在2016年6月英国举行脱欧公投后，学者们对理解脱欧支持者和留欧支持者的特征一直很感兴趣。由于脱欧支持者在尽职尽责方面得分较高，但在神经质和开放性方面得分较低，而且考虑到他们普遍倾向于保守主义，我们假设，对现实主义艺术的偏好将预示着对英国退欧的支持。研究人员获得了英国人口中具有全国代表性的大样本的数据，并使用四项二元选择测试衡量了他们对现实主义艺术的偏好。控制了一系列的个人特征，我们发现，喜欢所有四幅写实画的受访者比那些喜欢零幅或一幅写实画的受访者支持休假的可能性高出15-20个百分点。这一影响相当于拥有学位的人和没有受过教育的人在支持方面的差异，并且对于控制受访者的政党身份认同是强有力的。
Following the UK’s EU referendum in June 2016, there has been considerable interest from scholars in understanding the characteristics that differentiate Leave supporters from Remain supporters. Since Leave supporters score higher on conscientiousness but lower on neuroticism and openness, and given their general proclivity toward conservatism, we hypothesized that preference for realistic art would predict support for Brexit. Data on a large nationally representative sample of the British population were obtained, and preference for realistic art was measured using a four‐item binary choice test. Controlling for a range of personal characteristics, we found that respondents who preferred all four realistic paintings were 15–20 percentage points more likely to support Leave than those who preferred zero or one realistic paintings. This effect was comparable to the difference in support between those with a degree and those with no education, and was robust to controlling for the respondent’s party identity.
