In the best-performing models, the forecasting error fell from 4.6% to 3.2%. The findings have been published in Populations and Economics.

HSE Researchers Discover Who Eats Out in Russia-And Why
Around one-third of Russians (31.3%) rarely eat out or buy ready-made meals. The core group of active consumers—those who eat out or purchase prepared food almost every day or several times a week—accounts for only about 9% of the population. These are the findings of a study conducted by the HSE Institute for Social Policy. According to the researchers eating out is no longer a marker of high social status in Russia.

Restoring trust in truth-seekers: Effects of op/eds defending journalism and justice

Plos One. 2021. Vol. 16. No. 5. Article e0251284.
Pingree R., Santia M., Bryanov K., Watson B.

A healthy democracy requires trust that people can be impartial in important truth-seeking institutions including journalism, justice, and science. Recently some U.S. elites have adopted alarmingly extreme rhetoric against truth-seekers, denouncing mainstream journalism as fake news, criminal investigations as partisan witch-hunts, climate science as a hoax, and career civil servants as a deep state conspiracy. In response, some news organizations have taken the unusual step of publishing op/eds defending these institutions. Two experiments tested effects of such op/eds. In study 1, participants spent twelve days using a purpose-built news portal containing real, timely news with random assignment to the availability of real, timely op/eds defending impartiality of truth-seekers. These op/eds increased trust in truth-seeking institutions and increased the belief that people can serve as impartial professionals. Study 2 replicated this with a laboratory experiment assigning video op/ed exposure instead of text op/ed availability while adding several outcomes.

Reassessing Racial Differences in Authoritarianism in the United States: Measurement Invariance and Group Comparisons using the ANES Child-Rearing Values Scale
Fabrício M Fialho, Public Opinion Quarterly 2026 P. 1–18

Previous studies argue that authoritarianism between Blacks and Whites in the United States cannot be compared due to the lack of measurement invariance in the American National Election Studies child-rearing values index. This paper challenges this claim. I analyze ANES data from 1992 to ...
