Experiential Spillover in Public Views of Police and Courts
Personal experiences with public officials influence how those officials are perceived. We question whether these experiential effects extend to other officials. If people draw on what they know to make inferences about unfamiliar evaluative targets, then interactions with one actor may shape evaluations of other independent actors. Focusing on police and courts, analyses of data from two surveys reveal that personal interactions with public offi…
Conceptualizing and Measuring Structural Overlap in the Political Attitudes and Orientations of Multidimensional Groups
Objective We develop a conceptual framework to guide research on structural overlap in the political attitudes of multidimensional groups. The framework should help address questions regarding the existence of overlap in public opinion between multidimensional groups that share dimensional structure, the substantive content, trans‐situational consistency, and magnitude of structural overlap, and the consequences of unshared dimensionality. Method…
Indigenous Quotas and Symbolic Representation in Latin America
To redress imbalances in descriptive representation, many Latin American countries have applied gender quotas to elected offices, and some have developed quotas to increase the representation of Indigenous peoples. This study explores whether Indigenous quotas have produced positive effects on the symbolic representation among the target groups. Using AmericasBarometer data from Bolivia and Mexico, difference-in-difference analyses test whether I…

This perspective suggests a possible enthusiasm gap: among Donald Trump's supporters, nonevangelicals were more zealous while evangelicals were more tepid. We examine thi…
