Health Insurance: The Pro-Competition Proposals

For more than a decade, Congress and the Executive Branch have tried to stem spiraling health care costs through various regulatory actions at the Federal and State levels. Planning laws, for example, focus regulatory attention on the capacity of the health care industry to provide health services. Other laws have created programs to monitor and control the use of services provided to individual patients. Direct wage and price controls were applied to the health industry in the early 1970's and in recent years Congress has debated whether to impose controls over hospital spending in the United States. This report discusses the debate surrounding various approaches to lower health care costs.

Pattern Selection and Competition in Near-Integrable Systems (open access)

Pattern Selection and Competition in Near-Integrable Systems

Pattern selection and competition in certain near-integrable systems are discussed. These systems provide models for controlled studies of low dimensional attractors in high (infinite) dimensional systems. Four examples from damped, driven pendulum rings are summarized in the order of increasing spatial complexity of their chaotic attractors. These examples illustrate the use of numerical and analytical techniques from soliton mathematics to study properties of chaotic attractors. In particular, the connection of (unperturbed) homoclinic states with instabilities of spatial patterns, with interactions between patterns, and as possible sources of temporal chaos is emphasized. 16 refs., 9 figs.

The Effects of Anxiety on the Performance of Collegiate Golfers in Competitive and Non-Competitive Situations (open access)

The Effects of Anxiety on the Performance of Collegiate Golfers in Competitive and Non-Competitive Situations

The purposes of the study were to provide additional information concerning the relationship of Competition Trait Anxiety, State Anxiety, and Performance in collegiate golfers under non-competitive and competitive field settings. Subjects were thirty college males. Data were analyzed by a three-way analysis of variance with repeated measures. Conclusions of the investigation were (1) low-Competition-Trait-Anxious golfers performed better and exhibited lower levels of state anxiety than high-and moderate-Competitive-Trait-Anxious golfers in competitive and non-competitive settings; (2) collegiate golfers exhibit higher levels of state anxiety in competitive versus practice settings; and (3) there was a significant relationship between SCAT and pre-competitive state anxiety.

Electric Power Wheeling and Dealing: Technological Considerations for Increasing Competition (open access)

Electric Power Wheeling and Dealing: Technological Considerations for Increasing Competition

This assessment analyzes how the Nation’s power systems could accommodate various proposals for competition intended to make the electric power industry more responsive to market forces. Operation of an electric power system is extremely complex, and increased competition could have serious effects on costs and reliability if not implemented carefully. The assessment identifies the technical requirements that must be met to keep the system working well as the level of competition increases, and determines how competitive enterprises could meet these requirements.

International competition in services: banking building software know-how-- (open access)

International competition in services: banking building software know-how--

The international competitiveness of American firms in most manufacturing industries has been in decline, in large part because of growing competence in other parts of the world. As this assessment shows, the United States remains highly competitive in many service industries, But trade in services will remain small compared to trade in goods, and many of the benefits from foreign investments by American service firms accrue to the host nations where U.S.-based banks, insurance companies, accounting firms, and other suppliers of services do business, Services cannot right the Nation’s trade balance, even granting the many ways in which a strongly competitive service sector benefits the competitiveness of American manufacturing firms.

Design + energy: results of a national student design competition (open access)

Design + energy: results of a national student design competition

A national competition for students in schools of architecture was conducted during the Spring of 1980. The competition was the first of a series of competitions that emphasized the integration of architectural design and energy considerations in medium-scale building projects, and specifically applying passive solar design strategies and the appropriate use of brick masonry materials. Some 300 faculty members and over 2200 students representing 80 of the 92 US architecture schools participated in the program. A summary is presented of the program and the range of submissions grouped by problem types and general climatic region.

Grain Quality in International Trade: A Comparison of Major U.S. Competitors

This report is one of two that the Office of Technology Assessment completed in an assessment of the issues in grain quality for Congress. The first, Enhancing the Quality of U.S. Grain in International Trade, focuses on the U.S. grain system and possible changes within that system to enhance grain quality. To consider this issue fully, it is important to understand the grain systems of major competitors, a subject covered in this report.

Shape competition and alignment processes in light Au and Pt nuclei (open access)

Shape competition and alignment processes in light Au and Pt nuclei

Calculations are presented and data are reviewed on the properties of the high-j states in the light Au nuclei. Both prolate and oblate structures are observed in this region. It is found that the collective model describes well the band-head and the high-spin properties of the h/sub 9/2/ and i/sub 13/2/ proton states, without resort to an ''intruder state'' phenomenology.

Automobile materials competition: energy implications of fiber-reinforced plastics (open access)

Automobile materials competition: energy implications of fiber-reinforced plastics

The embodied energy, structural weight, and transportation energy (fuel requirement) characteristics of steel, fiber-reinforced plastics, and aluminum were assessed to determine the overall energy savings of materials substitution in automobiles. In body panels, a 1.0-lb steel component with an associated 0.5 lb in secondary weight is structurally equivalent to a 0.6-lb fiber-reinforced plastic component with 0.3 lb in associated secondary weight or a 0.5-lb aluminum component with 0.25 lb of secondary weight. (Secondary weight refers to the combined weight of the vehicle's support structure, engine, braking system, and drive train, all of which can be reduced in response to a decrease in total vehicle weight.) The life cycle transportation energy requirements of structurally equivalent body panels (including their associated secondary weights) are 174.4 x 10/sup 3/ Btu for steel, 104.6 x 10/sup 3/ Btu for fiber-reinforced plastics, and 87.2 x 10/sup 3/ Btu for aluminum. The embodied energy requirements are 37.2 x 10/sup 3/ Btu for steel, 22.1 x 10/sup 3/ Btu for fiber-reinforced plastics, and 87.1 x 10/sup 3/ Btu for aluminum. These results can be combined to yield total energy requirements of 211.6 x 10/sup 3/ Btu for steel, 126.7 x 10/sup 3/ Btu for fiber-reinforced plastics, and …
