/ Dynamic Time Series Analysis Write a critical evaluation of John Spragues study, One Part Dominance in Legislatures Legislative Studies Quarterly, 6(2) 1982: 259-285. Assess such things as (1) the motivation for the investigation, (2) the conceptualization employed in the paper, (3) the formulation and interpretation of the difference equation model, (4) Spragues effort to establish the empirical accuracy of that formalism, and (5) the theoretical significance of the piece. (Any all or of these features of the paper can be discussed but everyone should address (3). It *is* acceptable to defend Spragues investigation by showing how it could be strengthened or placed on even stronger conceptual, analytical and (or) empirical footings. Either way, students shoul...
