“…What we actually find is that in several cases-such as perceptual/cognitive rigidity and dogmatism- they are quite a bit stronger than previous reviews suggested. The evidence also controverts the suggestion that ideological differences in epistemic motivation are confined to subjective, self-report measures (Jussim et al, 2016;Kahan, 2016;Van Hiel et al, 2010). On the contrary, there is now a good deal of evidence based on objective, behavioral measures of cognitive style-on tests of perceptual and cognitive rigidity as well as "cognitive reflection"-and the conclusions are virtually the same.…”

“…Research in this area has also garnered some legitimate criticism on scientific grounds. Some of the more thoughtful questions and criticisms have come from members of ISPP, including the following: 1)What about rigidity of the left, especially in Central/Eastern Europe, given its history of dogmatic leadership and totalitarian socialism (Golec de Zavala, & Van Bergh, ; Greenberg & Jonas, )? 2)Are needs to reduce uncertainty and threat associated with authoritarianism—or ideological extremism in general—rather than political conservatism per se (Crowson, Thoma, & Hestevold, ; Greenberg & Jonas, ; van Prooijen, Krouwel, Boiten, & Eendebak, )? 3)Aren't the psychological correlates of social versus economic conservatism very different from one another (Crowson, ; Feldman & Johnston, ; Malka, Soto, Inzlicht, & Lelkes, )? 4)Could it be that the “true” effect sizes between psychological and political variables are much weaker than Jost et al () suggested (Jussim et al, ; Van Hiel et al, )? 5)Aren't ideological differences confined to subjective, self‐report measures that mean little when it comes to actual behavior (Kahan, ; Van Hiel et al, )? 6)Aren't liberals just as biased as conservatives when it comes to motivated social cognition (Conway et al, ; Crawford, ; Kahan, ), and just as prejudiced, too (Brandt, Reyna, Chambers, Crawford, & Wetherell, ; Chambers, Schlenker, & Collisson, )? …”

“…One such culprit is confirmation bias, which refers to the tendency to seek and interpret evidence so as to support one's pre-existing intuitions (Nickerson, 1998; see also Chapter 15). Together, in much the same way as researchers' political beliefs can unintentionally bias their interpretation of evidence -a propensity dubbed questionable i nterpretive practice (Jussim, Crawford, Anglin, Stevens, & Duarte, 2016) -these factors tempt researchers away from reporting methods and results in their entirety, "warts" and all.
