Abstract

This study estimates the value of statistical life (VSL) on a road traffic accident using the Contingent Valuation/Standard Gamble chained approach. A large representative sample (n = 2020) is used to calculate a VSL for use in the evaluation of road safety programmes in Spain. The paper also makes some methodological contributions, by providing new evidence about the consistency of the chained method.

Resumen

Una parte importante de la morbimortalidad se debe a hábitos de vida y factores de riesgo modificables. Una estrategia prometedora para promover el cambio de tales factores pasa por la aplicación de intervenciones de salud pública basadas en la economía del comportamiento, rama del conocimiento que combina principios psicológicos y económicos

Objetivo

En este trabajo se cuestiona si el desarrollo del Sistema de Autonomía y Atención a la Dependencia (SAAD) contribuyó a incrementar el volumen de recursos del sistema público de servicios sociales (efecto desplazamiento) o, por el contrario, si dicho desarrollo se produjo a costa del resto de prestaciones de servicios sociales (efecto sustitución).

Abstract

Traffic accidents are both a major economic and public health problem worldwide. The authors use data from the May 2016 Spanish barometer (n = 1632) to analyse the characteristics of drivers who declare different types of risky driving behaviours. The authors’ estimates suggest that the likelihood of being a high-risk driver in Spain increases with educational attainment and decreases with age.

Resumen

La revisión efectuada del impacto que poseen los factores puramente demográficos en la evolu-ción del gasto sanitario público en España sugiere que su incidencia es limitada. La preponderan-cia otorgada históricamente a la edad cronológica como factor determinante del crecimiento del gasto se ve muy atenuada, en estudios más recientes, cuando se toma en consideración la proxi-midad a la muerte.

Abstract

Traffic accidents are a major public health concern since they are the leading cause of death for those aged 15–29 years and the ninth cause of death worldwide. In this paper, we estimate the overall effect on traffic fatalities of the introduction of the Penalty Point System (PPS) in Spain in 2006, jointly with those of the publicity campaigns that went with it and the reform of the Penal Code to toughen the consequences of traffic offenses in 2007.

Abstract

Parkinson’s disease is a chronic disease affecting quality of life and well-being. Cost utility analyses is a method of determining the cost effectiveness of nursing interventions. These analyses are performed using data from preference based questionnaires.

Abstract

This analysis of the Spanish health system reviews recent developments in organization and governance, health financing, health care provision, health reforms and health system performance. Overall health status continues to improve in Spain, and life expectancy is the highest in the European Union. Inequalities in self-reported health have also declined in the last decade, although long-standing disability and chronic conditions are increasing due to an ageing population.

Abstract:

Objectives: The aim of this study was to compare the Parkinson’s Disease Questionnaire-8 (PDQ-8) with three multi-attribute utility (MAU) instruments (EQ-5D-3L, EQ-5D-5L, and 15D) and to develop mapping algorithms that could be used to transform PDQ-8 scores into MAU scores.

Abstract

Preferences elicited with matching and choice usually diverge (as characterised by preference reversals), violating a basic rationality requirement, namely,  procedure invariance. Continuar leyendo «Reducing preference reversals: the role of preference imprecision and non-transparent methods»
