I don't post here anymore, but I own this to my younger self:

Today is my first day as a (tenured) professor! 🥳🥳🥳

It's also my son's first day at pre-school (école maternelle) which feels somehow more exciting (and scary).

Exposure to worrisome topics can increase cognitive performance when incentivized by a performance goal, by @danielahsaenz, @evaraiber, and @DemontTimothee https://t.co/3GkgK98t5W

[Eva Raiber @evaraiber]

Yet, digging deeper (with Athey's causal forest), we find that the result is driven by financially well-off students. Students with financial struggles are less likely to benefit from the treatment.

This points to an inequality‑widening mechanism.

New publication, based on our online experiment with @danielahsaenz and @DemontTimothee :

But, we find a positive effect of the labor market topic under the threshold payment.
This could be indicative of a 'tunneling effect (from scarcity theory) or a positive stress effect.

Very grateful to JDE for the surprisingly fast turnaround!

[Eva Raiber @evaraiber]

Excited to share our new discussion paper @cepr_org:

In an online experiment, we test the effectiveness of scam education on a novel measure of scam identification ability.

#easp2023krk is over and I'm seeing so many tweets about how great it was. No denying the truth to that, but there's also the not so great truth about how #visa issues were handled.
