SUMMARY:Alexandra DE GENDRE (University of Melbourne) "Child Health and Parental Responses to an Unconditional Cash Transfer at Birth"
DESCRIPTION:The Micro Seminar:\nTime: 12:15 pm – 13:15 pm\nDate: 11th of January 2023 \nRoom 3001 \nAlexandra DE GENDRE (University of Melbourne) “Child Health and Parental Responses to an Unconditional Cash Transfer at Birth” \nAbstract : We estimate the impact on child health of the unanticipated introduction of the Australian Baby Bonus\, a $3\,000 one-off unconditional cash transfer at birth. Using regression discontinuity methods and linked administrative data from South Australia\, we find that treated babies had fewer preventable\, acute\, and urgent hospital presentations—medical care available without co-payments—in the first two years of life. The payment later increased demand for elective care\, which requires planning\, medical referrals\, and often co-payments. Our effects are strongest for disadvantaged families. Our findings suggest that up to 34% of the payout were recouped within the first year. \nJoint work : John Lynch\, Aurélie Meunier\, Rhiannon Pilkington\, and Stefanie Schurer \nSponsors:\nCREST \n

SUMMARY:Nicolas SALAMANCA (University of Melbourne) "Do Same-Sex Teachers Affect Test Scores and Job Preferences? A Super-Study and a Meta-Analysis on Role Model Effects in Education"
DESCRIPTION:The Micro Seminar:\nTime: 12:15 pm – 13:15 pm\nDate: 11th of January 2023 \nRoom 3001 \nNicolas SALAMANCA (University of Melbourne) “Do Same-Sex Teachers Affect Test Scores and Job Preferences? A Super-Study and a Meta-Analysis on Role Model Effects in Education” \nAbstract : Previous studies provide contradicting evidence on same-sex role model effects in education. We resolve those contradictions with a meta-analysis and a super-study. Our meta-analysis summarizes 538 estimates\, and our super-study provides new evidence from 90 countries and 3 million students. Both approaches show that role model effects on students’ performance are small: 0.030 SD in the meta-analysis and 0.015 SD in the super-study. Beyond test scores\, our super-study documents larger role model effects of 0.063 SD on job preferences\, which are concentrated in rich and gender-equal countries. Furthermore\, our results suggest that same-sex role model effects can be positive or negative for 4th grade students but are near universally positive for 8th grade students. \nJoint work : Alexandra de Gendre\, Jan Feld and Ulf Zölitz \nSponsors:\nCREST \n
