Abstract Understanding peer effects is critical to evaluating the impact of de facto public
school segregation on the achievement of white and nonwhite students. Using a unique
panel data set of North Carolina public elementary school students, I estimate a model of ...

Because MBA programs require work experience before admittance, prior wages can be
exploited to disentangle the return to the degree from unobserved productivity. We find that
controlling for individual fixed effects generally reduces the estimated returns to an MBA, ...

Abstract Empirical studies of peer effects rely on the assumption that peer spillovers can be
measured through observables. However, in the education context, many theories of peer
spillovers center around unobservables, such as ability, effort or motivation. I show that ...

We propose a new strategy for a pervasive problem in the hedonics literature—recovering
hedonic prices in the presence of time-varying correlated unobservables. Our approach
relies on an assumption about homebuyer rationality, under which prior sales prices can ...

Abstract This paper provides a link between the theoretical and empirical models of peer
spillovers in the education context, informing the interpretation and identification of the
parameters of the empirical model and their applicability to policy. The point of departure ...

Abstract Increasingly, grade retention is viewed as an important alternative to social
promotion, yet evidence to date is unable to disentangle how the effect of grade retention
varies by abilities and over time. The key challenge is differential selection of students into ...

Abstract I use a detailed panel data set of North Carolina public elementary school students
to assess the relative value of diversity, equity and achievement in US public schools as
revealed by classroom peer grouping choices. The allocation of students to classrooms ...

Abstract In this paper, we develop a framework for analyzing models with multiple
treatments, focusing on the case where selection into treatment is sequential and hence
varies across treatment statuses. The setting we focus on in our application is on the effect ...

Abstract We explore the effect of progressive failure to meet AYP standards on school
performance. Using data on North Carolina public elementary schools, we employ both a
student level difference-in-difference analysis and a regression discontinuity approach to ...

Abstract This paper develops a new approach to identifying peer achievement spillovers in
the context of an equilibrium model of student effort choices. By focusing on the effect on
contemporaneous peer achievement, this framework integrates previously unexplored ...

Abstract Estimating the returns to education is difficult in part because we rarely observe the
counterfactual of the wages without the education. One of the advantages of examining the
returns to an MBA is that most programs require work experience before being admitted. ...

This paper contributes to a growing literature that attempts to determine whether disparities
in police stops and searches of potential criminals of different races stem from taste-based
discrimination. The key challenge in making this evaluation is that police officers have ...

Abstract In this paper, we develop a method to estimate dynamic treatment effects (where
the treatment effect varies over time) in situations where dynamic selection into treatment
may confound estimates of the treatment effect. We contrast various approaches to control ...

A central objective of studies of peer effects in education production is to determine whether
