Centralization and Subnational Capacity
Vast disparities between and within American states’ responses to the COVID-19 pandemic have evoked renewed attention to whether greater centralization might enhance investments in subnational capacity and remedy subnational inequalities or instead erode subnational organizational capacity. Developments in American public education (1997–2015) offer perspective on this puzzle, which we examine by applying interrupted time series analysis to a nov…
Divergent Electoral Policies
Why have some states adopted policies expanding ballot access while others have restricted access to the ballot? Since the 1990s, some states have been adopting policies restricting access to the ballot such as requiring identification. At the same time, states have been adopting a variety of registration reforms that lower the barriers to registration and voting. Using an original, 45-state dataset, we examine state innovation within the policy …
Laboratories of Bureaucracy
How and under what conditions might bureaucrats look to other states? Using a novel dataset of state early learning standards, I conduct dyad analysis to explain across-state citations in bureaucratic documents. Federal government programs can affect which states are looked to for ideas by defining which states are successful through competitive grant programs. Furthermore, the success of programs within the state affect whether bureaucrats look …
Learning without Widespread Policy Adoption
Do states learn from other states through venues other than the legislative enactment of new policies? This article demonstrates that two-way learning can occur through alternative venues: (1) legislators can adjust the budget of similar state policies to mirror other states’ policies and (2) bureaucrats can learn from other states’ policies and incorporate that learning through non-legislative state action, such as standards. Using an original f…
Communication patterns in women with provoked vestibulodynia and their partners
Provoked vestibulodynia (PVD) is a recurrent vulvovaginal pain condition that has potentially negative consequences for women and their partners’ sexual functioning and overall quality of life. Research has found that greater observed empathic responses during conversations about the impact of vulvodynia are associated with greater relational and sexual satisfaction. However, observed self-disclosure was unrelated to relational or sexual satisfac…
