The following must rank as one of the all-time most obtuse statements ever made by a conservative academic......"conservatives are — almost by definition — lacking in the psychological characteristics that predict high achievement in academic subjects, such as openness to experience and a willingness to question received understandings." A quite extraordinary statement....would have made a great line on a satirical political comedy sketch. Because of course a lack of openness to experience and an unwillingness to question received understandings is THE defining characteristic of your typical Leftist academic in the humanities and social sciences.
