author = "David Doherty",
note = "Representatives face clear incentives to respond to district preferences. I report findings from a series of experiments that examine whether the public understands these incentives and rewards representatives who respond to them. The findings show that although many people say they want legislators to prioritize national preferences, when evaluating instances of legislators' behavior they recognize the institutionally prescribed incentives representatives face and reward legislators who prioritize their districts.",
