In my article ”What Can We Learn about the Effects of Democracy Using Cross-National Data?”, I show that low statistical power presents an obstacle to learning about cross-national differences. A thread below: www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

The super election year is ending, with many winners and losers. Our new @thejop.bsky.social paper, (@henrikseeberg.bsky.social, @martinbaekgaard.bsky.social ) asks: How do winning and losing candidates see elections? Spoiler: Losers are more concerned about fairness. Link: doi.org/10.1086/734240
