title: Guatemala, El Salvador and Nicaragua (2012): TRaC study on IUD and modern methods of contraception among women. Second Round.

description: This study is for the second wave of the TRaC Survey, providing information for the Women's Health Project (WHP), the Salin Project, and Dutch Bilateral Project. It will measure on a representative sample of women in reproductive age the level of opportunity, ability and motivation (OAM) related to IUD/modern contraceptive use and other indicators, and compare them against a baseline survey conducted in 2010. The results will help evaluate whether the family planning program(s) at PASMO are having an effect on mayor indicators of interest: positive IUD/Modern contraption OAM, etc. (See appendix 8 for TRaC indicators). The survey aims to answer the following research questions. In terms of monitoring: Whether there have been any changes on IUD/Modern Contraceptive Use OAM factors from 2010 to 2012? (El Salvador, Guatemala,
& Nicaragua: WHP Project). What type of family planning services (private, public, other) women use (measured at last time a provider was consulted) (El Salvador, Guatemala, & Nicaragua: SALIN Project). Whether there has been any change in the level of awareness about HIV and cervical cancer and in women's preventive actions? (Dutch Bilateral) In terms of evaluation: Whether any observed change in indicators of interest is associated to PSI/PASMO program? (El Salvador, Guatemala,
& Nicaragua: WHP Project).

title: Ethiopia (2015): Evaluation of Iodine Deficiency Disorders Control Universal Salt Iodization Communication Project in selcted regions of Ethiopia.

description: With the Project Cooperation Agreement with United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF), PSI/Ethiopia has implemented health and nutrition communication projects in different phases. The first communication project on promotion of Iodized salt was undertaken between March 2009 to December 2010; and the second from March 2013- June 2014; and the third from November 2014 to May, 2015. On the verge of the completion of the third phase, UNICEF and PSI/E would like to see the contribution of the intervention in increasing the uptake of iodized salt in Ethiopia, and its communication message effectiveness. Thus, the proposed progress evaluation aims to cover the last two phases of the project (since December/2010). Study targets are consumers(mothers/caregivers of under five children), salt producers, suppliers, and health care providers It has four objectives: 1. To assess effectiveness of the multi -channelled social and behavioral change intervention. 2. Assess efficiency and sustainability of the project response from the perspective of the project targets 3. To assess contribution of the project in the improvement of coverage
& quality of use of Iodized salt. 4. To document main lessons learn and propose recommendations for future intervention.

title: Unemployment Benefits and Financial Leverage in an Agent Based Macroeconomic Model [Dataset]

description: This paper is aimed at investigating the effects of government intervention through unemployment benefits on macroeconomic dynamics in an agent based decentralized matching framework. The major result is that the presence of such a public intervention in the economy stabilizes the aggregate demand and the financial conditions of the system at the cost of a modest increase of both the inflation rate and the ratio between public deficit and nominal GDP. The successful action of the public sector is sustained by the central bank which is committed to buy outstanding government securities.

title: Replication data for: Nonresponse and Mode Effects in Self and Interviewer Administered Surveys

description: We examine the quality of two probability based polls, one interviewer administered (telephone) and one self administered (Internet and mail mixed mode survey). The polls use the same sampling frame (registered voters) and the same questions. First, we examine the representativeness of both surveys using information known about the population, and although we find important differences between the two in terms of sampling and nonresponse bias, we also find that both surveys represent the underlying population despite low response rates. We also test for mode effects between surveys due to social desirability and how it influences nondifferentiation or satisficing. Using a variety of methods (t-tests, multivariate regression and genetic propensity matching) we find evidence that the presence of an interviewer alters response patterns on ego-driven questions. The implications of our work are important, due to the increasing popularity of mixed mode surveys. Researchers need to be methodologically sensitive to these differences when analyzing surveys that allow for different response modes.

title: One for All? State Violence and Insurgent Cohesion

description: What effect does state violence have on the cohesiveness and fragmentation of insurgent organizations? This article develops a theory on the consequences of state violence against civilians for insurgent cohesion and fragmentation in civil war. It argues that the state-led collective targeting of an armed group’s alleged civilian constituency increases the probability of insurgent fragmentation, defined as the process through which insurgent organizations split into distinct entities, each with its own social composition, goals, and leadership. This effect is driven by the interaction of several mechanisms at the individual, group, and organizational level: State-led collective targeting increases the risk of insurgent fragmentation by enlarging the supply of fresh recruits, by strengthening the bonds between immediate group members (interpersonal cohesion), and by disrupting intra-organizational coordination, strategic unity, and institutional arrangements that underpin the commitment of individual fighters to the organization as a whole (ideological cohesion). The implications of this argument are empirically tested in an analysis of armed groups fighting against their governments between 1946 and 2008. The results suggest that campaigns of massive state violence directed against the civilian constituency of rebel groups increase the overall risk of insurgent fragmentation, a finding that has important implications for the duration and escalation of civil wars.

title: Is China a Status Quo or Revisionist State? Leadership Travel as an Empirical Indicator of Foreign Policy Priorities

description: China's rising power and increased global activism have attracted increasing attention, with particular focus on whether a stronger China is likely to be a revisionist or status quo state. Power transition theory highlights the potential for a dissatisfied rising power to challenge the existing international order, but it is difficult to evaluate whether a rising power is dissatisfied. Where Chinese leaders choose to travel can offer insights into whether China's behavior is more consistent with that of a revisionist or status quo state and into China's broader diplomatic priorities. We present a series of expectations concerning how the travel patterns of a challenger state are likely to differ from the travel patterns of a status quo state. Using a newly compiled data set, we then analyze the correlates of travel abroad by top Chinese leaders from 1998 to 2008. Our results are more consistent with a status quo conceptualization of China, though there are some important exceptions such as willingness to travel to rogue states. We also use travel data to test other hypotheses about Chinese foreign policy behavior.

title: Replication Data for: Ready When the Big One Comes? Natural Disasters and Mass Support for Preparedness Investment

description: Societies can address collective threats such as natural disasters or pandemics by investing in preparedness (ex ante) or by offering compensation after an adverse event has occurred (ex post). What explains which of these options voters prefer? We study how personal exposure and policy knowledge affect mass support for long-term disaster preparedness, a type of long-term investment meant to cope with an increasingly destructive and frequent class of events. We first assess whether support for preparedness reflects personal experience and find that neither subjective nor geo-coded measures of disaster exposure predict policy preferences. Second, we explore whether this finding can be explained by misperceptions about the features of the available policy options. We find that revealing the damage reductions associated with preparedness strongly reduces opposition to long-term investment. These results suggest that opposition to preparing for collective threats may depend more on informational deficiencies than on personal experience with realized risks.

title: Modelling the role of algae in rice crop nutrition and soil organic carbon maintenance

description: Photosynthetic aquatic biomass (PAB - algae and other floodwater flora) is a significant source of organic carbon (C) in rice-based cropping systems. A portion of PAB is capable of fixing nitrogen (N), and is hence also a source of N for crop nutrition. To account for this phenomenon in long term simulation studies of rice-based cropping systems, the APSIM modelling framework was modified to include new descriptions of biological and chemical processes responsible for loss and gain of C and N in rice floodwater. We used well-tested algorithms from CERES-Rice, together with new conceptualizations for algal dynamics, in modelling the contribution of PAB to maintenance of soil organic C and soil N-supplying capacity in ricebased cropping systems. We demonstrate how our new conceptualization of PAB growth, turnover, and soil incorporation in flooded rice systems facilitates successful simulation of long-term soil fertility trials, such as the IRRI Long Term Continuous Cropping Experiment (35+ years), from the perspectives of both soil organic carbon levels and yield maintenance. Previous models have been unable to account for the observed maintenance of soil organic C in these systems, primarily due to ignoring inputs from PAB as a source of C. The performance of long-term rice cropping system simulations, with and without inclusion of t
hese inputs, is shown to be radically different. Details of our modifications to APSIM are presented, together with evidence that the model is now a useful tool to investigate sustainability issues associated with management change in rice-based cropping systems.

title: Symposium: Culture and Otherness in Principal-Agent Theory

description: [This is a post-publication review symposium] This symposium invites reflections on Eric Rittinger’s article “Arming the Other: American Small Wars, Local Proxies, and the Social Construction of the Principal-Agent Problem” (2017). Rittinger seeks to combine insights from rationalist principal-agent theory with the dynamics of identity relations as investigated principally by constructivist scholars, and to utilize this combination as a way of explaining variations in how the United States recruited and managed local actors to fight its wars by proxy. As such his article aims to make both a theoretical and an empirical contribution.

Empirically, Rittinger argues that how the United States recruited and utilized local proxies depended on the particular way that the “otherness” of those proxies was understood. Accounts of selves and others shaped the strategies that the U.S. put in place, and those strategies cannot be explained without paying careful attention to the narratives of difference that he locates in the archival material he utilizes. In particular, Rittinger argues, changing characterizations of local proxies—as either biologically or culturally flawed—led to different interpretations of the potential problems in controlling those proxies, and thus led officials to adopt different approaches to mitigating those problems, ranging from outright paternalism to less direct tutelage.

Theoretically, Rittinger rethinks principal-agent theory through a broadly constructivist lens. The problem of managing agents who have been retained in order to carry out the principal’s task is Rittinger’s point of departure, but he does not follow a rationalist road from that point. Instead of looking to ex ante specifications of strategic interests and deriving potential solutions from there, he examines the ways that situated social actors conceptualized and enframed the situations in which they found themselves, and use those narratives as the basis for his analysis. In this way, the piece also explores the persistence of techniques of marginalization even as foreign fighters are acting on behalf of a patron state. These cultural aspects of war shape the ways that violence is practiced in a stratified, hierarchal international arena.

In his contribution to this symposium, Tarak Barkawi argues that Rittinger does not go far enough in a sociological direction. Barkawi suggests that Rittinger focuses too much on the unidirectional construction of the local proxies by the United States, and as such does not sufficiently get away from the essentialist framing of orthodox principal-agent theory. By contrast, Srdjan Vucetic suggests that Rittinger’s article opens new vistas in the study of “racialized security contracting,” and wonders about Rittinger’s dichotomy of biological versus cultural alterity. Alexandra Gheciu concurs, and argues that it might be more productive to think of these as competing discourses of alterity, and to trace actual policy outcomes to the dynamics of that competition. Rittinger then responds to his interlocutors.
