• Identification of binary choice models with social interactions (2007, methodology): “We focus on the analysis of classroom peer group effects: a question addressed by Angrist and Lang (2002), Boozer and Cacciola (2001), Hanushek et al. (2003) and Hoxby (2000a, b) among others.”
• Peer Effects in European Primary Schools: Evidence from Pirls (2006, unknown): “We argue that classes within schools are in fact formed more or less randomly with respect to family background characteristics (other than immigrant status).”
• Assumptions of Value-Added Models for Estimating School Effects (2009, background): “The literature on peer effects and organizational theory suggests this may be an implausible assumption (Angrist & Lang, 2004; Barr & Dreeben, 1983; Boozer & Cacciola, 2001; Hoxby & Weingarth, 2006).”
