Unpacking Public Perceptions of Terrorism
The study explores terrorism threat perceptions, focusing on the American public’s views of conventional and cyber-terrorism methods. Based on a national survey data, we find that when asked about the likelihood and the extent of threat associated with each type of terror method, citizens make clear and significant distinctions. Furthermore, these distinctions translate to variations in counter-terrorism policy preferences. Our analyses reveal th…
Can Hierarchy Dodge Bullets? Examining Blame Attribution in Military Contracting
The increased outsourcing of national security endeavors to private military companies (PMCs) raises questions concerning public evaluations of their performance and the extent to which government officials are held accountable. We use a survey experiment to test public blame attribution associated with a failed military operation that was conducted by either regular or private military personnel. Our findings suggest that there are multiple medi…

Security Versus Liberty in the Context of Counterterrorism
A critical question in counterterrorism studies concerns the extent to which governments adequately balance the continual provision of individual rights and freedoms with the appropriate level of national security when faced with a terrorist attack. We experimentally assess this tradeoff utilizing a 2 × 2 × 2 between-groups factorial design, manipulating (a) the extent of terror-related threats, (b) the level of invasiveness of subsequent counter…
Examining the Distinct Effects of Emotive Triggers on Public Reactions to International Terrorism
In recent years, a growing body of research has set out to examine the role that emotions play in shaping political attitudes and behaviors regarding terrorism. However, one major issue that is generally overlooked is whether the thematic relevance of emotive triggers leads to differential effects on people's reactions to international terrorism. Specifically, does anger—regardless of its source—tend to drive people towards supporting an aggressi…
The Emotional Calculus of Foreign Policy Decisions
For the past five decades, students of foreign policy analysis and foreign policy decision making have labored to develop theories that explain international behavior. Focusing on the individual as the unit of analysis, these studies have proceeded under the assumption that the political decision maker is the driving force behind the perception, interpretation, evaluation, and response to international political events (Snyder, Bruck, and Sapin 2…
A Foot in the Door
A between-groups experimental design tests the hypothesis that PACs have an advantage over constituents in gaining access to members of the U.S. House of Representatives. Sixty-nine congressional staffers participated in an exercise designed to simulate the process by which scheduling decisions are made. The study was conducted in Washington, DC, in the fall of 1996. Analysis of variance reveals a significant constituency main effect, but no sign…
The Cognitive Calculus of Foreign Policy Decision Making
The cognitive calculus theory of foreign policy decision making is an attempt to bridge the gap between two research orientations in the international relations literature: outcome validity and process validity. The cognitive calculus theory models the mental calculations of foreign policy decision making with the premise that an individual conducts the decision-making process and the model should therefore represent his or her capabilities. An e…
Information inconsistency and the cognitive algebra of foreign policy decision making
This paper explores a special feature of the information complexity that underlies foreign policy decision making, i.e., inconsistency in information. We use the actor and action images to categorize types of inconsistency. The consequences of inconsistency for process and outcome are analyzed within the framework of a cognitive algebra model. Finally, we demonstrate the implications of the model in an experimental study. Our findings show that n…
Cultural Similarity, Foreign Policy Actions, and Regime Perception
This study examines previous explanations of democratic peace in light of sociocultural factors and foreign policy actions that influence public perceptions of another country. Two experiments assessed the effects of relevant sociocultural and foreign policy action cues on perception of the regime type of a target nation and on public approval of the use of force. The findings suggest that sociocultural cues affect regime perception. Moreover, pe…
Decisionmaking on War and Peace
The Poliheuristic Theory of Foreign Policy Decisionmaking
The Effect of Dynamic and Static Choice Sets on Political Decision Making
Previous studies of political decision making have used only "static" choice sets, where alternatives are "fixed" and area prioriknown to the decision maker. We assess the effect of adynamicchoice set (new alternatives appear during the decision process) on strategy selection and choice in international politics. We suggest that decision makers use a mixture of decision strategies when making decisions in a two-stage process consisting of an init…

The political incentive explanation of “democratic peace”
In this paper, we summarize a series of experimental studies that show that democracies don't fight each other because their leaders have very few political incentives to do so. The use of force against other democracies is perceived by the public and by leaders of democratic states as a failure of foreign policy. The reliance of democratic leaders on public support decreases therefore the likelihood of the use of force against other democracies
Why Don't Democracies Fight Each Other
Building upon the work of Maoz and Russett, Bueno de Mesquita and Lalman, and Morgan and Campbell, the authors evaluate the “democratic peace” phenomenon in an experimental setting. They first introduce the “political incentive” explanation of why democracies don't fight each other in the context of the diversionary theory of war, and then report results based on experiments with three groups of subjects: American students, nonstudent adults, and…
"Teachers' and School Children's Stereotypic Perception of "The Child of Divorce
The main purpose of the present study was to investigate how teachers’ and schoolmates’ judgments of a child’s academic, emotional, and social functioning are influenced by the knowledge that his or her parents are divorced. One hundred four teachers and 120 seventh- and eighth-grade students were shown the same film of a child engaging in a variety of activities. The target child was introduced as either a boy or a girl and as living either with…

Perceived Saliency of Classroom Misconducts
In order to investigate the saliency of disruptive activities relative to other lesson occurences, high school students were asked to recall a script describing the activities of a regular class period. The findings revealed a relative high retention rate of disruptive activities performed by students, as well as increased recall of teacher reactions to these activities in comparison with lesson related behaviors. The degree of retention of a sta…
