- gwern 12y agoYeah, I've learned to not expect anything good of any study which is about gap-busting. The topic draws terrible studies like flies. (Seriously, it's kind of boggling going back and looking. The entire study rests on the exact comparability of the two sets of tests allowing claims of teacher bias by gender to then give later causal effects... and not only can they not establish the comparability in any remotely rigorous way, they don't even tell you what one set really is!)
