School choice increases racial segregation even when parents do not care about race.
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
August 2022
Article Synopsis
- This research explores how school choice can lead to increased school segregation, even when parents may not consider race, due to differing preferences between Black and White parents for certain school qualities.
- These differences in preferences are driven by social status motivations, where Black parents are more likely to seek schools that enhance their children's perceived social standing.
- Simulations indicate that increased school choice availability correlates with greater segregation, affecting over half a million children, but if preferences were more aligned between Black and White parents, school choice could actually lessen segregation.
Body camera footage leads to lower judgments of intent than dash camera footage.

Police departments use body-worn cameras (body cams) and dashboard cameras (dash cams) to monitor the activity of police officers in the field. Video from these cameras informs review of police conduct in disputed circumstances, often with the goal of determining an officer's intent. Eight experiments ( = 2,119) reveal that body cam video of an incident results in lower observer judgments of intentionality than dash cam video of the same incident, an effect documented with both scripted videos and real police videos.
