          Why the Faces of Women and Men Are Perceived Differently by Liberals and Conservatives

          A person with a wider face was considered to be more dominant and possess stronger leadership skills than a person with a narrower face. This was especially true of males, who were also considered to be more electable when they had a wider face. Conservatives showed more bias toward women's faces and were less likely to vote for a woman because, despite having wider faces, they perceived the candidate as less dominant. Liberals were more likely to vote for a woman but, as with conservatives, they perceived a woman with a wider face to be less dominant than a male.

          Politically Polarized Brains Share an Intolerance of Uncertainty

          For politically polarized people, their brain activity syncs up with like-minded people who share their political ideologies to perceive information in the same way. However, and regardless of political affiliation, those with personality traits linked to intolerance, and who were less tolerant of daily uncertainty, had more polarized brain responses than those who were more tolerant to uncertainty.
