This is a scholarly journal article. Bartling, Baybeck, Kinsey, and Peterson (2010) base their own research upon a previously established hypothesis called the cost orientation hypothesis. Alongside this, they base their exploration on a 2002 voter turnout study.

It is due to the fact that it tested it's hypothesis, by using two different groups. The researchers used their own research rather than piggybacking it off another study already published. According to Enyedi, "But VAAs do seem to have the power to consolidate or undermine party preferences." (Enyedi, 2016. p. 1000).

It examines research to back and conclude on their claim that  if change in election rules can make citizens more trusting is overstated. They use other research and analysis of other study's trends to find a correlation. (Bowler and Donovan, 2012)
