The Effects of Temporal Aggregation on Midas Regressions
Time series used in practice are often temporal aggregates. A MIDAS regression model may be fitted wrongly assuming the independent variables are not aggregated when in fact they are. We derive the correct model’s specification under temporal aggregation of the independent variables, thus identifying the correct number of dynamic terms and the order of the MA component. We also show that these depend on the frequency of the variables and the aggr…
Self-Fulfilling Debt Crises with Long Stagnations
Impact of Covid-19 on the Environments of Professional Nursing Practice and Nurses’ Job Satisfaction
(1) Background: The repercussions of work environments were widely studied before the pandemic. However, there are still many difficulties to be discovered considering the impact generated by it. Thus, this study aimed to analyse the impact of COVID-19 on nursing practice environments and nurses' job satisfaction. (2) Methods: A correlational study was conducted in a hospital in northern Portugal, with the participation of 416 registered nurses. …
Adaptation and Validation of the Individual Lifestyle Profile Scale of Portuguese Older Adults Living at Home
(1) Background: Unadjusted lifestyles have been the main cause of risk for the loss of years of healthy life. However, currently valid and reliable instruments to assess the lifestyles of the elderly are quite long and difficult to interpret. For this reason, the objective of this study was to adapt and validate the 'Individual Lifestyle Profile' (ILP) scale in a sample of elderly people; (2) Methods: A methodological study was carried out and a …
From Health Literacy to Self-Care: Contributions of the Specialist Nurse in Rehabilitation Nursing
(1) Background: Initiatives aimed at assessing and intervening in health literacy have the potential to promote adherence to self-care behaviours, which is the main focus of intervention by rehabilitation nurses. Thus, the objectives were to analyse the level of health literacy of working-age citizens and identify priority areas for intervention by rehabilitation nurses. (2) Methods: Quantitative, correlational and cross-sectional study, conducte…
Multidimensional Frailty and Lifestyles of Community-Dwelling Older Portuguese Adults
(1) Background: Lifestyles are referred to as conditioning factors for the frailty of older adults. However, there are few studies that explore its association. The objective of the present study is to analyze the association between sociodemographic, clinical, and lifestyle factors of older adults people with multidimensional frailty. (2) Methods: Descriptive and correlational study carried out with older adults people registered in a Health Uni…
Optimal Cooperative Taxation in the Global Economy
How should countries cooperate in setting fiscal and trade policies when government expenditures must be financed with distorting taxes? We show that even if countries cannot make explicit transfers to each other, every point on the Pareto frontier is production efficient, so that international trade and capital flows should be effectively free. Trade agreements must be supplemented with fiscal policy agreements. Residence-based income tax system…

O presente artigo tem como objetivo analisar e discutir os movimentos Occupy Wall Street (EUA) e Los Indignados (15M – Espanha) por entendermos que estes represen…
Is Quantity Theory Still Alive
This article investigates whether the quantity theory of money is still alive. We demonstrate three insights. First, for countries with low inflation, the raw relationship between average inflation and the growth rate of money is tenuous at best. Second, the fit markedly improves, when correcting for variation in output growth and the opportunity cost of money, using elasticities implied by the theories of Baumol–Tobin and Miller–Orr. Finally, a …
Optimal Fiscal and Monetary Policy: Equivalence Results
In this article, we analyze the implications of price-setting restrictions for the conduct of cyclical fiscal and monetary policy. We consider standard monetary economies that differ in the price-setting restrictions imposed on the firms. We show that, independently of the degree or type of price stickiness, it is possible to implement the same efficient set of allocations and that each allocation in that set is implemented with policies that are…
