A Lindner-led team spearheaded by University of Cincinnati PhD candidate Sharmeen Merchant published “Gender Differences on Dual-Earners’ Money as Achievement Congruence and Needs-Supplies Fit" in the Journal of Business and Psychology. This research took an in-depth look at the psychological role money plays in households with two sources of income, and showed how a couple's alignment on financial needs impacts job fulfillment. 

A new study reveals the global and national economic costs of diabetes and offers strategies to reduce them.

Researchers developed a biorefinery model in BioSTEAM to evaluate industrial-grade azelaic acid production from high-oleic soybean oil using the two-step oxidative cleavage (TSOC) process. The modeled system demonstrated the potential for financially viable azelaic acid production from high-oleic soybean oil and the utility of techno-economic analysis (TEA) and life cycle assessment (LCA) for evaluating and improving performance. The open-source modeling framework developed can be readily applied to assess azelaic acid production from other high-oleic vegetable oils and emerging lipid feedstocks by adjusting composition, cost, and process assumptions.

Tariff policies supporting the growth of domestic industries can aid in building a resilient economy. A new study from Doshisha University and Kobe University uses a two-country model to investigate how import tariffs influence productivity growth through their effects on industry location. Based on varied location and economy conditions, similar policies may have very different outcomes. Understanding these trade-offs assists policy makers frame policies that promote long-term growth and provides better outcomes.
