Super important findings for everyone running surveys to evaluate knowledge!!
New research alert!
Are smartphones changing knowledge measures on surveys?
tl;dr YES!
This is work with my awesome coauthors Olivia Valdes and Jeremy Burke--probably one of the most fun papers I've been a part of.

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

my great-grandparents arrived in the UK in the 1890s with nothing.
they sold pickles from the front room window, took in laundry, worked as tailors.
their children were nurses, teachers, salesmen.
their grandchildren were professors, designers, opticians, doctors, magistrates, entrepreneurs.

Pourquoi le train est toujours plus cher que l’avion
Si voyager sur rails se révèle être structurellement plus cher que par les airs, c’est notamment parce que l’aérien bénéficie d’un coût artificiellement bas grâce à des exonérations fiscales.
