    Open AccessL M Greaves, Luke D Oldfield et al.ARTICLEKōtuitui New Zealand Journal of…2020References: 21

    The number of referenda taking place in established democracies has been increasing, but oftentimes the use of referenda is controversial.

    Julia Kim-Cohen, Avshalom Caspi et al.ARTICLEArchives of General Psychiatry2003
