摘要在美国,预防青少年性交易已经成为公共政策话语中的一个突出问题。我们开发了一个广义的效益-成本模型来阐明这一政策问题,并以明尼苏达州的一个案例研究来说明该框架。该模型将政府资助的干预视为投资项目,并计算其净现值。通过减少性交易的程度,可以避免伤害,从而获得好处。青年参与性服务市场的影响非常复杂,而且缺乏关于这些影响的明确数据。为了解释经验上的模糊性,我们围绕一个有代表性的个体建立了模型,近似了干预对性市场的影响,并对关键模型参数进行了敏感性分析。该案例研究根据学术文献中保守的最佳估计评估了性交易造成的17种不同危害。我们发现一个大的积极的净现值,这表明它是在明尼苏达州纳税人的最佳利益,以支持干预。
Abstract Prevention of juvenile sex trading in the US has risen to prominence in public policy discourse. We develop a generalized benefit-cost model to shed light on this policy issue and illustrate the framework with a case study from Minnesota. The model treats government-funded intervention as an investment project and calculates its net present value. Benefits are derived from harms avoided by reducing the extent of sex trading. The impacts of youth involvement in the market for sexual services are highly complex, and clear data on them are lacking. To account for empirical ambiguity we develop the model around a representative individual, approximate the effect of intervention on the sex market, and conduct sensitivity analysis with key model parameters. The case study evaluates seventeen distinct harms caused by sex trading based on conservative best estimates from scholarly literature. We find a large positive Net Present Value, suggesting it is in the best interest of Minnesota taxpayers to support intervention.
