摘要

教育与政治意识形态之间关系的研究可能受到传统观察方法中常见偏差的影响。Rasmussen等人(2021)的一项研究通过在丹麦不和谐双胞胎设计中检查社会和经济意识形态来解决这个问题,发现教育对经济保守主义有积极的因果影响,但对社会保守主义没有影响。在这篇论文中,我提供了一组使用基因型瑞典双胞胎数据集的这些结果的复制。我通过在多基因教育指数中使用异卵双胞胎的随机变异来补充这一点。结果与最初的研究有明显的不同,但也显示出对意识形态维度的精确定义和哪些子维度或项目包括在内是敏感的。总的来说,在经验性地定义意识形态时,可能需要更加谨慎。此外,教育对意识形态的影响可能对跨时空的教育经验的特定特征很敏感。

It Matters What and Where We Measure: Education and Ideology in a Swedish Twin Design
Abstract Research on the link between education and political ideology is likely affected by biases common in conventional observational methods. A study by Rasmussen et al. (2021) addresses this problem by examining social and economic ideology in a Danish discordant twin design, finding that education shows positive causal effects on economic, but not social, conservatism. In this paper, I provide a set of replications of these results using a dataset of genotyped Swedish twins. I complement this by using random variation within fraternal twin pairs in a polygenic index of education. Results differ markedly from the original study, but are also shown to be sensitive to precise definitions of the ideological dimensions and which sub-dimensions or items are included. Overall, more care may be warranted when empirically defining ideology. Additionally, educational effects on ideology are likely to be sensitive to particular characteristics of the educational experience across time and space.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Experimental Political Science (JEPS) features cutting-edge research that utilizes experimental methods or experimental reasoning based on naturally occurring data. We define experimental methods broadly: research featuring random (or quasi-random) assignment of subjects to different treatments in an effort to isolate causal relationships in the sphere of politics. JEPS embraces all of the different types of experiments carried out as part of political science research, including survey experiments, laboratory experiments, field experiments, lab experiments in the field, natural and neurological experiments. We invite authors to submit concise articles (around 4000 words or fewer) that immediately address the subject of the research. We do not require lengthy explanations regarding and justifications of the experimental method. Nor do we expect extensive literature reviews of pros and cons of the methodological approaches involved in the experiment unless the goal of the article is to explore these methodological issues. We expect readers to be familiar with experimental methods and therefore to not need pages of literature reviews to be convinced that experimental methods are a legitimate methodological approach. We will consider longer articles in rare, but appropriate cases, as in the following examples: when a new experimental method or approach is being introduced and discussed or when novel theoretical results are being evaluated through experimentation. Finally, we strongly encourage authors to submit manuscripts that showcase informative null findings or inconsistent results from well-designed, executed, and analyzed experiments.
