I'm proud of this one: I examine the incentives of military officers at the onset of civil war to remain loyal, side with the rebels, or resign (thread) Rebel, Remain, or Resign? Military Elites’ Decision-Making at the Onset of the American Civil War journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/00…

Looking forward to my first EPSA next week! I’ll be presenting on a great panel on the Political Economy of Conflict and discussing some fascinating papers on Coups and Defections. Looking forward to Scotland!

Data collection is great way to get students involved in research. It doesn’t require previous experience, lets them get a peak at a part of the process they are unlikely to see otherwise, and has tangible results. For profs, it can help get a big project off the ground.

Now on FirstView ft. Geoffrey Wallace and @ekgade "We envision Data Labs as a “productive learning” approach in which students are taught about data collection through collaborative engagement in the production of social science knowledge." cup.org/41RtovB

Academic journals have responded to the replicability crisis by promoting open science, including through awarding badges, for example for providing open access to data. How well do these badges work? That’s what we tried to find out! doi.org/10.1177/095679… 🧵1/
