Patrick is a Ramón y Cajal Fellow at the Institute of Public Goods and Policies (IPP) at the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC). Before joining IPP-CSIC, Patrick has worked as an associate professor in political science at Carlos III University of Madrid, as well as an assistant professor in political science at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, where he organized the Experimental Politics Lab. Patrick received his PhD in political science from Stony Brook University. His research focuses on the psychological underpinnings of political attitudes, reasoning, and behavior. Patrick is especially interested in the development and application of new statistical methods in the area of political psychology. For example, he uses quantitative text analysis to study how citizens discuss and justify their political preferences and beliefs in open-ended survey responses as well as online discussions. His work has been published in the American Political Science Review, the Journal of Politics, the British Journal of Political Science, and Political Science Research and Methods, among others.
