📣 MORAL APPEALS IN POLITICAL COMMUNICATION 📣
New version of @twidmann.bsky.social and my working paper answering:
* Have moral appeals increased over time?
* Is the tendency to moralize ideologically patterned?
* Are some topics consistently more moralized than others?

Excited to be presenting in shorts on this years' EPSA! 🩳

I'll be presenting joint work w. @fghjorth.bsky.social about geographical representation and commute time's effect on candidate supply 🗳️🧭

📍Friday 16:50-18:30 in room 0A.01
Alright, the most important (non-research-based) question of the year: Are shorts acceptable during presentations?
Checked Madrid’s temperature during #EPSA.

i) Skipped ECPR because August in Thessaloniki = death.

ii) Thought Madrid in June would be “pleasant.”

iii) It’s 39°C and I’m German—I was genetically engineered for 18°C and light drizzle. My wardrobe has no idea what to do. I might have to wear linen.

🧵1/ Are primaries bad for political diversity? Conventional wisdom says yes—but our article in @wepsocial.bsky.social shows that candidate selection modes are not necessarily a bottleneck for representation, at least when it comes to demand. 🗳️👥 @sandrahkansson.bsky.social

🚨 working paper (w. @morganlcj.bsky.social @markuswagner.bsky.social): Protesters are not judged equally - even if tactics of groups are similar.

We ran an experiment in 🇩🇪 testing how people react to farmers vs. climate activists blocking roads.

What we find is disturbing:

Another day of collecting the rents from amazing data (and researchers) on informing Danes (and the world) about Denmark.
In Denmark, most intergenerational mobility variation is due to family location choices and random factors. Urban areas promote greater upward mobility than rural ones. New research from Neil A. Cholli, Steven Durlauf (Harris Public Policy), Rasmus Landersø, & Salvador Navarro. ow.ly/rw9q50UnGnR

Nyt socialt medie, samme gamle rant:

Spotify har i fire år svigtet julestemningen ved at inkludere tre semi-kendte julesangsfortolkninger af Burhan G på spillelisten Julehits. Tilføjelsen af “Merry Xmas Everybody” af Slade er dog en formildende omstændighed.

The “science is always political” trope is very frustrating—at some level it is trivially true, but we can make science less political and that would be good! Highly recommend this essay by @stuartjritchie.bsky.social on this: open.substack.com/pub/stuartri...

I defended my PhD last week and I am now PhD in Political Science!

Thanks to everyone who contributed a long the way and made this happen! 🙏

In the next three years I will be working as a PostDoc for @fghjorth.bsky.social 🚀
Writing a Ph.D. is a job, but not an ordinary job. Certainly @fkjoeller.bsky.social did an extraordinary job. Thanks for an excellent defense to the committee + friends @asmusletholsen.bsky.social @bcegerod.bsky.social @johannarickne.bsky.social @annebind.bsky.social @mvinaes.bsky.social et al.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but if you are writing a paper where there are two theories

Theory 1: X-->Y
Theory 2: Z-->Y

Then the regression model Y~ X + Z is probably not what you are looking for.

Good thread about the upcoming election in Poland! (which I didn’t know was underway 😬)
The Polish elections coming up this Sunday are the most important in Europe this year - perhaps even in a decade - for anyone interested in democratic stability. This thread is about the elections and the results of a survey of N5,500 Poles fielded this week up until now.
