New with @jgunderson8, in @PoPPublicSphere (open access): "Positional Blurring in Context."
Europe's populist parties typically blur their economic platforms but stay sharp on cultural issues. Does that pattern hold everywhere? 🧵

My fantastic student is working on the gender/age gap in polarization and social media. If you are eligible to vote in the UK or the US, please take her survey:

Please share this with your students as she's interested in polarization among Gen Z.
The inverted U persists in Western Europe.
Also, new @ches_data coming soon!!

When people used to fail open-book tests in high school, I used to be genuinely confused.
I get it now.

ALT Noah from Noah's ark says "What the Hell is This?" as he gestures to a hybrid elephant penguin labeled "Modern NHST". He's asking an elephant (labled "Fisherian Hypothesis Testing") and a penguin (labeled "Neyman Pearson Hypothesis Testing") implying that the two animals had sexual relations and produced the hybrid animal.
It's that time again! The CHES team is excited to announce that the 2024 CHES_Europe survey is officially in the field. A big thank you in advance to the experts who provide their time and insight to produce the data.
