This upstate New York town is a showstopper for scenery | CNN Jam-packed with waterfalls tumbling through dramatic gorges, the vibrant college town of Ithaca in New York’s Finger Lakes region also has the cultural landscape of a much larger destination.

Is there a growing gender divide among young adults in regard to ideological left–right self-placement? Evidence from 32 European countries Abstract. Growing gender differences in political ideology among young people are a major concern because of their potential long-term societal implication

Paper on the ideology gender gap with Eurobarometer data from @gesis.org by @nennstielr.bsky.social and
@hudde.bsky.social . Most interesting finding: while young women are becoming more left-wing in 11 countries, in 5 of them young men are also becoming more right-wing (DK, FI, SE, FR and LT)

This is the best ad

a big part of this is that if they have a choice between having an integrated service that's inclusive or a divided service that's not, they'll opt for the latter because they believe that integration destroys institutions

To trust the polling, the trends are perhaps more distressing among those still too young to have even dipped their toes into the work force. According to the data analyst David Waldron’s assessment of the world-class Monitoring the Future Survey, run by the University of Michigan, in 2018, 84 percent of eighth- and 10th-grade boys said they agreed either “completely” or “mostly” that women should have the same job opportunities as men. Five years later, the number had fallen to 72 percent. The share who agreed “at all” that men and women should be paid the same money for the same work had fallen from 87 percent to 79 percent. The share who said they agreed “completely” with equal pay for equal work had fallen from 72 percent to 57 percent — just over half.

This isn't a stalled gender revolution. It's a gender counter-revolution. And the most troubling part is that it's younger men and boys the leading charge.

I’ll be working on salvaging as much as I can from my defunded NSF CAREER grant

This graph represents tens of thousands of active NSF grants. About 14% of them were awarded in 2020 or earlier, yet none were terminated. All 1044 cancellations occurred since 2021.

The odds against such an occurrence arising by chance is p<0.0001, less than 1 in 10,000.

So sorry Jeff

I am so sorry to hear about the Journeys grant. It is such an amazing program and I learned so much from it.

Without this grant, we will lack crucial knowledge about the extent of police violence globally, about how to prevent it, and about how to transform police forces into agencies that protect civilians rather than perpetrate violence against them.

Finally, it included an educational component to train police officers from around the world on how they can work to mitigate police violence within their own agencies.

It also involved conducting the largest quantitative survey of police officers worldwide—including participants from Uruguay, Senegal, Zambia, Jordan, and many other countries—to understand how officers' experiences shape their decisions about using force.

Using these data, the project sought to identify the political causes of police violence and ways to mitigate it.

This project used large language models and machine learning to aggregate data on global police violence, uncovering the extent of the problem, geographic variation, and differences in types of violence.

All around the world, police forces commit violence against civilians on a daily basis—whether during protests, through extrajudicial killings, or in routine abuses during traffic stops.

What was my research about?

After winning it, my plan was to dedicate the resulting book to him. Now, I am not sure that I will be able to finish the book. Aside from this loss, and the obvious job loss for my students and post-doc, each termination comes with a cost to losing knowledge.

This is the most prestigious award that the NSF gave out to junior scholars and something that my dad had always pushed me to apply for and hoped I would win.

Today, I received a termination for my National Science Foundation CAREER Grant, which employed a post-doc and many undergraduate research assistants.

🚨 New #Publication: We tracked how policy and parenthood reshaped gender inequality in Germany from the 1960s to today. In early decades, only 14% of the gender gap was due to kids—now it's 64%.

How did children become the biggest factor? Thread🧵

Mariel Barnes and I have a new paper: The Manosphere and Politics, which argues that the manophere is a political space and theorizes about which parts are more prone to different forms of violence.
