SUMMARY:Andrés Villarreal\, University of Maryland
DESCRIPTION:Title: Immigrants’ Economic Assimilation: Evidence from Matched Administrative Records \nAbstract: Immigrants’ ability to succeed in the labor market and achieve economic parity with natives has significant long-term implications for their well-being and that of their children. In this talk I will present findings from two studies examining immigrants’ economic assimilation using a dataset that links respondents of the Survey of Income and Program Participation (SIPP) to their individual tax records. The first study examines the lifetime earnings trajectories of immigrants and measures the extent and speed with which they are able to reduce the earnings gap with natives. Findings from this study address key debates regarding ethnoracial and cohort differences in immigrants’ earnings trajectories. First\, we find a racially differentiated pattern of earnings assimilation: black and Hispanic immigrants are less able to catch up with native whites’ earnings compared to white and Asian immigrants\, but they are almost able to reach earnings parity with natives of their same race and ethnicity. Second\, contrary to previous studies we find no evidence that recent immigrant cohorts are experiencing lower earnings growth. The second study examines immigrants’ job instability. We find that foreign-born men\, particularly those who are undocumented\, were at higher risk of losing their job and becoming involuntarily underemployed during the Great Recession even after controlling for demographic factors and job characteristics. \nMore on Prof. Villarreal

SUMMARY:Matt Harding\, UC Irvine
DESCRIPTION:Title: Small steps with Big Data: Using Machine Learning in Resource Economics \nAbstract: This talk looks at how recent developments in Big Data and Machine Learning are being used in conjunction with randomized controlled trials and large population level program evaluations to design\, implement and measure efforts to change consumer behavior. We will explore the role played by very detailed consumption data (often at 15 minute intervals)\, as well as recent techniques such as deep learning to help us better understand individual and population behaviors\, and which insights from behavioral sciences are effective at changing behaviors in areas such as energy conservation and efficiency. \nMore on Prof. Harding

SUMMARY:Alan Murray\, UC Santa Barbara
DESCRIPTION:Title: Population Vulnerability and Spatial Analytics \nAbstract: There has been a transition from population studies that were relatively data poor to the present day where digital data is plentiful on many fronts. The “Smart City” is fed by sources of information coming from all directions\, where sensors observe things about the movement of vehicles and people\, infrastructure conditions\, air quality\, weather\, etc. The challenge is to make use of this digital data\, and this is precisely the value added offered by a range of big data spatial analytics. This paper examines aspects of population vulnerability\, focusing on particular types of risks and hazards in urban areas. \nMore on Prof. Murray

SUMMARY:Martha Bailey\, University of Michigan
DESCRIPTION:Title: Prep School for Poor Kids: The Long-Run Impacts of Head Start on Human Capital and Economic Self-Sufficiency \nAbstract: This paper evaluates the long-run effects of Head Start using large-scale\, restricted 2000-2013 Census-ACS data linked to date and place of birth in the SSA’s Numident file. Using the county-level rollout of Head Start between 1965 and 1980 and state age-eligibility cutoffs for school entry\, we find that participation in Head Start is associated with increases in adult human capital and economic self-sufficiency\, including a 0.29-year increase in schooling\, a 2.1-percent increase in high-school completion\, an 8.7-percent increase in college enrollment\, and a 19-percent increase in college completion. These estimates imply sizable\, longterm returns to investing in large-scale preschool programs. \nMore on Prof. Bailey
