Journalist’s Resource: “Author Bryce Dietrich, an assistant professor of political science at the University of Iowa, analyzed the biggest video collection of the U.S. House of Representatives ever used in political science research — 1,413 hours, about two months’ worth of video, covering January 1997 to December 2012. The clips are overhead shots from cable network C-SPAN showing representatives’ movements about the chamber.”
“Dietrich found representatives have physically crossed the aisle less and less to interact with opposing colleagues over time since the late 1990s.”
