I think this study is flawed based on their sample which was college students. Anyone who has read something they don't agree with realizes it creates an emotional response. At the same time people tend to be more emotional when they are younger. Paticularly in College where most people see politics as a way to "change the world" So a conclusion based on college students doesn't really impress me. Of course very emotional people are going to avoid things that cause a negative emotional response I guess it does tell us that the emotional side of us seeks out like minded people but that seems like common sense to me. Part of being an adult is realizing your emotions shouldn't dictate what you do and seeking out thoughts you might not agree with. Not every adult does it but every adult should.
