As someone who often uses self-reports and has found that they work pretty well for what we want, this is a refreshing perspective pointing out that they work and they work better than the oft-cited alternatives.

New paper on "the practices of wage theft that often surround academic promotions, and specifically, the common requirement that someone must already be working at the level for which they are hoping to be promoted" BSky author @troyheff.bsky.social doi.org/10.1080/0729... #AcademicSky #HigherEd

Higher education has a strong relationship with wage theft, which has been examined throughout years of research, reports, and government enquiries. This paper examines the practices of wage theft that often surround academic promotions, and specifically, the common requirement that someone must already be working at the level for which they are hoping to be promoted. The work uses Australia’s higher education sector as an example, as Australia’s employment and promotion conditions are similar in many aspects to other higher education sectors. The paper provides an analysis of the promotion expectations to which academics are subjected to understand what tasks academics are expected to complete, and for how long, without being paid, before they can apply for promotion. The paper demonstrates to academics, policymakers, and unions, yet another exploitative practice that must be monitored and removed from the modern university as the sector looks to engage more equitable practices.

Remote work can't solve the childcare crisis. Treating it as the solution risks forcing parents (especially moms) to be full-time caregivers while also working for pay full-time. And it risks gaslighting parents (especially moms) if they can't manage that impossible task.

The average Nobel laureate grew up in an 87–90th percentile household. Access to opportunity doubled from 1901–2023, but remains highly unequal. Barriers are higher for women, but lower for Americans. cepr.org/publications...

I agree. It selects for the most common approach to asking questions in social psych and assumes the most commonly assumed problems, goals, constraints and affordances. What’s fascinating is that a field questioning its rigor managed to redefine rigor as science that resembles the same field.

I also have a tutorial for Lollipop plots that plot differences between group means across a number of variables. If you ask me, whoever chose to not name this graph *Lolliplots* missed big time. 🙄 Anyway, here is the code: sites.google.com/view/egarcia...

Last semester, I taught myself how to plot maps using R. Because I suffered a bit too much through this process, I figured I would make an easy tutorial for choropleth maps like the one below. I put this tutorial up on my website: sites.google.com/view/egarcia... I hope this helps someone!
