| Inhalt |
The complexity and chronicity of mental health conditions, particularly serious mental illness pose significant policy challenges. In this course we will examine economic factors in the provision, organization and use of services for mental disorders in several countries. We further discuss empirical strategies, data and causal identification. The course consists of five lectures, an econometric homework assignment, two referee reports, a research proposal, and class participation.
