Does anyone know if they ever did a "name study" using white trash names?

I was thinking about this recently during a wokie rant about how black names are hired way less - but in all of the examples that were cited, it was always comparing fairly normal/strong "white names" to the most r-slurred "black" names possible.

I never saw any examples of Cleetus or Bubba being looked or other white-trash names.

Here's an article i found criticizing the way names are chosen for these studies due to the names having a much stronger social status link than racial link.

It goes on to a professor that determined these names that are strongly associated with race are even more strongly associated with poverty and low education so the studies are deeply flawed.

Isnt blackness in general highly correlated with poverty? :hmm:

Within the black community those names are still only used by poor uneducated mothers. Rich educated black women tend not to name their kids DaShawn just like rich white women aren't having any children named khalisi or katniss or snape.

Are you saying social sciences are wrong yet again

Not even going to open the link but the professor sounds r-slurred if he doesn’t think a study design can survive mild multicolinearity between race and class when determining hire rates, especially when this is partially-accounted for since social class and resume content are obviously codependent.

He was criticizing what the studies did, not what they are capable of. Maybe click the link next time

If the study design is fine but the outcome is flawed, you can make the nuanced argument instead of relying on some r-slur still in public education.

here's my uninformed guess what an article I've never read is about

Good job honey. Hopefully your father doesn't viciously beat you again tonight.
