Thesis (Ph.D.)--Rutgers The State University of New Jersey - New Brunswick, 2005.

After presenting a typology of unrecorded legislative activities (ULAs), activities most often done in non-public settings and which are not made part of a readily quantifiable record that reveals a member's position on a particular policy matter (or series of matters), I produce evidence that legislators, especially those interested in functioning as "the adult supervision" of the House, are deeply aware of how they are perceived by their colleagues. As a consequence, their decisions to do (or not to do) ULAs are frequently driven and, at the same time, constrained by non-substantive, reputation-related calculations. Their objective is to achieve a reputation for "professionalism in lawmaking" (which I deem to function as a "master norm") and thus to gain increased influence within the House. This is a variation on Richard Hall's arguments that members focus their efforts on legislation in which they are interested, and that "prescriptive and proscriptive" norms no longer (if they ever did) exert powerful influence in the House.
