Allen Goodman's Research
December 2020
This
page provides linkages to my research in health economics and urban economics.
I am
also now working in health economics education and I presented my work at the
July 2014 joint
iHEA/ECHE meetings in Dublin, the July 2015 iHEA meetings in Milano, and
the June 2016 ASHEcon meetings in Philadelphia. We
achieved a very successful a full day session at the July 2017 iHEA meetings in Boston, and the 2018 ASHEcon meetings in Atlanta
in June 2018. We conducted a pre-conference session on active learning methods
at the 2019 iHEA
meetings in Basel, Switzerland.
I was
also invited to join the American Economic Association’s Committee on Economic
Education for a three-year term from January 2019 through December 2021.

Andrew Court Hedonic Price Article
Many
people have sought to locate the original hedonic price article by Andrew Court,
published in 1939. My scanned copy is available as Court_Hedonic.pdf.
It is discussed in detail in a 1998 Journal of Urban Economics article,
available through Science Direct (Elsevier).

- Goodman, Allen C. and Brent C. Smith, Residential Mortgage Default: Theory
Works and So does Policy, Using a national loan
level data set we examine loan default as explained by local demographic
characteristics and state level legislation that regulates foreclosure
procedures and predatory lending, using a hierarchical linear model.
When controlling for loan and local conditions, we observe significant
variation in the default rate across states, with lower default levels
in states with higher temporal and financial costs to lenders. State
level legislative influences provide a foundation for discussion of
national level policy that further regulates predatory lending and
financial institution foreclosure activities. Hierarchical Modeling of

Interesting Sites
Health Economics sites. The governmental agencies have excellent
sites, often providing up-to-date information long before it is available in
print.
For
example, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services data site is http://www.cms.gov,
the NIDA site is http://www.nida.nih.gov/, and so on.
Another
excellent site is the Kaiser Family Foundation, at http://www.kff.org.
Housing
