The EU regulations with respect to money-laundering require each Member State to establish a register of beneficial owners, posing problems over how to determine who should be in charge of it. Nonetheless, this register already exists in Spain and the Spanish Notariate is in charge of it. This register has enabled intensive collaboration with Spanish authorities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article focuses on the measuring instruments used to analyze data pertaining to prison health care in Chile. The definition of quality of health care is addressed, using the U.S. Institute of Medicine (IOM) as an example, including the dimensions of quality scale, risk-benefit commitment and the roles and responsibilities of the receiver of treatment, according to the author. The mathematical model for the measuring instrument is supplied, including formulas, charts and graphs pertaining to its interpretations.

The article presents research on measuring the quality of medical care in corrections facilities in Chile. The author provides a quantitative definition of quality of health care with variables, such as access, equality, and continuity, based on a definition from the Institute of Medicine (IOM) in the U.S. Several multivariable formulas are presented to calculate the quality of treatment, and the use and implications of the formulas are discussed. Although the research and development of the quality measurements are based on health care in correctional facilities, the author states that the measuring tool can be applied to any health care facility in Chile.

The current global recession has cast doubts about the work of macroeconomists, the usefulness of their theories and their capacity to anticipate and deal with crises. This paper discusses that, while incapable of dealing with all the complexities of the real world, models do help to interpret the economic reality and propose economic policy recommendations. It also claims that, although crises are unpredictable, it is necessary to continue searching for early warnings and policies to try to prevent them and mitigate their propagation and amplification. Finally, it emphasizes that, although the initial shock of the current crisis was similar to the one of the Great Depression, its subsequent development has been essentially different, in particular in emerging economies. This proves that the economies are much stranger, and the policies applied have gone in the proper direction, which has benefited from important practical lessons and advances in economic research.

Latin America has been dominated by growth expansions that, more often than not, have ended in crises and protracted periods of stagnation. This has led to poor growth performance during most of the past century. This paper reviews Latin American growth experiences and discusses some particular areas that help to explain why sustainable growth has been so elusive in the region. In particular, it discusses the role of openness and intraregional trade, the role of institutions, macroeconomic stability and inequality, all factors that are central to resume and maintain growth. The paper also discusses more general issues related to growth, such as the importance of protecting property rights and having an adequate structure of rewards to effort, which includes equal opportunities. Finally, a brief overview on current macroeconomic developments is presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study analyzes emotional and behavioral problems in children with siblings who have being diagnosed a mental disease (MD). The sample consisted of 153 children ranging from 4 to 18 years old, 58 of whom had MD siblings and 95 did not —control group. The Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL, Achenbach and Edelbrock, 1983) was used to assess behavioral problems. Although none of the mean scores had clinical relevance, significant differences were found between both groups in all scales except in the attention problems scale. Children with MD siblings had more of behavioral problems than children without MD siblings. Differences remain regardless of the age and gender of subjects. The relevance of results and their implications for family therapy are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

For any given set of experimentally surveyed coordinates, there are some baseline data that are based on those we consider objective if we take care to specify the tolerances of the tools employed. The interpretation of the geometric model requires founded methodological reflections. In the present case study the question might be: what was the configuration of the façade's projecting elements? The mathematical computation supports the hypothesis but it is the instrumental survey that legitimizes the choices in that it measures the gap between the numerical experimental model and the more abstract one of ideas. This information allows to set forth hypotheses concerning the conflicts generated during the execution work in progress. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
