Replication Data for: Teamwork within a Senior Capstone Course: Implementation and Assessment
While senior capstone courses and projects are growing in popularity for undergraduate students in political science globally, with the potential to integrate prior curriculum and assess student learning, students generally undertake this milestone as individuals. In contrast, we present a teamwork-based capstone course wherein key student submissions—including the final project—are created in teams. Having conducted this course for several years, we share how we incorporated teamwork into this course and demonstrate how students evaluate teamwork in in-person, online, and hybrid course formats
Charting and explaining political attitude change: a panel based on the European social survey
Göç Çalışmalarında Büyük Veri: Etik Değerlendirmeler
ABSTRACT: The current study initiates a discussion on the ethical dilemmas inherent in big data research within the domain of migration studies. It encourages a conversation regarding the guiding principles that researchers should uphold for the responsible utilization of data. As such, the study focuses on the challenges migration researchers face in designing, conducting, and disseminating their research findings. Accordingly, this study raises considerations related to the privacy of both individuals and groups, as well as to the creation and exacerbation of inequalities and power asymmetries. It also emphasizes the crucial role that migration researchers can play in establishing ethical standards for big data research.ÖZET: Bu çalışma, göç çalışmaları alanında gerçekleştirilen büyük veri araştırmalarında karşılaşılan etik zorluklara odaklanmakta ve verinin sorumlu bir şekilde kullanımı için izlenmesi gereken ilkeler hakkında bir diyaloğa katkı sunmayı amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmada göç araştırmacılarının çalışmalarını tasarlama, yürütme ve bulgularını yayma süreçlerinde karşılaştıkları zorluklara odaklanılmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, çalışmada araştırmacıların birey ve grup gizliliği ile güç dengesizliklerinin arttırımı ve yeni eşitsizliklerin yaratılmasına ilişkin etik sorumlukları olmalıdır. Çalışmada ayrıca göç araştırmacılarının büyük veri araştırmaları için etik standartların belirlenmesindeki kritik rolü vurgulanmaktadır

Developing a Multidimensional Measure for Understanding Refugee Integration in Protracted Displacement Contexts: Evidence from Turkey
<p>The debates on durable solutions for refugees takes place in the absence of well-designed measures for monitoring and assessing integration processes in protracted displacement contexts. Addressing this gap, this study develops a multidimensional measure of refugee integration by introducing conceptual modifications to the key components of immigrant integration framework offered by Ager and Strang (J Refug Stud 21(2):166-191, 2008. https://doi.org/10.1093/jrs/fen016). Leveraging survey data from 1630 Syrian refugees in Turkey, a typical forced migration context in the Global South, this study employs a structural equation modeling approach to capture the multifaceted refugee integration process. The proposed multidimensional construct contributes to research into immigrant integration in two significant ways. Firstly, the proposed measurement model overcomes the limitations of aggregative/compensative models commonly used to assess integration outcomes by also enabling the examination of relationships between various domains of integration. Secondly, by acknowledging the precarity inherent in forced migration contexts in the Global South, the multidimentional measure facilitates the monitoring and assessment of refugee integration in protracted displacement contexts. The proposed measurement model facilitates a nuanced understanding of the relationships among conceptual dimensions of the multifaceted integration process and offers a methodologically sound tool for comparison of integration outcomes across refugee groups and over time in protracted displacement contexts of the Global South.</p>
Political Trust and Sophistication: Taking Measurement Seriously
Political trust is an important indicator of political legitimacy. Hence, seemingly decreasing levels of political trust in Western democracies have stimulated a growing body of research on the causes and consequences of political trust. However, the neglect of potential measurement problems of political trust raises doubts about the findings of earlier studies. The current study revisits the measurement of political trust and re-examines the relationship between political trust and sophistication in the Netherlands by utilizing European Social Survey (ESS) data across five time points and four-wave panel data from the Panel Component of ESS. Our findings illustrate that high and low political sophistication groups display different levels of political trust even when measurement characteristics of political trust are taken into consideration. However, the relationship between political sophistication and political trust is weaker than it is often suggested by earlier research. Our findings also provide partial support for the argument that the gap between sophistication groups is widening over time. Furthermore, we demonstrate that, although the between-method differences between the latent means and the composite score means of political trust for high- and low sophistication groups are relatively minor, it is important to analyze the measurement characteristics of the political trust construct
