Are Less Affluent People Less Likely to Run for Political Office?

Swiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.
Abstract In almost all democracies, elected officials are better off than most of the citizens they represent. Recent research has shown that this descriptive misrepresentation is partly due to voter and party bias against less well‐off candidates. In this paper, we explore a third possible explanation: Are less affluent people less likely to run for ...

How the Electoral System Influences Personalization and Individual Campaign Spending: Evidence from Switzerland's First‐Time Finance Disclosure Regulations

Swiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Personalization—greater candidate‐centeredness at the expense of political parties—is a defining feature of 21st‐century electoral politics. But to what extent does the electoral system shape this trend? We develop a theoretical argument rooted in the design of open‐list proportional representation (OLPR).

Effect of repeated hot water immersion on cognitive performance, cerebrovascular function, sleep and biomarkers of neurodegeneration in older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing is associated with cognitive decline and increased risk of developing neurodegenerative disease. Repeated passive heating, using hot water immersion (HWI), may improve cognitive performance via improved cerebral oxygenation, but this is yet to be examined in older adults.

Quantifying skin microvascular function responses to distinct forms of heat stress in humans using optical coherence tomography

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Optical coherence tomography (OCT) enables visualization and quantification of the cutaneous microvasculature, yet no study has compared responses to distinct forms of heating in humans. We hypothesized that local skin heating (LH) would evoke larger responses in microvascular diameter, velocity, flow and density than passive whole‐body ...
