This paper investigates whether the gender composition of ordinal rankings - the observation that a large number of girls (boys) are outperforming me — influences student's attitudes about gender roles.

Very little is known about the experiences of LGBTQI+ students in post-18 education. In this paper we explore the choice of subject, university, and degree outcomes using administrative data from the UK.

One in three women have experienced violence from an intimate partner during their lifetime. In this paper we investigate the spillover effects of intimate partner violence on the human capital of young children that are living in the same household.
