What conclusion do you draw from the "blue" names? Says to me that there are not many Orthodox Jews in America and they only live in a few places, but not much about polarization.

Yeah, I guess I was thinking of it as if 1 is yes, trouble; if 1 is no, that's what I expect; if 1 is the complicated option, then it should be explained elsewhere (though should does not always mean is)

It could extend to those kinds of risks since we think it's related to risk seeking in losses, but most of what we study are things like gambling and lottery tickets which tend to be more negative. I'd also be looking for more work on why we saw so many new businesses during the pandemic.

How did changing the riskiness of a choice impact the gender gap in willingness to ask? My new paper in MS with Alex Willén finds gender gaps widen, which benefits men more. The gap is likely driven by gender differences in beliefs.
