Big Events theory and measures may help explain emerging long-term effects of current crises.
Samuel R. Friedman,Pedro Mateu-Gelabert,Georgios K. Nikolopoulos,Magdalena Cerdá,Diana Rossi,Ashly E. Jordan,Tarlise Townsend,Maria R. Khan,David C. Perlman +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss and present hypotheses about pathways through which the current Big Events might lead to better or worse short and long term outcomes for various health conditions and diseases; considers how pre-existing societal conditions and changing 'pathway' variables can influence the impact of Big Events; discusses how to measure these pathways; and suggests ways in which research and surveillance might be conducted to improve human capacity to prevent or mitigate the effects of Big events on human health.

The Opioid Epidemic and Homicide in the United States
TL;DR: The results are interpreted as reflecting the violent dynamics of street drug markets, although more research is needed to draw definitive conclusions about the mechanisms linking opioid demand and homicide.

Robert J. Sampson,Brian L. Levy +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors look beyond neighborhoods of residence to consider the everyday mobility of urbanites in their daily rounds, and find that residential segregation by race is not only associated with higher violence but also lower equitability of travel across neighborhoods and a lower concentration of visits to common hubs.

Specification Tests in Econometrics

Instrumental variables and GMM: Estimation and testing
TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss instrumental variables (IV) estimation in the broader con- text of the generalized method of moments (GMM), and describe an extended IV estimation routine that provides GMM estimates as well as additional diagnostic tests.
