Meant to link to this specific article first (I copied the wrong link in the previous email):

If not, perhaps these two articles, which discuss this topic, have a citation to the study that you're searching for?

I don’t have it, Kevin, but if anyone finds it, I’d appreciate the citation.

Subject: Please help find this article

 

Dear Colleagues,

 

Please help me find this article:  

 

About 5-10 years ago, I stumbled across an article on a study, done by the author[s], indicating that critical-thinking skills are negatively correlated with having conservative social/political views.  The study first involved giving a survey to the subjects, to measure their political views.  The subjects were then given one of the popular standardized CT assessment tests, perhaps it was the Watson-Glaser or the California CT test.  

 

I've Googled around to no avail.  So I would appreciate any suggestions.

 

Thanks much!

 

Kevin Possin
