Sea level rise (SLR) dynamics pose significant challenges to coastal residential markets, including the likelihood of property valuation disruptions and the relocation of coastal populations from areas of high risk to safer inland locales. Understanding its impact on the residential markets of coastal cities is essential for developing adaptation and mitigation strategies. Existing studies primarily focus on property prices to observe risk factors, which limits the ability to capture the diverse behaviors and responses of market participants, including sellers, buyers, and lenders, to climate change impacts.

Background: Physician assistants/associates (PAs), due to their broad medical education and certification, have the flexibility to change specialties throughout their careers. Prior studies suggest that between half and three-quarters exercise this option at some point in their career, and a third do so within the first decade. However, more research is needed to understand the factors associated with PAs changing vs.

Objectives: The multifaceted ways in which genomics can be valuable to clinicians, patients, families, and society are important for informing prioritisation decisions by policy makers. This study aims to develop a standardised, cumulative and preference-weighted Genomic Utility Valuation (GUV) on a scale 0-100%.
Methods: A multicriteria decision analysis (MCDA) was conducted with experts involved in policy, clinical, research, and consumer advocacy leadership in Australia for the valuation of policy priority indicators of genomic utility.

Background: The "loss of control" over drug consumption, present in opioid use disorder (OUD) and known as escalation of intake, is well-established in preclinical rodent models. However, little is known about how antecedent behavioral characteristics, such as valuation of hedonic reinforcers prior to drug use, may impact the trajectory of fentanyl intake over time. Moreover, it is unclear if distinct escalation phenotypes may be driven by genetic markers predictive of OUD susceptibility.

This paper investigates individuals' averting behavior that utilizes a durable good, high-functioning air purifiers, to reduce risk from exposure to coarse (PM) and fine (PM) particulate matter, to estimate a value of statistical life (VSL) for use in benefit-cost analysis in South Korea. We present an interactive risk ladder, developed specifically for this study, to 1218 respondents in a national web-based contingent valuation survey to elicit their perceived risks from the exposure to PM and PM with and without the use of high-functioning air purifiers (i.e.
