"Interpretations of Topbot as measuring perceived income decile or subjective social status ... are untenable, and empirical claims made on these bases should be revisited."
Important intervention relevant to many ppl studying the origins of political party support.

"Consonant with findings of low reliability and high, non-random non-response when a “Don’t know” option is available, the interviews highlight that Topbot is worded ambiguously, leading to varied interpretations and often puzzlement."

How do respondents interpret the classic ISSP ladder question that is usually deemed to measure subjective social status?
In a whole heap of different ways, according to Lewis Anderson @dspi-oxford.bsky.social

How to Make a Functionalist Argument
Article: How to Make a Functionalist Argument | Sociological Science | Posted August 14, 2025
I am a huge fan of "what is this kind of argument and how can you do it right?" papers. I collect them and I've tried to write a couple, and think they can be tremendously useful especially for teaching. A new, useful addition to this set just arrived from @sociologicalsci.bsky.social:
