Teacher Bias and Evaluation Differences in Test Scores: Different Methods for Different Questions

open access: yesOxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study differences in teacher evaluations of student performance relative to those measured by test scores. While much literature is concerned with estimating various types of teacher biases, we show conceptually that there is no single ‘teacher bias’ effect.

Does Less Education Harm Health? Evidence From a Natural Experiment in a Developing Country

open access: yesOxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We investigate the health outcome effects of a reduction in years of schooling in Egypt in 1988, a policy change that moves in the opposite direction in relation to the extant literature. We exploit this policy change as a natural experiment and employ a fuzzy regression discontinuity design to investigate a range of objectively measured ...

Validating DSGE Models Through SVARs Under Imperfect Information

open access: yesOxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We study the ability of SVARs to match impulse responses of a well‐established DSGE model where the information of agents can be imperfect. We derive conditions for the solution of a linearized NK‐DSGE model to be invertible given this information set. In the absence of invertibility, an approximate measure is constructed. An SVAR is estimated

Deciphering the performance of different surface models for corneal topography

open access: yesOphthalmic and Physiological Optics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To study the performance of different corneal surface models to be used for ray tracing. Models based on geometric surfaces and polynomial fits were compared and the differences discussed. Methods For this simulation study, five characteristic generic surface configurations were generated: (A) perfect biconic, (B) decentred biconic ...

A Tale of Networks and Networking: Integrating Structural and Behavioral Perspectives on Social Action

open access: yesPersonnel Psychology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Research on social networks and networking has generated critical insights for theories and practices about social action in the work context. These insights mostly derive from two theoretical perspectives: one focuses on the network structures that influence individual actions and outcomes, and the other examines the behaviors that people ...
