That suggests a predicament for policy makers, he said, because high levels of consumer spending are associated with a relatively low pace of economic growth.
But from the 1930s onwards, the emphasis shifted to unemployment as polticians were determined to avoid a repeat of the Great Depression, not least because high levels of joblessness threatened democracy itself.
Attachment of dissimilar materials is a major challenge because high levels of localized stress may develop at their interfaces.
That's because high levels of carbon dioxide typically render plants less nutritious, which would in turn tend to stifle insect growth.
In addition, patients who had high levels of hs-CRP (≥10 mg/L) were excluded from the study because high levels of hs-CRP (>10 mg/L) may represent nonspecific inflammation and lack positive predictive value [23, 24].
Power distance can be regarded as a relevant factor in companies' intent to adopt sustainability practices, because high levels of power distance may lead to a weaker corporate responsiveness to environmental problems (Katz et al. 2001).
Because high levels of CO2 emission are a global problem, the effectiveness of "CO2-water" curing in closing microcracks of aged cementitious composites specimens through autogenous self-healing can help reduce the increasing pace of CO2 release.
Recent cognitive models propose that intrusive trauma memories arise and persist because high levels of emotional arousal triggered by the trauma disrupt conceptual processing of elements of the event, while enhancing sensory/perceptual processing.
That's because high levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide would have produced acid rain rich in CO2; as the rain hit the mountain, the CO2 would have combined with calcium in the volcanic basalt, forming calcium carbonate--i.e., limestone--runoff.
That's important because high levels of bad cholesterol is one of the biggest indicators of heart disease risk, according to the National Institutes of Health.
What's more, because high levels of incarceration tend to be concentrated in particular areas, entire communities often suffer the economic and social repercussions.
