📢WP: Long-term effects of grade retention
Grade retention gives students an extra year to learn but delays labor market entry.
Surprise: no long-run educational gains in attainment. Still, the delay leads to less experience and earnings loss!

Fascinating!
"[When] vultures disappeared [in India] and were no longer scavenging dead livestock, carrion were more likely to be either dumped in rivers or eaten by other scavengers, such as feral dogs and rats, that are more prone to transmitting diseases to humans."
When vultures in India died out, human mortality increased significantly, say researchers at @HarrisPolicy and @warwickecon. The findings show the importance of so-called keystone species. #Chart aeaweb.org/research/charts/k…

Happy to share that my very first paper has been accepted in Education Economics. I examine the impact of a Danish welfare benefit reduction targeted at refugees in 2015. I find that due to the benefit reduction, school absenteeism increased by 19% among refugee children.

Just received my first fully AI generated paper review (luckily only 1 out of 3 reviews). Whoever submitted it did not even scan it and should be ashamed of themselves for blindly 'suggesting' that my theoretical paper should have a more elaborate section on data collection

Now also in print in @J_HumanResource together with @lenny_ziegler
"Speeddates" but for job seekers? @BasvdKlaauw & @lenny_ziegler tracked workers after a speeddate for temp work and found people worked more days in the next month, but long-run gains didn't materialize.
