Just because I was bored, I compared the libertarian/authoritarian means of the lower left and lower right quadrants: Lower left quadrant lib./auth. mean: -5.17 (s.d. 1.91) Lower right quadrant lib./auth. mean: -3.99 (s.d. 1.66) And with a 2-tailed t-test, I got a p-value of 0.02, suggesting that th...
