“Who are these people?” Evaluating the demographic characteristics and political preferences of MTurk survey respondents (2015, unknown): “Researchers have used the results from MTurk surveys to answer a wide array of questions ranging from understanding the limitations of voters to exploring cognitive biases and the strengths of political arguments (Arceneaux, 2012; Grimmer et al., 2012; Huber et al., 2012).”
Preference Change in Competitive Political Environments (2016, background): “In a set of innovative experiments, Huber et al. (2012) find that an incumbent who does better than average over the last four quarters of his or her mandate is 6.5% more likely to be reelected.”
