Abstract

André F. Nebe uses his humour structure analysis to make viewers' preferences and corresponding audiovisual offerings in films visible. Complex and multi-layered audiovisual (hypotactic) humour is used in the more successful films, while less successful films make simple (paratactic) humour offerings. Humour structure analysis offers insights into promising humour offerings and can also be used in the story development phase for writers, directors, producers and dramaturges. The content Humour in science and practice Questioning children about humour Components of humour-categorised film analysis Correlations between children's humour preferences and humour offerings in the analysed films Correlations to budget, shooting days and number of visitors The target groups Lecturers and students of media studies and film schools Film producers and directors, scriptwriters, TV editors, licence buyers for film/TV, film funding institutions The author André F. Nebe studied law at the Humboldt University in Berlin, film directing at the University of Hamburg and earned his doctorate at the Babelsberg Film University. Among other things, he is the director of the feature film "Das grosse Rennen", author of various episodes of the ZDF series "Löwenzahn", was an editor for the SWR children's series "Motzgurke" and is the author of children's books in the series "Die Geisterreiter" and "Die Küstenwölfe".

Abstract

Why do low income patients tend to go to lower quality health care providers, even when they are free? We show that differential information about provider quality is an important determinant of this disparity. Our empirical strategy exploits the temporary presence of a website that publicly displayed summary star ratings of general practitioner (GP) offices in England. Regression discontinuity estimates show that patient demand responds sharply to the information on the website, and that this response is almost entirely driven by residents of low income neighborhoods. The results are consistent with high income patients having better private information about quality. We incorporate our estimates into a structural model of demand that allows for heterogeneity in information, preferences, and consumer inertia. We find that information differences explain 24 percent of the relationship between income and GP quality and reinforce disparities in access to care.
