Fascinating report about a recent experiment by NYU and UCLA scientists, which suggests that liberals and conservatives have very different cognitive styles. This short article is factual, well-written, with good context and a variety of perspectives on this study.

I'm particularly pleased that in a short report the author included a healthy dose of methodology, allowing the reader to determine how much stock to place in the findings.

Although the reporter seems to be well informed, the reason why i don't think this story is very factual is because i feel as though the study done was very one sided. I feel as though they could have also used another letter for the experiment. I like how the reporter presents different sides to the story and peoples opinions about the study.I would like to conclude that i do not think this piece is quality journalism. I didn't really learn anything new, i wasn't surprised, i also did not think the story itself was very interesting.

The article's finding on the "two cognitive styles -- a liberal style and a conservative style," gives me a deeper understanding why social media in numbers can build trust across individual differences over time. Engage to understand.
