🚨 What happens with voters when politicians use simpler language?
New @thejop.bsky.social paper with @rsenninger.bsky.social: simple language changes not just what citizens understand, but who they think politicians are.

Incredibly happy and relieved that our special issue Asset Struggles co-edited with @theobourgeron.bsky.social is now accepted for publication at NPE!
More on the issue soon. For now: a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has been involved in this over the past few years – you are the best!
Remember that recent paper claiming to show that "ideological bias" determined the results obtained by immigration policy research teams?
A careful, open-code reanalysis by @kauspurg.bsky.social & Josef Brüderl finds that the result arises from a coding error. —> doi.org/10.31222/osf...
Interesting new study on changes in ideological constraint by Anna-Luise Schönheit: link.springer.com/article/10.1... Even amidst raging culture wars, political attitudes largely remain as incoherent as ever (outside smaller groups of ideologues). Converse confirmed! @nathankalmoe.bsky.social
This is an extremely relevant and interesting study that shows that behavioral intentions measured in survey experiments should not be mistaken for a measure of actual behavior. And it is a nice example of studies that replicate themselves by using different research designs!
The best concept Tolkien ever came up with was “Dragon sickness,” the idea that extreme personal wealth and greed literally drove you mad.
Bitte nicht korrigieren oder erklären, ich habe mich null informiert und es interessiert mich auch nicht.
