“…It is unclear if our findings obtained with student data would also emerge in nationally representative samples. Vasilopoulos and Jost (2020) found that openness to experience-a construct conceptually similar to aspects of social flexibility-predicts populist attitudes in a French random sample; hence, there is reason for optimism. Although Straus (2009) demonstrated that student data do accurately reflect between-country differences, a much more comprehensive international test using representative data should be conducted.…”

“…Thus, populist attitudes are a new domain of inquiry in the social sciences (see Rooduijn, 2019), and populism scholars have called for more interdisciplinary work with social and political psychology (Abromeit, 2017;Rensmann, 2017). Recently, a burgeoning interdisciplinary literature has linked populist attitudes with psychological characteristics like social values (Norris & Inglehart, 2019), personality traits (Vasilopoulos & Jost, 2020), and collective narcissism (Marchlewska et al, 2018).…”

“…In addition to the Netherlands (Geurking, Zaslove, Sluiter, & Jacobs, 2020), the scale developed by Akkerman and colleagues (2014) has been widely employed in studies conducted in several other countries, such as Belgium (Spruyt, Keppens & Van Droogenbroeck 2016), Chile (Hawkins & Rovira Kaltwasser 2014), France (Vasilopoulos & Jost, 2020), Switzerland (Schulz et al, 2018), the U.S.A. (Oliver & Rahn 2016), and Italy (Cremonesi, 2019). The items included in the ITANES 2020 survey, and used in this study, were also based on this scale.…”

“…An interdisciplinary approach to populism has the potential to resolve one of the main lacunae in the existing academic literature on this topic: the analysis of the psychological characteristics of populist supporters in general and of the degree to which voting for populist forces is related to internal/individual processing systems of political information (an important exception is the work of Vasilopoulos and Jost [4]). Given that populist actors are gaining presence in a broad array of countries around the world, it is becoming evident that macro-structural factors, such as economic development and trends in socioeconomic inequality, are of little of help to understanding the global rise of populism [1].…”
