            This paper reports results from a large-scale randomized controlled trial assessing whether counter-stereotypical messaging and partisan cues can induce people to get COVID-19 vaccines. The study used a 27-s video compilation of Donald Trump’s comments about the vaccine from Fox News interviews and presented the video to millions of U.S. YouTube users through a $100,000 advertising campaign in October 2021. Results indicate that the number of vaccines increased in the average treated county by 103 (with a one-tailed
            P
            value of 0.097). Based on this average treatment effect and totaling across our 1014 treated counties, the total estimated effect was 104,036 vaccines.

How the Stability of Aggregate Abortion Attitudes Conceals Partisan Induced Shifts}, volume={12}, ISSN={["1938-274X"]}, DOI={10.1177/10659129231222883}, abstractNote={ The 2022 Dobbs decision, striking down constitutional protection for abortion, sent shockwaves through the American political system. For the 50 years prior, however, public opinion on abortion was distinctive for its stability, with almost the same percent of Americans supporting legal abortion in the twenty-first century as in the 1970s. This stasis persisted during a period of dramatic change in the political landscape. We employ General Social Survey (GSS) data to explore the ways that partisanship, as well as demographic and attitude changes among key groups, have contributed to underlying shifts in abortion attitudes and, on an aggregate level, the appearance of stability. We show that demographic changes combined with meaningful attitude change balance each other out leading to deceptive stability. We also show the growing power of partisanship as a predictor of abortion attitudes for both Democrats and Republicans, especially Republican women, who have become more opposed to legal abortion than Republican men. Our findings provide a baseline for understanding abortion attitudes in post-Roe America and insights as to where continuity and change can be expected. }, journal={POLITICAL RESEARCH QUARTERLY}, author={Deckman, Melissa and Elder, Laurel and Greene, Steven and Lizotte, Mary-Kate}, year={2023}, month={Dec} }

Hillary Clinton was the first female major party presidential candidate and self-identified as a feminist speaking openly about the challenges facing women. Clinton faced off against Donald Trump, who was on record making sexist statements and arguing that Clinton’s success was from playing the “woman card”. We ask several questions: who identifies as a feminist today and how is this different from who identified as a feminist in the previous generation? Who identifies as “anti-feminist”? Are anti-feminists simply a mirror reflection of feminists or is it a distinctive social identity? Finally, the study explores the meaning of these labels by looking at what feminists and anti-feminists believe in terms of public policy and attitudes about gender equality. Thus, this study provides insights into the state of modern feminism and antifeminism in contemporary American politics.}, journal={JOURNAL OF WOMEN POLITICS & POLICY}, author={Elder, Laurel and Greene, Steven and Lizotte, Mary-Kate}, year={2021}, month={Jul} }

Given the additional demands created on parents due to working at home, on-line schooling, and caring for children 24/7, there is every reason to expect America’s parents to suffer disproportionately from the impacts of the pandemic. Using a COVID-focused nationally representative survey from September 2020, we explore how COVID-19 has uniquely affected the attitudes and life experiences of American parents. We find that COVID-19 has been unusually burdensome for parents as they are more likely to have contracted COVID, experienced negative mental health outcomes, perceived a greater threat from COVID, and had more negative personal financial impacts. Additionally, we find that parents are more skeptical of vaccines and that parents prefer on-line education. Importantly, most all of our impacts for parenthood, vaccines excepted, hold up in multi-variate models with additional demographic and political controls, strongly suggesting that parenthood itself is uniquely challenging in the current pandemic.}, journal={SSRN}, year={2021} }

Motherhood shapes views on a variety of issues, but the question remains whether mothers hold distinctive views on gun control policies relative to their non-parent peers. We draw on 2017 Pew Research Center data to explore the ways gender, parenthood, and race intersect to shape attitudes on gun policy in the post-Sandy Hook era when gun violence has become prominently linked with schools and children, and during a time when the Black Lives Matter movement has drawn national attention to the relationship of gun violence and racial inequality. Most notably, we find that contemporary depictions of mothers as a distinctively pro-gun control constituency are largely inaccurate. The very real gender gap in gun policy attitudes appears to be falsely attributed to motherhood, rather than gender. We also find very little impact of parenthood for men. Finally, we generally fail to see much relationship between race, parenthood, and gun attitudes. Overall, despite common belief and media reporting to the contrary, the story is very much one where parenthood seems to play little role in gun policy attitudes.}, number={3}, journal={Journal of Elections, Public Opinion and Parties}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Greene, Steven and Deckman, Melissa and Elder, Laurel and Lizotte, Mary-Kate}, year={2020}, month={Dec}, pages={655–673} }

We find that non-black respondents perceive a black model as more threatening when he is wearing a bandana or a homemade cloth mask than when he is not wearing his face covering--especially those respondents who score above average in racial resentment, a common measure of racial bias.

The number of GM foods approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and offered on supermarket shelves has steadily grown at the same time that public wariness about the safety of GM foods has increased. Studies within the scientific literature show a strikingly large gender gap in attitudes towards GM foods with women consistently more skeptical than men. However, there have been few efforts to understand the determinants of the gender gap on GM foods within the political science literature. This study employs a 2014 Pew Research Center survey on science issues to test several possible explanations for the gender gap in attitudes towards GM foods rooted in the different life experiences of women and men. The results show that while being a parent predicts more skeptical views about genetically modified foods overall it does not explain the gender gap in attitudes. In contrast, knowledge about science and having confidence in science do play a significant role in mediating the gender gap. By exploring the robust and pervasive gender gap on the issue of GM foods, this study sheds light on the fundamentally different ways men and women approach political issues.}, number={4}, journal={The Social Science Journal}, publisher={Informa UK Limited}, author={Elder, Laurel and Greene, Steven and Lizotte, Mary Kate}, year={2018}, month={Dec}, pages={500–509} }

We go beyond these analyses by identifying a mechanism for this apparent effect: constituents perceived incumbents who supported health care reform as more ideologically distant (in this case, more liberal), which in turn was associated with lower support for those incumbents. Our analyses show that this perceived ideological difference mediates most of the apparent impact of support for health care reform on both individual-level vote choice and aggregate-level vote share.

Using a rich, contextual dataset containing measures not only of respondent perceptions of political information, but actual content coding of those sources of political information, we estimate how television, newspapers, personal discussants, organizations, and political parties may have impacted the voting of men and women in the 1992 U.S. presidential election. We find that women’s vote choices are more likely than men’s to be influenced by the organizations to which they belong. Women are also more likely to respond to television news with a hostile media bias—they see television newscasts as definitively favoring the candidate that they oppose. We address possible explanations for these patterns of results and point towards directions for additional research.

We would like to thank Paul Allen Beck, Russell Dalton, and Robert Huckfeldt for making their enhanced Cross National Election Project data available. The author’s names are listed alphabetically.Notes1 The full list of organizations that respondents were asked if they were a member of are: labor unions, business or professional associations, farmer associations, women’s rights organizations, church or religious groups, environmental groups, public interest groups, fraternal organizations, sports or gun clubs, neighborhood associations, veteran’s organizations, civil groups (such as parent–teacher organizations), ethnic, racial or nationality associations, and other.2 We exclude Perot from our codings of bias and subsequent analyses since: (1) although receiving 19% of the popular vote, there was much less evidence of media bias as well as very low levels of Perot influences among discussants and organizations in the data; (2) considerable scholarly research indicates that Perot drew support evenly from Bush and Clinton (Polsby & Wildavsky, 2000; Rosenstone, Behr, & Lazarus, 1996; and Weisberg & Kimball, 1995); and (3) it consequently is unclear how Perot bias should impact results in what remains a primarily two-party electoral context.3 Although this conclusion may not be entirely justified, to exclude respondents who did receive exposure to all these intermediaries would lead to a rather severe missing data problem, especially when the overall N is cut in half by estimating separate models by gender. Furthermore, in other analyses, where respondents not receiving political information from a particular source were excluded from analyses, results were not substantially different from results coded as those here.4 We choose to use household, rather than respondent, income as the control variable as it should have a stronger relationship with political attitudes. For example, a nonworking person whose spouse earns $200,000 a year will likely share the political attitudes of other wealthy persons, rather than the attitudes of the unemployed and lower SES. Household income, in addition to being the standard income measure used in voting analyses (Abramson, Aldrich, & Rohde, 1998; Miller & Shanks, 1996), is the only income measure available in this survey.5 We choose to code the impact of racial minority as a Black/non-Black dummy variable because the relationship between Blacks and the Democratic party is the strongest and most consistent relationship of any racial/ethnic group and partisan affiliation (Abramson et al., 1998; Tate, 1993).6 In repeating this regressions in a multinomial logit framework, in which Perot voters are no longer excluded, the patterns of significant coefficients of the models in Table 2 remain the same.7 It should be noted that although including all respondents in a single interaction model in which gender is interacted with each independent variable would be preferable for determining statistically significant differences between men and women, we have chosen the dual model approach for ease of interpretation. Nonetheless, when we ran models, which featured interaction terms with the key independent variables, we obtained statistically significant interaction terms for those variables in which there was a difference in statistical significance for men and women. Furthermore, these differences are not a matter of splitting hairs, e.g., p=.04 versus p=.06. In cases where women had a statistically significant results of p<.05, men came nowhere near approaching significance on the same variable.8 Ideally, it would be very useful to examine the levels of psychological and/or behavioral commitment to these various groups and how this may impact their influence. Unfortunately, the data only indicate whether or not the respondents considers themselves to be members of the mentioned groups.9 Since up to five discussants were interviewed for each respondent, we focus here on just the primary discussant for ease of interpretation. The examined patterns in subsequent discussants closely followed those with the primary discussant.}, number={3}, journal={Social Science Journal}, year={2003}, pages={385–399} }

Research has illuminated the personal calculus of voting, but the social calculus has received little attention since the 1940s. This study expands our understanding of the social influences on individual choice by examining the relationship of partisan biases in media, organizational, and interpersonal intermediaries to the voting choices of Americans. Its results show that the traditional sources of social influence still dominate: Interpersonal discussion outweighs the media in affecting the vote. Media effects appear to be the product of newspaper editorial pages rather than television or newspaper reporting, which contain so little perceptible bias that they often are misperceived as hostile. Parties and secondary organizations also are influential, but only for less interested voters—who are more affected by social contexts in general. Overall, this study demonstrates that democratic citizens are embedded in social contexts that join with personal traits in shaping their voting decisions.}, number={1}, journal={American Political Science Review}, author={Beck, P.A. and Dalton, R.J. and Greene, S. and Huckfeldt, R.}, year={2002}, pages={57–73} }

Particularly prominent in recent years is the gap in party identification between men and women. In this paper, rather than examiningsimple party preferences, we explore the underlying psychology of partisanship and how it varies between men and women. We conceptualize party identification as not just an affective attachment to party, but rather as a complex attitude consisting of affective, cognitive, and social identity components. Using a random survey of voters in a metropolitan, midwestern county, we compare men and women on the psychological bases of their partisanship as well as the separate positive and negative aspects of their partisan attitudes. As compared to men, women are found to have uniformly lower evaluations of the parties, resulting mainly from relatively less positive feelings and cognitions. We also find that the group component of partisanship, social identification, plays a significant role in the partisanship of women, but not men. We conclude that men and women may have a gender gap not only in which parties they relate to, but also in how they psychologically relate to those parties.}, number={1}, journal={Women and Politics}, year={2001}, pages={63–84} }

Research on political candidates strongly suggests that character trait assessments should affect citizens' approval of the sitting president, but macro-level, longitudinal analyses generally lack appropriate measures of presidential character. A series of logistic regression models of individual-level presidential approval are estimated using National Election Studies (NES) data to address the impact or character assessments on presidential approval while controlling for economic evaluations and policy assessments. Presidential character trait assessments prove to be a significant and robust predictor of an individual's approval of the president. A final model, using a panel design, demonstrates that character assessments are causally prior to approval.}, number={2}, journal={American Politics Research}, author={Greene, S.}, year={2001}, pages={196–210} }

It tests the hypothesis that individuals living in states with party registration laws are more likely than those living in states without such laws to identify themselves as partisans. This occurs primarily because of self-perception processes by which registrants infer their party attitudes from their own behaviors. Using the state-based Senate Election Study data to test this expectation, we find strong evidence for both statistically and substantively significant effects of party registration on individual partisanship. Registered indviduals living in states with party registration are, by about ten percenage points, more likely to identify as partisans than those in other states even when controlling for alternative hypotheses dealing with state cuture, attitudes toward the parties, retrospective evaluations, interest in politics, and demographic factors. Importantly, the effect is not observed for individuals who are not registered to vote but is for registered novoters. However, registration-induced party identification is shallow, as individuals living in registration states are also more likely to vote for candidates from the other party.}, number={1}, journal={Political Research Quarterly}, author={Burden, B.C. and Greene, S.}, year={2000}, pages={63–76} }

These individuals self-classify themselves as politically independent, yet admit to preferring one political party over the other when probed. Previous research has shown that these partisan leaners are not demonstrably different from avowed partisans in either the attitudinal or behavioral support for their preferred party. Why these individuals should be partisan in attitudes and behaviors yet still consider themselves independents has not been adequately examined and raises important questions about our current understanding of partisanship. Using a unique psychological survey of voting-age adults, I find that leaners are different from true partisans in four areas: relatively less emphasis on affect and more emphasis on cognition in partisan attitudes; less partisan social identity, but heightened independent social identity; different paterns of parental socialization; and more negative attitudes toward parties in general.}, number={4}, journal={American Politics Research}, author={Greene, S.}, year={2000}, pages={511–537} }
