Being featured (at about 39:50) on a podcast with the tagline "where sanity takes a backseat and laughter rides shotgun" and the episode title "Radioactive Shrimp" wasn't on my professorial bingo card, but it was a pleasure! www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5Mq...

Thank you so much @davonnorris.bsky.social for the time you spent with the CRELS & CSS fellows and us yesterday, answering our questions and sharing your experiences. .. and then a full house at the Social Science Matrix for your talk. A memorable experience, including the earthquake❗ 🫨

Women now earn 85% of what men do, up from 65% in the ‘80s. ISR’s Sasha Killewald finds fewer children per family helped narrow the gap. But parenthood still impacts women’s pay more than men’s. Read more: myumi.ch/qZEp1

From the @theconversation.com today by @maggielevenstein.bsky.social & @johnkubale.bsky.social “Data that taxpayers have paid for and rely on is disappearing – here’s how it’s happening and what you can do about it.”‬ #academicsky #data #umich @icpsr.bsky.social @umisr.bsky.social

I posted a comment on Rubin's Theory & Society article, "Normativity is not a replacement for theory" in @socarxiv.bsky.social. The theory, that activism-motivated scholars caused the decline in theory, is unsupported by the evidence and fails on its own terms. Download here: osf.io/fyvdr_v1/dow...

Welcome to Bluesky, @umisr.bsky.social! 🥳 #academicsky #GoBlue

Unlike claims that the new tax & spending bill will supercharge growth, the shrinking safety net could take a toll on local economies. @robertmanduca.bsky.social‬ from @umichstonecid.bsky.social says the impact will have rippling consequences myumi.ch/MkxAR @um-psc.bsky.social

The U.S. Inequality Tracker is here! This tool examines the distribution of income and wealth over time in the U.S., tracking how economic growth and well-being varies across households and changes over time. To see how the Tracker works, check out the video demo: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cz5M...

A new working paper from @umichstonecid.bsky.social/SRC researcher @robertmanduca.bsky.social examining the geography of social transfer programs & implications for cuts to Medicaid & SNAP in the recently signed federal budget. Also see: equitablegrowth.org/medicaid-and...

Reductions to essential public programs in the budget reconciliation bill impact more than beneficiaries. They affect key service providers, local businesses, and community stability. @robertmanduca.bsky.social on Medicaid and SNAP cuts impacting local economies:

New working paper alert! Posted at @equitablegrowth.bsky.social, it investigates the economic geography of social transfer programs and financial income--with implications for the Medicaid and SNAP cuts proposed in the reconciliation bill 👀 equitablegrowth.org/working-pape...

Check out the latest from me in ASQ! I draw on theorizing by Du Bois and Fanon to provide insight into how reactivity to being scored differs across racial groups. You can also find replication files here: www.openicpsr.org/openicpsr/pr...

"Research shows that being scored often induces anxiety and alters the behavior of those being evaluated. But who does this affect and why? Our own @davonnorris.bsky.social shows us that the experience of being scored differs across racial groups. Learn more in his new publication: myumi.ch/8qJ45.
