Study links low intelligence with right-wing beliefs

[Lunarfaggot]

Researchers have found a possible explanation for why certain people are prejudiced: they’re less intelligent.

Children with lower general intelligence are more likely to become prejudiced as adults, according to a Brock University study.

The study, published in the journal Psychological Science, examined data from two large-scale British studies, and found lower intelligence scores in childhood were predictors of greater racism in adulthood, which the researchers controversially explain is brought about by adopting right-wing ideologies.

Yet their better educated and make more $. Guess there is a study for every belief....

Not HS Grad College Grad & Post-grad
% of Democrats 32% 15%
% of Independents 22% 18%
% of Republicans 19% 23%

Here is the data on people who earn incomes over $75,000 which is also highly correlated to IQ:

Income under $75,000 over $75,000
% of Democrats 74% 26%
% of Independents 72% 28%
% of Republicans 57% 43%

those are the facts. Many studies have been done on non-voters level of income and education; non-voters match independents exactly.

To recapitulate: The Republican average IQ is higher than non-voters and independents and all three are higher than the Democratic average IQ
