🚨 New working paper! How well do people predict the results of studies? @sdellavi.bsky.social and I leverage data from the first 100 studies to have been posted on the SSPP, containing 1,482 key questions, on which over 50,000 forecasts were placed. Some surprising results below.... 🧵👇

Very interesting work by @evavivalt.bsky.social and @sdellavi.bsky.social. Particularly intriguing is the finding that a surprising negative relationship between confidence and accuracy is accounted for by a subset of persistently overconfident forecasters.

Dunning-Kruger effect in practice: In 53k forecasts across 100 projects, people who are more confident are actually much less accurate. New 📄 by @evavivalt.bsky.social & @sdellavi.bsky.social

Not quite sure how to put it all in words, but I just spent an extraordinary day celebrating my dissertation adviser, Larry Katz. Feeling grateful, proud, and (re-) inspired. Larry has raised so many extraordinary economists that being in the same room as them was overwhelming.

I was the AEA's President Elect as the first Trump term began. We worried about government statistics then, and appointed a committee that included members (such as Google's Chief Economist) who might be in a position to help make reliable statistics available if the government went dark. #econsky

I have both *thoughts* and *feelings* about Trump attacking Harvard. And I want to share them with you.
