    • (Can we date this quote?), Erik R. Tillman, “Authoritarianism and Support for Populist Radical Right Parties”, in DePaul University[1], pages 8-9:
      I use data from several recent academic national surveys: the 2013 Austrian Election Study (AES), British Election Study Panel Survey (BES) conducted in January 2014 (from which I include respondents living in England), and the German Longitudinal Election Study (GLES) wave conducted in May 2013. [] These questions measuring RWA (or what I would term “authoritarian values”) are available in the BES data.
