Talk:Voting behavior

General note on this page and needed additions

Voting behavior is a widely studied topic, and this article stub is a work in progress. Socrates27 and I have been mainly contributing to the sections on this page that relate to the influence of affect on voting behavior; however, the topic of voting behavior is much broader and has a long history in the political science literature. Our hope is that others will help to flesh out other important areas of scholarship in this area, such as the pioneering "Columbia Studies", Downs' rationalist voter model, the so-called Michigan school of thought, and others. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joahero (talk • contribs) 16:20, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

Reporting on Feedback

1) Most of the literature sources are not listed on line. For those retrieved on the Internet there is provision of urls but in cases where the document was accessed on sites like Jstor, this kind of reference would not be helpful as access is not available for everyone. 2) Currently my colleague and I are expanding our knowledge on the topic but did not come across any "voting behavior types" classification. I will research some more and seek to update the article accordingly, if possible. Socrates 27 (talk) 20:56, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

Expanding the affective states section

Just added a few things on affective influence and realized I was not logged in. However, the additions look good. Will work on the last section shortly.Socrates 27 (talk) 20:55, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

Separate section for voting behavior

My colleague and I are currently take a psychology class and working on political behavior and we feel that the sub category on voting behavior in this article deserves an article on its own. We will go ahead and create a stub article, using the existing section on voting behavior. Within the next two week, we will be adding significant parts of the article.Socrates_27 13.51, 24 October 2012 (UTC)

Just a little bit proof-reading

Hi Guys! I just read your article! looks great really! however you might want to proof-read a little (I was going to do it myself but I guess it would be better if you do it yourself). Also add intext citations where you can! if encounter any problem just e-mail and ask :) Zoono92 (talk) 23:07, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

thank you

Thank you for the tip. We have adjusted a few things in the article and hope this makes it more user friendly. If you have any specific suggestions please advice and we will do our best to address them. Working on the intext citations at the moment. Many thanks for your comment Socrates 27 (talk) 21:25, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
