Ps: Political Science and Politics Reviewers, 2011
In 2011, PS: Political Science and Politics published articles covering a vast range of topics. The journal's commitment to publishing articles on pedagogy and the profession, as well as exemplary topical scholarship on a spectrum of issues, call for an equally broad stable of reviewers. PS cannot publish such diverse work without the outstanding work (and openmindedness) of our peer reviewers. The peer-review process relies on the professionalis…
Status inconsistency, aggressive attitude, and helping behavior1
Analysis of Research Efficiency: Costs and Information Gain
This study provides a method for the examination of research efficiency in terms of costs to the subjects, and information gain for the researcher. The basic problem of maximizing the differentiations among subjects on a dependent variable is equivalent to the problem of maximizing information gain for a given cost in behavioral science research procedures. The distribution resulting from this maximization process, under certain circumstances, al…
Some determinants of aiding under experimentally‐induced stress 1
International Crises: Insights from Behavioral Research
Mathematical Models of Instability and a Theory of Diffusion
The purpose of this study is a systematic examination of Latin American and Sub-Saharan African coups both by descriptive and explanatory means. Two mathematical (probabilistic) models are suggested as descriptions of the occurrence of coups in these regions. The term model refers here to an abstract representation of reality and does not necessarily connote explanation in the form of stated or inferred causality.' As a means of explanation for t…
A theory of revolution
While prior studies have delineated dimensions of conflict behavior within nations (Rummel, 1963, 1966, 1967; Tanter, 1965, 1966) in order to discover the variables most representative of internal conflict, a purpose of the present inquiry is to discover their theoretical significance. A typology of revolution is presented and two possible causes of revolution-changes in economic development and level of education-are examined regarding the exten…
