@philipncohen would this not just creat a larger administration: “In this spirit, we call for a thorough reassessment of administrative encroachment”

Seems like people at a university wrote this.

@jonathanhorowi1 @philipncohen plus wasn’t he attacking family members of the president of MIT just the other day?

@jonathanhorowi1 I just turned in a 10k word one for a 9k word article.

Dear editors. Now is a great time to send me a decision.

@jonathanhorowi1 I have had to do this before too.

@dustinstoltz I don’t do the point and click part. A large part on why I stick with it is because I work with economists who use it religiously

@jonathanhorowi1 I use stata for most things until I want to make graphs when I turn to R

@philipncohen I get things like crack baby, perp walk, and HIV. Fun year to be born.

The working paper version of our forthcoming Sociological Science article is now up. Refugees achieved greater English proficiency than economic migrants during the Ellis Island era, according to detailed linguistic measures from a large collection of oral histories www.nber.org/papers/w31730

@JaclynSWong I like the meditative part.

@jonathanhorowi1 one of the things I like is that it lets me sit back and reflect on who I’m engaging with in my paper.

There are people who use citation software, but I do it by hand and really like it. Are there really any advantages to the software?

I have an invite code to blue sky if anyone wants it.

@ttkeskinturk @philipncohen agreed! I guess I was hoping for better from soc.

2023-09-06

@ttkeskinturk @philipncohen that could be. The qual in economics also doesn’t pass the sniff test. Seems anachronistic to the 70s when they had a few qual scholars. The definition is going to matter a lot here it seems.

2023-09-06

@philipncohen @ttkeskinturk and on the theoretical side it seems that there’s an anti empirical side that would justify the low median

2023-09-06

@philipncohen @ttkeskinturk the chart says qual and theoretical. That’s different than a quant and qual comparison.

I'm in! @petercatron.bsky.social I really wish we could all converge in one spot, though.

2023-08-24

@jimiadams that could be. In our case we did have a reviewer and the editor gave us a conditional accept with the conditions that we follow what the reviewer said. Granted had we been rejected, I’d probably be saying the journal is doomed.

From submission to acceptance, Sociological Science is a very well run journal.
