Excited to share that @mtriventi.bsky.social and I have just published a new paper in Higher Education:
Do restricted-access degree programs lead to better academic outcomes?
Short answer: Yes!

-Students in the academic track already showed higher political interest before placement.
-Track placement had no significant causal effect on political interest.
-Upper-secondary tracking seems to maintain rather than create disparities in civic dispositions.
Longitudinal German micro-data (NEPS)
Difference-in-Differences design
Multiple observations before, during, and after track placement
📚 Does educational tracking—academic vs. vocational upper-secondary tracks—shape students’ political interest?
Proud to share the first paper by my PhD student Yuxin Zhang (Univ. of Trento), coauthored with Mario Quaranta and myself, in Social Science Research:
"Is political interest tracked in schools? Evidence from Germany"

In the last few years, we finally got malaria vaccines; we finally got an antiviral that prevents HIV infections with 95-100% efficacy.
But it all means nothing if people don't know it and don't use them.

I LOVE this paper, which talks about reflexivity in quant, not qual, research

If you see a small p-value or a large separation in confidence intervals, you may assume that an effect is reliable. But overly simple reporting may be hiding serious conclusion-altering errors.
Here are some example scenarios:
