Annabel Bolck; Marcel Croon; Jacques Hagenaars, 2010, "Replication data for: Estimating Latent Structure Models with Categorical Variables: One-Step Versus Three-Step Estimators", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/YFREQV, Harvard Dataverse, V1
We study the properties of a three-step approach to estimating the parameters of a latent structure model for categorical data and propose a simple correction for a common source of bias. Such models have a measurement part (essentially the latent class model) and a structural (causal) part (essentially a system of logit equations). In the three-st... |

Stephen Coleman, 2010, "Replication data for: The Effect of Social Conformity on Collective Voting Behavior", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/RU4RJT, Harvard Dataverse, V1
This article investigates the effect of social conformity on voting behavior. Past research shows that many people vote to conform with the social norm that voting is a civic duty. The hypothesis here is that when conformity motivates people to vote, it also stimulates conformist behavior among some voters when they decide which party to vote for.... |

Thomas L. Brunell; John DiNardo, 2010, "Replication data for: A Propensity Score Reweighting Approach to Estimating the Partisan Effects of Full Turnout in American Presidential Elections", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/GFDLFN, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Borrowing an approach from the literature on the economics of discrimination, we estimate the impact of nonvoters on the outcome of presidential elections from 1952–2000 using data from the National Election Study (NES). Our estimates indicate that nonvoters are, on average, slightly more likely to support the Democratic Party. Of the 13 presidenti... |

Orit Kedar, 2010, "Replication data for: How Diffusion of Power in Parliaments Affects Voter Choice", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/U21JCL, Harvard Dataverse, V1
I analyze how the diffusion of power in parliaments affects voter choice. Using a two-step research design, I first estimate an individual-level model of voter choice in 14 parliamentary democracies, allowing voters to hold preferences both for the party most similar to them ideologically and for the party that pulls policy in their direction. Whil... |

Robert J. Franzese, Jr., 2010, "Replication data for: Empirical Strategies for Various Manifestations of Multilevel Data", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/ASCAQJ, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Equivalent separate-subsample (two-step) and pooled-sample (one-step) strategies exist for any multilevel-modeling task, but their relative practicality and efficacy depend on dataset dimensions and properties and researchers' goals. Separate-subsample strategies have difficulties incorporating cross-subsample information, often crucial in time-ser... |

John D. Huber; Georgia Kernell; Eduardo L. Leoni, 2010, "Replication data for: Institutional Context, Cognitive Resources and Party Attachments Across Democracies", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/T6UN5A, Harvard Dataverse, V1
This paper develops and tests arguments about how national-level social and institutional factors shape the propensity of individuals to form attachments to political parties. Our tests employ a two-step estimation procedure that has attractive properties when there is a binary dependent variable in the first stage and when the number of second-lev... |

Charles H. Franklin, 2009, "Estimation across Data Sets: Two-Stage Auxiliary Instrumental Variables Estimation (2SAIV)", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/HL5YUY, Harvard Dataverse, V1
Theories demand much of data, often more than a single data collection can provide. For example, many important research questions are set in the past and must rely on data collected at that time and for other purposes. As a result, we often find that the data lack crucial variables. Another common problem arises when we wish to estimate the relati... |

John Zaller, 2009, "Bringing Converse Back In: Modeling Information Flow in Political Campaigns", https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/PJ7CVB, Harvard Dataverse, V1
In his 1962 paper, "Information Flow and the Stability of Partisan Attitudes," Converse explained why moderately sophisticated voters are sometimes most susceptible to persuasion in election campaigns. Such people, Converse argued, pay enough attention to campaigns to be fairly heavily exposed to persuasive messages but lack the sophistication to b... |
