The findings show that a lack of education or a low level of education significantly increases the desire to go abroad even without the required documents. This statement is more strongly made by those with relatively low levels of social capital.

It is shown that those who do not use AIs in their jobs maintain a traditional pattern of retirement, with the most educated and/or healthy among them extending their working lives. In contrast, the retirement pattern for AI-using workers changes, and it is the users who derive the most benefit from AIs who will extend their working lives. This is because AIs compensate for the skills that tend to deteriorate with age, thus allowing for greater permanence in the labour market.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":46094,"journal":{"name":"Research in Economics","volume":"79 3","pages":"Article 101062"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144297690","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Notably, the escalating cost of weddings imposes a disproportionate economic strain, often at odds with more substantive long-term aims such as child welfare, financial resilience, and domestic stability. This study explores how the rising cost of weddings intersects with emotional, economic, and sociocultural constraints to shape marital decisions and long-term household outcomes. It introduces a constrained intertemporal utility model that conceptualizes marriage as an optimization problem. The model incorporates an objective function focused on long-term household and child well-being, constrained by factors such as income, education, wealth, emotional attachment, divorce costs, child support obligations, family norms, and cultural pressures. The analysis yields eight key propositions. The analyses suggest that financial stress from lavish weddings, delayed educational investments, and external social pressures negatively affect marital satisfaction and child outcomes. Conversely, balanced financial planning and cultural alignment are associated with greater household stability. The model highlights how economic and social trade-offs at the point of marriage formation can have enduring consequences. Policy implications include the need for broader social awareness around the economic burden of weddings and more supportive frameworks for long-term family welfare.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":46094,"journal":{"name":"Research in Economics","volume":"79 3","pages":"Article 101064"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144185693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While cyber insurance has attracted much attention and optimism, interdependent cyber risks and lack of actuarial data have prompted some insurers to adopt a more proactive role, not only insuring losses but also assisting clients with preventive work such as managed detection and response solutions, i.e., investments in their own cybersecurity. The purpose of this paper is to propose and theoretically investigate yet a further extension of this role, where insurers facilitate security investments between interdependent firms, which get the opportunity to invest a share of their insurance premiums to improve the security of each other. It is demonstrated that if insurers can facilitate such investments, then under common theoretical assumptions this can make a positive contribution to overall welfare. The paper is concluded by a discussion of the relevance and applicability of this theoretical contribution in practice.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":46094,"journal":{"name":"Research in Economics","volume":"79 3","pages":"Article 101059"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143738962","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unlike the commonly used fixed transition probability models, the TVP specification allows the transition probabilities between states to depend on explanatory variables, which in this context are geopolitical risk factors.
