Re: Psychological correlates of deletionism/inclusionism?

What were you hoping to see?

Obviously, either some sound peer-reviewed research displaying that
"deletionists" suffer from deep-seated psychological problems that make
them clinically unfit to work on a collaborative project; or some sound
peer-reviewed research displaying that "inclusionists" suffer from some
other, similarly severe, deep-seated psychological problems.

I'm not sure which of the two you're fishing for, though.

Cheers,
David...
