Contest Study to Promote Political Civility

Political partisans in the United States have become increasingly hostile toward one another, resulting in political tension and gridlock. As such, several groups (e.g. Civil Politics, the Asteroids Club, the Village Square) have attempted to devise strategies and events to help ameliorate these problems and promote civil interactions between Republicans/conservatives and Democrats/liberals. This study will pit various interventions aimed at reducing partisan hostility (many inspired by actions by the aforementioned groups) against one another in order to determine their relative effectiveness.

美国政治派别之间的对立情绪日益加剧，导致政治紧张和僵局。鉴于此，多个团体（例如公民政治、小行星俱乐部、村庄广场）试图制定策略和活动，以期缓解这些问题并促进共和党/保守派与民主党/自由派之间的文明互动。本研究将通过比较旨在减少派别敌意的各种干预措施（许多灵感来源于上述团体采取的行动），以确定其相对有效性。
