A finer bunch of BS I've not read for awhile.

If the political spectrum actually went right and left, that would be
one thing, but it doesn't, which makes this study useless.

If the study were valid it would be interesting to read the
explanation for how "cognitive styles" change, through either life
experiences or learned knowledge. Since really, the political group
you belong to is not based on a way of thinking but a belief in the
right answers for a particular issue (is welfare good or bad, are
taxes good or bad).
