<br></div><div><span style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; font-family: sans-serif;">According to research by Altemeyer, right-wing authoritarians tend to exhibit cognitive errors and symptoms of faulty reasoning. Specifically, they are more likely to make incorrect inferences from evidence and to hold <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doublethink" title="Doublethink" style="text-decoration: none; color: rgb(6, 69, 173);" target="_blank">contradictory ideas</a> that result from compartmentalized thinking. They are also more likely to uncritically accept insufficient evidence that supports their beliefs, and they are less likely to acknowledge their own limitations.<sup style="line-height: 1em; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-wing_authoritarianism#cite_note-Altemeyer.2C_B._1996-1" style="text-decoration: none; color: rgb(6, 69, 173); white-space: nowrap;" target="_blank"><span>[</span>2<span>]</span></a></sup> Nevertheless, there is no connection between authoritarianism and either low or high intelligence. Measured against the<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Five_personality_traits" title="Big Five personality traits" style="text-decoration: none; color: rgb(6, 69, 173);" target="_blank">five factor model</a> of personality, authoritarians generally score lower on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Openness_to_experience" title="Openness to experience" style="text-decoration: none; color: rgb(6, 69, 173);" target="_blank">openness to experience</a> and slightly higher on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conscientiousness" title="Conscientiousness" style="text-decoration: none; color: rgb(6, 69, 173);" target="_blank">conscientiousness</a>.</span></div>
