This week in research #19

Here's what caught my eye in research over the past week (a really quiet week):

  • Strozza et al. (open access) find that COVID-19 mortality disproportionately affected those of lower socioeconomic status and exacerbated existing social inequalities in Denmark, using Danish population register data
  • Nguyen finds a positive association between temperature and women's exposure to intimate partner violence across 34 developing countries, and that women from rural areas, those from poor households, those having low education, and those living with low-educated partners are particularly vulnerable to intimate partner violence as temperatures increase
The recorded video of my Professorial Lecture, titled Beyond the Buzz: The Sobering Economics of Alcohol, is now available on YouTube. Watch it here if you weren't able to attend in person. Like and subscribe, or whatever.
