A 🧵about "The Gender Gap in Self-Promotion," my paper with @christine_exley that is coming out in the #QJE.

We give subjects a math and science test. First, they guess their score. We then ask them subjective questions about how well they think they did on the test.

I'm writing a book! MARKET RULES will give readers insight into the hidden markets that govern our lives — how they work, how to get what you want from them, and how to make them better. Thanks to the amazing @WordNerdMargo for helping the book find a home at @lbsparkbooks.

Publishers Marketplace Deal Report that reads: "Wharton economist Judd B. Kessler's MARKET RULES, illuminating the hidden markets that govern our everyday lives—from when we get a good parking spot, to where our kids go to school, to whether we can procure a hospital bed when we need one—and teaching us how to get more of what we want as we agitate for better market design in the first place, to Talia Krohn at Little, Brown Spark, at auction, by Margo Beth Fleming at Brockman (NA)."

Sending support to all the women in economics feeling unsafe and unsupported. We need to do better. I hope this will be the beginning of a much needed accountability process.
