My research interests center primarily around providing quantitatively oriented tests of substantive theories of consequences of political institutions, with special regard for electoral and legislative politics. In my recent research, I focus on the causes of missing data, the estimation of public support for democracy, and an investigation on how candidates and voters evaluate campaign promises. My works have been published in Political Analysis, Political Science and Research Methods, Political Studies Review, among other academic journals.
