He doesn't want to see any study or article that proves him wrong. He won't even read these.

He believes that he can quote a source and say it is gospel but nobody else can.

I will now add to your list with these two discussions:

1- http://scienceblogs.com/mixingmemory...dunno-is-it-r/

Basically it talks about how plain old asking how people are feeling is inaccurate for study purposes - the study he quoted uses that simple method to asses happiness.

2- http://www.modern-cynic.org/2012/03/...than-liberals/

This discussion analyzes the study he quoted and finds there isn't much of a statistically significant difference among political ideologies.

Like I said it has nothing to do with right/left views.
