  1. Outcome = country has at least one migration institute (M1, binary indicator), number of migration institutes in countries (M2, range from 0 to 31), total number of researchers in migration institutes in country (M3, range from 2 to 1420), median number of researchers in migration institutes in country (M4, range from 2 to 69). Shown is the median of the posterior as coefficients, with the median absolute deviation (MAD) as a measure of uncertainty in brackets. Net migration as a share of the population. Minority representation is a binary indicator, measuring whether members of ethnic minority groups are represented in national legislatures. N = 183 observations in M1, N = 53 for M2 to M4 (only countries with institutes). Priors are default Normal(0, 2.5) scaled to the data
