Robert Grafstein; Ann Moser, 2010, "Replication data for: Confronting Political Economic Theories of Voting with Evidence", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/6UANXQ, Harvard Dataverse, V1
This paper illustrates one strategy for testing a theory of economic influences on voting. We use a competitive equilibrium model of the economy to determine the impact of an individual’s economic position on his or her economic interests and, ultimately, political interests. We then test whether this impact is observed in voting behavior, addressi... |
Christopher J. W. Zorn, 2010, "Replication data for: Modeling Duration Dependence", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/O4V7BR, Harvard Dataverse, V1
As applications of duration analysis have burgeoned in political science, scholars have become increasingly aware of the potential substantive importance of duration dependence: the extent to which the conditional hazards of the events of interest are rising or falling over time. Here I discuss the issue of duration dependence, focusing on the dist... |

Michael C. Herron, 2010, "Replication data for: Cutpoint-Adjusted Interest Group Ratings", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/GYFBPN, Harvard Dataverse, V1
While it is very common for Congressional researchers to use interest group ratings as measures of legislator policy preferences, this paper argues that the manner in which such ratings are calculated implies that they may poorly approximate the underlying legislator preferences on which they are based. In light of this, the paper develops a techni... |
Jörg Blasius; Victor Thiessen, 2010, "Replication data for: Methodological Artifacts in Measures of Political Efficacy and Trust: A Multiple Correspondence Analysis", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/XPFGAZ, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Many authors report a positive relationship of education and political interest with political efficacy and trust, but it is well known that both of the former are associated with response styles, such as a tendency to “strongly agree.” Since they are related to both a substantive concept (political efficacy and trust), and to methodological effect... |
Ron Johnston; Charles Pattie, 2010, "Replication data for: Ecological Inference and Entropy-Maximizing: An Alternative Estimation Procedure for Split-Ticket Voting", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/P9S62I, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Publication of King’s A Solution to the Ecological Inference Problem has rekindled interest in the estimation of unknown cell values in two- and three-dimensional matrices from knowledge of the marginal sums. This paper outlines an entropy-maximizing (EM) procedure which employs more constraints than King’s EI method and produces mathematical rathe... |

Cristina Ling, 2010, "Replication data for: Reexaminng the Media's Role in Forming Voters' National Economic Evaluations in 1992 Using the Sample Error Correction Method", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/WAQMYN, Harvard Dataverse, V1
This note replicates and extends Marc J. Hetherington’s “The Media’s Role in Forming Voters’ National Economic Evaluations in 1992” (American Journal of Political Science 40(2):372–395). Using an early release of the National Election Study (NES) data for 1992, Hetherington concluded that, in the 1992 election (although not in other years), negativ... |
Lee Sigelman, 2010, "Replication data for: Publication Bias Reconsidered", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/Z7J49T, Harvard Dataverse, V1
In political science and many other disciplines, statistically significant results—rejections of the null hypothesis—are achieved more frequently in published than in unpublished studies. Such “publication bias” is generally seen as the consequence of a widespread prejudice against statistically nonsignificant results. I argue that evidence of such... |
Sven E. Wilson; Daniel M. Butler, 2010, "Replication data for: A Lot More to Do: The Sensitivity of Time-Series Cross-Section Analyses to Simple Alternative Specifications", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/PNZI2S, Harvard Dataverse, V1
In 1995, Beck and Katz (B&K) instructed the profession on "What to do (and not to do) with time-series, cross-section data," and almost instantly their prescriptions became the new orthodoxy for practitioners. Our assessment of the intellectual aftermath of this paper, however, does not inspire confidence in the conclusions reached during the past... |

Thomas Plümper; Vera E. Troeger, 2010, "Replication data for: Efficient Estimation of Time-Invariant and Rarely Changing Variables in Finite Sample Panel Analyses with Unit Fixed Effects", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/LJQUB5, Harvard Dataverse, V1
This paper suggests a three-stage procedure for the estimation of time-invariant and rarely changing variables in panel data models with unit effects. The first stage of the proposed estimator runs a fixed-effects model to obtain the unit effects, the second stage breaks down the unit effects into a part explained by the time-invariant and/or rarel... |

Wagner Kamakura; Jose Mazzon, 2010, "Replication data for: Accounting for Voter Heterogeneity Within and Across Districts With a Factor-Analytic Voter Choice Model", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/8QDAI6, Harvard Dataverse, V1
In this study, we propose a model of individual voter behavior that can be applied to aggregate data at the district (or precinct) levels while accounting for differences in political preferences across districts and across voters within each district. Our model produces a mapping of the competing candidates and electoral districts on a latent "iss... |
