The Department of Economics kicks off this year’s Research Seminar Series with “Understanding Mental Health Differences Between Cisgender and Gender Minority Youth: Evidence from Within-Family Comparisons” presented by Donn Feir, Professor of Economics at the University of Victoria. Using data from the 2021 Canadian Census, Feir has documented substantial differences—ranging from 30 to 40 percentage points—in the prevalence of mental health conditions between cisgender youths and their gender minority counterparts. Please join us on Tuesday, Oct. 28 from 1 to 2:30 p.m. in TH 255!
