Very excited to share a new working paper with @yveszenou.bsky.social, @silviagriselda.bsky.social, & Sofoklis Goulas. We ask the following question: How do disruptive peers shape academic & career outcomes? We examine the effects of peer disruptiveness on academic performance & long-term outcomes.

How does classroom disruptive affect your performance and educational choice?

Together with @rmegal.bsky.social Yves Zenou and Sofojlis Goulas we combine admin data and reduce form estimates, with lab in the field and theory model to answer this question. Working paper coming soon...

#econsky, I need your help!

Do you know of websites run by authorities in your country (bonus if in Europe) that show info on the earnings of past graduates from different higher education programs?

Like, for example, mifuturo.cl in Chile, collegescorecard.ed.gov in the US, eduscopio.it in Italy.

Germany entirely lacks the data infrastructure to produce such numbers based on official data. Do you know this paper by my colleague Jason Sockin forthcoming in JPE based on Glassdoor data?
