Contribution of Psychological, Social, and Mechanical Work Exposures to Low Work Ability
2015
Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine
Objective: To determine the contribution of specific psychological, social, and mechanical work exposures to the self-reported low level of work ability. ...
Mechanical exposures were not predictive. ...
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The authors are grateful to Jan Olav Christensen, Morten Birkeland Nielsen, and Live Bakke Finne for valuable discussions. We ...

Mechanism Design for Demand Response Programs
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
This creates an incentive for agents to inflate their baselines. We propose a novel self-reported baseline mechanism (SRBM) where each agent reports its baseline and marginal utility. ...
Called agents are paid for observed reductions from their self-reported baselines. Agents who are not called face penalties for consumption shortfalls below their baselines. ...
It happens that for our self reported baseline mechanism (detailed in Section IV), truthful reporting is the dominant strategy. ...

A Minimal Incentive-based Demand Response Program With Self Reported Baseline Mechanism
[article]
2019
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we propose a novel incentive based Demand Response (DR) program with a self reported baseline mechanism. ...
Finally, we also show that the proposed method of self-reported baseline outperforms other baseline estimation methods commonly used in practice. ...
Incentive-Based Demand Response Program The SO signals a DR event when the market price exceeds the TMC price. The novel DR program that we propose comprises a self-reported baseline mechanism. ...

The role of orexin-1 receptor signaling in demand for the opioid fentanyl
2019
Neuropsychopharmacology
Baseline α values predicted SB efficacy, such that SB was most effective at reducing motivation (increasing α) in highly motivated rats. ...
Orexin-1 receptor (OxR1) antagonism reduces demand for cocaine and remifentanil, indicating that orexin-based therapies may reduce demand for many classes of abused drugs. ...
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The authors would like to thank Veronica Behman for her assistance in performing behavioral experiments for this study. ...

Psychological, social, and mechanical work exposures and disability retirement: a prospective registry study
2017
BMC Public Health
To determine effects of self-reported work exposures on risk of disability retirement hazard ratios (HR) and 99% confidence intervals (99% CI) were calculated with Cox regression analysis. ...
Effects of sex, age group, skill level, sickness absence in the last three years, and work exposures estimated to be confounders were accounted for. ...

2020
BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders
Pain at baseline was the strongest predictor for pain at follow-up in both body regions. ...
Pain in the elbows/hands at follow-up was associated with high sensory demands at baseline (PR 1.63; CI 1.08-2.45), and among participants without pain at baseline high sensory demands predicted elbow/ ...

Examination of the double burden hypothesis—a systematic review of work–family conflict and sickness absence
2017
European Journal of Public Health
Conclusion: Work-family conflict is associated with later sickness absence, and work-family conflict is more common for women than for men. ...
The double-burden hypothesis suggests this is due to higher work-family burden in women than men. ...
Acknowledgement We wish to thank librarian Wenche Jacobsen at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health for teaching us systematic search strategies and for being such a nice person. ...
