@Lina_loz studies labor market disparities using lab and online experiments. Lina's JMP shows how gender differences in workers' attribution of credit for their team's success/failure contribute to hiring disparities, particularly when gender is unknown. sites.google.com/view/linamaria…

Pooling information can be difficult, but that doesn’t need to be the case here: I can tell you with certainty that priyoma is an incredible researcher and colleague! If you don’t trust my expertise, see for yourself and check out her JMPs/other work sites.google.com/view/priyomamu…
Priyoma Mustafi@PriyomaM

On the #EconJobMarket ! 🚨 JMP Alert 🚨 Individuals fail to incorporate information held by their spouses. Is it because they are generally reluctant to learn from their spouse? In my #JMP, I show: NO! Because communication is challenging in the absence of expertise. 🧵[/10]

You can catch Daniel next week in DC at #2024APPAM & #SEA2024, where he will present 3 papers: - His JMP - Another solo-authored paper (in progress) on diversity hiring policies - A joint field experiment on strategies to support URM college students #econtwitter @ASHE_ASSA
Danila Serra@danilaserra_eco

🌟#econtwitter🌟 If you are hiring in behavioral/labor/applied/experimental, have a look at my student @DGomezV_Econ! @ASHE_ASSA He employs an online experiment to study white employers' biases against Black & Hispanic workers, i.e., initial priors, belief updating & hiring 🧵

In all of the debates on inflation, I’ve noticed that commentators have overlooked this fantastic 2001 AER paper on preferences over inflation and unemployment. “the well-being cost of a 1-percentage-point increase in the unemployment rate equals the loss brought about by an extra 1.66 percentage points of inflation.” Some student should try to update this analysis and see if this trade-off is currently in the same ballpark. jstor.org/stable/2677914

What about the economy under Trump? I don’t expect great news for workers, and I see big risks from Trump’s overall agenda, both because of his approach to AI and Silicon Valley, and because of his (likely) impact on US institutions.

Job market candidates: a quick thread on how the econ market works, incl. at business schools. 1) It is not unusual to get many 100s of applications. Nobody reads them all first-pass. Most places take a quick glance at letter/cv/intro, and keep the top x%.

Although this strikes me as a somewhat non-ideal day to celebrate, I have a bit of news. 🥂 To many more years.

In the spirit of the olden days of #EconTwitter, I thought I’d write down some notes on finishing up my first year on the tenure track (in a liberal arts setting) in economics. These will be in no particular order and kind of stream of conscious. Let’s have a convo about it! 1/N

@eckelcc It was definitely a good reminder that institutional knowledge needs to be taught instead of taken for granted!

@marissalepper I have a speech on my "job description" I do every course, defining rank, tenure, and our evaluation criteria, emphasizing how tough assistant professors have it and saying students should be nice to them.

I had to clarify to one of my students today that I’m not just their professor’s assistant, despite what my job title may imply. Still don’t know where they thought their “real professor” was all semester.
