The Myth of Left-Wing Authoritarianism
Abstract
The authors of The Authoritarian Personality (Adorno, et al., 1950), armed with the modern tools of psychoanalysis as well as ancient knowledge of scapegoating, reported an extensive series of investigations into the psychological roots of fascism.

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.
