La gouvernance hospitalière : quelques réflexions à partir de la gouvernance d'entreprise
2010
La transposition de la problématique de la gouvernance d’entreprise à la gouvernance hospitalière conduit à étudier les éventuels liens de causalité entre les systèmes de gouvernance visant à réguler les comportements des dirigeants de l’hôpital et la performance de ce type d’organisation. L’objectif de cet article est à la lumière de l’organisation des hôpitaux dans le contexte français associé à la récente réforme HPST (1) de préciser ce que peut être une gouvernance hospitalière dans cette perspective ; (2) d’analyser la question de la latitude managériale en fonction de la structuration des pouvoirs dans le cadre de l’hôpital ; (3) d’identifier les principales parties prenantes impliqué…
Multidimensional Health Modelling: Association between Socioeconomic Factors and Health in Latvia
2012
This paper proposes new approach for modelling self-assessed health. We find that the concept of health is too complicated to measure effects of health determinants using a one-dimensional econometric model. We apply two-dimensional stereotype logistic model that allows capturing nonmonotonicity in effects of factors and revealing significant effects that remain unrevealed if single dimension models, such as ordered logit or ordered probit, are used. Modelling self-assessed health using multi-dimensional stereotype logit provides higher model goodness of fit and quality measures in comparison to ordered probit model. Multi-dimensional stereotype logit is applied to estimate association betw…
Association Between Self-Assessed Health and Attitude Towards Own Health
2014
This paper explores association between health and attitude towards own health in two dimensions – taking care of own health and lifestyle. We apply two-dimensional stereotype logit model to estimate association between self-assessed health and attitude towards health, after accounting for socioeconomic factors. We find evidence of strong positive association between health status and (perceived) taking care of own health and lifestyle. Analysis of perception of the two concepts – "taking care of own health" and "healthy lifestyle" – provides insights into possible reasons of not very good indicators of health behaviour among Latvian population.
Should Contact Bans Have Been Lifted More in Germany?
2020
Abstract Many countries consider the lifting of restrictions of social contacts (RSC). We quantify the effects of RSC for Germany. We initially employ a purely statistical approach to predicting prevalence of Covid-19 if RSC had been upheld after 20 April. We employ these findings and feed them into our theoretical model. We find that the peak of the number of sick individuals would have been reached already end of April. The number of sick individuals would have fallen below 1000 at the beginning of July. If restrictions had been lifted completely on April 20, the number of sick should have risen quickly again from around 27 April. A balance between economic and individual costs of RSC and…
Multidimensional health modeling: Association between socioeconomic and psychosocial factors and health in Latvia
2009
This research aims at estimating association between socioeconomic and psychosocial factors on the one hand and health in Latvia on the other hand. While information on association between socioeconomic determinants of population health in Latvia is scarce, effect of psychosocial resources on individual health in this country hasn’t been estimated before. We find empirical support for the association between different psychosocial factors and physical health in Latvia. This paper proposes new approach for modelling self-assessed health. We find that the concept of health is too complicated to measure effects of health determinants using a one-dimensional econometric model. We apply two-dime…
