Fission and friction
Nuclear energy is re-emerging in national decarbonization and energy-security debates, with energy strategy decisions increasingly influenced by public perceptions and societal feedback. This article presents an updated systematic review of research on factors shaping individual attitudes toward nuclear energy in advanced economies (G7 countries, Russia, and China) from 2010 to 2025. Drawing on established theories of nuclear risk perception, it …
Sooner or later? The impact of child education on household consumption
We study the impact of one more year of child’s education on household (non-durable) consumption. We exploit an exogenous shock generated by a university reform in Italy in the early 2000s. We find that families responded in a way that is consistent with education as a production good. The higher child’s education produced household positive, permanent income innovations. Hence, family non-durable consumption increased. Our findings suggest that …
Even more discouraged? The Neet generation at the age of Covid-19
questo articolo studia se e in quale misura il rischio di diventare neet (not in employment, education or training) in italia sia peggiorato o meno durante la prima fase della pandemia da covid-19. l'analisi si basa su un dataset originale ottenuto dall’unione di due indagini campionarie: la rilevazione continua sulle forze lavoro (rcfl) svolta dall’istat e l'indice di qualità istituzionale elaborato da nifo e vecchione (2014). i principali risul…
Ranking high schools using university student performance in Italy
The Eduscopio project is the first attempt to build school performance indicators based on the university performance of high school leavers in Italy. It provides stakeholders (students and their families) with publicly available school performance indicators, and school rankings. A potential weakness of Eduscopio is that it relies on first-year student performance only. In this study, we extend its methodology to include longer-term academic out…
Age at graduation and its reflections in early career prospects
We analyse the association between age at tertiary graduation and outcomes of the first phase of the working career in Italy by using a rich longitudinal dataset built merging EU-SILC survey data with individual administrative records on working careers. Labour market outcomes is observed at the entry and along the 10-year period from graduation. No large differences in weekly and annual earnings and worked weeks emerge across individuals who att…
Delayed Graduation and Overeducation in Italy
Exploiting the human capital versus screening hypothesis frameworks, this paper studies the link between delayed graduation and overeducation, and their effect on wages, by using the ISFOL-Plus data. The evidence lines towards predictions based on the signalling model. However, as to the determinants of overeducation the coefficient of delayed graduation is significant only for delays of 3 years or more and also controlling for the entire set of …
