While some governments resist implementing gender quota laws, competition can still nudge parties. In a new policy brief, Pamela Campa (SITE) and I analyze data from Turkey, showing how the Kurdish party’s commitment to gender equality pushed Erdoğan’s AKP to field more female candidates.👇

Do students respond differently to feedback depending on the evaluator’s perceived gender? We find that they push back more when the randomly assigned name of the evaluator is female-sounding --implications for women’s authority and credibility in educational and professional contexts!
