SPECIFIC PUBLIC POLICIES Q-Dem studies the implications of automation, digitalisation and the introduction of artificial intelligence in the workplace. One of Q-Dem's projects measures the use of specific technologies and artificial intelligence in companies and public administrations. Q-Dem assesses the implications of AI on political attitudes and labour market productivity. One of Q-Dem's projects aims to understand citizens' views on AI through a survey. Regulation of specific issues SPECIFIC PUBLIC POLICIES Q-Dem has developed specific case studies on various issues such as the regulation of moral issues – abortion, same-sex marriage, assisted reproduction techniques and stem cells – food safety, pharmaceutical policy, cooperation and development policy, corruption, the regulation of transparency and basic income. These case studies analyse different issues related to the dynamics of the agenda and the capacity of different actors in the political system to process information and make decisions in different political contexts. Political agenda SPECIFIC PUBLIC POLICIES One of Q-Dem's goals is to explain the dynamics of the political agenda, i.e. how and why the actors in the political system prioritise issues in comparative perspective. To this end, Q-Dem has created databases that allow us to analyse the agenda of the Prime Minister of Spain and his Government, the agenda of parliamentary groups, members of parliament, political parties and the agenda of the written press in Spain over the past few decades. These databases provide detailed information on the problems that the Spanish Prime Ministers discuss in their inaugural speeches and their State of the Nation addresses, the Government's legislative proposals based on bills, the issues that are the object of attention in parliamentary sessions aimed at controlling the Government's action, the legislative proposals of the parliamentary groups, the news published on the front pages of El País and El Mundo and the issues that citizens identify as most important (see the section on databases for more information). On the basis of this data, we analyse issues related to agenda dynamics, parliamentary behaviour and political representation.
