Determinedandnervous Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 While we're in the eye of the storm of results, I'm curious to hear everyone's research interests.
cgfren08 Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 I don't want to be too specific, for obvious reasons. Very generally- Public opinion, voting patterns across demographics, and political economy.

Broadly, my interests lie in political psychology... The nature of ideology, prejudice, and the role of emotions in politics.
elw Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Also behavior/psychology: Opinion formation/change (esp. "truther" or conspiratorial beliefs), partisanship, prejudice.
Sbrail2 Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 My interests lie in the intersection of race, gender, and ethnicity with American politics

whatwasithinking Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 @elwright Hey elwright...just wanted to quickly check...did you receive any email of acceptance from Illinois and Michigan State...alas..I feel I did get rejected from both the schools...I guess the rejection emails are yet to be sent out! On the overall topic of research interest - Democratization, political behavior and economic policy choices
needavacation Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 Here's hoping this is the beginning of a good week for everyone here! Determinedandnervous, Moofasa and Straussian Dogmatist 3
Birdie Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 research interests: post-soviet space, democratization (and failure of democratization), nation building. I'm still waiting to hear back from 3 schools and every day that goes by without an answer--one way or another--has been more and more stressed out.
Straussian Dogmatist Posted February 8, 2016 Posted February 8, 2016 I'm a theory concentration. My area of interest is in the theoretical foundations of modern liberal democracy and the interplay between liberal thought and technology. I'm waiting on 7 schools! Received a waitlist from Davis and it's been silence from everyone else. Luckily none of my other schools seem to have reported much of anything! Hoping for Georgetown, Notre Dame, and maybe others this week... spooky.
