    Abstract : In this dissertation, we analyze the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of the Steam Sterilizer, popularly known as Autoclave. The LCA will help Getinge Sterilization AB to identify the stages of the life cycle of Autoclave model GSS-P 91413, which contributes more to the environmental footprint. READ MORE

  5. 5. The Negative Externality of Peer Group Income: Evidence from Three Developed Economies

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

    Author : Jón Sjúrður Pálsson Arge; [2021]
    Keywords : happiness economics; social comparison; peer group income; Easterlin Paradox; Business and Economics;

    Abstract : This paper examines the effect of peer group household income on happiness in three developed economies: the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom, where we define peer groups by age, gender, and education. Using the most recent panel waves from the General Social Survey (GSS) and the European Social Survey (ESS), we find comparable results from all three countries, namely a negative coefficient of peer group household income that is statistically not different in absolute magnitude from the coefficient of the respondent’s own household income.
