This paper shows that political attitudes are linked to cooperative behavior in an incentivized experiment with a large sample randomly drawn from the Danish population. However, this relationship depends on the way the experiment is framed. In the standard game in which subjects give to a public good, contributions are the same regardless of political attitudes. In an economically equivalent version, in which subjects take from a public good, left-wingers cooperate significantly more than subjects in the middle or to the right of the political spectrum. Through simulation techniques we find that this difference in the framing effect across political point of views is to some extent explained by differences in beliefs and basic cooperation preferences. ; This paper shows that political attitudes are linked to cooperative behavior in an incentivized experiment with a large sample randomly drawn from the Danish population.

Apart from the paucity of factual material regarding changes in public att's since the coming of pol'al broadcasting, there is the problem of deciding how far the changes are actually due to the influence of radio & television (TV). There is no evidence that the new media have done anything to separate the party leader from his colleagues, & it may be that the new techniques have arrived at a transition period in politics when they are most needed. TV pol'al programs attract much greater audiences than sound-radio broadcasts, though the indications are that the impact of the latter is greater so far as election broadcasts are concerned. Apart from party-pol'al broadcasts there is a wide range of 'non-pol'al' & partly pol'al programs which influence pol'al att's. Modern radio & TV audiences are receiving a much higher proportion of pol'al educ, & a much lower proportion of pol'al propaganda, than their forbears; & broadcasting seems, in this way, to have contributed to the fall in pol'al temperature.

In the fight against climate change, renewable energy has been subsidised in many countries. With the costs passed onto consumers, governments are paying those, for example, who instal domestic solar panels on top of their homes and feed electricity back into the system at preferential rates. We know that substantial amounts of income flow into households with solar installations as a result, but we do not know much about the political consequences of these programmes. Similar government programmes are known to have resource and interpretative effects on participants, leading to changes in their attitudes. Drawing on three longitudinal surveys from Germany, United Kingdom, and Switzerland, this article analyses whether installation of these solar panels causes meaningful changes in households' various political attitudes. Using fixed-effect models as the identification strategy, the article reports null results – solar installations do not seem to generate political attitudes. This is good as well as bad news for actors looking to increase the amount of renewable energy produced through solar installations.

Cross-sectional comparisons of employed women & housewives have found significant differences in political opinions & political involvement, as well as differences on psychological variables such as self-esteem. A quasi-eperimental design is applied to the 1972-1976 National Election Study panel, comparing employed women (N = 112), housewives (N = 121), & women who entered the LF between 1972 & 1976 (N = 56), in order to examine the competing hypotheses of self-selection & socialization. Clear evidence is found for processes of socialization. 4 Tables, 5 Figures, 1 Appendix, 25 References. Modified HA

To explain the political clout of different social groups, traditional accounts typically focus on the group's size, resources, or commonality and intensity of its members' interests. We contend that a group's penumbra—the set of individuals who are personally familiar with people in that group—is another important explanatory factor that merits systematic analysis. To this end, we designed a panel study that allows us to learn about the characteristics of the penumbras of politically relevant groups such as gay people, the unemployed, or recent immigrants. Our study reveals major and systematic differences in the penumbras of various social groups, even ones of similar size. Moreover, we find evidence that entering a group's penumbra is associated with a change in attitude on group-related policy questions. Taken together, our findings suggest that penumbras are pertinent for understanding variation in the political standing of different groups in society.
