  • On the other hand, and less studied, Left-Wing Authoritarianism (LWA) has gained increasing relevance within the social and behavioral sciences. Recent advances have been made in understanding authoritarian attitudes among left-leaning individuals and groups across diverse sociopolitical contexts and languages (see Conway et al., 2018; Conway & McFarland, 2019; De Regt et al., 2011; Fasce & Avenda˜no, 2023; Manson, 2020; Van Hiel et al., 2006).

    In fact, Costello et al. (2022) have recently made an important contribution on the conceptual elucidation

    Can anyone tell me the structural reason why scientists write their papers like this? Do journal editors not take your paper seriously if you're not writing things like "conceptual elucidation"? genuinely curious.

    and psychometric measurement of LWA. According to their model, there are three dimensions of LWA: Anti-Hierarchical Aggression, which is the disposition to violently overthrow and penalize the current structures of authority and power in society; Anti-Conventionalism, characterized by a sense of moral superiority and a desire for ideological uniformity within the group; and Top-Down Censorship, the drive to use group authority to coercively and punitively control ideologies and behaviors that do not conform or are not consistent with left-wing standpoints. In the work of Costello et al. (2022), this construct displayed a nomological network reflecting cognitive rigidity, coercive group behavior, and moral absolutism. The same LWA construct has also been linked to support for authoritarian policies and rejection of fundamental civil liberties and rights (Fasce & Avenda˜no, 2022; Manson, 2020).

    Left-wing authoritarianism (LWA): We used the Spanish adaptation (Avenda˜no et al., 2022) of the 39-item scale recently developed by Costello et al. (2022). The questionnaire consists of 3 subscales: Anti- hierarchical aggression (LWA AHA), Anti-conventionalism (LWA AC), and Top-down censorship (LWA TDC).

    the 39-item scale can be found here: https://psycnet.apa.org/doiLanding?doi=10.1037%2Fpspp0000341

    If any comrade has access through an academic institution or wants to pay $17.95 for the pdf that would be great
