  • Politics Book Discussion Guide
    One Book One Northwestern Book Group Discussion Politics Politics ¡ How do you think someone’s political affiliation (Republican, Democrat, Green, Libertarian, Independent, etc.) may affect his or her analysis of the likelihood of certain world events? When have you seen this happen in real life? ¡ E.g. elections, wars, trade deals, environmental policy, etc. ¡ How can someone manage his or her own biases when making political predictions? Use your ideas and Silver’s. ¡ This election cycle has had a series of anomalies, especially regarding the race for and selection of presidential candidates. ¡ What specific anomalies have you noticed in this election cycle? ¡ How can political analysts factor in the possibility of anomalies in their predictions, given that there is no model to look back on that incorporates these anomalies? Politics ¡ In May 2016, Nate Silver published a blog post called “How I Acted Like A Pundit And Screwed Up On Donald Trump.” In the post, he lists reasons for why he incorrectly predicted that Trump would not win the Republican nomination for President, including that he ignored polls in favor of “educated guesses.” Harry Enten, a senior analyst at Nate Silver’s website FiveThirtyEight, describes more of this problem in an interview with This American Life. ¡ Why do you think Silver and his team ignored polls in this case, when they have relied on them heavily in the past? ¡ How do you think Silver’s predictions would have turned out differently if he had taken polls into consideration? ¡ Do you think Silver’s personal biases regarding the presidential candidate influenced his decisions when making his predictions? Why or why not? Politics: Case Study ¡ The Context: In July 2016, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was criticized for making public statements about the unfitness of presidential candidate Donald Trump.

  • Indiana Law Review Volume 52 2019 Number 1
    Indiana Law Review Volume 52 2019 Number 1 SYMPOSIUM HOOSIER BRIDESMAIDS MARGO M. LAMBERT* A. CHRISTOPHER BRYANT** Indiana proudly proclaims itself the “Crossroads of America.”1 While some northeast-corridor cynics might deride the boast as a paraphrase for flyover country, there is no denying the political significance of the Hoosier State’s geographical and cultural centrality. As one of Indiana’s most celebrated historians has observed, “[b]y the beginning of the twentieth century Indiana was often cited as the most typical of American states, perhaps because Hoosiers in this age of transition generally resisted radical change and were able usually to balance moderate change with due attention to the continuities of life and culture.”2 Throughout the Gilded Age, elections in the state were so closely fought that the winning party rarely claimed more than slimmest majority.3 At the time, Indiana tended to favor Republicans over Democrats, but the races were close with Democrats claiming their share of victories.4 During these years, voter turnout remained high in presidential elections, with Indiana ranging from the eightieth to the ninetieth percentiles, no doubt a product of the closeness of the contests. Such voter turnout substantially exceeded that typical of surrounding states.5 Hoosiers liked to politick. The state’s high voter participation may also have been, in some part, attributable to its relaxed voting laws for adult males during the nineteenth * Associate Professor of History, University of Cincinnati Blue Ash College. ** Rufus King Professor of Constitutional Law, University of Cincinnati College of Law. The authors, proud Hoosiers by birth and Buckeyes by professional opportunity, thank first and foremost Brad Boswell for entrusting us with the opportunity to open the March 29, 2018 Symposium.

Jan Karem Höhne University of Göttingen Timo Lenzner GESIS - Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences Since Likert’s (1932) well-known article “A Technique for the Measurement of Attitudes”, the use of agree/disagree (A/D) questions has become increasingly popular in empirical social research, because it appears to be possible to measure several constructs with a single response format. Fowler (1995), by contrast, argues that using item-specific (IS) questions represents a simpler, more direct, and more informative method than using agree/disagree questions. Until now, this assumption has never been tested empirically. In the current study, we investigate cognitive processing of A/D and IS questions in web surveys using eye-tracking methodology. Recording respondents’ eye movements, we are able to investigate how respondents process the survey questions and response categories to determine their information processing. We conducted an eye-tracking experiment with two groups: the first group (n = 44) received three A/D single questions dealing with different political issues (agree/disagree condition). The second group (n = 40) received three IS counterparts dealing with the same question content (item- specific condition). The results of our investigations indicate that IS questions encourage a deeper cognitive processing than A/D questions.

    NOT FOR CITATION OR CIRCULATION TRUMPISM, POST-TRUTH, AND THE CRISIS OF POLITICAL SCIENCE1 By: Edwin Kent Morris, Ph.D. Radford University Department of Political Science CHBS 5302, P.O. 6945 Radford, VA 24142 Phone: 540-831-6598 Fax: 540-831-6599 [email protected] AUTHOR DETAILS EDWIN KENT MORRIS holds a Ph.D. in Social, Political, Ethical, and Cultural Thought from the ASPECT (i.e., Alliance for the Social, Political Ethical, and Cultural Thought) interdisciplinary doctoral program at Virginia Tech. He has been published in the International Review of the Aesthetics and Sociology of Music (IRASM), and has published five articles in the ASPECT online journal SPECTRA. He has presented papers at the International Studies Association and the Western Political Science Association. As an instructor at Virginia Tech, he received recognition for excellence in teaching and research, including a 2014 “Thank a Teacher” by the Center for Instructional Development and Educational Research (CIDER), and has been a recipient of the 2012 “Favorite Faculty Award” by the Virginia Tech student association, and the 2011 “Best Master’s Thesis Award” by the Virginia Tech Department of Political Science. He is currently an adjunct faculty member with the Department of Political Science at Radford University. 1 I assume like many folks in this line of work that we all felt compelled in some way to ‘respond’ to the outcome of the 2016 presidential election. This paper began the day after that election and was ‘finished’ September 2017 (that is, I grew weary of working on it and had other projects and matters to attend too).

The Buffaloes have been on national TV a total of 140 times, owning a 62-75-3 record (33-22-2 in Boulder). Since 1990, the Buffaloes have been one of the most televised teams in the nation, as 178 of their 257 games (69 percent) have been broadcast either nationally or regionally. The first appearance on TV by Colorado was in 1951, as the Nebraska game in Lincoln on Nov. 17 was broadcast to 19 states in the central part of the nation as part of the NCAA television testing program; an estimated 8-to- 10 million people watched the Buffs win in impressive fashion. An interesting fact is that the first college football game ever televised on ESPN involved Colorado, as the fledgling cable network broadcast the Oregon-CU game on Sept. 8, 1979.
