...Thus, at the moment, I remain skeptical about the benefits of #GenAI in learning, outside of expert-in-the-loop uses (e.g., a teacher using it to craft personalized versions of lesson materials, which the teacher can critically evaluate and refine because of their expertise)... (6/n)

Ich finde es viel spannender und mich interessieren die Ergebnisse der anderen viel mehr. Hab vorher aber auch nur BvB-Spiele geschaut und ist jetzt immer noch so.

I love this chapter by Felix Elwert, who writes for a sociology audience and is a very clear writer: doi.org/10.1007/978-...

Sahin has not lost a game at home. Would be a perfect story if BVB would win against Bayern at home as well. But most of the times when I thought we would have a chance, we lost. So 🤷

To collect income taxes, almost all countries require employers to withhold monthly tax prepayments which are then fully credited against the final income tax liabilities of their employees. Despite being a fundamental component of income taxation systems worldwide, the impact of these withholding taxes on labor supply is poorly understood. We investigate their importance in the context of married couples in Germany where the withholding tax liability can be redistributed between spouses. We exploit a reform that reduced the withholding tax for some married women more than for others, while inducing no differences in income taxes. Using administrative data for the full population of German taxpayers, we estimate an elasticity of labor income with respect to the withholding tax eight years after the reform of 0.14. Additional evidence from a self-conducted survey suggests imperfect understanding of the tax system and limited pooling of resources within the household as the main mechanisms. As the majority of couples shift parts of the withholding tax liability from the husband to the wife, our results suggest that the increased withholding tax liability of married women contributes to their low labor supply. This highlights the need for governments to be aware of the distortion of labor supply incentives when the design of withholding taxes does not match actual income tax incentives.

Hello #EconSky!

📢Excited to share my #JMP 📢

It provides a missing piece to understand how people react to income taxation.

Tldr: By changing tax pre-payments governments can - with almost no costs - increase perceived work incentives of secondary earners and reduce the gender gap.

So similar in many ways, but so different in others.

I am collecting data in university courses over 2-3 cohorts. So good to see that learning behaviour is mostly similar across cohorts with a similar effect on exam performance (stay tuned for specific results). But what a pain to explain differences in taking the first or second exam, etc.

Is this only happening in econometrics or does something similar exist in #education #psychology ? I would be happy to try out something like this.

Apart from daily participation here, is there a website to practice these DAGs? Like guessthecorrelation.com?

Hi Learning Scholars! Which publication is currently everyone’s fav to link log-data to SRL behavior? Or that shows which log-data help to measure SRL behavior? Or an overview of which variables generated from clicks reflect SRL behavior? #SRL #Clicks #LearningScholars
