Research on Population Economics
Abstract
Again the serendipity of negative events: If my department head Charles Sandage had not tossed me out of the Department of Advertising at the University of Illinois, I would not have been free to wind down my studies of advertising and move on to other topics. After he had done so and I had moved to the College of Commerce, I could comfortably choose to work on whatever I liked.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
