This paper is the third in a series describing extensive empirical verification (by parameter estimation) of the Disaggregated Residential Allocation Model (DRAM). The first paper in this series, Putman and Ducca (1978a), described procedures for estimating the parameters of this type of model when trip interchange (O-D trip matrices) are unavailable. The second paper in this series, Putman and Ducca (1978b), described the results of estimating parameters in this way for a dozen US cities. This paper continues the work with parameter estimation for more than a dozen disparate non-US cities. The results lend even greater confirmation of the descriptive validity of this type of model.

<p>The aim of this study is to investigate external debt sustainability using the periodic unit root<br />rest with structural break which is introduced by Boswijk and Franses (1995) and then<br />developed by Evans (2006). In order to test the hypothesis, we use quarterly Turkish data<br />measuring the ratio of external debt stock to GDP that covers the period from the first quarter<br />of 1990 to the third quarter of 2012. The empirical results support that the ratio of external<br />debt stock to GDP has the periodic behavior under structural change and follows a<br />nonstationary periodic process with structural break. According to the empirical findings, it is<br />argued that the external debt is unsustainable in Turkey.</p>

This article is the second in a series of three on the sectional title industry in South Africa. (The first article dealt with perspectives of accounting and auditing practitioners and the third article in the series will address the perspectives of chairmen or bodies corporate.) The aim of this article was to provide an overview of practical problems experienced by managing agents in the sectional title industry in South Africa by way of interviewing a sample of key role players in the industry. The empirical results revealed various practical challenges and uncertainties in the industry. Various problems and concerns were addressed and practical recommendations were made that can be of assistance to owners, trustees, managing agents, accountants and auditing professionals. The findings can also be used as a valuable basis for further research

Egarch Model

Using the stock index data of financial sector spanned from January 2, 2009 to December 31, 2014, this study examines the effects of some policies on stock returns and volatility in Vietnamese stock market. The empirical results of EGARCH model reveal that two policies, namely, M&A and VAMC have an significantly positive impact on stock returns but they do not represent any effects on stock volatility. The third policy, regulatory reform, does not show any affection on stock return but it has an impact on the stock volatility. It implies that investors should adjust and alter their portfolio accordingly when changing policies. Besides, policymaker needs to know when they should prioritize which policy to be issued because some policies sometimes can hurt the stock market if the stock market is efficient.

Psychological Parameter

The model of two types of ambivalence of student’s confidence in the teacher is presented - positive and negative. Integration of psychological parameter ("psychological health" of the subject of the trust) determined by features of a ratio of trust/mistrust and a formalized (construct of the measurement of ambivalence) determined by method of measurement and statistical technology of the analysis of data is the basis for differentiation. In longitudinal analysis and taking into account the contradictoriness of the trust object as the determinant of ambivalence, an empirical verification of the validity of the model was carried out on the sample of students (N = 78) and teachers (N = 4). The statistically significant prevalence of students with a negative ambivalence of confidence in a controversial (liberal) style compared to a consecutive (authoritarian) one is established. A decrease (statistically reliable in the liberal style) of the proportion of such students as the time of interaction with teachers has been increased. The empirical results are interpreted substantively.
