This is my starting five plus a very chaotic bench of papers that I actually go back to, not the ones I pretend to have finished on my Kindle. Heavy on stats, a little econ, a dash of psych, and at least one thing that makes me feel like I’m back in a Boston coffee shop trying to look smart. Think of this as my personal playbook: these are the PDFs I re-open the way some people re-watch Game 7 highlights (guilty on both counts). I tossed in one tiny number for each so you know I really did read past the abstract.
