Lessons Learned Estimating Impacts of Extreme Weather on District-Level Achievement
Abstract The study highlights limitations of using integrated district-level education and county-level weather event data to estimate effects of weather events on student achievement. Limitations included imprecise geographic linkage between weather events and school district, lack of detailed measures of event intensity, and confounding from pre-existing district differences and post-disaster population displacement. These issues may…

Interpolative Decoding: Exploring the Spectrum of Personality Traits in LLMs
Abstract Recent research has explored using very large language models (LLMs) as proxies for humans in tasks such as simulation, surveys, and studies. While LLMs do not possess a human psychology, they often can emulate human behaviors with sufficiently high fidelity to drive simulations to test human behavioral hypotheses, exhibiting more nuance and range than…
