Title: Born Too Soon? The Educational Costs of Early Elective Deliveries (with Parijat Maitra)

Abstract: Low birthweight is linked to adverse long-term outcomes, including lower educational attainment. However, disentangling the causes of this association is challenging, as low birthweight can result from both shortened gestation and impaired fetal growth. We leverage a natural experiment in Spain, where a surge in early elective deliveries, triggered by the cancellation of a generous child benefit, led to lower birthweight and reduced gestational age for non-medical reasons. Using a difference-in-differences approach with adjacent cohorts as controls, we find that early birth had no lasting impact on health outcomes, but affected children performed significantly worse in school, pointing to detrimental effects on cognitive development.

Title: Delegated Bidding
Abstract: We study an interaction in which principals must hire agents
to bid in an auction. The agents can exert unobserved and costly effort
to collect information about the value of the object. The optimal remuneration
scheme must induce the agents to exert effort and then appropriately
condition their bids on their information. The principals thus face
a competing-mechanisms problem with interdependence valuations among
the agents. We identify conditions under which the principals’ mechanismchoice
game has a pure equilibrium. We characterize the distortions induced
in the agents’ bidding schemes by the principals’ efforts to reduce the agents’
rents, and characterize circumstances under which these distortions induce
overbidding.

Title: Embedding careers in the curriculum: evaluation of a programme level approach for Economics undergraduates.

Jointly with Dr Yaprak Tavman (University of York)

Abstract: Embedding career development within academic curricula has gained attention as an effective strategy to prepare students for the labour market (Bridgstock et al, 2019) and address inequity in graduate outcomes (Flynn et al, 2022).

Our objective is to evaluate a series of initiatives implemented by the Economics department at the University of York in collaboration with Careers (York Strengths) and external partners (York Health Economics Consultancy, HM Treasury). They are designed to embed career-oriented elements into the curriculum revolving around three themes: self-awareness, discovery and development planning; work-related learning and professional skills; reflective practice and translation of learning into the world of work.

The primary objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of these initiatives in achieving the following outcomes: (1) Supporting students to connect academic theories and concepts with their future career aspirations; (2) Designing assessments that are both authentic to professional contexts and encourage reflective thinking; (3) Reducing disparities among students, ensuring equitable access to career development opportunities and improved confidence in graduate transitions.

The presentation will share preliminary results, utilising anonymous online surveys from Economics students at the University of York. The focus will be on students’ perceptions of the initiatives, their confidence in linking academic learning to career opportunities, and the perceived inclusivity and fairness of career support embedded in the curriculum.

Title: The Distributional Consequences of Trade: Evidence from the Repeal of the Corn Laws (with S. Redding and Y. Zylberberg)

Abstract: We examine the distributional consequences of trade using the Repeal of the Corn Laws and the Grain Invasion during the 19th-century. We use a newly-created dataset on population, employment by sector, property values, and poor law transfers for over 10,000 parishes in England andWales from 1801–1901. In response to this trade shock, we show that locations with high-wheat suitability experience population decline, rural-urban migration, structural transformation away from agriculture, increases in welfare transfers, and declines in property values, relative to locations with low-wheat suitability. We develop a quantitative spatial model to evaluate the aggregate economic implications of these findings. Undertaking counterfactuals for the Grain Invasion, we show that geography is an important dimension along which the distributional effects of trade occur.

About the Speaker

Leanne Spencer is a keynote speaker and wellbeing consultant, with over 10 years’ experience in wellbeing and 13 qualifications in exercise and nutrition. Leanne began her career in sales and spent over 15 years working in the City of London before leaving in 2012 to set up an award-winning wellbeing company, after suffering from burnout. Leanne is the bestselling author of three books, hosts a podcast and is a Bear Grylls Survival Instructor.

Leanne’s keynote shows our students and members of staff how to beat burnout and have more fun using her unique Cadence Approach™. Today’s business environment is fast-paced and demanding, and the COVID-19 pandemic has added new stresses to people’s lives.

The ability to adapt to ever-changing circumstances is a vital skill, and one which we can learn from some of the most resilient people in society – athletes. Leanne’s methodology will inspire our students and members of staff to see themselves as business athletes, showing them how to manage their energy, reduce stress and minimise risk of burnout by following the simple and innovative 4-step process.

Title: Born Too Soon? The Educational Costs of Early Elective Deliveries (with Parijat Maitra)

Abstract: Low birthweight is linked to adverse long-term outcomes, including lower educational attainment. However, disentangling the causes of this association is challenging, as low birthweight can result from both shortened gestation and impaired fetal growth. We leverage a natural experiment in Spain, where a surge in early elective deliveries, triggered by the cancellation of a generous child benefit, led to lower birthweight and reduced gestational age for non-medical reasons. Using a difference-in-differences approach with adjacent cohorts as controls, we find that early birth had no lasting impact on health outcomes, but affected children performed significantly worse in school, pointing to detrimental effects on cognitive development.

Title: Delegated Bidding
Abstract: We study an interaction in which principals must hire agents
to bid in an auction. The agents can exert unobserved and costly effort
to collect information about the value of the object. The optimal remuneration
scheme must induce the agents to exert effort and then appropriately
condition their bids on their information. The principals thus face
a competing-mechanisms problem with interdependence valuations among
the agents. We identify conditions under which the principals’ mechanismchoice
game has a pure equilibrium. We characterize the distortions induced
in the agents’ bidding schemes by the principals’ efforts to reduce the agents’
rents, and characterize circumstances under which these distortions induce
overbidding.

Title: Embedding careers in the curriculum: evaluation of a programme level approach for Economics undergraduates.

Jointly with Dr Yaprak Tavman (University of York)

Abstract: Embedding career development within academic curricula has gained attention as an effective strategy to prepare students for the labour market (Bridgstock et al, 2019) and address inequity in graduate outcomes (Flynn et al, 2022).

Our objective is to evaluate a series of initiatives implemented by the Economics department at the University of York in collaboration with Careers (York Strengths) and external partners (York Health Economics Consultancy, HM Treasury). They are designed to embed career-oriented elements into the curriculum revolving around three themes: self-awareness, discovery and development planning; work-related learning and professional skills; reflective practice and translation of learning into the world of work.

The primary objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of these initiatives in achieving the following outcomes: (1) Supporting students to connect academic theories and concepts with their future career aspirations; (2) Designing assessments that are both authentic to professional contexts and encourage reflective thinking; (3) Reducing disparities among students, ensuring equitable access to career development opportunities and improved confidence in graduate transitions.

The presentation will share preliminary results, utilising anonymous online surveys from Economics students at the University of York. The focus will be on students’ perceptions of the initiatives, their confidence in linking academic learning to career opportunities, and the perceived inclusivity and fairness of career support embedded in the curriculum.

Title: The Distributional Consequences of Trade: Evidence from the Repeal of the Corn Laws (with S. Redding and Y. Zylberberg)

Abstract: We examine the distributional consequences of trade using the Repeal of the Corn Laws and the Grain Invasion during the 19th-century. We use a newly-created dataset on population, employment by sector, property values, and poor law transfers for over 10,000 parishes in England andWales from 1801–1901. In response to this trade shock, we show that locations with high-wheat suitability experience population decline, rural-urban migration, structural transformation away from agriculture, increases in welfare transfers, and declines in property values, relative to locations with low-wheat suitability. We develop a quantitative spatial model to evaluate the aggregate economic implications of these findings. Undertaking counterfactuals for the Grain Invasion, we show that geography is an important dimension along which the distributional effects of trade occur.
