New pub at @The_JOP with @zhaoliresearch. We started this project in 2020, so it's been six calendar years in the making. The paper feels like an old friend who stood by my side through the days. Will post a summary soon. Thanks to awesome coauthor Zhao. https://t.co/KEXgKxDO5q

We streamlined six new DID-like estimators and created this tutorial for implementation in R. https://t.co/54xluMPWRF Hope you no longer need to spend months figuring out what these estimators are and how to use them. w/ @liuziyi233

We are deeply grateful to the many colleagues and teachers who provided constructive feedback on earlier drafts. We also thank the anonymous reviewers and editors @PoPpublicsphere for their important support and insightful suggestions which further improved the paper.

Our results show that economic inequality is the most likely factor driving these diverging preferences among regime opponents in China. Additionally, in this paper, we introduce a new indirect questioning survey design - a modified crosswise model - that enables researchers to

Three scope conditions of this gender-based difference in compliance: 1) patrilineal society; 2) no explicit behavioral dictates from those in power; 3) subjects in public-facing positions (e.g., teachers, street-level bureaucrats).

Prior studies suggest that uncertainty of what behavior incurs punishment leads all risk-averse subjects to self censor. Our results indicate not all individuals self censor to mitigate risk of uncertainty - gender socialization affects censorship and shapes political conformity.

Evidence suggests these divergent behaviors stem from gender-based socialization experiences: women express compliance by trying to persuade students to accept the CCP’s position using open dialogues, while men comply by being assertive and suppressing opposition viewpoints.

Using a global survey with an embedded experiment, we show that these broad regime objectives motivate women to conduct uncensored discussions with host country students about Taiwan’s sovereignty, but the same objectives lead men to censor classroom discussion of Taiwan.

Using interviews, primary documents, and in-person observation, we find that the Chinese regime sets broad objectives (defend national interests, create a positive image of China) to CI teachers but does not specify how to pursue these goals behaviorally.

Focusing on Confucius Institute (CI) teachers who are given broad political objectives, we find that women and men use divergent behaviors to express compliance to the Chinese regime.

Happy to see “Gender and Political Compliance under Authoritarian Rule” (w/ @jenjpan, @yingjie_fan) out @cps_journal! When autocrats do not impose explicit rules of behavior, what does political compliance look like? https://t.co/bu9d5CzaFq

"Does ideology influence hiring in China?" with @ttzhang107 is out. For the first time since the 1970s, employees of China's public & private enterprises are required to study political ideology. How does this renewed emphasis on ideology affect economic opportunity?
