Quiz: Is Your Brain Republican or Democrat?

Is Your Brain a Democrat or Republican?



How does this work?
A 2014 study concluded that people who were more prone to disgust are more conservative and tend to align with the republican party. But, why?

Some scientists believe it's ancestral and that the adverse reactions were used to protect primitive ancestors from contamination and disease. This way a person wouldn't confuse drinking water with dirty pond scum.

The study measured participants' brain response to "disgusting" imagery using an MRI. The study could predict party affiliation with up to 98% confidence. The questionaire on chartsme.com uses Jonathan Haidt's disgust scale in lieu of MRI and imagery, so results are likely far less accurate. Watch TED Talk to learn more.

You should rewire it to invest instead of saving. Inflation basically is spending your money.

Did you make sure where the answers were? They seemed to move around...not stay in same place.

Already done. And I knew better than that! I was going between the quiz and here trying to get info in there, so that slipped past me.

Yep, after more than 20 years in the military, including a tour in Vietnam, it just takes a lot to disgust me.

OK but deflation is apparent in the States as I write. I got in the stock market for ten years and then got out after a killing. Only a High School education and never read Stock Market for Dummies. I am also a good poker player if you want to play no limit and no wild cards.

That was probably it. I am squeamish with some of those things in the quiz.
