What Explains Growing Gender and Racial Education Gaps?
ABSTRACT We study why US college graduation gaps by gender and race widened across cohorts. We develop a dynamic life‐cycle model with endogenous education, labor supply, marriage, fertility, and welfare participation. Preferences are fixed across cohorts and race/ethnic groups; changes arise from family background, labor‐market opportunities, and ...

A Horse Race of Machine‐Learning Methods to Predict Banking Crises
ABSTRACT To examine if one machine‐learning model can consistently elucidate financial vulnerabilities, both over time and across levels of development, this paper applies 13 machine‐learning algorithms to evaluate comparative forecasting performance across several banking crises.

Abstract A new single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panel for genetic stock identification in the Teno river Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., fishery was developed, with a view to improving on an existing microsatellite panel. Twenty‐two genetically differentiated reporting units were proposed based on population genetic analyses of 1212 individuals ...

Formative Measurement Models in Covariance Structure Analysis: Specification and Identification [PDF]
Many researchers seem to be unsure about how to specify formative measurement models in software programs like LISREL or AMOS and to establish identification of the corresponding structural equation model.

Mixing It Up: Inflation at Risk
Abstract Understanding how risk factors shape the economic outlook is essential for guiding policy decisions. This paper develops a flexible framework that decomposes distributional risk forecasts of macro‐economic variables into underlying contributions and supports the construction of interpretable risk measures.

[SHORTENED VERSION] Observations of radio emission from young core-collapse supernovae (CCSNe) allow one to study the history of the pre-supernova stellar wind, trace the density structure of the ejected material, and probe the magnetohydrodynamics that ...

Abstract Brain surgery is a widely practised and effective treatment for brain tumours, but accurately identifying and classifying tumour boundaries is crucial to maximise resection and avoid neurological complications. This precision in classification is essential for guiding surgical decisions and subsequent treatment planning.

Longevity, Health, and Housing Risk Management in Retirement
ABSTRACT Annuities, long‐term care insurance, and reverse mortgages remain puzzlingly unpopular to manage post‐retirement longevity, health, and housing price risks. We use a flexible life‐cycle model structurally estimated with a unique stated‐preference survey experiment of Canadian households to understand why. Key factors include high risk aversion,
