New open-access article in @genus.bsky.social in the "Inequality of Uncertainty" issue edited by @comochia.bsky.social & @marcoalbertini.bsky.social.
The findings show that levels of societal pessimism differed only among the women's classes, w/ the highest levels observed in the 'uncertain' group.

Had great fun at @tilburg-university.bsky.social's #NightUniversity. During the talk, I asked the audience what they think the main reason is people expect they won't have #children. The room was majority young #students. This is what they said (& yes, my opening slide might have primed them ;))...

Happy Labour Day to those who get to celebrate.

Today the 🇳🇱 Senate debates a €1 billion+ budget cuts to higher edu & science. Already multiple universities are making devastating choices - including letting staff go & cutting programs - trying to prepare for what's coming.
The shortsightedness of this choice cannot be overestimated. #WOinActie

Day 2 of the great #GIF2025 at @mpidr.bsky.social. Listening to @philipncohen.com pick apart the "depopulation panic" w/ figures like this: if global TFR drops to 1.66, in ~200yrs, the global population will be at the 2000 level.
Of course these panics are not about humanity as a whole, are they?

Gov spending per student is in steep decline (source: #UNL) & they plan further cuts. Dutch R&D spending falls short of the 3%GDP target to compete with 🇺🇸 & 🇨🇳, hasn’t risen in a decade & they plan more cuts.

Rijksbijdrage per student. Het huidige voorstel is om deze investeringen nog verder te verlagen om de afschaffing van andere bezuinigingen op het hoger onderwijs te betalen.
