One underappreciated benefit of peer review is that it can give us new ideas. I recently had a paper rejected. Not only were the comments helpful for improving the paper; they also alerted me to some research and concepts that I think will be super helpful elsewhere. Thanks, if you're reading this!

There's a common notion that acculturation harms immigrant health, but acculturation is multidimensional (e.g., linguistic, residential, social). My new work shows it's the *mismatch* between dimensions - not acculturation itself - that explains immigrants' health decline: doi.org/10.1177/0022...

Check out my new article in the Review of Higher Education! Based on the incongruity between which college graduates use skills at work and which have good employment conditions, I advance a framework for the college-to-work transition that considers majors as unique sites of cultural value.

My latest paper out in AJS! I argue that Americans' immigration attitudes are shaped not just by cultural or economic considerations, but by perceptions of political (mis)alignment. That is, there is a logic of conditional inclusiveness that informs immigration attitudes. A thread below 🧵

What are Americans’ perceptions of immigrants’ politics? How do beliefs about whether newcomers are future allies or adversaries shape immigration attitudes? A new #AJS article shows that perceived partisan (mis)alignment powerfully informs US public opinion on immigration.
