Remember that recent paper claiming to show that "ideological bias" determined the results obtained by immigration policy research teams? A careful, open-code reanalysis by @kauspurg.bsky.social & Josef Brüderl finds that the result arises from a coding error. —> doi.org/10.31222/osf...
It’s almost as if they were ideologically predisposed toward finding ideological bias
Very lucky to have been able to collaborate on this Annual Review piece on luck with @fabriberna.bsky.social, William Foley and @l-sage.bsky.social. We propose that the role of luck in life can be upper-bounded with machine learning and lower-bounded by adding up causal effects of random events.

🚨I have a new paper out in PNAS with my co-authors, @maxbradley.bsky.social @renschazottes.bsky.social and @ninalopezuroz.bsky.social: "Educational policies can strengthen climate coalitions." A thread on what we found (and a great story about doing ambitious research without funding!) [1/9]
Great shot and great to have @acastroaraujo.bsky.social at @eui-sps.bsky.social here in Florence the next 2 years!

"Applying our approach to a major Dutch cultural controversy, we show that the inclusion of negative interactions provides a new empirical picture of the dynamics of online polarization." Just out in our journal, @sociologicalsci.bsky.social
"I show that the seemingly innocuous decision to restrict analyses to data where different income groups’ policy support differs (i.e., a preference gap exists) introduced Simpson’s paradox" Just out in our journal, @sociologicalsci.bsky.social
"[A]n individual whose taste profile in general includes more legitimate tastes is perceived more favorably in terms of status and qualities but less favorably in terms of sociability" Just out in our journal, @sociologicalsci.bsky.social
@simonhix.bsky.social, thanks for everything! You've done so much for us at @eui-sps.bsky.social and we will miss you dearly.

New paper out in Annual Review of Sociology with @arnoutvanderijt.bsky.social #W.Foley and @l-sage.bsky.social "Luck and Predictability in the Life Course" We take stock of what we know about luck and its role in shaping life-courses and inequality www.annualreviews.org/content/jour...
I am very excited to be returning to LSE and joining @lsepublicpolicy.bsky.social. Eager to help develop this already fantastic policy school, co-teach with @alicirone.bsky.social, and launch a new course on "Designing Democracy”.
