摘要

本文评估了在微观经济学入门课程中采用一系列男女校友演讲者干预措施对学生经济学兴趣的影响。利用学生层面的成绩单数据，我们在以未处理讲座为对照组的模型中估算了演讲者的影响，包括教授和学期年固定效应以及学生层面的协变量。校友演讲者使中级经济学课程的选修率提高了 1.7-2.1 个百分点（9-12%）。学生对同性别的演讲者反应更积极，男性演讲者使男性的选课率提高了 36-38%，女性演讲者使女性的选课率提高了 37-40%，这意味着校友演讲者的影响具有强烈的性别特征。

The impacts of same and opposite gender alumni speakers on interest in economics

This paper evaluates the impact of a series of male and female alumni speaker interventions in introductory microeconomics courses on student interest in economics. Using student-level transcript data, we estimate the effect of speakers in models which use untreated lectures as control groups, including professor and semester-year fixed effects and student-level covariates. Alumni speakers increase intermediate economics course take-up by 1.7–2.1 percentage points (9–12%). Students are more responsive to same-gender speakers, with male speakers increasing men’s course take-up by 36–38% and female speakers increasing women’s course take-up by 37–40% implying that the effect of alumni speakers is strongly gendered.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
