California whole foods could never and we're all worse off for it ugh
Putting aside my warriors hate to remember another great moment in acknowledgements history
Useful to know, thank you!
Super interesting work! Will try to read in full, but did you administer any experiments? Curious if professionals differ in behavior vs non pros (maybe less reactive to treatments) across different example experiments, that’d speak a lot to whether inferences are getting distorted
Our conclusion is that survey professionalism is widespread on online panels, but these do not, by and large, distort inferences, making us cautiously optimistic about research using these online samples!
ok chat now make the building look a bit more like silsby hall
One reaction: wish core data source asked immigration views & not just AfD support so we had well-identified fx for both outcomes (theory here argues for this specific pattern, but reasons to expect both to move + only suggestive checks rule out imm fx - unsure why these weren't asked in main panel)
AfD specifically messages around public pool diversity/threat ➡️ fits nicely w/Hopkins 2010 (natl rhetoric can amplify local fx).
Useful evidence for racial threat vs. contact theory too - not just repeated but prolonged outgroup exposure, but w/o elements like cooperative contact, backlash
Very creative & well-done new @thejop.bsky.social: 🇩🇪 far-right support ⬆️ among people living near outdoor swimming pools when you enter summer months (when these pools become popular) -- but only in areas that have more immigrants.

Thanks for sharing! Wasn’t sure if/where it was going viral here too 😂
In recently released CES 2024 data, looking at presidential vote choice... Ages 18-21: 58% Harris, 38% Trump Ages 22-29: 58% Harris, 38% Trump Zero difference. Not directly comparable (cited poll is April, CES data from late 2024) but unlikely so much has changed since then.
Good update with a different data point from @agadjanian.bsky.social
Congrats! Looking forward to reading. Is this more about nationwide trends around the time the protests take place, or proximity to protests?
Biennial update on racial resentment trends in the CES: after a white Dems shift *away* from racially liberal trajectory in 2022, we're back in that direction in 2024.
Hope to see more of these approaches in the spirit of implicit mediation analysis (journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10....)

Interesting new JEPS on POC solidarity building. Besides substantive contribution, another example of getting creative with experiments to learn about mechanisms (vs. conventional mediation analysis-only).
On a very different topic, here's another good example along these methodological lines
Kylie Jenner get ready to learn ligue 1 relegation battle buddy
One of these days it’ll catch on inshallah
Interesting new paper on this topic (www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/...) -- misinfo itself has more direct, widespread consequences, but factual beliefs again seem to be outside of the equation
I had the same reaction re RCV and when I told everyone at my Conclave watch party nobody cared 😭
Two good places to donate for supporting LA wildfire relief efforts:
1. Eaton Fire Relief and Recovery Fund (from Pasadena Community Foundation) pasadenacf.org/supporting-o...
2. Immigrant Fire Relief Fund (from National Day Laborer Organizing Network) secure.actblue.com/donate/lafir...
APSR will start inviting replications for a random subset of accepted papers. I really like this as well as the constructive tone around it 👏 (from the latest Notes from the Editors)

Misperceptions but not attitudes/behaviors being moveable is no surprise--imo one of the most well-replicated patterns in polisci work.
Puzzle remains: do factual beliefs really not affect attitudes/behaviors? Or are we not looking at the right beliefs? Some evidence on latter tinyurl.com/py4tu3d5
- Two cites in this paragraph don't contain experimental evidence.
- The review piece doesn't seem to either and even mentions need for more causal evidence.
- Loomba et al. is an RCT but at least 2 other studies find contrasting results.
Interesting perspectives. Feels like some disconnect from standard polisci accounts (e.g. effects of misinfo/fact-checks often have limited scope, but that doesn't mean misinfo is overall inconsequential www.pnas.org/doi/abs/10.1...).
Was also curious about this part and dug around on the cites...

Friends don't let friends capture operational ideology via self-described ideological ratings, a series
-Among those who ID as Black, also choosing Hisp goes from 5.9% in old format to 4.4% in new one--not significantly diff.
-Among those who ID as Hisp, also choosing Black goes from 5% to 3.4%, which is sig.
My interpretation: IDs are reprioritized for some, but Black + Hisp IDs are far from erased.
