Magnetospheric substorms and solar flares seem to follow a pattern where a sudden transition from a slow passive evolution to a fast active evolution occurs. This concept which has proven useful for constructing a theory of the onset of magnetospheric substorms is tentatively applied to current shee

Abstract
The correlation of past prices and demand is commonly attributed to reference effects. Although reference dependence is robust, support for loss aversion is mixed; some find demand more sensitive to price increases, consistent with loss aversion, others find no difference or greater sensitivity to price decreases. Stockpiling offers an explanation for these mixed findings. Combining theory, analytical models and simulations, stockpiling and reference dependence predict similar effects and the more stockable the product, the greater sensitivity of demand to price decreases, the opposite of loss aversion. We show that a model combining stockpiling and reference effects best aligns with previous findings and under what conditions each effect should dominate. Copyright ยฉ 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
