapoints from a German used car market website to document systematic and substantial price drops at vintage (= year of first registration) thresholds and 10,000 km odometer marks. The latter finding replicates the findings in Lacetera et al. (2012), whereas the first dimension cannot be analyzed with their US data because only German cars have such legally mandated and regulated "birthdates". Hence we have the unique opportunity to study the presence of coarse information processing within the same dataset and decision problem but across two separate domains. We document that discontinuities in these two domains are of comparable size. While Lacetera et al. (2012) explain their result with a left-digit bias in the processing of numerical information, vintage discontinuities cannot be explained by this. We propose a slightly more general model of information prominence and availability bias to accommodate our findings.

Common name. Diadem Leaf-nosed Bat.
Current name. Hipposideros diadema trobrius Troughton, 1937c; following Simmons (2005).
Holotype. M.5181 by original designation. Male, skull, study skin (Figs 54–55), collected and presented by Mr A. J. Vogan, registered 21 September 1931. Collection date not given, assumed to be 1931.
Condition. Cranium complete; left dentary missing coronoid process, right dentary complete. Study skin: faded and with two bald patches on abdominal area. The specimen is tied to cardboard with its ventral side visible.
Type locality. Kiriwina Island (Trobriand Islands), Milne Bay Province, Papua New Guinea.
Paratype. M.5182 by original designation. Male, body in alc., same data as holotype.
Comments. Type series appears to be two specimens. Kitchener et al. (1992) consider that H. diadema subspecies from Papua New Guinea and the Solomon Islands require revision, and that smaller forms including trobrius are not closely related to H. d. diadema (É. Geoffroy, 1813) or H. d. reginae.

description: We report on seven years of experience with teaching an annual, full-term, university course devoted entirely to SETI. SETI is usually featured in only one or a few lectures in traditional astronomy or astrobiology courses. However, SETI's rich interdisciplinary character provides a powerful vehicle for introducing a full term's worth of foundational concepts to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) students. The UCLA SETI course has introduced such concepts to 120+ advanced undergraduate and 10+ graduate students so far. During the course, students use astronomical catalogs to identify preferred targets, design an observing sequence for the 100 m Green Bank Telescope, participate in remote observations, analyze the data to identify prominent sources of radio frequency interference and narrowband technosignature candidates, contribute source code improvements to the UCLA SETI data processing pipeline, and co-author peer-reviewed journal articles that describe the results. In the process, they learn about exoplanets, celestial mechanics, celestial coordinate systems, electromagnetic wave radiation and propagation, radio astronomy, signal processing and Fourier analysis, probability distributions and statistics, database management and structured query language, collaborative software development, accelerated computing, machine learning, and scientific writing. So far, our search has sampled over 40 thousand known stars in 100+ distinct sky directions and detected over 60 million narrowband signals.

title: Size Matters - "Over"investments in a Relational Contracting Setting

Subjects: subject: relational contracts, corporate finance, capital investments
subject: 330

description: The corporate finance literature documents that managers tend to overinvest into physical assets. A number of theoretical contributions have aimed to explain this stylized fact, most of them focussing on a fundamental agency problem between shareholders and managers. The present paper shows that overinvestments are not necessarily the (negative) consequence of agency problems between shareholders and managers, but instead might be a second-best optimal response if the scope of court-enforceable contracts is limited. In such an environment a firm has to rely on relational contracts in order to manage the agency relationship with its workforce. The paper shows that investments into physical productive assets enhance the enforceability of relational contracts and hence investments optimally are "too high".

Rec. Aust. Mus. 17(2): 89, fig. 1, table 1. (26 June 1929).
Common name. Solomon Large-footed Myotis.
Current name. Myotis moluccarum solomonis (Troughton, 1929b), following Simmons (2005).
Holotype. M.4361 by original designation. Female adult, skull, study skin, collected in 1928 by J. H. L. Waterhouse, registered in August 1928. The original register entry lists a body in alc. in addition to the skin, but the skinned body has not yet been located in the collection.
Condition. Cranium with broken left zygomatic arch; dentaries complete. Study skin has tear in the distal end of left wing membrane between 3rd and 4th digits, otherwise in reasonable condition.
Type locality. Roviana Island, New Georgia Group, Western Province, Solomon Islands.
Comments. Described from the holotype only. Few additional specimens of Myotis have been reported from the Solomon Islands and the species taxonomy of all Australasian Myotis needs further revision. Kitchener et al. (1995) who apparently did not examine the holotype of solomonis, suspected that Myotis from the Solomon Islands were a distinct taxon on the basis of the two specimens they examined but they referred these to M. m. moluccarum, pending a more detailed assessment. Phillips & Birney (1968) synonymized Anamygdon with Myotis.

description: In corporate practice, incentive schemes are often complicated even for simple tasks. Hence, the way they are communicated might matter. In a controlled field experiment, we study a minimally invasive change in the communication of a well-established incentive scheme - a reminder regarding the piece rate at the beginning of the shift. The experiment was conducted in a large firm where experienced managers work in a team production setting and here incentives for both quantity and quality of output are provided. While the treatment conveyed no additional material information and left the incentive system unchanged, it had significant positive effects on quantity and on managers' compensation. These effects are economically sizable and robust to alternative empirical specifications. We consider various potential mechanisms, where our preferred explanation  -  improved salience of incentives - is consistent with all of the findings

Common name. Loyalty Bentwing-bat.
Current name. Miniopterus robustior Revilliod, 1914; following Simmons (2005).
? Syntype. M.5172, female, skull, body in alc., Kepenete [= Chépénéhé], Lifou, Loyalty Islands, collected 23 April 1912. Registered in AM on 12 September 1931, received in exchange from “Natural History Museum, Bâle” (= NMB). The specimen is inadvertently listed as a male by Flannery (1995c).
Condition. Cranium missing right zygomatic arch, fracture in right parietal; dentaries complete. Body in alc.: broken right forearm (near elbow), fur slip on both ventral and dorsal surfaces of abdominal area.
Comments. Troughton believed this specimen was a “co-type” and he marked it as such in the M Register but there is no record of an original field number or NMB registration number. Although from the original series collected by Sarasin and Roux, we are not sure if it is a syntype. Hill (1971) had a similar problem with a specimen of this taxon marked “co-type” in the BMNH. Revilliod (1914) did not designate a holotype but his description is based on nine specimens for which he lists registration numbers and individual measurements. The nine syntypes and four skulls listed by Revilliod are listed as being in the NMB by Oakeley (1998). Multiple specimens are registered under some numbers and she lists a total of 16 specimens, all listed as syntypes. The implication from Oakeley (1998) is that all specimens were listed as “typus” without an indication of those used in Revilliod’s description.

description: We provide evidence that German savings banks - where local politicians are by law involved in their management - systematically adjust lending policies in response to local electoral cycles. The different timing of county elections across states and the existence of a control group of cooperative banks - that are very similar to savings banks but lack their political connectedness - allow for clean identification of causal effects of county elections on savings banks’ lending. These effects are economically meaningful and robust to various specifications. Moreover, politically induced lending increases in incumbent party entrenchment and in the contestedness of upcoming elections.

description: In der Ausbildung zur Heimhilfe stellt der Übergang von der theoretischen in die praktische Ausbildung sowohl für Auszubildende als auch für Praktikumsanleiter und Praktikumsanleiterinnen oftmals eine große Herausforderung dar, die nicht selten zu Ausbildungsabbrüchen führt. Die vorliegende Diplomarbeit geht der Fragestellung nach, unter welchen Voraussetzungen der Einsatz von problemorientierten Unterrichtsmethoden (POL/PBL) diesen Übergang vereinfachen kann. Die Arbeit stellt das Berufsbild der Heimhilfe in Österreich hinsichtlich der historischen Entwicklung, gesetzlichen Rahmenbedingungen und Aufgabenschwerpunkten vor und bietet einen Überblick über die didaktischen Grundprinzipien der Problemorientierung. Basierend auf themenspezifischer Fachliteratur und den Ergebnissen von 15 Leitfadeninterviews mit am Ausbildungsprozess beteiligten Personengruppen werden Empfehlungen für den Einsatz von POL/PBL in der Heimhilfeausbildung erarbeitet. Zusammenfassend kann festgehalten werden, dass der Einsatz von problem-orientierten Unterrichtsansätzen berechtigte Erwartungen in eine gesteigerte Praxisnähe der Heimhilfeausbildung erweckt. Für die Umsetzung von POL/PBL in der Heimhilfeausbildung sind Voraussetzungen hinsichtlich der Basisqualifikation der Schüler und Schülerinnen, der organisatorischen und didaktischen Fähigkeiten der Vortragenden und der infrastruktureller und materiellen Ausstattung der Unterrichtsräumlichkeiten zu berücksichtigen.
description: The passage from theoretical training to practical training, during the vocational training to become a domestic help, represents a major challenge both for trainees and internship supervisors, which quite often results even in an interruption of the training. This study aims at identifying the conditions under which problem oriented learning (POL/PBL) can facilitate this passage. The study describes the historical development, the legal framework and also the main focus on duties; and it provides an overview of the basic principles of the didactics of problem oriented learning. On one hand, based on thematic literature and on the other hand, based on the results of 15 structured interviews with groups of people involved in the training process, the study elaborates recommendations for the use of POL/PBL during the vocational training to become a domestic help. It can be concluded that using problem oriented learning permits meeting the expectation for increased practical relevance. The implementation of POL/PBL, in the training of domestic help, requires a basic qualification of trainees, organisational and teaching skills of trainers, and adequate material and equipment in terms of infrastructure in teaching rooms.

description: We investigate whether risk, time, environmental, and social preferences affect single family homeowners’ investments in energy efficient renovations and energy quality of their house using established experimental measures and questionnaires. We find that homeowners who report to be more risk taking are more likely to have renovated their house. Pro-environmental and future-oriented renovators, i.e. renovators with lower discount factors, live in homes with higher energy efficiency. Controlling for the energy efficiency of houses, we further find that energy consumption as measured by heating and energy costs are lower for future-oriented and pro-environmental individuals. Social preferences measured in a dictator and a generosity game play a mixed role for investments in energy efficiency and energy consumption.

However, SETI endeavors could benefit more by expanding its scope into two-folded interdisciplinary research program, one exploring the nature of human, other animals, and artificial cognition, and the another exploring all possible and hypothetical ways and channels that potential ETI could use to manifest itself. This kind of new research program could be named like cognitive astrobiology in order to better describe its research areas.

title: Das Älvdalische - Sprache oder Dialekt?
Creators: name: Zach, Kristine
Year: 2013

description: In dieser Arbeit wird das Älvdalische, hinsichtlich der Frage, ob die Varietät als Sprache oder Dialekt zu definieren ist, untersucht. Offiziell ist das Älvdalische nicht als Regional- oder Minderheitensprache anerkannt, sondern gilt als schwedischer Dialekt. Als Grundlage dienen die von Heinz Kloss geprägten Kriterien von ‚Abstand’ und ‚Ausbau’ sprachlicher Varietäten. Eine Untersuchung des Älvdalischen hinsichtlich seines Abstands zum Standardschwedischen, auf den Ebenen Phonetik, Morphologie und Lexik, weist das Älvdalische als ‚Abstandssprache’ aus. Die Untersuchung des sprachlichen Ausbaus des Älvdalischen, auf den Ebenen Normierung/Standardisierung, Verschriftlichung/Literatur, Status/Sprachplanung und Verwendung/Einstellung der Sprecher/innen, kann dem Älvdalischen die Bezeichnung als ‚Ausbausprache’ nicht gewähren. Das Älvdalische ist eine Abstandssprache, aber keine Ausbausprache. Die Hoffnung lebt, dass das Älvdalische, bevor es ausstirbt, den Status als Sprache – auch im offiziellen Kontext – noch zuerkannt bekommen wird.

Moral Hazard and the Energy Efficiency Gap: Theory and Evidence
Creators: name: Giraudet, Louis-Gaëtan
name: Houde, Sébastien
name: Maher, Joseph
Publisher: name: Digital Repository at the University of Maryland
Year: 2016
Subjects: energy efficiency gap, moral hazard, energy-savings insurance, minimum quality standard, credence good, day-of-the-week effect

description: We investigate how moral hazard problems can cause sub-optimal investment in energy efficiency, a
phenomenon known as the energy efficiency gap. We focus on contexts where both the quality offered by the
energy efficiency provider and the behavior of the energy user are imperfectly observable. We first formalize
under-provision of quality and compare two policy instruments: energy-savings insurance and minimum
quality standards. Both instruments are second-best, for different reasons. Insurance induce over-use of
energy, thereby requiring incomplete coverage in equilibrium. Standards incur enforcement costs. We then
provide empirical evidence of moral hazard in the U.S. home retrofit market. We find that for those measures,
the quality of which is deemed hard to observe, realized energy savings are subject to day-of-the-week effects.
Specifically, energy savings are significantly lower when those measures were installed on a Friday—a day
particularly prone to negative shocks on workers’ productivity—than on any other weekday. The Friday effect
explains 65% of the discrepancy between predicted and realized energy savings, an increasingly documented
manifestation of the energy efficiency gap. We finally parameterize a model of the U.S. market for attic
insulation and find that the deadweight loss from moral hazard is important over a range of specifications.
Minimum quality standards appear more desirable than energy-savings insurance if energy-use externalities
remain unpriced.

Subjects: subject: 610

description: ICRP hat 1977 zum ersten Mal Risikokoeffizienten für strahlcninduzierte Krebsmortalität angegeben.Diese Zahlen stützen sich vor allem auf die Beobachtungen an den Atombomben-Überlebenden.Durch die Revision der Atombombcn-Dosimetric und die Weiterführung der Beobachtungen biszum Jahr 1985 ergaben sich erhöhte Risikoschätzungen. Ihre Zahlenwerte und die Ursachen für dieÄnderung werden diskutiert. Die Risikoschätzungen für die in jungem Alter Bestrahlten sind nochunsicher. Die neuen Empfehlungen der ICRP basieren auf Berechnungen, die sich aus dem Modelldes relativen Risikos ergeben, das im Widerspruch steht zu dem beobachteten Trend abnehmenderProportionalitätsfaktoren des Exzeßrisikos mit zunehmender Zeit nach Bestrahlung. Einmodifiziertes Modell des relativen Risikos, bei dem die Proportionalitätsfaktoren nur vom erreichtenAlter abhängen, führt für Bestrahlungen im Alter von weniger als 30 Jahren zu deutlich geringerenProjektionen in die Zukunft. Gcmittclt über alle Altersstufen erhält man Risikowertc, die etwa halbso hoch sind wie die Schätzungen der ICRP. Mit dem modifizierten Modell erhält man ohne denhypothetischen Reduktionsfaktor zur Extrapolation auf kleine Dosen etwa die gleichenRisikokoeffizienten, wie sie von ICRP angegeben werden.

title: Evaluierung des praktischen Anleiterprogramms der Schule für Kinder- und Jugendlichenpflege am Allgemeinen Krankenhaus Wien
Creators: name: Friedlmayer, Bettina
Year: 2013

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit evaluiert das Anleiterprogramm der Schule für Kinder- und Jugendlichenpflege am Allgemeinen Krankenhaus der Stadt Wien. Hierbei leiten Schülerinnen des dritten Ausbildungsjahres Schülerinnen des ersten Ausbildungsjahres im Thema Körperpflege an. Die vorliegende Studie konnte die Erreichung der Ziele des Anleiterprogramms nachweisen und verdeutlicht damit den Beitrag den die Schule für Kinder-und Jugendlichenpflege zur Ausbildung von Kinderkrankenschwesterrn und Kinderkrankenpflegern leistet. Die Evaluierung zeigt außerdem die subjektive Wahrnehmung bezüglich des Prozesses des Anleiterprogramms der Auszubildenden des dritten Ausbildungsjahres während des gesamten Anleiterprogramms, sie drückt die subjektive Wahrnehmung bezüglich der strukturellen Gegebenheiten des Anleitungsprogramms aus und beleuchtet den subjektiven Lerngewinn bezüglich des Anleitens von Schülerinnen für die Absolventen des Anleiterprogramms nach ungefähr einem Jahr Berufserfahrung. Als methodischer Ansatz der Untersuchung wurde der Methodenmix verschiedener qualitativer Methoden gewählt, hierbei kamen halbstrukturierte Interviews einerseits und Gruppendiskussionen andererseits zum Einsatz. Die Auswertung der Daten erfolgte mit der qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse nach Mayring. Die Studie zeigte, dass alle Befragten Kompetenzen im Anleiten von Schülerinnen und Schülern erreichen konnten und somit ihren Berufspflichten, hinsichtlich der Anleitung von Schülern und Schülerinnen, als Diplomierte Kinderkrankenschwester und Diplomierter Kinderkrankenpfleger nachkommen können.
