New Paper Alert! Really proud to announce my paper with Sam Shuoyu Chen and @ivycollins.bsky.social, Discrimination and subjective player ratings: Evidence from China, has been published in The Quarterly Review of Economics and Finance. A thread.
The SEA conference is my favorite on the calendar and these great NAASE sessions play a big role in that.
Many thanks to the presenters and attendees in NAASE's sessions at the recent Southern Econ. Assoc. conference in Tampa for interesting papers and insightful comments. We hope to see the attendees again soon and hope others will join us at upcoming conferences.
