Education, Intelligence, and Attitude Extremity (2012)

The field of economics really has done itself a disservice in its relevance as a science by becoming so intertwined with politics.

Wait- what? The authors' credentials on the abstract page are different from their credentials in the pdf (which the site won't let me re-open). Hmmm.

Also, early on the authors fail to include an apostrophe that is needed to make the word 'individuals' a possessive plural. A detector is starting to go off in my mind.

I suspect that the PDF states the authors' positions when the paper was written and the SSRN page states their current positions.

According to http://www.michaelmakowsky.com/about/ Michael D. Makowsky is currently a professor at Clemson University (as listed on the SSRN page) and was previously a professor at the Center for Advanced Modeling at Johns Hopkins University (as in the PDF).
