Framing Effects in Informal Communication Networks and the Problem of Embeddedness
Framing is a commonly recommended strategy for building consensus on issues such as climate change and the pandemic response. These recommendations stem from research identifying potent messages across audiences and domains. Framing research, dominated by survey experiments, often overlooks crucial social context, however, limiting direct applicability of findings. This disconnect motivates our central question: How effective are framing strategi…

Revised estimates of racial and ethnic disparities in rooftop photovoltaic deployment in the United States

Nimbys and partisans: How Material Interests and Partisanship Shape Public Response to Shale Gas Development
The influence of material interests and partisanship on local residents' responses to proposed shale gas development (SGD) is examined. Complementing existing research on attitudes toward SGD, public response is conceptualized and measured as a political behavior. A novel research design combines information on participation in town board hearings with administrative data from three sources: county tax assessment rolls, a database of gas leases, …
Not in Your Backyard! Organizational Structure, Partisanship, and the Mobilization of Nonbeneficiary Constituents against 'Fracking' in Illinois, 2013-2014
In the interest of enlarging their constituencies, social movements often broaden mobilization efforts beyond the directly aggrieved, beneficiary populations. The authors examine this process through an analysis of a movement against unconventional oil and gas development (UOGD or 'fracking') in Illinois. Using data on more than 37,000 public comments submitted during a regulatory review of fracking, the authors examine the composition of the ant…

A Member Saved Is a Member Earned? The Recruitment-Retention Trade-Off and Organizational Strategies for Membership Growth
A long line of research documents the essential role of social networks in mediating the recruitment and retention of members in organizations. But organizations also comprise a primary context where people form social ties. We investigate how the network structure an organization creates among its members influences its ability to grow and reproduce. In particular, we propose that two dimensions of organizational strategy influence affiliation d…
Whose Backyard and What's at Issue? Spatial and Ideological Dynamics of Local Opposition to Fracking in New York State, 2010 to 2013
What drives local decisions to prohibit industrial land uses? This study examines the passage of municipal ordinances prohibiting gas development using hydraulic fracturing ("fracking") in New York State. I argue that local action against fracking depended on multiple conceptions of the shale gas industry. Matching these alternative conceptions with prevailing spatial models of public response to industrial land uses-"not in my backyard," "not in…
The Power of Integration: Affiliation and Cohesion in a Diverse Elite Network
Amuch-theorized but seldom-tested theory is that elites achieve cohesion via the social network they form through their affiliations with local clubs, religious institutions, civic groups, and other voluntary associations. But few scholars have considered how increasing diversity with respect to elites' gender, race, and social class may undermine such cohesion. We use primary data from interviews with 312 elites in a large Midwestern city to con…
