Given the partisan divisions in American politics today, any meaningful explanation of collective opinion should account for the role that partisanship plays in the dynamics of public opinion. Gregory E. McAvoy collects original data and develops a much needed model of information processing that explicitly accounts for the impact of partisanship on collective opinion.
