- Title
THE BEHAVIORAL COSTS OF ECONOMIC INSTABILITY.
- Authors
Catalano, Ralph; Dooley, David
- Abstract
This paper reviews the literature reporting a connection between economic change and behavioral disorder. The literature is separated into individual and aggregate based research and the methodological issues raised by each approach are described. The implications of the research findings for illness prevention, remedial service and economic policymaking are discussed. The authors argue that the social costs of mobile capital should be accounted and internalized because social justice as well as Economic and Psychological theory assumes that an individual should bear the costs of his or her behavior.
