How People Organize the Political World: A Schematic Model
Abstract
A schematic model of political belief systems based on recent research in social and cognitive psychology is developed.

An initial test of the theory, done with Q methodology, is reported and the results provide consistent support for the general predictions of schema theory as applied to political beliefs.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
