Professor Duch's research focuses on responsibility attribution, incorporating elements of theory, experiments and analysis of public opinion. In 2008 he published an award-winning book, The Economic Vote, that demonstrates that citizens hold political parties accountable for economic outcomes. More recently Professor Duch has turned to experiments in order to identify the information shortcuts that individuals deploy for attributing responsibility for collective decision making. Duch is associate editor of the Journal of Experimental Political Science and the American Journal of Political Science since 2012.
