Replication data for: The Interplay of Partisanship and Ideology: A Time-Series Analysis

Somewhat less attention has been devoted to trends in ideological identification, although such research has been on the increase. However, the potential relationship between macropartisanship and macroideology remains largely unexamined.

We use alternative methodologies to test whether shifts in macropartisanship have occurred independently, of, along with, before, or after shifts in macroideology. We examine the time series properties of the two series, which provides insight into their persistence and memory. Our framework provides a flexible approach to studying short- and long-run behavior, and the evidence is consistently at variance with the idea that there is a relationship between macroideology and macropartisanship.
