Coalition Government Survival Data for Multilevel Dependency Modeling

Ben Rosche of the Political Analysis Dataverse published this replication dataset in 2026 to address dependencies in coalition government research. It provides simulation and empirical data on coalition survival to validate a Multiple Membership Multilevel Model.

Use Cases

• Analyzing coalition government survival using the empirical application records
• Calculating party-specific effects across multiple coalition memberships
• Weighting party contributions to government outcomes using the provided covariate structures

Strengths

• Includes simulation data for Bayesian MCMC validation
• Provides empirical data on coalition government survival
• Designed for Multiple Membership Multilevel Model (MMMM) implementation

Limitations

• Specific column names and record counts are not provided in the metadata
• Geographic and temporal coverage of the empirical data is not explicitly stated
