With the advent of Big Data, political organizations are increasingly able to target messages by demographic information.

In this paper, we study the efficacy of targeted appeals in mobilizing likely support... |

Mellissa Meisels, 2025, "Strategic Campaign Attention to Abortion Before and After Dobbs", https://doi.org/10.60600/YU/Z3MQ8G, Yale Dataverse, V2
In 2022, the US Supreme Court overturned the constitutional protection of abortion rights established in Roe v. Wade. In doing so, Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization moved status quo on abortion policy more into line with the Republican Party’s stance. Subsequent research has documented the decision’s impact on mass political behavior and... |

In 2021, the Indian government announced the goal of net-zero carbon emissions in India by 2070. India’s vulnerability to climate impacts and central role in reducing global emissions make it essential to understand the policy features that affect Indians’ support for the 2070 goal. We conducted a conjoint experiment (N = 1,500) to test Indians’ su... |

Matthew Dahl, 2025, "Chain Novel, or Markov Chain? Estimating the Authority of U.S. Supreme Court Case Law", https://doi.org/10.60600/YU/ETLP49, Yale Dataverse, V2
How does the authority of case law evolve over time? On the Dworkinian legal formalist view, cases increase in authority as they become more embedded in the “chain” of legal precedent, but on the Holmesian legal realist view, each case's authority is proportional to its ability to predict future legal outcomes. In this article, I show how modeling... |

Eric Scheuch; Mark Ortiz; Ganga Shreedhar; Laura Thomas-Walters, 2024, "The Power of Protest in the Media: Examining Portrayals of Climate Activism in UK News", https://doi.org/10.60600/YU/7VDIEQ, Yale Dataverse, V2
Existing research on American climate opinion demonstrates that a wide variety of variables impact whether voters support a given policy. However, little research has empirically tested which variables matter the most in creating durable majority support for climate policies, and how varying outcomes of those variables can impact such support. I us... |

Cesar Zucco; Natalia Bueno; Felipe Nunes, 2024, "Benefits by Luck: A Study of Lotteries as a Selection Method for Government Programs", https://doi.org/10.60600/YU/THFJQA, Yale Dataverse, V2, UNF:6:sRMl7DqEdfTzOEHjrvqJqw== [fileUNF]
Lotteries could be a just and cost-effective procedure to distribute government benefits in contexts of oversubscription, with the added benefit of allowing assessments of the impact of government programs. However, little is known about whether there is public support for employing lotteries for selecting beneficiaries of public policies. We exami... |

Gregory Huber; Patrick Tucker, 2025, "What to Expect When You’re Electing: Citizen Forecasts in the 2020 Election", https://doi.org/10.60600/YU/BKHFGP, Yale Dataverse, V2
Political divisions in the lead-up to the 2020 US presidential election were large, leading many to worry that heighted partisan conflict was so stark that partisans were living in different worlds, divided even in their understanding of basic facts. Moreover, the nationalization of American politics is thought to weaken attention to state politica... |

Scott Bokemper; Gregory Huber; Alan S. Gerber, 2024, "Health Risks and Voting: Emphasizing Safety Measures Taken to Prevent COVID-19 Does Not Increase Willingness to Vote in Person", https://doi.org/10.60600/YU/CA4ULL, Yale Dataverse, V2
The COVID-19 pandemic made salient the risks posed by an infectious disease at a polling place. To what degree did such health risks, as with other changes to voting costs, affect the willingness to vote in person? Could highlighting safety measures reduce the association between COVID fears and unwillingness to vote in person? Using both a represe... |

Jacob S. Hacker; Amelia Malpas; Paul Pierson; Sam Zacher, 2024, "Bridging the Blue Divide: The Democrats’ New Metro Coalition and the Unexpected Prominence of Redistribution", https://doi.org/10.60600/YU/LPN0UE, Yale Dataverse, V2
The electoral base of the Democratic Party has been transformed over the past generation. Democrats have lost ground in rural America while adding strength in cities and, more recently, suburbs. A major consequence of this shift has been the creation of a “U-shaped” Democratic voting base, with both poorer metro voters and affluent suburbanites sid... |
