“…To answer this question, some researchers have taken a personality psychology approach and focused on relatively stable, individual differences predictors of political orientation. For instance, higher conservatism has been associated with higher Conscientiousness, lower Openness to Experience (Carney, Jost, Gosling, & Potter, ), higher disgust sensitivity (Inbar, Pizarro, & Bloom, ; Inbar, Pizarro, Iyer, & Haidt, ), higher generalized sensitivity to negative stimuli (Hibbing, Smith, & Alford, ; Joel, Burton, & Plaks, ), higher aversion to arousal (Tritt, Inzlicht, & Peterson, , ), higher avoidance orientation (Janoff‐Bulman, ; Janoff‐Bulman & Carnes, ), and higher prevention focus (Lucas & Molden, ). Other researchers have taken a social psychological approach, focusing on temporary cues in the environment that shape political orientation.…”
