Five folded maps in pocket.

The new Keynesian wage Phillips curve (NKWPC) is derived from the standard new Keynesian Phillips curve (NKPC) that is examined and verified by many economists. The NKWPC model uses the structural wage equation to present the significant inverse relationship between wage inflation and the unemployment rate in the US economy with the significant assumption of a constant natural rate of unemployment. This study examines the NKWPC model using the generalized method of moments (GMM) and generalized autoregressive conditionally heteroskedastic-M (GARCH-M) to confirm the critical inverse relationship of the Phillips curve. In particular, this study tests the NKWPC separately targeting the official unemployment rate from Komlos (2019)’s real unemployment rate. The estimated results of this study support the NKWPC re-confirming a significant negative relationship between wage inflation and unemployment, using two different econometric techniques of GMM and GARCH-M. Moreover, it is apparent that they do not distinguish the official unemployment rate from the real unemployment rate. The Phillips curve is not just a unicorn, or rarity, in the economic world. It is a substantial indicator and still holds merit. This study yields to another lending support to the importance of the Phillips curve. / Includes bibliography. / Thesis (M.S.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2021. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

Thesis advisor: Robert Murphey / This paper demonstrates that a linear Phillips Curve has neither theoretical nor empirical justification. I first alter the traditional linear model specification to allow for non-linearity between inflation and unemployment. I show that these non-linear models produce greater R2’s than similar linear versions. I provide theoretical justification for the non-linear models and demonstrate why the theoretical reasoning for linear models is flawed. Finally, by introducing the natural rate of unemployment as a separate independent variable, I increase the explanatory power of the model. I allow the natural rate’s marginal effect on inflation to vary with time and suggest a theoretical framework that supports this final model. I conclude that non-linearity and therefore convexity between inflation and unemployment is the correct framework under any time period for Phillips Curve analysis and application. / Thesis (BA) — Boston College, 2017. / Submitted to: Boston College.

O objetivo é avaliar se o repasse cambial para o índice de preços ao consumidor é assimétrico. A metodologia utilizado foi através da estimação de uma Curva de Phillips com Limiar (Threshold) para o IPCA agregado e desagregado, sendo avaliado o período recente de 2001 a 2014. Os resultados apresentaram evidências de assimetria no repasse para os preços para a inflação agregada, porém não significante para a maioria dos núcleos analisados.

"One of the many writers who have contributed to the 'Southern Literary Renaissance' of the past twenty-five or thirty years is a young Mississippi author, Thomas Hal Phillips, whose first novel was written in lieu of a Master's thesis about 1948 and was published in book form in 1950. Since that time he has written four more novels, one of which has been published only in England. In general, these novels have been favorably received by the critics, several of whom have predicted that Mr. Phillips is on the threshold of what will prove to be a very notable career. Although he has been writing only about ten years, his achievement is already substantial. Since Mr. Phillips is already recognized as a worthy novelist and the indications are that his fame is rising rapidly, he seemed a suitable subject for a bio-bibliography. This study has been particularly interesting to the student because Mr. Phillips was born in, lives in, and writes about the region that is native to her as well as to him. Its purpose is to make available for future reference, biographical and bibliographical material which has hitherto not been available in any one place"--Introduction. / "February, 1957." / At head of title: Florida State University. / Typescript. / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts." / Advisor: Sarah Rebecca Reed, Professor Directing Paper. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 60-66).

This dissertation assesses--from an evangelical perspective--Phillips Brooks's classic definition of preaching as "truth through personality" and, after pinpointing its substantial deficiencies, reconstructs it with evangelical doctrines. Chapter 1 describes the legacy of Brooks's definition among evangelicals. Chapter 2 provides the contextual information necessary for evaluating Brooks's thought, with attention given to the way that he responded to the influences of romanticism in the late nineteenth century. Chapter 3 unveils Christ's incarnation as the foundation for Brooks's preaching definition, and observes the way that his formulation and anthropocentric application of the doctrine shapes his "truth through personality" concept. Chapter 4 evaluates Brooks's definition in light of evangelical foundations for preaching, and identifies its three significant dangers. First, "truth through personality" promotes a nonpropositional form of revelation in which the preacher's thoughts on truth trump the truthfulness of Scripture. Second, the definition forces too close an association between God's Word and the preacher by conceiving preaching as a replica of the incarnation--an ontological impossibility and an unbiblical notion. Third, "truth through personality" embraces a classical form of rhetorical ethos that is consistent with Quintillian, but inadmissible in Christian preaching. Tested against Pauline literature, Brooks's approach to ethos appears biblically deficient and adverse to the gospel. Chapter 5 proposes that the phrase, "truth through personality," best serves preaching when conceived as an axiom and not as a definition, and asserts that an evangelical construction of the phrase emerges only from biblical anthropological and soteriological doctrines. Constructing the phrase in an evangelical manner, though, requires three clarifications. First, preaching extends God's mode of special revelation-- through human personality--not ontologically or phenomenologically, but functionally as a means of accommodating human weakness. Second, preaching--as a person-to-person encounter--forms a means by which God accomplishes his saving work. Third, when informed by evangelical anthropology and soteriology, "truth through personality" maintains the notion of the preacher as a personal witness to a divine message, not as another incarnation. Finally, the chapter discusses the practical implications of an evangelical construction of "truth through personality," including personal presentation and sermon application. / This item is only available to students and faculty of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.
