considered instead of the PGI, the interaction coefficients for both the high school and college regressions move farther away from zero, strengthening the main result of the paper. In general, PGI-by-environment interaction studies that do not correct for measurement error will tend to underestimate the magnitude of the interaction because the interaction term will tend to be attenuated by the measurement error. Note, however, that this conclusion may not hold if other regressors are correlated with the interaction term.
