Restructuring Process

Haryana power sector reforms were initiated as a part of the overall power sector reform process initiated in the country under the supervision of the World Bank. Haryana became the second state in the country that implemented the restructuring process at the state level after Orissa. Enhancing efficiency, productivity and quality are the goals behind these reforms. This article attempts to measure the economic efficiency of the power sector reforms in Haryana. A non-parametric technique—data envelopment analysis (DEA)—is used to measure the economic efficiency in the pre- and post-reform period of power sector reforms. Also, the specification of input and output has been carried out and an input-oriented approach has been selected. the result reveals that the power sector reforms have significantly improved efficiency in input utilisation, but as far as scale efficiency is concerned, the power sector has measurable failures on this front. The power sector in Haryana still operates with inappropriate size of scale. Therefore, a well-calibrated and robust permanent policy needs to be formulated to achieve the objectives of the power sector reforms.

Risky Business

Building on sociological research on institutions and organizations and psychological research on risk and decision making, we propose that the development of institutions that reduce the risks of entering new sectors has a stronger effect on the founding rates of firms using novel technologies than on firms using established technologies. In an analysis of the independent-power sector of the electricity industry from 1980 to 1992, we found that the development of regulative and cognitive institutions legitimated the entire sector and provided incentives for all sector entrants; thus, foundings of all kinds of firms multiplied rapidly but had a stronger impact on those using risky novel technologies. In contrast, the central normative institutions that developed in this sector, state-level trade associations, provided greater support for particular forms (those using established technologies) and thus increased foundings of those favored forms more than foundings of less favored forms (those using novel technologies). Our study demonstrates how institutional forces can alter the mix of organizations entering a new industry and thus contribute to diversity, as well as similarity, among organizations.

Renewable Power

Indian power generation sector has increased by 40% from 199 GW in FY12 to over 327 GW in FY17 to become the fifth largest power generation sector globally. India‘s power transmission network has also grown in sync with the generation sector to enable the evacuation of additional power produced. Renewable power has played a pivoted role in this expansion with its increased contribution in the overall generation mix from 24.5 GW in FY12 to over 57.3 GW in FY17. This paper discusses several drivers such as government’s renewable power targets, Central and state-level incentives, declining technology costs and facilitating sale of renewable power along with others that continue to outpace the barriers prevalent around poor financial condition of State Electricity Boards, challenges in renewable integration, concerns regarding sustainability of low renewable power tariffs and non-enforcement of renewable purchase obligations. The paper also an outlook of the overall renewable as well as solar and wind technology space.

This paper will provide the school-based speech-language pathologist (SLP) with an overview of the federal requirements for Medicaid, including provider qualifications, “under the direction of” rule, medical necessity, and covered services. Billing, documentation, and reimbursement issues at the state level will be examined. A summary of the findings of the Office of Inspector General audits of state Medicaid plans is included as well as what SLPs need to do in order to ensure that services are delivered appropriately. Emerging trends and advocacy tools will complete the primer on Medicaid services in school settings.

Facial Expressions Of Emotion

Abstract. Past research suggests that transient mood influences the perception of facial expressions of emotion, but relatively little is known about how trait-level emotionality (i.e., temperament) may influence emotion perception or interact with mood in this process. Consequently, we extended earlier work by examining how temperamental dimensions of negative emotionality and extraversion were associated with the perception accuracy and perceived intensity of three basic emotions and how the trait-level temperamental effect interacted with state-level self-reported mood in a sample of 88 adults (27 men, 18–51 years of age). The results indicated that higher levels of negative mood were associated with higher perception accuracy of angry and sad facial expressions, and higher levels of perceived intensity of anger. For perceived intensity of sadness, negative mood was associated with lower levels of perceived intensity, whereas negative emotionality was associated with higher levels of perceived intensity of sadness. Overall, our findings added to the limited literature on adult temperament and emotion perception.
