BREAKING: new study just dropped that shows compelling evidence that cell phone bans cause student grades to modestly increase.

Grade increases are largest among low performing students. Image
Some other interesting findings from the cell phone ban study:

Students exposed to the cell phone ban were substantially more (!) supportive of phone-use restrictions.

The ban increased students' perceptions of greater benefits from these bans and reduced students preferences for unrestricted access.Image
Despite a mild rise in reported fear of missing out, there were no significant changes in overall student well-being, academic motivation, digital usage, or experiences of online harassment. Image

This figure is striking.

It shows the relationship between where people think they are in the income distribution and where they actually are.

Observations below the line indicate that people think they are poorer than they really are (and the reverse above the line).

If you answered "people think they are poorer than they really are", you'd be right!

Wow! This project looks amazing.

In it, three scientists at Columbia, Michigan, and Maryland introduce VRscores: a measure of the partisan leanings of employers in the United States.

The dataset is constructed by linking U.S. voter registrations to online worker profiles.

The dataset covers the 2012-2022 period. VRscores capture the political affiliations of 21.8 million workers across 2.6 million employers.

Wow!Image

Overall, many employers in their sample have a distinct Democratic tilt. Look at how few sectors are dominated by Republicans!

{This could have something to do with what orgs are in their database, but their sample is quite large!} Image
Look at how liberal Universities {left screenshot} are relative to their entire sample of employers {right screenshot}. Image
