I'm pleased to see our paper introducing the Democratic Erosion Event Dataset (DEED), an events-based dataset on democratic erosion, finally out in Nature Scientific Data. In our data, we distinguish between resistance, precursors, symptoms, and destabilizing events www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Excited to share our new paper in @thejop.bsky.social with @krausewe.bsky.social! Parties polling just below an electoral threshold are far less likely to clear it: a self-fulfilling prophecy that diminishes when polls communicate uncertainty. 🗳️📊

Published! In this paper, we evaluate how criminal violence in Latin America affects political attitudes among Latinos in the United States. @angelaxocampo.bsky.social and I bring together research from different fields to show the relevance of origin-country politics in Latino public opinion.
Our recent research -- Even among the 92%, It’s Complicated: Examining Black Women Voters’ Emotions and Evaluations of Kamala Harris in the 2024 Election---- examines Black women’s perspectives during the 2024 election cycle through focus groups with politically engaged Black women.

Happy to launch monkscale.com — the home for the Monk Skin Tone Scale. A quick hub for information about the MST, research using the MST, studies about the MST, clinical and tech deployments of the MST, news coverage, and standards adoption across the FDA, ISO, EU AI Act, etc.

Partisanship is a useful decision-making heuristic. It's also a source for camaraderie among people of color. With @efrenpolipsy.bsky.social and team, we find PoC's sense of interdependence with each other shifts over time to fit their partisanship.

Do opinion polls shape election results?
Using both cross-national data and a survey experiment, the answer we find is yes - though it depends on how we communicate polling results.
