Want to measure beliefs but don’t want to ask directly about probabilities? Check out our new paper for an intuitive choice-based approach! We use it to quantify beliefs about marriage market returns to girls schooling in rural Rajasthan

Optimistically feeling like winter is over in Chicago! So many people outside during lunch breaks!

I put together an overview of recent developments in the literature on gender-based violence for @AEAjournals There's enough material for 2x 1.5hr lectures. I've covered the material in labor & gender economics classes I hope they can be helpful! www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ea7v9...

I was incredibly honored to be awarded the CSWEP Carolyn Shaw Bell Award. When I accepted the award, I talked about the importance of mentoring. The lessons I pass on are kind of obvious. But they are important, so I am going to share them yet again. (A🧵)

There’s a new format to AEAs cont-ed program: “Recent Development” sessions in different areas of Economics. I’m talking on the economics of gender-based violence & harassment on Sunday. I hope it inspires new work & makes it easier to incorporate into teaching! See you there! #EconSky

I can’t believe women still have to deal with this sh*t. Major professional retaliation for asking for protection against sexual harassment, on a movie project about domestic violence. Are you kidding?? 😭 www.nytimes.com/2024/12/21/b...
