“…Carers also reported moderate psychological distress as measured by K10, consistent with other population-based studies of carers (Szmukler et al 1998; Train et al 2001). Possibly reflecting the chronicity of illness of most of the SHIP participants and the close relationship between them and their carers, there was no improvement in the carers’ psychological health at follow-up within the context of SHIP participants receiving treatment from community mental health services.…”

“…This has yielded samples with unclear representation of the full range of carers limiting the generalisability of findings (Ohaeri, 2003). Due to the small number of longitudinal population-based caregiving studies (Szmukler et al 1998; Train et al 2001; van Wijngaarden et al 2003; Shibre et al 2012), improvement or deterioration of carers’ health and wellbeing over time is unclear (Shibre et al 2012). There is a need for a representative longitudinal study of carers and their relatives with psychosis to provide greater understanding of their circumstances in order to improve service planning (Pirkis et al 2010).…”

“…Generic health and social servicesmeaning non-specialist dementia care services-deliver the bulk of care and support for people with dementia and their carers, but are often provided without available specialist knowledge. Wide-spread problems are cited in different generic care fields: primary care (Audit Commission, 2000;Hout et al, 2000;Iliffe et al, 2000;Alzheimer Nederland, 2001b); general hospital care (Koning, 1994;Slaets et al, 1997;Holmes et al, 2002); and social care, comprising home care, day care and care homes (Ballard et al, 2001;Train et al, 2001;Gezondheidsraad, 2002;Audit Commission, 2002a). Such problems were similar in both countries, especially in terms of diagnosis, information and support and dealing with behavioural problems (Kümpers et al, 2005).…”

Knowledge transfer (KT) between specialist and generic services is widely seen as an important strategy for improving the quality of integrated dementia care. This article elaborates on intra- and inter-organizational features associated with successful KT. A provisional conceptual framework is suggested, based on literature about inter-organizational networks and knowledge management. Professional and organizational cultures, domain perceptions, perceived dependency and the availability of resources are suggested as significant influences upon the motivation and perceived capacity to engage in KT. Personal and organizational continuity is identified as an important process quality. Data from four local case studies in England and The Netherlands are used to develop and specify the provisional framework. A conceptual model is built to explain the relative success or failure of KT.

“…In addition to incorporating Γ, the mixed logit specification is a highly flexible model that allows individual heterogeneity to interact with product characteristics. It also relaxes the independence of irrelevant alternatives assumption of the multinomial logit model (Train, 2002). In our mixed logit model, by substituting Equation 6 into 5, the decision utility function is re-written as follows: 6 The product attributes X ij depend on consumer index i because they include the individual-level subjective product risks.…”

Electronic cigarettes are a less harmful alternative to combustible cigarettes. We analyze data on e-cigarette choices in an online experimental market. Our data and mixed logit model capture two sources of consumer optimization errors: overestimates of the relative risks of e-cigarettes and present bias. Our novel data and policy analysis make three contributions. First, our predictions about e-cigarette use under counterfactual policy scenarios provide new information about current regulatory tradeoffs. Second, we provide empirical evidence about the role consumer optimization errors play in tobacco product choices. Third, we contribute to behavioral welfare analysis of policies that address individual optimization errors. Compared with standard cost-benefit analysis, our behavioral welfare economics analysis leads to much larger estimates of the costs of policies that discourage e-cigarette use or the benefits of policies that encourage e-cigarette use.

Vaping e-cigarettes is not harmless but poses much lower risks than smoking combustible tobacco. 1 The vaping market has rapidly evolved. The first modern vaping products were introduced in U.S. markets around 2007. Annual sales grew rapidly from $500 million in 2012 to $6.6 billion in 2018 (Cowen and Company Equity Research, 2019). In 2018 data for adults, 9.7% of current smokers, 25.2% of recent (past-year) former smokers, and 4.2% of nonrecent former smokers regularly vape, compared with 1.1% of never smokers. 2 The adult current smoking rate was 19.8% in 2007 when e-cigarettes were introduced into the U.S. market and has declined to 13.7% in 2018 (American Lung Association, 2020; Creamer et al., 2019). Public policy towards vaping is also evolving. Vaping products were regulated as ordinary consumer products until 2016. In May 2016, the FDA issued a rule phasing in regulation of vaping products as tobacco products (FDA, 2016). In early 2020, the FDA announced new enforcement priorities that amount to at least a temporary ban of cartridge-based flavored e-cigarettes (other than menthol) (FDA, 2020a). In addition to the FDA, states, counties, and municipalities 1 Section 2 below provides more discussion of the evidence on the relative risks of vaping and smoking. Unless otherwise stated, we refer to the action of using e-cigarette products as vaping and the action of using any combustible tobacco product as smoking.
