Teenage girls do worse in their education, careers and social lives when they have more high-achieving boys in their classes, according to a new study by two Cornell economists. They report that girls with high-achieving male peers (as in co-ed schools):
1. Seem to have lower self-confidence and are more engaged in risky behavior.
2. Become less self-confident about their own ability in traditionally male-dominated fields.
3. Are more likely to complete vocational or associate degrees, rather than bachelor’s degrees.
Summary: Girls are more likely to get bachelor’s degrees and get better grades in school if they are exposed to high-achieving female peers.
