- In the 1st paper of the thesis, @baardsmed.bsky.social & @robertoiacono.org show that a significant portion of the gap in benefit levels between immigrant groups & natives is due to observable characteristics (42% for immigrants, 69% for descendants). Paper: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
- In the 2nd paper, @baardsmed.bsky.social investigates the association between part-time employment & social assistance, showing that individuals with a low employment percentage have significantly longer SA recipiency compared to those who work full-time. Paper: tidsskrift.dk/njwls/articl...

- Reposted by WelMigFantastic book on program evaluation: regression adjustment, matching, IV, DID, LATE, and regression discontinuity. Cerulli is a superb teacher. I’ve attended a few of his courses, like Machine Learning. If you get the chance, don’t miss his sessions at Timberlake! #DataScience
