Findings from the Tushirikiane-4-MH (supporting each other for mental health) mobile health–supported virtual reality randomized controlled trial among urban refugee youth in Kampala, Uganda
Virtual reality (VR) for mental health promotion remains understudied in low-income humanitarian settings. We examined the effectiveness of VR in reducing depression with urban refugee youth in Kampala, Uganda. This randomized controlled trial assessed VR alone (Arm 1), VR followed by Group Problem Management Plus (GPM+) (Arm 2) and a control group (Arm 3), with a peer-driven and convenience sample of refugee youth aged 16–25 in Kampala. The prim…

Financing of Unemployment Compensation
Among management, labor leaders, academic experts, and government administrators the division of opinion on the financing of unemployment compensation is much more pronounced and profound than is true of the other social insurances--Old-Age, Survivors, and Disability Insurance, workmen's compensation, or temporary disability insurance. This paper attempts to put in perspective the magnitude of unemployment compensation taxes and to analyze three …

Reflections on Collective Bargaining in Britain and Sweden
British and Swedish collective bargaining patterns have often been cited as models of labor-management deportment, characterized by calm, factual, and reasoned negotiation, oriented to the needs of the national economy and uncomplicated by interunion rivalries and employer individualism. In this critical examination of recent experience in the two countries, the author finds that environmental differences have produced significant differences in …

A Range Theory of Wage Differentials
The unsatisfactory nature of traditional wage theory as an explanation for interfirm differences in wages is probably so well known as to need no comment. Less obvious, however, has been the nature of the analysis that could be substituted in its place. Drawing upon the empirical studies of labor markets made by, among others, Myers, Shister, Reynolds, Shultz, and himself, Professor Lester advances the hypothesis that theoretical analysis of wage…

Wage Diversity and Its Theoretical Implications
ECONOMISTS who have made detailed comparative studies of wage rates within a plant or between plants in the same labormarket area are struck by the haphazard variations in such rates and by the irrationality of many intraplant and interplant differentials in wages.2 Actual wage facts seem contrary to what one might expect according to conventional wage theory. Demand and supply do not eliminate gross inequities or gross irrationality.3 Perfect co…
