Obvious fault here...

If this statement is to be accepted as true,

"What’s clear is that it is their political and not religious orientation that underlies the different psychologies of political conservatives and liberals,”

then the study would have to be designed such that religious as well as non-religious could participate. And I have to echo the concern that the sample size was so small. Was it all from one region? Was it conducted standing outside of a single church after the service let out?

Surely the study has more information but it is not evident by the content of the article.
