Hi #EconTwitter ! I am super excited to share my #jobmarketpaper “Female Genital Cutting and Bride Price” 200 million women alive today have undergone female genital cutting (@WHO). Why? I show that the practice generates marriage market returns. 🧵#EconJobMarket
We are paying $3400 for infant daycare at Harvard. In 2017 as a first year postdoc, this is higher than my post tax salary. It does not make sense financially to work as a postdoc and to raise a kid. You wonder why some women quit science at this point??

Economics is in something of a #metoo moment, with a number of women coming forward (and naming names) with some very disturbing revelations of sexual harassment and sexual misconduct by senior male economists. See @jenniferdoleac's timeline for a blow-by-blow of each revelation.
Fellowship call to increase diversity in development economics🚨 Stay tuned for the launch of the second round of the Kabir Banerjee Predoctoral Fellowship. Applications will be open from October 10th through December 12th. More info here: bfi.uchicago.edu/weiss-fund-pre…
Great paper by @hanna_schwank at #EALE2022 : using unexpected worker deaths, they found that men replacing deceased women earn slightly higher wages than their predecessors BUT women replacing deceased men face a wage decrease of 31 log points!
In Uganda, dads spend less on girls' than boys' human capital, but moms don't. Our analysis has the statistical power to show this Father*Girl effect because of a new method. We also test for the reason: Seems to be dads' lower altruism toward girls. New paper w/ @RDizonRoss.
New working paper (with @glaub_rick and Miriam Wetter): The Gender Lifetime Earnings Gap - The Role of Parenthood Women earn on average 51.5% less than men over their entire work life. The gap increases with number of children. 1/5 #GenderPayGap diw.de/de/diw_01.c.83…
**How socioeconomically diverse is the economics profession?** New @PIIE working paper by @SchultzzyRun & myself, building on some stats I showed in an (unexpectedly viral!) Twitter thread in November. 10 Key Facts - and some discussion - below: piie.com/publications/w…
Keeping the 2021 expanded Child Tax Credit would cost $97B a year. But (!) it would generate social benefits with net present value of $982 billion per year. That's a 10x return. Seems worthwhile. nber.org/papers/w29854
Using willingness-to-pay (WTP) as an outcome variable in your study? Try also eliciting WTP for a "benchmark good" -- one unrelated to your outcome or independent variables of interest. Include it as a control in your regressions. Can improve power a lot! among other benefits.
The breadbasket of the world is at war. What are the aftershocks for Africa? A 🧵
Ah to only pay 14K for childcare, we pay 25K per year and our daycare is one of the more affordable options. Also, it boggles my mind that we pay this amount and somehow the teachers at the daycare aren't paid way more!?

Thrilled that our paper on gender attitudes in India is now out in the AER. (Ungated copy: bit.ly/2QGHIGu) Adding class discussions about gender equality to the high school curriculum increased students' support for gender equality, with persistent effects.
Happy to share that "Environmental Effects of Development Programs: Experimental Evidence from West African Dryland Forests", joint with @simonhhess and M. Schündeln, has been accepted for publication at the Journal of Development Economics! researchgate.net/publication/35…
My attempt at this joke. Econ papers
The NGO effect! Next time you hear about a hyper-effective RCT you may ask "But who implemented the intervention & how much does this drive the results?" followed by a reference to this amazing paper by @FarazUsmani @subhrendukp & #marcjeuland #econtwitter bit.ly/3fOaXmW
We found that first-time enrollments are down by 16% this fall - and that’s just a very first glimpse into the pandemic’s consequences on the higher education world! More to come from the @NSClearinghouse Research Center in our monthly updates. nytimes.com/live/2020/10/1…
