Pinpointing persistence in computer science pipelines
Background and Context U.S. demand for computer science (CS) talent remains high, yet participation in CS education and jobs is uneven by gender and race/ethnicity. While traditional CS pathways dominate research on persistence, alternative pathways such as coding bootcamps and apprenticeship programs may address workforce demand and equity gaps. Yet, little is known about who persists in these pathways.Objectives This study investigates persiste…
Conceptualizing alternative training and education in computer science
Background and Context STEM occupations are growing rapidly and offer economic benefits, yet underrepresentation persists among women, racial and ethnic minorities, and low-income individuals. Coding bootcamps have emerged as an alternative education option that may mitigate these disparities, providing intensive, skill-focused training aligned with local labor market needs. Understanding the effectiveness of these coding bootcamps in broadening …
Can Neighborhood Redevelopment Initiatives Improve Educational Outcomes? Novel Evidence From the Choice Neighborhood Initiative
Mixed-income initiatives provide critical investments in neighborhoods, including investments to improve schools, and provide case management and family support services to low-income families. The Choice Neighborhoods Initiative (CNI) is one of the largest and most comprehensive mixed-income neighborhood redevelopment initiatives to date; however, research has yet to examine the CNI’s effect on educational outcomes. We applied a robust differenc…
Early Impact of Teacher Leaders in a Networked Improvement Community on Middle School Mathematics Performance
Networked improvement communities (NICs) offer an approach for administrators, researchers, content experts, and teachers to co-develop, test, and spread instructional improvements. This study analyzed the effect of teachers’ participation in a NIC on growth in their students’ mathematics achievement in comparison to teachers in the same district who received the same mathematics professional learning but did not participate in the NIC activities…
Does School Academic Context Moderate the Relationship between Student Mobility and Academic Performance? Longitudinal Evidence from Missouri
Student mobility is highly prevalent in the U.S. and often has negative impacts on students’ academic performance. Within-year mobility may be especially disruptive; however, research on its impacts is limited. Additionally, less is known about how impacts may vary across school academic and geographic contexts. This study leverages longitudinal student-level data collected over nine years across five counties to investigate how within-year schoo…
Can Certificate Programs Solve the Skills and Spatial Mismatch Problem? Job Portability and Residential Mobility in a Coding and Apprenticeship Program
Nondegree certificate programs that are free, short, and located in urban areas may pose implications for the skills and spatial match between urban job-seekers and employers. Leveraging a large-scale survey of applicants to a unique technology certificate and apprenticeship program, we apply machine-learning generated propensity score weights, finding that apprenticeship completers were more likely to see a significant reduction in the distance …
Choice and Opportunity
Mixed-income development initiatives target distressed public housing for redevelopment and provide support to low-income families. These initiatives involve an involuntary move for families living in the sites targeted for redevelopment. The objectives of this study were to examine housing relocation, neighborhood change, and family well-being among families (n = 383) affected by the South City Choice Neighborhoods Initiative (CNI) in Memphis, T…
Who Transfers and Where Do They Go? Identifying Risk Factors Across Student, School, and Neighborhood Characteristics
Research demonstrates that student mobility, or students transferring schools, significantly affects student academic outcomes, making it a critical concern for policymakers and practitioners. Within-school-year transfers, in particular, often reflect sudden, unexpected circumstances. However, research on the prevalence, risk factors, and patterns of student mobility remains limited. This study leverages an ecological framework to identify studen…
Moving from Hope to Choice
Despite the potential benefits, research has yet to synthesize the impact of mixed-income initiatives on educational opportunities for families. Moreover, the policy intentions of mixed-income initiatives, particularly concerning children's educational opportunities, remain largely untested and lack theoretical and conceptual foregrounding. To fill these knowledge gaps, we critically review the Housing Opportunities for People Everywhere and Choi…
From Labor Market Dualization to Inclusive Growth? Trade Unions and the Politics of Labor Market Reform in South Korea
The landslide victory of the center-left Moon Jae-In in the 2017 presidential election opened a window of opportunity for progressive reform in South Korea. Elected on a platform of social inclusion and fairness and with support from organized labor, the Moon Jae-In government (2017-22) made at first considerable progress in advancing inclusive labor market reform and an alternative growth model against opposition from business, but the administr…
A place-based spatial analysis of racial inequities in overdose in St. Louis County Missouri, United States
These findings suggest that places of worship, the hospitality industry, and housing authorities may be physical features of the environment that reflect social conditions that are conducive to overdose. The scaling up of harm reduction strategies could be enhanced by targeting places where features are co-located
The Impacts of the Child Tax Credit on Financial Resilience and the Use of High-Cost Financial Resources
Making the Case
Leveraging novel case management data, we present the first comprehensive investigation into the role of case management services in housing relocation and return decisions within the framework of the Choice Neighborhoods Initiative (CNI), the current place-based public housing revitalization program. Our study employs multinomial logistic (MNL) regression models to demonstrate that a higher level of involvement in case management services is cor…
The Effect of Social Pension on Material Hardship among Older Adults in Korea
The goal of this study was to examine the effect of a social pension programme for older adults in South Korea, Basic Pension Scheme (BPS) on material hardship and subjective well-being. We apply a regression discontinuity design (RDD) to estimate the effect of the BPS on the material hardship and life satisfaction of older people between the ages of sixty-one and sixty-eight. Data come from Korea Welfare Panel Study (KOWEPS) wave 12 survey (2017…
Household Spending Patterns and Hardships during Covid-19
Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Housing Instability During the Covid-19 Pandemic
Perceptions of School Quality and Student Learning During the Pandemic
Given the inequitable distribution of resources across school, neighborhood, and home contexts in the United States, lower resourced students may have had fewer opportunities to learn during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, which may have caused previous disadvantages to accumulate during the pandemic. Nevertheless, research has yet to comprehensively explore how school, neighborhood, and home contexts— together—relate to perceptions of sch…

Are Foreclosure Spillover Effects Universal? Variation Over Space and Time
Government intervention in the housing market in response to the 2007–2010 mortgage crisis was driven in part by research showing that foreclosures lower neighboring housing values and thus increase neighbors’ risk of foreclosure. Researchers have consistently identified a negative spillover effect of foreclosures on nearby housing values, but the magnitude of the effect varies widely across studies. Although this variation is due, in part, to di…
How Did School Meal Access Change during the Covid-19 Pandemic? A Two-Step Floating Catchment Area Analysis of a Large Metropolitan Area
SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) resulted in school closures and contingencies across the U.S. that limited access to school meals for students. While some schools attempted to provide alternative meal access points where students or parents could pick up meals, many students-especially those in low-income households-lacked adequate transportation to these access points. Thus, physical proximity to meal access points was particularly important during the pa…
Do Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Savings and Job Loss during Covid-19 Explain Disparities in Housing Hardships? A Moderated Mediation Analysis
Despite the array of public programs offered to help households mitigate the economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, many still needed to rely on savings, credit, or other assets to make ends meet. This reality may exacerbate existing social and economic inequities because racial and ethnic minorities often have lower access to assets and credit than white households. We use longitudinal national survey data to explore the extent to which diff…
