My research focuses on how differences in political context across countries and over time impact the political behaviors of citizens operating in those contexts. I examine the linkage between macro-level contexts and micro-level individual behaviors, and so it touches on various themes in political behavior, public opinion, and political institutions. I am also interested in conducting survey research and exploring cutting-edge survey tools to answer various political science questions. More recently, I expand my research interest to politics and gender.
