Teacher bias or unobserved ability? @ssreditorial.bsky.social paper w/ @marespadafor.bsky.social Test score error & omitted behavior = 🐘 in the (class)room to identify SES discrimination. Still, beyond "true ability", well-off (low-performing) kids get higher teacher ratings: doi.org/10.1016/j.ss...

29.09.2025 10:02 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0📚 We study whether this gap results from actual unfair treatment or from attributional factors, such as information deficits, enrolment in a stigmatized track, high parental aspiration, and pronounced “aspiration squeeze”.

💡 Based on our recently collected & novel #PerFair data on inequality perceptions among 7th-graders,
@cdiehl.bsky.social, Thomas Hinz & myself study why minority vs majority students more often perceive to belong to a higher educational track than they currently attend.
✨ For those who missed it: Our Article on Perceived Track Mismatch among Minority and Majority Students in the German Education System is published in RSSM ❗️🥳❗️

New papers out on perceived unfairness! A 🧵:
