Recent studies have confirmed the significant impact of education on political beliefs and religiosity. Higher educational levels often correlate with decreased belief in God and increased liberal ideologies. Research utilizing polygenic scores and examining family dynamics has supported the notion that intelligence influences political attitudes independently of socioeconomic factors. The consistent findings across studies indicate that cognitive ability—and thus educational attainment—plays a crucial role in shaping one's political ideology, promoting liberal values and tolerance, while reducing conservative tendencies and religiosity.
Numerous studies have confirmed that intelligence is associated with a specific set of religious and political beliefs, including liberalism, anti-racism and tolerance of others.
Recent studies have consistently reported robust relationships between educational levels, cognitive ability, low religiosity, and liberal views, indicating that education significantly influences political beliefs.
