#' @title Party System Nationalization Score

#' @description Party System Nationalization Score Mainwaring and Jones (2003) and Chhibber and Kollman (2004)
#'
#' @param tidy_data data.frame that contains the following variables with these names:
#'    \itemize{
#'             \item{\code{election}: year of election.}
#'             \item{\code{unit}: the unit of analysis (province, department ...)}
#'             \item{\code{party}: name of the political parties that obtain votes.}
#'             \item{\code{votes}: votes obtained by each party.}
#'             \item{\code{votes_nac}: votes at national level for each party.}
#'            }
#'    If the data is not structured in this way you can order it with: \code{\link{convert_esaps}}.
#'
#' @param method Method to calculate Party System Nationalization Score:
#'     \itemize{
#'             \item{\code{method = "Mainwaring and Jones"} or \code{method = 1}.}
#'             \item{\code{method = "Chhibber and Kollman"} or \code{method = 2}.}
#'             }
#'
#' @param pns by default it is \code{FALSE}. If \code{TRUE}, the Party Nationalization Score
#'     is calculated. In method, you must indicate: \code{method = 1}.
#'
#' @param scale By default it is \code{100}, the indices will vary between 0 and 100.
#'     If \code{scale = 1} the variation will be between 0 and 1.
#'
#'
#'
#' @return if \code{pns = FALSE,} return data.frame.
#'
#'     if \code{pns = TRUE}, return a list with two data.frame.
#'     \itemize{
#'             \item{\code{list[[1]]}} {PSNS: Party System Nationalization Score}
#'             \item{\code{list[[2]]}} {PNS: Party Nationalization Score}
