Immigration policy shocks and infant health
Econ Hum Biol. 2023 Oct 11;51:101309. doi: 10.1016/j.ehb.2023.101309. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis paper evaluates the effect of positive and negative immigration policy shocks on infant health outcomes in the U.S. I examine changes in mean birth weight and the incidence of low birth weight (LBW) at the metropolitan statistical area (MSA) level around two major institutional shocks: The 1986 Immigration Reform Act (IRCA), which favored immigrants, and the increase in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency arrests at the start of 2017 which might have put immigrants at greater risk of apprehension. It uses a...

Air quality and employee performance in teams: Evidence from the NFL
Econ Hum Biol. 2023 Oct 5;51:101310. doi: 10.1016/j.ehb.2023.101310. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEmerging research documents the impact of poor air quality on employee performance in a number of settings, including sport. Unlike other settings, sports teams have limited ability to influence previously scheduled games, making air quality exogenous to unobservable factors affecting game outcomes. We link play-level data from National Football League (NFL) games to data from air quality monitoring stations located near NFL stadiums. Results using data from about 90,000 offensive plays in 900 NFL games indicate that yards ga...

Exposure to wildfires and health outcomes of vulnerable people: Evidence from US data
Econ Hum Biol. 2023 Oct 6;51:101311. doi: 10.1016/j.ehb.2023.101311. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThis paper investigates the causal effect of wildfire exposure on birth outcomes and older people's health outcomes in United States (US). The study focuses on three sub-questions for each health outcome: (1) the causal effect of each of the five largest wildfires on individual health, (2) the causal impact of multiple large wildfires on individual health outcomes, and (3) the causal influence of wildfires larger than different sizes within different distances of counties on health outcomes at the county level. The analysis e...
