3/3 In addition to testing reputational explanations for voluntary accountability, the article also makes an important contribution in that it introduces a new original index of the independence of EU agencies that was developed (by Thijs) using Bayesian Factor Analysis.
1/3 Are you looking for something to read over the holidays? If (voluntary) accountability is your thing, this recently published article in @jepp_journal that I wrote together with my colleague and friend Thijs de Boer might be something for you.

2/3 The article tests reputational explanations for the voluntary account-giving of EU agencies in a quantitative manner. We find both media salience and principal neglect to be related to accountability-seeking behaviour.

@LCJacobs89@demorgen@frsFNRS@SciencePoULB Hoi Laura! Hoe definieer jij radicaal-links? Ben namelijk verbaasd om te zien dat je ook MP zien als een radicaal-linkse partij.
Don't forget to read @BenjaminTida's fascinating piece in 100(3) which fills an important prior existing hole in the accountability literature.

Happy to see this article out early view in @jepp_journal! Why are some agencies subject to more intense account-holding than others? Results of this study indicate that the public visibility of agencies drives account-holding intensity.
