It seems that matching on the propensity score, or on covariates, has special status in applied econometrics. I regularly see researchers doing a PS pre-match, and then using the adjusted sample in, say, a diff-in-diffs analysis -- ignoring the matching in inference.

More economists should work on crime.
Jennifer Doleac@jenniferdoleac

Me 15 years ago, as a PhD student: “It seems like all the interesting questions have been answered & there are no useful studies left to do.” Me now, as a funder focused on evidence-based criminal justice policy: “The biggest constraint we face is finding researchers with time to engage in important new projects.” Truly, this is the most pressing problem I have. I need an army of scholars who understand causal methods & who would jump at an opportunity to study a program or policy. Would you like to help? Email me. 🙏

Carapaz not riding is absolutely right. A winner races to win the race. His only chance to win the race is dropping a tired Del Toro on Sestriere. Is up to Del Toro to defend the jersey, not to Carapaz #GirodItalia

First rule of cycling: when the leader is attacked, it’s up to the leader to defend their jersey—not the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, or 5th place riders. #GirodItalia

🚨Job Market Paper Alert🚨 How do localized migrations shocks, such as deportations, impact aggregate productivity over time? I’m on the 2024-2025 #EconJobMarket, and my #EconJMP uncovers some of the unintended, long-lasting consequences of these policies. 🧵

These results suggest that criminal behavior is heavily influenced by environmental factors. Effective policing strategies need to consider these dynamics to better respond to environmental shocks. Comments and feedback are welcome! Full paper here: shorturl.at/YRUMd

🚨New WP: How do criminals react to power outages? With @pdomingr, we dive into this question using high-frequency data on over 370k outages reported by utility companies in Chile. What do we find? No effect on total crime, however, that null masks two opposite reactions🧵👇

For burglaries, the⬆️is concentrated within commercial as oppose to residential locations. For robberies, the⬇️happens in public places. Blackouts may alter the perceived risk of victimization for potential victims who decide to avoid streets/parks in favor of staying at home👇

We exploit the variation in ambient light induced by a nighttime outage (blackout) at the municipality-hour level. Blackouts cause a 5%⬇️in robberies and a 5%⬆️in burglaries. This effect is concentrated within the largest blackouts 👇
