Aggregated V-Dem country expert ratings whether members of the legislature usually vote together with other members of their party. Lower values indicate less cohesion, higher values suggest stronger cohesion.
Coding rules
Ordinal ratings were aggregated to interval scale applying V-Dem's measurement model (Pemstein et al. 2021). Experts were asked "Is it normal for members of the legislature to vote with other members of their party on important bills?" and the ordinal wordings of the question were (Coppedge et al. 2021, 95):
- 0: Not really. Many members are elected as independents and party discipline is very weak.
- 1: More often than not. Members are more likely to vote with their parties than against them, but defections are common.
- 2: Mostly. Members vote with their parties most of the time.
- 3: Yes, absolutely. Members vote with their parties almost all the time.
