  • With a Little Help from Our Feds

    Open AccessHeather M Creek, Stephen YoderARTICLEPolicy Studies Journal2012Cited by: 37References: 43

    Since 2001, state governments have adopted 287(g) cooperative immigration enforcement agreements with the federal government that authorize their law enforcement personnel to assist in detaining violators of civil federal immigration law. Employing a theoretical framework drawn from theories of policy adoption, intergovernmental relations, and immigration research, we test which state‐level political, sociodemographic, geographic, and economic de…

  • What Happens at the Journal Office Stays at the Journal Office

    Open AccessStephen Yoder, Brittany H BramlettARTICLEPS Political Science & Politics2011References: 10

    Dissemination of journal submission data is critical for identifying editorial bias, creating an informed scholarly marketplace, and critically mapping the contours of a discipline's scholarship. However, our survey and case study investigations indicate that nearly a decade after the Perestroika movement began, political science journals remain reserved in collecting and releasing submission data. We offer several explanations for this lack of t…

    Open AccessJason Muldrow, Stephen YoderARTICLEPS Political Science & Politics2009References: 1

We close by surveying and contrasting Zotero's features with those of its staunchest …

The methodology consists of a combination of individual interviews and focus groups conducted for three distinct groups of parti…

  • MapTime

    Terry A Slocum, Terry Slocum et al.ARTICLECartographica The International…2000

    We introduce MapTime, a software package for exploring spatiotemporal data associated with point locations. Three basic exploration methods are available in Map-Time: animation, small multiples, and change maps. Animated maps can be presented either automatically (at a specified frame rate) or under user control (by dragging a scroll box along a scroll bar). We found the user-controlled approach most effective, but this and other Map-Time feature…
