Can norm‐based information campaigns reduce corruption?

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Can norm‐based information campaigns reduce corruption? Such campaigns use messaging about how people typically behave (descriptive norms) or ought to behave (injunctive norms). Drawing on survey and lab experiments in Ukraine, we unpack and evaluate the distinct effects of these two types of social norms.

Multiple solutions of nonlinear fractional elliptic equations via Morse theory

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2017
This article concerns the existence and multiplicity of weak solutions of the nonlinear fractional elliptic problem. We extend some well known results of semilinear Laplacian equations to the nonlocal fractional setting. Using the variational methods

Why parties can benefit from promoting occupational diversity in legislatures: Experimental evidence from three countries

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.
Abstract How do legislators' occupational backgrounds shape their ability to advance policy? We argue that politicians with professional experience are perceived as more credible in their areas of expertise and can more effectively persuade voters and peers. We examine this argument in a series of experiments in three Western democracies.

Multiple solutions to fractional equations without the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Differential Equations, 2017
In this article we study a class of fractional Laplace equations which do not satisfy the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition (AR-condition). We establish the existence of three nontrivial solutions and of multiple sign changing solutions by using Morse ...

Existence and multiplicity of solutions for a class of superlinear p-Laplacian equations

open access: yesAdvances in Nonlinear Analysis
In this work, we investigate a class of pp-Laplacian equations with the Dirichlet boundary condition. Under some new conditions, the existence and multiplicity of nontrivial solutions are proved by means of the variational methods.
