Original paper[1]


Conservatism is defines as “resistance to change and the tendency to prefer safe, traditional and conventional forms of institutions and behaviour” [2] and also in a test scale, it put stress on uncertnty avoidance and political refernces[3].

Growing evidence that situational factors influence the experience and expression of conservatism[4][5][6][7][8][9][10]

System instability and other threatening circumstances should also increase conservative tendencies in the population as a whole[11][12][13][14][15][16]
