TY - JOUR TI - The Key Issue: Constituency Effects and Southern Senators' Roll-Call Voting on Civil Rights AU - Hood, M. V. AU - Kidd, Quentin AU - Morris, Irwin L. T2 - Legislative Studies Quarterly AB - One striking manifestation of the twentieth-century transformation of Southern politics is the liberalization of roll-call voting behavior of Southern Democrats on civil rights issues. One explanation for this shift focuses on the leftward pull of an increasingly mobilized black electorate. A second explanation cites the leftward push of a growing Republican Party. Using data for Southern senators and states from 1969 to 1996, we implement a time series cross-sectional analysis to evaluate the competing explanations. We find that the liberalization of voting patterns was ajoint result of the mobilization of the black electorate and the growth of Southern Republicanism.

T2 - American Politics Research AB - Existing models of presidential approval fail to fully explain the psychology of presidential evaluation. 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.

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.

As the title suggests, the workshop specifically excluded monitoring aimed at detecting effects on human health. Its focus was on monitoring for effects that genetically modified crops might have on the surrounding ecosystems, including plants, animals, and microorganisms. The purpose was to lay out the issues surrounding such monitoring, to describe what was known, and to identify what needed further attention.

Most social data are spatial, but this fact has been largely ignored in sociological and social science research. More extensive use of both spatial statistics and spatial analysis in sociology seems likely, and hopefully this article will stimulate social scientist readers to explore using GIS in their research.

These results are limited, however, exclusively to the contemporary period as scholars have not studied how black members of Congress behaved during Reconstruction, the first era of blacks' descriptive representation. Although black representatives from this era are typically portrayed as having been responsive to blacks' interests, some recent studies suggest that they often supported whites' interests on issues important to their black constituents. Employing a measure of racial ideology as well as a measure of general ideology developed by Poole and Rosenthal (1997), we investigate the relationship between descriptive and substantive representation in the U.S. House immediately after the Civil War, through the use of descriptive statistics, OLS regression, and forecasting techniques. We find that black Republicans during Reconstruction were more ideologically liberal on both general and racial issues than their white Republican colleagues in the South. These results suggest that the linkage between descriptive and substantive representation for blacks is not merely a recent phenomenon, but rather has more general applicability across time.
