Research Interests

My primary graduate training was in three areas of American politics: political participation and voting behavior, linking institutions (parties, interest groups, media), and political psychology. I am currently working on research that explores the connections between prime-time television and political attitudes. My other research focus is on religion in politics, and particularly how the culture of smaller religious traditions, such as Judaism and Mormonism, affects their political attitudes and behavior.
