The role of universities has recently come into question. In a paper published in Science Advances, we show that the general public expects universities to do more than education and research; with some disagreement on exactly what they should do. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

The role of universities in society
Americans agree universities have a broader role beyond education and research but do not fully agree on what that role is.

Time preferences could play a role in job search: the costs are incurred now, the benefits materialize later. Common measures to elicit preferences are however problematic in this context. We propose an alternative method in our paper, just published in AEJ Micro. www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=...

(February 2025) - We propose a simple method for eliciting individual time preferences without estimating utility functions even in settings where background consumption changes over time. It relies o...

Just confirming: it is not ok (or cool) in our profession to ignore papers that relate clearly to ours, even if they are working papers. There is some weird trend going on lately…

How has the large inflow of less-educated immigrants into the United States affected US natives’ labor market outcomes? Sparber @colgateuniversity.bsky.social and Madeline Zavodny show that the work hazards have fallen for native workers and the impact is larger for women. doi.org/10.1177/0019...

There has been no increase in the economic diversity of elite private and public colleges in the United States over the last century. However, these colleges have become more racially and geographically diverse. www.nber.org/papers/w33164

Happy to be here as well to see more relevant posts posted by academics. BUT academics are well aware of the dangers of echo-chambers, so now more than ever, I hope academics keep posting on X (and perhaps mobilize to like relevant posts). I think it would be bad to disappear in our own bubble!

The graph nicely illustrates what one may regard as a worldwide tacit agreement on climate policy: We continue to increase the consumption of energy, and generate it sustainably. The agreement is only about the general direction - the numbers in the graph need improvement of course.
World Energy Outlook graph on energy generation until 2050, entitled „Solar generation is set to quadruple by 2030, sending coal power tumbling“.
