The Individual

This study examined genetic and environmental influences on older women’s personal goals by using data from the Finnish Twin Study on Aging. The interview for the personal goals was completed by 67 monozygotic (MZ) pairs and 75 dizygotic (DZ) pairs. The tetrachoric correlations for personal goals related to health and functioning, close relationships, and independent living were higher in MZ than DZ twins, indicating possible genetic influence. The pattern of tetrachoric correlations for personal goals related to cultural activities, care of others, and physical exercise indicated environmental influence. For goals concerning health and functioning, independent living, and close relationships, additive genetic effect accounted for about half of the individual variation. The rest was the result of a unique environmental effect. Goals concerning physical exercise and care of others showed moderate common environmental effect, while the rest of the variance was the result of a unique environmental effect. Personal goals concerning cultural activities showed unique environmental effects only.

To Receive

Financing culture and arts is a difficult task to achieve, especially due to the fact that the revenues ob-tained from such activities may not be enough to cover the costs. This has been claimed to be true for certain cultural activities or events, such as concerts, and is named Baumol’s cost disease. Although other forms of cultural and artistic activity can entirely rely upon the revenues earned, many types of artistic creation depend on public financing or sponsorship. With the advent and democratisation of Internet-based technologies, crowdfunding has become a convenient tool to raise funds in order to fi-nance cultural activities. The aim of this paper is to investigate to what extent cultural and artistic pro-jects are likely to receive financing through crowdfunding. The study is based on the main Romanian crowdfunding platforms and analyses the success rate of crowdfunding projects in culture and arts.
