Aronow, Peter M.; Samii, Cyrus, 2015, "Replication Data for: Does Regression Produce Representative Estimates of Causal Effects?", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/29098, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:5:xs1RlMqBcgw+xaJr+5fHCA== [fileUNF]
With an unrepresentative sample, the estimate of a causal effect may fail to characterize how effects operate in the population of interest. What is less well understood is that conventional estimation practices for observational studies may produce the same problem even with a representative sample. Causal effects estimated via multiple regression... |

Grossman, Guy; Gazal-Ayal, Oren; Pimentel, Samuel D.; Weinstein, Jeremy, 2015, "Replication Data for: Descriptive Representation and Judicial Outcomes in Multi-Ethnic Societies", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/28870, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:5:NLn+7sCoGdfk6dxf2al4Ig== [fileUNF]
The extent to which judicial outcomes depend on judges' identities is a central question in multiethnic societies. Past work on the impact of the racial composition of appellate courts has narrowly focused on civil rights cases in the United States. We expand this literature by testing for ethnicity-based panel effects in criminal appeals in Israel... |

Marschall, Melissa; Rutherford, Amanda, 2015, "Replication Data for: Voting Rights for Whom?: Examining the Effects of the Voting Rights Act on Latino Political Incorporation", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/28750, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:5:6M6JGC785Ktj/5qoD7FJ1w== [fileUNF]
This study applies insights from principal-agent models to examine whether and how the language assistance provisions of the Voting Rights Act, Sections 203 and 4(f)(4), affect Latino representation. Using panel data from 1984–2012, we estimate two-stage models that consider the likelihood and extent of Latino board representation for a sample of 1... |
Bishin, Benjamin G.; Hayes, Thomas J.; Incantalupo, Matthew; Smith, Charles Anthony, 2015, "Replication Data for: Opinion Backlash and Public Attitudes: Are Political Advances in Gay Rights Counterproductive?", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/28640, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:5:NY8K3J/y+VT4Z0Bhtd2JWA== [fileUNF]
Popular sovereignty creates tension when it conflicts with other democratic values. One long recognized consequence of this tension is public opinion backlash, which occurs when individuals recoil in response to some salient event. For decades, scholars have suggested that opinion backlash impedes policy gains by marginalized groups. Public opinion... |

Kalla, Joshua; Broockman, David, 2015, "Replication Data for: Campaign Contributions Facilitate Access to Congressional Officials: A Randomized Field Experiment", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/28582, Harvard Dataverse, V1, UNF:5:BDB6h/TmRxnhAzRKDIXw4Q== [fileUNF]
Concern that donations to political campaigns can help political actors secure preferential treatment from policymakers has long occupied judges, scholars, and the public. However, the effects of contributions on policymakersâ behavior are notoriously difficult to assess. We present the first randomized field experiment on the topic. The experime... |

Schick, Andreas; Lanthier, Michael; Nardinelli, Clark, 2014, "Time Enough for Safety: Comment on “The Complications of Controlling Agency Time Discretion: FDA Review Deadlines and Postmarket Drug Safety”", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/27191, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Carpenter, Chattopadhyay, Moffitt, and Nall (2012) present results that suggest that time constraints on new-drug reviews are positively associated with post-market safety outcomes. However, their analysis omits obvious confounding variables, and their data set contains several clear errors. In regressions using a clean data set and plausible confo... |
Bechtel, Michael M.; Hainmueller, Jens, 2014, "Replication data for: How Lasting Is Voter Gratitude? An Analysis of the Short- and Long-term Electoral Returns to Beneficial Policy", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/25582, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Replication data for Bechtel/Hainmueller. 2011. "How Lasting Is Voter Gratitude? An Analysis of the Short- and Long-term Electoral Returns to Beneficial Policy" American Journal of Political Science (2011) 55 (4), 852-868. |
Graeme Blair; C. Christine Fair; Neil Malhotra; Jacob N. Shapiro, 2012, "Replication data for: Poverty and Support for Militant Politics: Evidence from Pakistan", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/OIHHPE, Harvard Dataverse, V3
Policy debates on strategies to end extremist violence frequently cite poverty as a root cause of support for the perpetrating groups. There is little evidence to support this contention, particularly in the Pakistani case. Pakistan’s urban poor are more exposed to the negative externalities of militant violence, and may in fact be less supportive... |

Blair, Graeme; Imai, Kosuke; Lyall, Jason, 2013, "Replication data for: Comparing and Combining List and Endorsement Experiments: Evidence from Afghanistan", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/EWG77Q, Harvard Dataverse, V2
List and endorsement experiments are becoming increasingly popular among social scientists as indirect survey techniques for sensitive questions. When studying issues such as racial prejudice and support for militant groups, these survey methodologies may improve the validity of measurements by reducing non-response and social desirability biases.... |
