Preliminaries; Contents; List of Tables and Figures; Acknowledgments; CHAPTER 1 Introduction; CHAPTER 2 Alternative Models of Issue Voting; CHAPTER 3 A Unified Model of Issue Voting: Proximity, Direction, and Intensity; CHAPTER 4 Comparing the Empirical Fit of the Directional and Proximity Models for Voter Utility Functions; CHAPTER 5 Empirical Model Fitting Using the Unified Model: Voter Utility; CHAPTER 6 Empirical Fitting of Probabilistic Models of Voter Choice in Two-Party Electorates; CHAPTER 7 Empirical Fitting of Probabilistic Models of Voter Choice in Multiparty Electorates.
The authors develop a unified model that incorporates voter motivations and assess its empirical predictions - for both voter choice and candidate strategy - in the US, Norway, and France. The analyses show that a combination of proximity, direction, discounting, and party ID are compatible with the mildly but not extremely divergent policies that are characteristic of many two-party and multiparty electorates.
