Fred Cutler (Ph.D. Michigan) does research in public opinion, elections, federalism, and political psychology. He is also an educational technology leader and a startup founder who teaches courses based on teamwork. Fred insists that you call him Fred, whoever you are. Fred has published in POQ, JOP, BJPolS, CJPS, Publius, Political Geography, Electoral Studies, and has chapters in various edited volumes. A recent research project involves lab experiments to understand the effects of different numbers of political parties on voters and their satisfaction with democracy (electoraldemocracy.com). He received SSHRCC funding on a project called Polls and Elections. His earlier research focused on the effect of federalism on political behaviour and government accountability. Much of his work has investigated the influence of the local social and economic environment on how people think about politics. Fred was one of four investigators on the Canadian Election Study 2011 and 2015, the flagship academic survey on Canadian public opinion and voting behaviour.
