It’s bonus story day!
6 weeks into OneExtraYear’s maternity leave (which is all you get at many places; see our data website), we hear some postpartum musings by our very own @Ale_M_Peter.
While we will move our focus to solutions when we return, we’ll still publish personal stories to keep @OneExtraYear's special touch. So, send us a story if you’d like to share yours!

Wow, what a win for Canada! @RFisman's work has always fascinated me, if you haven't already read it, you should.
Also one of the best discussants I've ever had, made our workplace relationships paper significantly better through some very constructive criticism.
We’re delighted to welcome economist professor @RFisman, a leading researcher in politics and finance, as the new Eddie Goldenberg Research Chair of Canada in Finance and Political Economy at the Rotman School of Management.

🚨 The due date is almost here! 🚨
The One Extra Year database, built with support from @AEACSWEP, launches this coming Monday, 10am ET! 🎉
Watch for the link to the brand-new website and get ready to explore and compare parental leave, tenure-clock extensions, teaching relief & more across econ departments around the globe. 📊
🚨We’re thrilled to share that One Extra Year has received a generous grant from @AEACSWEP! 🚨
Alongside the personal stories at the heart of the project, we’ll use this support to collect data on policies on parental leave, tenure-clock extensions, and teaching relief across econ departments in the U.S. and Europe. 📈📊📉
We’ll soon publish the resulting data in an accessible & visually engaging format to help
- departments compare their policies with peer institutions
- researchers understand the broader landscape
- the profession identify where change is most needed
We’re deeply grateful to @AEACSWEP for supporting this next phase of One Extra Year. Stay tuned!

Many of us know people who have dated their bosses. What we didn’t know—until now—is how much subordinates gain from the relationship, and how much they lose if they break up. on.wsj.com/4beYTXX
Every month there is a new headline about someone dating a manager and the messiness for the firm. This month's AI version: wsj.com/tech/ai/the-messy-hu…
We estimate the impacts of these relationships in our working paper. A paper that seems to be continuously relevant!

Studying whether guaranteed basic income reduces crime finds that a two-year nationwide randomized controlled trial in Finland shows no effect on crime perpetration or victimization despite high baseline rates of both, from Mikko Aaltonen, Martti Kaila, and @emilynix100 nber.org/papers/w34547
Lots of engagement on this one and thanks @JohnHolbein1 for tweeting about it! We do a lot in the paper and I think it sheds some rigorous new light on a controversial debate.
Thanks so much for the great feedback! We are quite excited about the cautiously hopeful message from the study. Find more here: nber.org/papers/w34345
Wonderful visiting @UofEBusiness @UniofExeter & giving a seminar @ Econ Dept yesterday! I talked abt gender-based violence & judge responses w/ Xiqian Cai, Zhengquan Cheng & @EmilyNix100.
Huge thanks to Dario, Cecilia & @boonhankoh for arrangement! Amazing campus & researchers!
Great coverage of my paper with @MontonenJerry and Dave Macdonald on the Economist!
Note, @MontonenJerry is on the market this year and would be a fantastic hire for any department/position!
Are you looking yearningly across the office at your boss? New research suggests you may want to think twice economist.com/business/2025/…
Also, forgot to mention, @MontonenJerry is on the market this year! I'll do a fuller post soon, but he is an amazingly talented economist and any department would be lucky to have him.

Very excited to have officially put out this paper the other week! Check out this great interview by my co-author Dave Macdonald: cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-1…
