SUMMARY:Ted Mouw: Introduction to the Triangle RDC
DESCRIPTION:On September 9\, 2022\, Ted Mouw (Sociology) will present “Introduction to the Triangle RDC” as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2022-2023 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \nMouw is a sociologist who studies labor markets\, immigration\, and social networks. His current research involves the mobility of low-wage workers\, the economic incorporation of immigrants\, and methods to collect samples from rare or hidden populations using social networks.

SUMMARY:CANCELED: Caroline Thompson: Modernizing Metrics of Population Cancer Burden
DESCRIPTION:This event has been canceled and will be rescheduled at a later date. \nOn September 16\, 2022\, Caroline Thompson (Epidemiology) will present “Modernizing Metrics of Population Cancer Burden” as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2022-2023 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \nThompson‘s substantive research aims to describe and understand population-level patterns of cancer screening and diagnosis and to identify drivers of disparities in cancer-related healthcare delivery and outcomes across populations. Methodologically\, she is interested in improving the valid research-use of complex\, longitudinal sources of routine healthcare data (e.g.\, medical claims and electronic health records) and the use of quantitative bias analysis to evaluate the impact of suspected sources of systematic error in observational research.

SUMMARY:Marcos Rangel\, First Impressions Matter: Evidence from Elementary-School Teachers
DESCRIPTION:On September 23\, 2022\, Marcos Rangel will present “First Impressions Matter: Evidence from Elementary-School Teachers” as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2022-2023 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \nRangel is an applied microeconomist. His research focuses on the patterns of accumulation of human capital with particular attention to the intra-family decision process (parents and children)\, to the impact of policies to foment education and health\, and to racial differentials. His research has contributed to a better understanding of how the negotiations between mother and fathers\, and also how families insert themselves into societies\, influence the allocation of resources towards investment in human capital of children. \n\n\nAbstract:\n\n\nWe study the empirical relevance of first impressions in the context of education. We find that teachers who begin their careers in classrooms with large White-Black incoming score differentials carry negative views into evaluations of future cohorts of Black students relative to their White classmates. Our evidence is based on novel data on blind evaluations and non-blind public school teacher assessments of fourth and fifth graders in North Carolina. Teachers’ perceptions are particularly sensitive to relatively low-performing Black students in early classrooms\, but not to relatively high-performing Black students. Since teacher expectations can shape grading patterns and sorting into academic tracks as well as students’ own beliefs and behaviors\, these findings suggest an important link between specific novice teachers’ initial experiences and the persistence of racial gaps in educational achievement and attainment.

SUMMARY:CANCELED: Julia Behrman\, Family Size Ideals in Flux? Change and Variation in the United States
DESCRIPTION:On September 30\, 2022\, Julia Behrman (Northwestern) will present “Family Size Ideals in Flux? Change and Variation in the United States” as part of the Carolina Population Center’s 2022-2023 Interdisciplinary Research Seminar Series. \nJulia Behrman’s research investigates the causes and consequences of family change in a global perspective. Her research explores how the institution of the family shapes and is shaped by key social phenomenon in four main areas: (i) educational expansion; (ii) environmental change\, natural disaster and climate shocks; (iii) expansion of women’s labor force participation; and (iv) migration. Much of her work is motivated by questions of power: who has power within families and how is it manifested? What events or experiences lead to changes in power dynamics within families? Do changes in family structures alleviate or perpetuate disadvantage between and within families? \nBehrman’s research has received funding from the National Science Foundation and South African Medical Research Council and her work has received awards from American Sociological Association Sections on Education\, Population\, and Development; the Society for the Study of Social Problems; the Population Association of America; and the Sociologist AIDS Network. Prior to starting at Northwestern\, she was a Postdoctoral Prize Research Fellow in Sociology at Nuffield College\, University of Oxford. She received her PhD from New York University in 2017.
