Corporal Punishment and Political Conservatism: Is There a Link?

$19.99

The results of corporal punishment in the brains of children are the brain patterns that show up in adult conservatives, especially those who find comfort in authoritarianism. The worse the abuse that a child suffers, the more likely they are to believe in authoritarianism as an adult.

Join Sarah Peyton for a 90-minute exploration of the research into the brain patterns of political affiliation, and links between the impacts of corporal punishment, and other forms of abuse, on adult thinking.
