TY - JOUR U1 - Zeitschriftenartikel, wissenschaftlich - nicht begutachtet (unreviewed) A1 - Koplenig, Alexander T1 - Autocorrelated errors explain the apparent relationship between disapproval of the US Congress and prosocial language N2 - Frimer et al. (2015) claim that there is a linear relationship between the level of prosocial language and the level of public disapproval of US Congress. A re-analysis demonstrates that this relationship is the result of a misspecified model that does not account for first-order autocorrelated disturbances. A Stata script to reproduce all presented results is available as an appendix.
