The paper

Edit: the article might be misrepresenting the study and its findings, so it’s worth checking the paper itself. (See @realChem 's comment in the thread).

    I got 18/20, but also THEY DONT HAVE AN OPTION FOR AUSTRALIA! What kind of survey has Austria and Azerbaijan but not Australia. Seriously. And you Americans love a binary scale of political preference. At least it wasn’t a required question.

        After you finish the survey, it asks your age, gender, country and political position (from a drop-down that goes from “Extremely Liberal” to “Extremely Conservative”).

          Oh, I thought they would asking for it before the survey begins and the questions are tweaked accordingly. It isn’t really fair to ask someone from the other side of the world questions solely based on US politics.
