The results suggest that the effects of divergent partisan cues, rather than differing priorities regarding maximizing eligible turnout and minimizing ineligible turnout, are the more likely explanation for the partisan gaps found in the observational data.

100

Some participants were also provided with cues signaling which party endorsed which system.

100

One system would entirely prevent ineligible votes, randomly varying turnout rates among eligible voters; the other would yield universal turnout among eligible voters, but result in some randomly varied number of ineligible voters casting ballots.

100

Across two pre-registered survey experiments, participants were asked to make trade-offs between a pair of voting systems.

"Partisanship and Voting Rule Trade-offs" examines whether partisan differences about voting rules come from genuine disagreement about the trade-off between maximizing turnout and preventing ineligible votes.

The health professionals surveyed had a strong preference for gain-framed messages; however, many also mentioned a sense of duty to warn audiences of the health harms of climate change. 8/9

and the stop/loss and start/gain framed articles led to a small decrease in participants’ support for fossil fuels. 7/9

The authors found that reading any of the four versions of the news article led to a small increase in trust in health professionals as a source of information on climate change relative to the control group, 6/9

In addition, they surveyed a cohort of health professionals who advocate for climate action to test their willingness to use each of these message frames. 5/9

(1) Are do-more-good frames (about the need to use more renewable energy) or do-less-bad frames (about the need to phase out fossil fuels) more effective, and (2) Are gain frames (about health benefits) or loss frames (about health harms) more effective? 4/9
