Peer-Reviewed Publications
While the regional focus of my current research is the U.S., I have published papers that examine how collective experiences and emotions shape public opinion in the contexts of South Korea, Mexico, and the U.S. These studies show how collective experiences and emotions can facilitate informed public decisions and electoral accountability across different backgrounds and cultures.
