@laiabalcells 1-and-3/4 hours would be a lot of time to dedicate to a paper that only takes 45 minutes to read. But I agree in principle. For a traditional panel, I'd learn a lot more from 5 published papers than from 5 works-in-progress. I'd likely go to more panels if that were the norm

I'm tempted to caption this first picture "centering the patriarchy" since you all deliberately put me front and center for comedic effect. As the second photo indicates, I'm not the *only* "boy" who studies victimhood :) Thanks for a great workshop @j_golubovic & @YessinkaH!!!

@_Jon_Green @klunztrujillo I kinda actually like the new term. I feel like we should adopt it in cases where something is both statistically significant and substantively meaningful. Of course, I'm not sure anything related this issue is substantively meaningful

@_cingraham It's actually a pretty valid empirical question. We hear all the time about "peer pressure" in middle/high school, but to what extent is this peer pressure explicit (e.g., cool kids tell you to do drugs) vs. implicit (e.g., you ask for drugs in order to impress/gain acceptance)?
