Research indicates a complex but consistent, albeit small, correlation between higher intelligence and politically left-leaning or liberal beliefs. The average IQ difference between political groups is generally modest and often overlaps significantly, with research revealing varying advantages depending on the specific measures used.

Key findings from various studies include:

Overall Correlation: A meta-analysis of multiple studies found intelligence to be negatively correlated with right-wing ideological attitudes, particularly with social conservatism, authoritarianism, and ethnocentrism.

Specific Beliefs: Higher intelligence is often associated with beliefs described as socially liberal, such as lower authoritarianism, and potentially also with fiscally conservative beliefs, although this fiscal link is very small.
