Using Swedish administrative data and exploiting a natural experiment, we identify the effects of moving from a system with three passing grades to one with five passing grades. Students receiving more informative grades are less likely to graduate from high school, from academic high school tracks, and from STEM and art high school tracks. Affected students are also less likely to enrol in STEM courses at university. The evidence suggests discouragement as a likely mechanism, with students revising their self-belief downward when receiving more informative feedback.} } @article{Few:2008, title = {Dual-{{Scaled Axes}} in {{Graphs}}: {{Are They Ever}} the {{Best Solution}}?}, author = {Few, Stephen}, date = {2008-03}, journaltitle = {Visual Business Intelligence Newsletter}, url = {http://www.perceptualedge.com/articles/visual_business_intelligence/dual-scaled_axes.pdf}, urldate = {2017-09-20} } @book{Frankfurt:2005, title = {On Bullshit}, author = {Frankfurt, Harry G.}, date = {2005}, publisher = {Princeton University Press}, location = {Princeton} } @article{Glazier:2016, title = {Building {{Rapport}} to {{Improve Retention}} and {{Success}} in {{Online Classes}}}, author = {Glazier, Rebecca A.}, date = {2016-10}, journaltitle = {Journal of Political Science Education}, volume = {12}, number = {4}, pages = {437--456}, doi = {10.1080/15512169.2016.1155994} } @book{Healy:2018, title = {Data {{Visualization}}: {{A Practical Introduction}}}, author = {Healy, Kieran}, date = {2018}, publisher = {Princeton University Press}, location = {Princeton}, url = {http://socviz.co/} } @inproceedings{HeerBostock:2010, title = {Crowdsourcing {{Graphical Perception}}: {{Using Mechanical Turk}} to {{Assess Visualization Design}}}, booktitle = {{{ACM Human Factors}} in {{Computing Systems}}}, author = {Heer, Jeffrey and Bostock, Michael}, date = {2010}, pages = {203--12}, doi = {10.1145/1753326.1753357}, url = {http://vis.stanford.edu/papers/crowdsourcing-graphical-perception}, bdsk-url-2 = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1145/1753326.1753357} } @article{HicksHumphriesSlater:2024, title = {{{ChatGPT}} Is Bullshit}, author = {Hicks, Michael Townsen and Humphries, James and Slater, Joe}, date = {2024-06}, journaltitle = {Ethics and Information Technology}, shortjournal = {Ethics Inf.

Applications of these systems have been plagued by persistent inaccuracies in their output; these are often called “AI hallucinations”. We argue that these falsehoods, and the overall activity of large language models, is better understood as bullshit in the sense explored by Frankfurt (On Bullshit, Princeton, 2005): the models are in an important way indifferent to the truth of their outputs. We distinguish two ways in which the models can be said to be bullshitters, and argue that they clearly meet at least one of these definitions. We further argue that describing AI misrepresentations as bullshit is both a more useful and more accurate way of predicting and discussing the behaviour of these systems.}, langid = {american} } @article{IsenbergBezerianosDragicevic:2011, title = {A {{Study}} on {{Dual-Scale Data Charts}}}, author = {Isenberg, Petra and Bezerianos, Anastasia and Dragicevic, Pierre and Fekete, {and} Jean-Daniel}, date = {2011}, journaltitle = {IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics}, volume = {17}, number = {12}, pages = {2469--2478}, doi = {10.1109/tvcg.2011.160}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/tvcg.2011.160} } @article{KrzywinskiCairo:2013, title = {Storytelling}, author = {Krzywinski, Martin and Cairo, Alberto}, date = {2013-08}, journaltitle = {Nature Methods}, volume = {10}, number = {8}, pages = {687--687}, doi = {10.1038/nmeth.2571} } @unpublished{MomchevaTollerud:2015, title = {Software {{Use}} in {{Astronomy}}: {{An Informal Survey}}}, author = {Momcheva, Ivelina and Tollerud, Erik}, date = {2015-07-14}, eprint = {1507.03989}, eprinttype = {arXiv}, eprintclass = {astro-ph}, url = {https://arxiv.org/abs/1507.03989} } @book{Reynolds:2008, title = {Presentation {{Zen}}: {{Simple Ideas}} on {{Presentation Design}} and {{Delivery}}}, author = {Reynolds, Garr}, date = {2008}, edition = {1}, publisher = {New Riders}, location = {Berkeley, California} } @online{Rosenzweig:2023, title = {{{AI-assisted}} Writing Is Close to Becoming as Standard as Spell Check. {{Here}}'s the Catch}, author = {Rosenzweig, Jane}, date = {2023-06-20T10:30:55.547}, url = {https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2023-06-20/google-microsoft-chatgpt-ai-writing-assistants-artificial-intelligence}, urldate = {2024-08-19}, abstract = {AI is on the verge of becoming a standard feature of word processing.
