Economics’ framing effect on discrimination is straightforward: it makes the phenomena a measurable gap in individuals’ outcomes. Coupled with a demand for expertise in court in relation to the enactment of new legislation, a rise in the economics education of judges, and a large amount of statistical knowledge flooding the courts, Dr. Chassonery-Zaigouche’s research explores the influence of economics and the impact of economists in employment discrimination disputes.
