Structural Effects of Agent Heterogeneity in Agent-Based Models
Modeling human behavior in the context of social systems in which we are embedded realistically requires capturing the underlying heterogeneity in human populations. However, trade-offs associated with different approaches to introducing heterogeneity could either enhance or obfuscate our understanding of outcomes and the processes by which they are generated. Thus, the question arises: how to incorporate heterogeneity when modeling human behavio…
The gendered implications of energy gaps in health care
Delivering quality primary health care requires reliable energy access. In rural health facilities, electricity is often unreliable or absent. Low energy access has a gendered impact, affecting the ability of mothers to experience safe childbirth, for which basic lighting and sterilization are essential. Moreover, low energy access acts as a barrier to attract and retain female medical staff, who constitute women-predominated nursing and midwifer…
