I use experiments to study elections and democracy, and on how voters and parties react (and proact) to democratic institutions. I also sometimes try to contribute to methodological discussions in the social sciences, particularly those around surveys and experiments.
I've published more than 40 articles on these topics. Below is a selection of the 10 that I like the most and that are the most representative of my research interests. For a complete list of publications, see here.
