She measured military effort as the "share of the gross national product" for the military (e.g., weapons, training, stationing troops), right-wing party success by the percent of votes going to right-wing political parties in both national and local elections, and nationalist beliefs by attitude data from each nation. Data for the share of the gross national product came from the International Labor Organization; data for right-wing party power and nationalist attitudes came from previous studies by other
