Aggregation and the Structure of Value
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Roughly, the view I call “Additivism” sums up value across time and people. Given some standard assumptions, I show that Additivism follows from two principles. The first says that how lives align in time cannot, in itself, matter. The second says, roughly, that a world cannot be better unless it is better within some period or another.

Is A Little Learning Dangerous?
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT I argue that a little learning is often dangerous even for ideal reasoners who are operating in extremely simple scenarios and know all the relevant facts about how the evidence is generated. More precisely, I show that, on many plausible ways of assigning value to a credence in a hypothesis H, ideal Bayesians should sometimes expect other ...

Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In VECMs (or CVARs), the weak exogeneity of some of the variables (for the long‐run parameters) is related to the equilibrium adjustment dynamics. This has sometimes led to the statistical concept of weak exogeneity being given a causal interpretation.

Thus, thermodynamical laws connect the match's being struck and its lightning, so that the former causes the latter; and laws about set formation connect Socrates' existence with {Socrates}'s ...

Policy Studies Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The examination of policy evolution has important practical implications, but current literature often only evaluates changing policy goals and instruments at the macro‐level, overlooking changes that occur at the more granular, micro‐level of policy text.

Markup Centrality and International Incidence in Global Production Networks
Review of International Economics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper develops a framework to measure how markups amplify prices through global production networks and to attribute final‐demand price wedges to upstream country‐industry sources. The approach defines a compound markup as the ratio of observed prices to counterfactual pure‐cost prices that would prevail if all markups in the network were

Image of mathematics: A case study of two women's early mathematics experiences
School Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.Abstract People often view mathematics as abstract, cold, and irrelevant to real life, and their school experiences likely influence such views. In this case study, we investigated the mathematics experiences of two women who participated in an afterschool girls‐only STEM club 30 years ago when they were in fifth and sixth grades.
