Threat has traditionally been conceptualized as a cause or consequence of right-wing ideologies. We argue that the relation is bidirectional and that conceptually pairing right-wing ideologies with threat might be too simplistic and potentially inaccurate. To illustrate a more nuanced perspective, we review recent findings and present data investigating the relations between threat and multiple dimensions of right-wing ideology. Using path analyses SEM, we found that greater right-wing authoritarianism (RWA) predicted perceiving greater latent risk, whereas greater social dominance orientation (SDO) predicted perceiving less latent risk (Study 1); RWA associated with experiencing greater distress, whereas SDO associated with experiencing less distress (when considering the self or others engaging in harmful behaviors; Study 2). Thus, consistent with existing literature, one aspect of right-wing ideology (RWA) relates to greater threat, but another (SDO) relates to experiencing less threat, inconsistent wi...

右翼意识形态：威胁的积极（消极）关系

传统上，将威胁概念化为右翼意识形态的起因或后果。我们认为这种关系是双向的，并且在概念上将右翼意识形态与威胁结合在一起可能过于简单，甚至可能不准确。为了说明更细微的观点，我们回顾了最近的发现并提供了调查威胁与右翼意识形态多个维度之间关系的数据。使用路径分析的SEM，我们发现更大的右翼专制主义（RWA）预测感知到更大的潜在风险，而更大的社会支配倾向（SDO）则预测感知到的潜在风险较小（研究1）；RWA与经历更大的苦难相关，而SDO与经历更少的苦难相关（当考虑自己或他人从事有害行为时；研究2）。从而，
