Abstract
Chapter 3 demonstrates how partisanship affects preferences—policy preferences, preferences for compromise, and preferences for things that are not expressly political. The analyses presented in this chapter suggest not only that partisan-motivated reasoning exists, but that it has found its way into the public psyche on policy issues, system values, and even seemingly inane everyday non-political preferences. The findings suggest several important takeaways: First, party identification can drive policy preferences and that it is not always the other way around. Second, partisan policy preferences on policy issues like the minimum wage and foreign intervention change to align with the parties’ positions. Third, being a member of the party that is in the minority in the legislature is more likely to lead to ideological entrenchment than a desire for bipartisanship. And fourth, learning about the food preferences of partisan elites changes the way partisans rate these items.
