1. The measure for authoritarian values uses the question in the World Values Survey,

I'm going to describe various types of political systems and ask what you think about each as a way of governing this country. For each one, would you say it is a very good, fairly good, fairly bad or very bad way of governing this country?

“Having a strong leader who does not have to bother with parliament and elections”, “Having experts, not government, make decisions according to what they think is best for the country”, “Having the army rule”.
