ECON 151 Labor Economics
Short project Overview and Waypoints
The final deliverable for this short project is no more than two pages of written text in paragraphs that:
- explains a specific empirical question
- describes data you will use to answer this question
- discusses what your analysis finds , and maybe alsowhat it set out to find You can and probably should include additional pages with a figure or table, references ifappropriate, and any appendices.One figure or tableis required.The first paragraph should tell a brief version of your entire story outlined above in items 1, 2, and 3.
Below are specific instructions for the three deliverables that we need from you during the term: I. The research question in the form of three sentencesA. The question you seek to answer B.C. The data you will examine to answer itWhat you think you will find II. A revised version of the research question if appropriate, otherwise resubmit the same III. The final short project You should consult the suggested format below bCourses andthe rubric, which will be visible on
COLLABORATION POLICY Students can work together in groups of up to 5. Larger groups need to contact Prof. Edwards. Groups are encouraged to collaborate on themust submit their own, original research topic and final writeup. Research questions can bedata setand onprogramming. But each student similar across students, but they cannot be the same. If they are the same, each student involved will receive a provisional zero until they can correct this mistake.

1 Topic statement with 3 sentences
Sentence 1 states the question youre seeking to answer Sentence 2 describes the data youre going to analyze: their source and natureSentence 3 states the answer to the question thatyou expect to find
Here is an example:
- Is there a wage premium earned bybut who have at least one foreign-born parent, above and beyond what their education second-generationimmigrants , who are native born implies?
- To assess these questions, I will examine data on earnings, education, demographics,and nativity and parents nativity in the 2022 March CPS (the ASEC).
- I expect to find that second-generation immigrants do not earn more than other native born workers, after adjusting for education. It is their higher levels of education onaverage that distinguishes them as unique.
Not sure how to start? You could write about: Something that you see in a data set that you like. You could examine a dataset we haveseen already in ECON 151, or you could consult theWooldridge datasets. A concept or relationship you learned in another Economics class, and what you found compelling or questionable about it A recent change in law in the city or country you are from, and how an economist might frame or analyze the issue One of theoffer a position and defend it, or think of a new question related to the topicIGM Expert Panel Statements; use your ownwords to explain the prompt, Topics you might find in recentNBER working papers(start with the abstracts) and write about ones you found interesting.

3 Final short project
On no more thantwo pages,state your research question,describe the data you found to answer the question, and discuss your initial expectations and your final results.
Write in any style you like, as long as it gets the job donein a pageand is clear and legible. One obvious format you could choose for this one-page writeup is: Paragraph 1neatly summarizes everything that follows.You can write it like an abstract. Paragraph set Astates the question you identifiedand motivates why it is an interesting question. Then it briefly explains the data set you found, and it states your initial hypothesisabout the answer to the research question.
Paragraph set Bdescribes the data set you found ingreater detail. This can be a formal, dry explanation of where the data came from, what variables they measured, maybe how the datawere collected in the first place if you find that interesting, and so on.
Paragraph set Ccould also write a separate paragraph before this that motivates the regression model you use.)motivates the regression(s) you ranand reveals the regression results. (You Explain what the results reveal and what they do not or cannot reveal. Discuss causality if youlike. Perhaps compare what you can do to what you would ideally do if you could run an experiment. Paragraph set Dguesses were correct or not. Here, you should draw some careful conclusions about what youreturns to the original hypothesisyou laid out and assesses whether your found. What are the policy implications, if any, of your results? And like all good scientists, call for more research on the matter! Last paragraphnext. can include a sentence or two in summary,and it can state what you might do
Pages 3+ can include a table, a figure, some citations as needed, and appendix material. This is not a full term paper; please keep these to a bare minimum. Do not ask to put 10 tables andfigures into this document.
DO NOT conduct a vast literature review and quoteeveryone. Just identify a question, get some data to answer it, and write about what your results imply. Profit.
