Answer to Question 1

Answer: An ideal response will:
1. Indicate that studies have found that people may label themselves ideologically one way but may indicate the opposite ideological position on some issues. People may have conservative views on some issues, such as economics, and liberal views on others, such as civil rights.
2. Discuss how the simple left-right continuum may be inadequate for creating an accurate ideological picture for many people. Alternatively, in addition to the left-right scale, it would be useful to consider a position ranging from statist positions to libertarian ones.
