Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, 2024.

Partisanship is the most important force in American public opinion and political behavior, making partisan socialization critical to understanding American political psychology. While scholars agree that partisanship is a social identity (Campbell et al. 1960) with social origins (Niemi and Jennings, 1968), how partisanship shapes, and is shaped by, our social networks remains underexplored. This dissertation consists of three projects that illuminate the interplay between social networks and party identity. The first project explores how two personality traits, open-mindedness and agreeableness, affect our proclivity for associating with people who share our party identity, a phenomenon I refer to as partisan homophily. I find that open-minded and agreeable people are less politically homophilic, but for different reasons. Open-minded people tend to be less avoidant of members of the other party but just as likely to terminate relationships with out-partisans as close-minded people. Meanwhile, agreeable people tend not to end relationships over politics, but whether they avoid out-partisans is unclear. The second project focuses on networks and affective polarization, the extent to which one harbors warmer feelings for their own party relative to the other. Leveraging panel data of incoming college students, I find affectively polarized entering freshman tend to build more homophilic networks, and, in turn, these homophilic networks lead people to become more affectively polarized. Using the same data, the final project illustrates that strong partisans tend to build more reinforcing networks, and that partisanship strengthens in homophilic networks. Together, this dissertation enriches our understanding of partisan socialization.
