really important work!.
How credible was the "credibility revolution"? How robust is empirical research in economics? We just replicated a year's worth of the American Economic Review & had economists predict robustness. Here's what we learned.

Taken together, our paper allows us to provide evidence for the following phenomenon:. Same-sex teacher effects are positive in secondary education. “In secondary education” is a boundary condition of the phenomenon. It tells us where we should expect it to hold.

We have studied many contexts, but it is impossible to study all contexts. We therefore see our paper as a good first systematic approach to investigating generalizability of same-sex teacher effects.

Of course, our results may not generalize to other contexts. We have data from 4th grade and 8th grade students. Effects may be different in 3rd and 7th grade. Effects may also be different for subjects not covered in our data.

In secondary education, same-sex teacher effects are generally positive for all outcomes. For test scores, effects even appear constant (and tiny) across all included countries.
