Abstract

Abstract Bølstad and Dinas (2017) propose a model of spatial voting, based on social identity theory, that suggests supporting a candidate/policy on the other side of the ideological spectrum has a disutility that is not accounted for by common spatial models. Unfortunately, the data they use cannot speak directly to whether the disutility arises because individuals perceive their ideology as a social identity. We present the results of an experimental study that measures the norm against crossing the ideological spectrum; tests the cost of doing so, controlling for spatial effects; and demonstrates that this cost increases with the salience and strength of identity norms. By demonstrating the norm mechanism for the disutility of crossing the ideological spectrum, we provide strong support for B&D's model.

越界:空间投票分类理论的证据
Bølstad和Dinas(2017)提出了一个基于社会认同理论的空间投票模型,该模型表明,支持意识形态光谱另一端的候选人/政策具有一般空间模型无法解释的负效用。不幸的是,他们使用的数据并不能直接说明这种负效用是否因为个人将他们的意识形态视为一种社会身份而产生。我们提出了一项实验研究的结果,该研究测量了反对跨越意识形态光谱的规范;测试这样做的成本,控制空间效应;并证明了这种成本随着身份规范的显著性和强度而增加。通过论证跨意识形态频谱负效用的规范机制,我们为B&D的模型提供了强有力的支持。
