A recent study published in the journal Political Psychology investigates the rise of political authoritarianism in the United States, particularly around the events of the January 6, 2021 insurrection. The researchers found evidence that a strong sense of identity fusion with Donald Trump is linked to his followers viewing opposition members as existential threats. But fusion with the overarching identity of “America” can reduce this perception, thus diminishing support for authoritarian actions against political rivals. Political authoritarianism is on the rise globally, with significant imp...

The findings have been published in the Journal of Personality. Right-wing authoritarianism and social dominance orientation are two ...

Background and Motivation Behind the StudyThe motivation behind this study stemmed from an observation of the increasingly controversial t...
