Prominent theories about the link between threat and political ideology are grounded on two assumptions. First, popular threat and ideology theories assume that people typically use the liberal–conservative continuum as their ideological framework.

Working from these assumptions, theories posit that people's responses to threat causally influence their deeply ingrained liberal–conservative political ideology. In this review, we question these assumptions. We describe evidence that the structure of ideology varies between people (i.e., some people use the liberal–conservative continuum and some use other ideological frameworks) and within individuals across issues (e.g., a person may use the liberal–conservative continuum for some issues but other ideological frameworks fo...
