Discussing on another site with an employee of the Dutch statistical agency is very concerned about administrative data. This after a survey finds that 6.4% of the Dutch population would consider choosing a third gender marker if gender self-id law made it easy.

NOS/Nieuwsuur maakte vorige week een alarmistisch item over onvrije debatcultuur aan Nederlandse universiteiten. Mirko Tobias Schäfer en ik schreven er een opiniestuk over: 'Dat de academische vrijheid onder druk staat, komt niet door linkse cancelcultuur.' dub.uu.nl/nl/opinie/un...

✨Accepted for Publication ✨ "Surveying Citizens with a Migration Background - A Quantitative Study of Identification versus Categorization" Coming soon in the journal Survey Research Methods. Read the pre-print here: doi.org/10.31219/osf...

Trying to hit 10k followers on my birthday with this post. Girlfriend said it couldn’t be done. She’s probably right anyway

For all the people who didn't have time to read my dissertation back-to-back: (I'm guessing that's everyone 😄) The journal PLC published a 1000-word summary I wrote of my dissertation, with a review from my favourite author of my PhD: Dr. LaFleur Stephens-Dougan from Pinceton University. Enjoy!

it's time we put the things i promised in my research proposal behind us

Economists looking at an idea from sociology literature that they will be the first to write a paper on.

Just learned that yet another university investigation into abuse of PhDs ended with a "recommendation" the professor talk to a labourr lawyer—no sanctions, no ban on supervising students. When will we stop tolerating abuse of junior scholars?

Our colleagues Pelin Atay and Susanne Veit were also presenting results of the EqualStrength project at the #ISPP2025 Annual Meeting in Prague

De asielwet was al vreselijk vóór de strafbaarstelling erin werd gefietst. Gezinsherening wordt doelbewust (vrijwel) onmogelijk gemaakt voor vluchtelingen uit oorlogsgebieden. Over medemenselijkheid gesproken.

Excited to be at the #IMISCOE conference in Paris this week! Will present work on intersectionality and stereotypes with new data from the @equalstrength.bsky.social project in the last session on Friday. Last session is the best session right?

Can't believe Gelman went for 'garden of forking paths' when 'choose your own adventure' was right there

#MorningReads Gender nonconformity leads to wage penalties for straight men & women but not for LGB workers. Using Add Health data, the study reveals how gender expression shapes labor market inequality beyond gender and sexual identity. #LGBTQData #socio #econ #stereotypes

Our new study finds among non-users whose parents looked for child care (CC): 34% cited shortage of spaces or waitlists as reasons for not using CC, 54% affordability, 43% subsidies as types of difficulties finding (CC). Link: www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/36-28... #ChildCare #DisabilityInclusion

In Nordic welfare states, not all family policies promote equality. A new AJS article by Evertsson, Moberg & van der Vleuten compares earnings penalties in same- and different-sex couples across countries, showing how policy design shapes work–care divisions www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/...

Gearing up for the Annual Conference of IMISCOE, in Paris. Next week, our @equalstrength.bsky.social team will be presenting fresh results from multi-sited survey and field experiments on prejudice, intersectional stereotypes and discrimination conducted in 9 European countries. Stay tuned!

@sbvanoosten.bsky.social and @stefaniesprong.bsky.social doing a great job presenting results on discrimination in access to childcare in 9 European countries from our @equalstrength.bsky.social project at the Migration & Societal Change conference @utrechtuniversity.bsky.social.

Trying to get a sense of what is a small/big amount of between-context variance in multilevel models, e.g. from schools, classrooms, neighborhoods. Anyone now of a review or similar with such numbers? #socsky

The bots and scammers traumatized us so badly, we had to write a paper to process it.

Ok academic bsky let's see if you're worth your salt! I need references for the idea that Chetty-style mobility are not real but artefacts of transitory shocks, small sample bias etc etc
