SUMMARY:Manasi Deshpande\, The University of Chicago\, "Explaining the Historical Rise and Recent Decline in Social Security Disability Insurance Enrollment"
DESCRIPTION:Biography:  Manasi Deshpande is an associate professor of economics with tenure at the University of Chicago Kenneth C. Griffin Department of Economics and a faculty research fellow at the National Bureau of Economic Research. Her research interests include the optimal design of social safety net programs\, their interaction with labor markets\, and their effects on consumption\, health\, and well-being. She has received the Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellowship\, NSF CAREER award\, and William T. Grant Scholarship. Her dissertation on the long-term effects of disability programs received the 2015 APPAM Dissertation Award\, the 2015 Upjohn Institute Dissertation Award\, and the 2016 NASI John Heinz Dissertation Award. She holds a Ph.D. in economics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and was previously a postdoctoral fellow at the National Bureau of Economic Research and the Becker-Friedman Institute.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExplaining the Historical Rise and Recent Decline in Social Security Disability Insurance Enrollment\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbstract: After substantial growth in the 1990s and 2000s\, enrollment in the U.S. Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) program has been declining since 2013. We use detailed administrative data to quantify the contributions of various factors to trends in SSDI enrollment\, focusing especially on the decline in the 2010s. A statistical decomposition suggests that the vast majority of the decline in SSDI enrollment since 2013 is attributable to declines in application rates and\, to a lesser extent\, award rates\, within demographic groups\, rather than changes over time in demographic characteristics\, eligibility\, or rates of exit from SSDI. The decline in SSDI enrollment rates is disproportionately driven by older low-to-middle-skilled men with relatively severe health conditions who\, over time\, have become less likely to apply for SSDI and more likely to work. Consistent with this descriptive evidence\, we present results from a causal analysis suggesting that improved labor market opportunities for older middle-skilled men could explain the decline in SSDI enrollment. We also present a set of causal estimates that rule out several popular hypotheses for the decline in SSDI applications\, including lower award rates at the appeal level\, a higher administrative burden of applying\, greater generosity of other programs\, and reductions in pollution and smoking.

SUMMARY:Stefanie DeLuca\, Johns Hopkins University\, “Colleges that obviously don’t have what you need”: Risk\, Social Mobility and the Postsecondary Decisions of Low-Income Students”
DESCRIPTION:Biography: Stefanie DeLuca is the James Coleman Professor of Social Policy and Sociology at the Johns Hopkins University\, Director of the Poverty and Inequality Research Lab\, and Research Principal at Opportunity Insights at Harvard University. She co-authored Coming of Age in the Other America (with Susan Clampet-Lundquist and Kathryn Edin)\, which was named an Outstanding Academic Title from the American Library Association and won the William F. Goode Award from the American Sociological Association. Her work has been funded by the Department of Housing and Urban Development\, National Science Foundation\, Russell Sage Foundation\, Annie E. Casey Foundation\, Spencer Foundation\, MacArthur Foundation\, Abell Foundation\, Smith Richardson Foundation\, National Academy of Education\, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the Department of Education\, among others. She contributes frequently to national and local media\, including The Atlantic\, Baltimore Sun\, The Economist\, The New Yorker\, The New York Times\, The Wall Street Journal\, The Washington Post\, and National Public Radio. Stefanie has been invited to share her research to support policy recommendations at the federal level at the Department of Housing and Urban Development\, the Department of Education\, the Department of Health and Human Services\, and has provided briefings and testimony for several state legislatures and in federal court on behalf of the plaintiffs in the Baltimore Thompson v. HUD housing desegregation case. She currently serves on a Federal Research Advisory Commission at the Department of Housing and Urban Development. Stefanie’s other awards and honors include the Publicly Engaged Scholar Award from the Community and Urban Sociology Section of the American Sociological Association\, Scholar of the Year by the National Alliance of Resident Services in Assisted and Affordable Housing\, William T. Grant Faculty Scholars Award\, Johns Hopkins University Alumni Excellence in Teaching Award\, and election to the Sociological Research Association. \n  \n\n\n\nColleges that obviously don’t have what you need: Risk\, Social Mobility and the Postsecondary Decisions of Low-Income Students\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbstract: While postsecondary education enrollment rates have soared over the last few decades\, dilemmas remain about how to support young adults as they navigate paths after high school. On the one hand\, postsecondary education plays a vital role in promoting intergenerational mobility\, increasing earnings\, and improving job quality. On the other hand\, there are large and growing gaps in college attendance\, college quality\, and college completion rates by family income\, leaving many young adults with only ‘some college’ and a relatively unsupported and sooner-than-expected transition to work. As a policy response\, selective colleges and universities have tried to increase opportunities for low-income students on their campuses\, with some significantly investing in financial aid expansions and other supportive interventions. One example is an experimentally evaluated intervention at the University of Michigan (UM) called the HAIL Scholarship Study\, which tests whether a personalized offer of a guaranteed four-years of financial aid can increase enrollment of students from low-income families. HAIL has been very successful\, more than doubling application and enrollment at UM among Michigan students from low-income families. However\, one-third of the students who received the HAIL offer never applied to UM and one-fifth of those admitted did not attend UM. How do we explain such decisions? We use qualitative interviews with 136 low-income high-achieving high school seniors from the HAIL intervention to understand how they experienced and assessed risk in the college decision-making process. We find that low-income students –even high-performing low-income students with the tuition-guarantee—worry about whether the investment in a four-year degree is worth it. In particular\, we observe a profound fear of failure as students worry that they will not complete their bachelor’s degrees and/or they worry that their college education will not pay off in terms of job or financial stability. The fear of non-completion seems to stem from several sources\, including: the inability to perform well academically while at a selective institution; indecision about major and finding something of interest that will lead to a solid career; being away from social support; and concerns about shocks that might occur to derail them. As a result of this risk assessment\, students enact a number of mitigation strategies to get a better sense of what they want to do\, many resulting in an indefinite delay of their college enrollment.

SUMMARY:Marco Tabellini\, Harvard Business School\, Climate Matching in Migration: From the American Frontier to Prehistory
DESCRIPTION:Biography: Marco Tabellini is an assistant professor in the Business\, Government\, and International Economy unit and is affiliated with the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER)\, the Center for Economic Policy Research (CEPR)\, RF Berlin\, and IZA. He explores how international and internal migration reshapes politics\, societies\, and the economy. His work investigates when and why immigration stirs political backlash\, what drives successful social integration\, and how migration alters societal boundaries in diverse countries such as the United States. He also examines the economic consequences of immigration\, including its effects on labor markets and growth. Finally\, his research sheds light on the role of climate as a powerful force shaping migration flows across time and place. \n  \nClimate Matching in Migration: From the American Frontier to Prehistory\nAbstract: We examine how climate shapes human migration across both modern history and deep prehistory. Drawing on rich U.S. census and administrative data\, we show that migrants systematically sort into destinations whose climates resemble those of their origins\, a pattern we term climate matching. This pattern holds for both international and internal migration\, across historical (1850–1920) and modern (1970–2020) periods\, and played a central role in shaping the geography of U.S. settlement\, population growth\, and economic activity. We then push these ideas back into prehistory\, using ancient DNA to trace related individuals buried hundreds or thousands of kilometers apart. Linking these inferred migration flows to paleoclimate reconstructions reveals that even prehistoric populations tended to move along ecological corridors and into familiar climatic zones.

SUMMARY:Workshop: Brandon Stewart\, Princeton University\, "Using Large Language Model Annotations for the Social Sciences: A General Framework of Using Predicted Variables in Statistical Analyses"
DESCRIPTION:Biography: Brandon Stewart is Associate Professor of Sociology at Princeton University where he is also affiliated with the Office of Population Research and numerous other centers on campus. He currently serves as the Co-Editor-in-Chief of Political Analysis and Associate Editor at Sociological Methods & Research. His work spans several areas of computational social science with a focus on text as data and causal inference. \n  \n\n\n\n“Using Large Language Model Annotations for the Social Sciences: A General Framework of Using Predicted Variables in Statistical Analyses”\n\n\n\nAbstract: Social scientists use automated annotation methods\, such as supervised machine learning and\, more recently\, large language models (LLMs)\, that can predict labels and generate text-based variables. While such predicted text-based variables are often analyzed as if they were observed without errors\, we show that ignoring prediction errors in the automated annotation step leads to substantial bias and invalid confidence intervals in downstream analyses\, even if the accuracy of the automated annotations is high\, e.g.\, above 90%. We propose a framework of design-based supervised learning (DSL) that can provide valid statistical estimates\, even when predicted variables contain non-random prediction errors. DSL employs a doubly robust procedure to combine predicted labels and a smaller number of expert annotations. DSL allows scholars to apply advances in LLMs to social science research while maintaining statistical validity. We illustrate its general applicability using two applications where the outcome and independent variables are text-based.

SUMMARY:Workshop: Kara Rudolph\, Columbia University\, Causal Mediation Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Biography: Kara Rudolph is an epidemiologist interested in developing and applying causal inference methods to better understand the prevention and treatment of substance use disorders. Currently\, she is a Associate Professor of Epidemiology at Columbia University. Her current work focuses on developing and applying methods for transportability and mediation to understand mechanisms relevant for drug use disorder prevention and treatment in various target populations. More generally\, her work on generalizing/ transporting findings from study samples to target populations and identifying subpopulations most likely to benefit from interventions contributes to efforts to optimally target available policy and program resources. She has completed a PhD in Epidemiology and an MHS in Biostatistics from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and was a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Health and Society Scholar. \nCausal Mediation Workshop\nCausal mediation analysis can provide a mechanistic understanding of how an exposure impacts an outcome\, a central goal in epidemiology and health sciences. However\, rapid methodologic developments coupled with few formal courses presents challenges to implementation. Beginning with an overview of classical direct and indirect effects\, this workshop will present recent advances that overcome limitations of previous methods\, allowing for: (i) continuous exposures\, (ii) multiple\, non-independent mediators\, and (iii) effects identifiable in the presence of intermediate confounders affected by exposure. Emphasis will be placed on flexible\, stochastic and interventional direct and indirect effects\, highlighting how these may be applied to answer substantive epidemiological questions from real-world studies. Multiply robust\, nonparametric estimators of these causal effects\, and free and open source R packages (crumble) for their application\, will be introduced. To aid translation to real-world data analysis\, this workshop will incorporate hands-on R programming exercises to allow participants practice in implementing the statistical tools presented. It is recommended that participants have working knowledge of the basic notions of causal inference\, including counterfactuals and identification (linking the causal effect to a parameter estimable from the observed data distribution). Familiarity with the R programming language is also recommended. \n  \nAn recording of Kara Rudolph’s presentation may be accessed here.

SUMMARY:"How to do Differences-in-Differences" Workshop
DESCRIPTION:CCPR will host an in-person workshop\, “How to do Difference-in-Differences\,” with Pedro Sant’Anna.  Difference-in-Differences (DiD) is among the most popular strategies to identify causal effects in observational studies. The workshop will update you on this fast-moving literature and best practices with hands-on practice in R and Stata. \n  \nFor Ph.D. students\, post-docs\, faculty (or anyone who would like to attend\, space permitting). \nTopics include: \n\nA deep-dive into canonical DiD methods\nUnderstanding limitations of linear two-way fixed effects regressions\nAllowing for heterogeneous treatment effects when treatment timing varies\nAllowing for covariate-specific trends\n\n  \nA recording of Dr. Sant’Anna’s presentation may be accessed here.
