🚨NEW PAPER 🚨 Are police more right-wing and biased against marginalized groups than the general public? If so, why? My new article in @PNASNews w/ Reny, Newman, and Sears provides some answers. 🧵1/n

My latest paper out in AJS! I argue that Americans' immigration attitudes are shaped not just by cultural or economic considerations, but by perceptions of political (mis)alignment. That is, there is a logic of conditional inclusiveness that informs immigration attitudes. A 🧵

An important new working paper, well worth close study. Note the below findings align closely with our research on the strong political influence of opposition to antiracism in the contemporary U.S. (a construct we found predicts Trump support, for example, better than self-reported political ideology): x.com/RachelWetts/st…

For Democrats, the biggest gains from moving to the middle came on social/cultural issues like affirmative action (+4.5pp) and LGBTQ issues—where the party's standard positions are furthest from the median voter.

1/ Will voters participate in the primary of a party they oppose to prevent the nomination of a candidate they fear? In a new paper in AJPS with @HayleyCohen, we study crossover voting using surveys and a large field experiment (N=83,902) in the 2024 New Hampshire Republican presidential primary. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/aj…

When more people can meet these conditions, more people can participate in cultural life. Changes in cultural production partly reflect how widely societies make learning and creative work possible: cultural production can serve as an indirect indicator of human development.

Conditionally accepted at the APSR (w/ @scottclifford & @patrickpliu): Why does political information so often change beliefs but NOT attitudes? We highlight the role of belief relevance, or the extent to which beliefs bear on attitudes.

The sky is not falling; high-quality platforms (Prolific, Verasight, CR Connect) have low rates of apparent bots. But also not zero; vigilance is very much needed!

When you collect data online, are the results from humans or AI? In a project led by Booth PhD student Grace Zhang, we estimate the prevalence of AI agents on commonly used survey platforms: osf.io/preprints/psya… 🧵

Identity appeals have strong effects on choosing a candidate, even rivalling those of our policy appeals. The effects are driven by appeals that emphasize out-group conflict rather than in-group solidarity journals.uchicago.edu/doi/abs/10.108…

The unemployment rate for white workers hasn't budged, and is actually a little lower than it was a year ago. The move higher in the headline unemployment rate is being borne by Black, Hispanic, Asian workers

The real sign of AI writing is not superficial stuff like “It’s not X—it’s Y”. It’s the hollowness. Polished writing but relatively mundane ideas. The giveaway is that you’re less impressed when you read it the second time. With good writing, it should be the other way around. I’m not sure this is inherently about AI. It’s more about the fact that people tend to turn to AI when they don’t have much to say. Reading text that has the syntactic smell of AI is mildly annoying, but when I read hollow writing I feel the writer is wasting my time, which is much more frustrating. So don’t do it. People are unlikely to respond to your email or subscribe to your newsletter or whatever you’re trying to get them to do. And they’ll probably remember that you betrayed their trust as a reader.

Who votes based on the economy? My (preliminary) results w/ Reny, Dyck and Johnson suggest that while economic considerations matter less for White Democrats over time, it remains a key factor for Latino independents, who we argue are an understudied yet crucial electoral group.
