Right-wingers have larger fear center in the brain
People with conservative views have a larger amygdala, a primitive part of the brain associated with fear, new research shows.

People with more liberal views, on the other hand, have a bigger anterior cingulated cortex, a region of the brain linked to decision-making.

Research led by Wellcome Trust senior research fellow Professor Geraint Rees uncovered the differences by giving magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans to ninety young adults who had reported their political attitudes on a scale from 'very conservative' to 'very liberal'.
