In this episode, Professor Ana Balsa is chatting to us about her latest working paper titled "Mental Health Spillovers in Primary Schools". The paper studies the peer effects of students with mental health problems using longitudinal Danish register data. We also touch upon her work on the parenting behavioural change communication intervention "Crianza Positiva" in Uruguay. On top of discussing her papers, we also talk about what it is like to conduct research in different continents and how to publish in top journals.
