Can you guess what happens when women are denied a wanted abortion?
...
...
...
In the short run, their risk of death rises as a direct result.
In the long run--a full 15 years later--women denied an abortion experience...
-more health issues,
-lower educational attainment,
-reduced labor-force participation, and
-higher rates of single motherhood,
-higher rates of poverty, and
-greater reliance on government assistance
... as a direct result.
"Existing children, born before their mother sought an abortion, are less likely to attend school and more likely to work."
🥳Exciting news! My first paper is out now in @PNASNews, on work I’ve done at @USC_SLAC_lab
This work was a great collaboration between @YuanChangLeong, @ChelseyPan, & @leorhackel
We examined how the brain learns from experiences of social acceptance and rejection🧵👇
"Non-White scientists endure longer waiting times between the submission and acceptance of their manuscripts, and upon publication, their papers receive fewer citations than would be expected based on textual similarity."
Papers written by non-white economists receive 5.1% to 9.6% fewer citations than those written by white economists.
This disparity is not attributable to differences in research quality, author ability, or visibility.
Rather, this racial gap emerges because scholars tend to cite authors from their racial group.
All of that said, this racial gap in citations has declined by quite a bit in recent years.
Our study on the TikTok algorithm and eating disorders is finally published (big thx 2 @emilya_harris). We scraped the metadata for ~1 million TikTok videos delivered to users w/ eating disorders versus users w/out eating disorders (i.e. healthy controls) https://t.co/T3CJg0buKo
🌻 New paper out in @PNASNews! We employ a reinforcement learning approach to understand how societal stereotypes are internalised as personal prejudice.

@david_m_amodio's excellent explainer 🧵 below:
Abusive bosses don't drive performance. They undermine it.
471 studies, 149k people, 36 countries: in aggressive workplaces, we do poorer work, collaborate less, and shirk more. Incivility breaks confidence and breeds resentment.
The best way to get results is to show respect.
The tightness of social norms is not uniform within a society, argue @weavingmorgan and @michelejgelfand: minorities have tightness imposed on them, and experience greater tightness because of their heightened awareness of social norms: https://t.co/K9taAeMAmi
this is great news!!!! some of my work w @ana_gram_ and co-authors finds evidence of racial bias in the enforcement of many similar rules in NYC. findings are here: https://t.co/qTScEY45BS
i’m often asked how to fix this bias—here's one way: just eliminate the law!
Excited to share this review paper that outlines evidence that minority group members live in ‘tighter’ social worlds. An enormous thank you to @MicheleJGelfand for all the mentorship and guidance on this! Empirical work to follow! https://t.co/UUbymdk75w
Colleagues--our new paper on Minorities living in tighter worlds is out. Loved collaborating with the great @WeavingMorgan on this! Stay tuned for the empirical paper that tests these ideas! cc @_alice_evans https://t.co/WS6tYyPseT
PSA-009 will conduct a multi-country test of gender-fair language intervention for stereotype bias. We expect that the completed project will be published in The Leadership Quarterly, where we have in-principle acceptance.
🚨New article drop in @PNASNexus, exploring the link between economic inequality and moralization – on Twitter (X) and around the globe!
