Who was politically intolerant in 2016?
PRRI, December 2016 Survey
Leftist women were the most intolerant, an expected result. However, is this due to their ideology and sex, or something else, say, where they live or being young? I decided to download the dataset and have a look. Here's my results:
Details:
The outcome is yes/no answer to the question in the title.
Logistic models. A full model (in red) and a model for each predictor alone (in turquoise).
n = 1004
Holding other factors constant and ignoring multiple testing, we see that the predictors of being intolerant are: being female, ideologically liberal or very liberal, and highly educated. The survey is too small to try anything more specific. Arguably I controlled for too many things and reduced precision too much. If we simplify it, we get this:
Nothing really changed though. White race does not predict blocking before or after covariates are added. The most intolerant remains highly educated, highly liberal women.
