DESCRIPTION:Who Benefits from Meritocracy? (with Santiago Pérez) Does scr
 eening applicants using exams help or hurt the chances of lower-SES cand
 idates? Because individuals from lower socioeconomic backgrounds fare\, 
 on average\, worse than those from richer backgrounds in standardized te
 sts\, a common concern with this “meritocratic” approach is that it migh
 t have a negative impact on the opportunities of lower-SES individuals. 
 However\, an alternative view is that\, even if such applicants underper
 formed on exams\, other (potentially more discretionary and less imperso
 nal) selection criteria might put them at an even worse disadvantage. We
  investigate this question using evidence from the 1883 Pendleton Act\, 
 a landmark reform in American history which introduced competitive exams
  to select certain federal employees. Using newly assembled data on the 
 socioeconomic backgrounds of government employees and a difference-in-di
 fferences strategy\, we find that\, although the reform increased the re
 presentation of “educated outsiders” (individuals with high education bu
 t limited connections)\, it reduced the share of lower-SES individuals. 
 This decline was driven by a higher representation of the middle class\,
  with little change in the representation of upper class applicants. The
  drop in the representation of lower-SES workers was stronger among appl
 icants from states with more unequal access to schooling as well as in o
 ffices that relied more heavily on connections prior to the reform. Thes
 e findings suggest that\, although using exams could help select more qu
 alified candidates\, these improvements can come with the cost of increa
 sed elitism. This seminar will be hybrid format via MS Teams. Click here
