==='''The Political Sources of Ethnic Identification'''=== Competitiveness of a presidential election is a possible explanation for variations in the tendency of survey respondents to identify in ethnic terms. The authors provide the possible hypothesis that "''the strength of ethnic identity is dependent on the competitiveness of elections''" and have provided the followings analyses: :Initial evaluation of the data collected from the study reveals that neither proximity nor competitiveness has an impact on ethnic identifications :The aforementioned analysis is not reflective of the data, which revealed that variation within countries was generally limited, and even completely identical in four out of the ten countries studies. :::This prompted Eifert et. al to redirect their focus to emphasizing the interaction term between the proximity and competitiveness variables. :In doing so, data observations reveal that coefficients regarding the proximity and the interaction term are statistically significant.
