Results from analyses on 31 countries (Study 1): Correlations between mean individual F-scale scores, historical pathogen prevalence, and other country-level variables.

<p>Note: ** <i>p</i><.01, * <i>p</i><.05, N = 31.</p

Results from analyses on the Standard Cross Cultural Sample (Study 2): Standardized regression coefficients (<i>β</i>'s) identifying unique predictive effects of threats due to pathogens, famine, malnutrition and warfare on indicators of authoritarian governance.

<p>Note: ** <i>p</i><.01, * <i>p</i><.05. All variables were (re-)coded such that higher values indicate greater concentration of political power (i.e., higher levels of authoritarian governance).</p

Results from analyses on the Standard Cross Cultural Sample (Study 2): Zero-order correlations between 12-item index of authoritarian governance, two measures of parasite stress, and three measures assessing other threats to health and welfare.
