Conclusions; ReferencesThis paper uses vector autoregressions and impulse-response functions to construct a U.S. financial conditions index (FCI). Credit availability—proxied by survey results on lending standards—is an important driver of the business cycle, accounting for over 20 percent of the typical contribution of financial factors to growth. A net tightening in lending standards of 20 percentage points reduces economic activity by ¾ percent after one year and 1¼ percent after two years. Much of the impact of monetary policy on the economy also works through its effects on credit supply, which is evidence supporting the existence of a credit channel of monetary policy. Shocks to corporate bond yields, equity prices, and real exchange rates also contribute to fluctuations in the FCI. This FCI is an accurate predictor of real GDP growth, anticipating turning points in activity with a lead time of six to nine months. 15B.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2008/161LoansUnited StatesEconometric modelsCreditUnited StatesEconometric modelsBanks and BankingimfEconometricsimfInvestments: StocksimfMoney and Monetary PolicyimfMonetary Policy, Central Banking, and the Supply of Money and Credit: GeneralimfTime-Series ModelsimfDynamic Quantile RegressionsimfDynamic Treatment Effect ModelsimfDiffusion ProcessesimfInterest Rates: Determination, Term Structure, and EffectsimfPension FundsimfNon-bank Financial InstitutionsimfFinancial InstrumentsimfInstitutional InvestorsimfMonetary economicsimfEconometrics & economic statisticsimfFinanceimfInvestment & securitiesimfCreditimfVector autoregressionimfBank creditimfShort term interest ratesimfStocksimfInterest ratesimfUnited StatesEconomic conditionsEconometric modelsUnited StatesimfLoansEconometric models.CreditEconometric models.Banks and BankingEconometricsInvestments: StocksMoney and Monetary PolicyMonetary Policy, Central Banking, and the Supply of Money and Credit: GeneralTime-Series ModelsDynamic Quantile RegressionsDynamic Treatment Effect ModelsDiffusion ProcessesInterest Rates: Determination, Term Structure, and EffectsPension FundsNon-bank Financial InstitutionsFinancial InstrumentsInstitutional InvestorsMonetary economicsEconometrics & economic statisticsFinanceInvestment & securitiesCreditVector autoregressionBank creditShort term interest ratesStocksInterest rates354.2799273Swiston Andrew1462133DcWaIMFBOOK9910788234803321A U.S. Financial Conditions Index3704177UNINA04618oam 2200733I 450 991079001090332120230814232005.00-429-91459-80-429-90036-80-429-47559-41-280-12571-397866135295721-84940-965-X10.4324/9780429475597 (CKB)2670000000156009(EBL)869993(OCoLC)779829042(SSID)ssj0000662743(PQKBManifestationID)12329571(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000662743(PQKBWorkID)10722019(PQKB)10785470(MiAaPQ)EBC869993(Au-PeEL)EBL869993(CaPaEBR)ebr10546131(CaONFJC)MIL352957(OCoLC)1029239458(OCoLC)768166256(FINmELB)ELB144212(EXLCZ)99267000000015600920180706d2018 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrHow couple relationships shape our world clinical practice, research, and policy perspectives /edited by Andrew Balfour, Mary Morgan, and Christopher VincentLondon :Routledge,2018.1 online resource (353 p.)Library of couple and family psychoanalysisDescription based upon print version of record.0-367-10697-3 1-85575-837-7 Includes bibliographical references and index.COVER; CONTENTS; ABOUT THE EDITORS AND CONTRIBUTORS; FOREWORD by Brett Kahr; FOREWORD by Samantha Callan; INTRODUCTION How couple relationships shape our world: clinical practice, research,and policy perspectives; CHAPTER ONE Prevention: intervening with couples at challenging family transition points; COMMENTARY ON CHAPTER ONE; CHAPTER TWO Parents as partners: how the parental relationship affects children's psychological development; COMMENTARY ON CHAPTER TWO; CHAPTER THREE How couple therapists work with parenting issues; COMMENTARY ON CHAPTER THREECHAPTER FOUR The role of the family court system of England and Wales in child-related parental disputes: towards a new concept of the family justice process COMMENTARY ON CHAPTER FOUR; CHAPTER FIVE Working therapeutically with high conflict divorce; COMMENTARY ON CHAPTER FIVE; CHAPTER SIX Depression, couple therapy, research, and government policy; COMMENTARY ON CHAPTER SIX; CHAPTER SEVEN Approaches to researching the evidence:an exploration of TCCR's research into couple relationships and couple therapy, past and present; COMMENTARY ON CHAPTER SEVENCHAPTER EIGHT Couple therapy-social engineering or psychological treatment?

It draws on clinical researches into the inner lived world of adult couples, empirical developmental research into children and parenting, as well as the legal setting when relationships break down. It aims to bridge the inner and outer worlds, showing how our most intimate relationships have vital importance at all levels, from the individual and the family, to the social setting - and explores the implications for practice and policy. Above all, it is a book about applications of clinical thinking linked with research knowledge, as tools for front line workers and policy makers alike. It draws on the tradition of applied clinical thinking and research of the Tavistock Centre for Couple Relationships, linking current thinking with the history of ideas in each area it covers, as well as considering implications for the future."--Provided by publisher.Library of couple and family psychoanalysis.Couples therapyCouplesLaw and legislationCouples therapy.CouplesLaw and legislation.155.645617.75Balfour AndrewMorgan MaryVincent ChristopherFlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910790010903321How couple relationships shape our world3839147UNINA
