My paper on Relative age for grade and adolescent risky health behavior is forthcoming in Journal of Health Economics. I am so happy and proud! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Is there is good paper to read and be inspired by for March 8 - I am looking for a good paper on gender equality?

@ChristaDeneault Wow! :) Congratulations!

Somehow I missed this? Anyway I think it's pretty neat 🤗

@HendrikJurges Yes. My paper should not stand alone on that decision.

@EvaRye I understand why parents may want to postpone school entry because they feel their kid lacks maturity (at age 6). But to suggest they should be allowed to postpone school entry because they want to avoid their kid becoming sexually active too early is a long shot, no?

@HendrikJurges In Denmark, it has become more difficult to postpone the school start in the later years. My results suggest that it should be easier to postpone school start for an individual girl on the margin of being the youngest or oldest.

@EvaRye Sure, kids are warned about all sorts of health risks in school settings. But that's for everyone. If you intend to reduce the effect of relative age, what do you suggest?

@HendrikJurges Relative age leads to earlier sexual debut and earlier romantic relationships - likely due to social norms and expectations related to grade, not biological age. Thus, policies should consider the educ. environment when targeting risky health.

@EvaRye Congratulations! So relative age has real-life effects. What's important though: what are the mechanisms? what are your policy recommendations? Both questions are linked.

@BirtheLarsenCph @MagnusBarsoe @politiken Godt skrevet og rigtig god liste!

Ud af 7 foreslag t økonomiske rådgivere havde @MagnusBarsoe @politiken 1 kvinde! Og det med regeringens fokus på emner som ulighed, som en del kvindelige økonomer beskæftiger sig med. Undskyld til dem, jeg havde have plads til! Jeg er ikke nævnt men har makroøkonomisk ekspertise.

Kim Mannemar Sønderskov fra Institut for Statskundskab og Helena Skyt Nielsen fra Institut for Økonomi har modtaget midler fra Spar Nord Fonden til at ansætte hver deres postdoc på projekter om økonomisk ulighed. bss.au.dk/om-aarhus-bss/… #dkforsk @AarhusUni
