Abstract:
We quantify what drives the rise in medical expenditures over the life-cycle using a stochastic dynamic overlapping generations model of health investment. Three motives for health investment are considered. First, health delivers a flow of utility each period (the consumption motive). Second, better health enables people to allocate more time to productive or pleasurable activities (the investment motive). Third, better health improves survival prospects (the survival motive). We find that, overall, the consumption motive plays a dominant role, whereas the investment motive is more important

Abstract:

 There are many reasons why individuals participate in sports or physical activities. There are two main types of motives for engaging in physical activities, which is intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. Previous research found that the six important motives, given by student-athletes for sport participation, were achievement, body shape, physical fitness, teamwork, learning new skills and challenges. However, research comparing the difference on motives for taking part in physical activities, especially on gender is limited. The aim of this study is to find the motives of taking part in

In psychological and pedagogical science and practice, special attention is paid to the motivation of learning activities, as it affects the quality of learning activities. The predominance of external, utilitarian motives among modern youth leads to the fact that learning becomes formal, there is no creative approach, no independent setting of learning goals. It is known that a negative or indifferent attitude to learning can be the reason for a student's poor performance or failure.

Abstract:
Motives and intentions for revisions and amendments in land policies need to be clear and transparent involving all stakeholders, and specially farmers. Possible bureaucratic barriers, withholding the dehqan farmers from registering their activities, need to be better studied and eliminated. The rural community could benefit from formally allowing dehqan farmers to obtain additional land plots for both cropping seasons through transparent market mechanisms. Strong dehqan farms' tenure security with respect to use rights, control rights, and transferability of land rights enhances rural investm

Abstract:
Evidence from this assessment indicates that, without deliberate support from impact investors, banks and development finance institutions (DFIs), large numbers of agricultural small and medium enterprises (agri-SMEs) will not be able to continue operations following the lockdowns imposed in response to Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). The COVID-19 pandemic has had significant negative effects on the operations of agri-SMEs. It has made capital less available, as impact investors and financial institutions take a more cautious approach to extending credit and making investment decisions. S

Full text
Abstract:
Recent work suggests non-financial firms have acted like financial intermediaries particularly in emerging economies. This paper corroborates these findings but then asks "why?" The results indicate evidence for carry-trade activities, but they are focused on countries with higher levels of capital controls, particular controls on inflows. There is little evidence for such activities given other potential motives. It is posited that this phenomenon is due more to the reaction of countries in the face of low global interest rates, quantitative easing and strong capital inflows than incomplete m

Although the health benefits of physical activity are well described for the general population, less is known about the benefits and harms of physical activity in people dependent upon, partially dependent upon, or at risk for needing a wheelchair. This systematic review summarizes the evidence for physical activity in people with multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, and spinal cord injury regardless of current use or nonuse of a wheelchair.

Abstract:
Storybook reading to children is considered an efficient way to provide a meaningful context for exposure to unfamiliar words and grammar (Weizman &amp; Snow, 2001). Nonetheless, children with limited language knowledge (e.g., child MTL learners in Singapore) may benefit less from the reading activities, due to the gap between their skills and those required for processing the narration. They often fail to derive the meaning of unknown words/grammar from the verbal context and consequently have trouble figuring out the story plots (Verhallen &amp; Bus, 2010).
