‼️ New paper out in @polbehavior.bsky.social ! We ask whether the politically active (in terms of electoral or other forms of participation) are better represented? See Jesper's detailed 🧵 below for more info on the paper! 👇

🧵I am happy to announce a new article in Political Behavior @polbehavior.bsky.social, “Are the Politically Active Better Represented?”, co-authored with @jenny-oser.bsky.social, @rdassonneville.bsky.social, @professormpersson.bsky.social, and Anders Sundell. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

NEW - How Are Social Groups Linked to the Vote? Social Group Perceptions and Party Choice - https://cup.org/4ohzoJP "the first to show experimental evidence for the effect of group evaluations on vote choice" - Rune Stubager #OpenAccess

Happy to see our study out! Our main takeaway is that while poor voters vote less often, are less ideologically aligned with their preferred party, and see their preferred party less often in government - voting still does not seem to explain unequal representation.

Somehow, it's already time for #APSA2025! Presenting the newest version of my paper w @jenny-oser.bsky.social + @jesperlindqvist.bsky.social on political participation and politicians' perceptions of public opinion. Happy to meet during the conference, so please reach out! @apsa.bsky.social

EPSA have announced that they will hold a conference in July 2026. 😵‍💫 We understand that there might be some confusion about EPSS and EPSA. 👉🏽 So we thought we would clarify some things. A short 🧵

I'm presenting work w the amazing @jenny-oser.bsky.social and @jesperlindqvist.bsky.social at #EPSA2025 on Thursday. We combine 40 years of parallel surveys among citizens/MPs + a survey experiment w Swedish politicians on participation and public opinion Come and say hi - always happy to meet!

Very interesting paper about the left-right dimension!

Great to see this finally out! It's an interesting paper because we examine whether unequal representation is caused by how low- and high-income people vote (for example ideological voting). Our findings goes against this idea, meaning that unequal representation must be caused by something else!

New working paper! How do protesters' demographics and policy preferences affect politicians' responsiveness to their demands? I find no effects of shared demographics btw. protesters and politicians, but asymmetric responsiveness to left-right policy preferences: gupea.ub.gu.se/handle/2077/...

What is the core difference between ‘left’ and ‘right’ in politics? New paper out in @ActaPolitica where I show that acceptance of inequality separates left- and right-wing individuals in both Eastern and Western Europe, contrary to previous research. link.springer.com/article/10.1... Polisky
