Name the single inferential step the rest of this article is built around, because everything downstream depends on stating it precisely rather than gesturing at “selection bias” in general. The paper reports three cross-country “moral clusters” — Western, Eastern, and Southern — built by hierarchically clustering 130 countries’ nine-dimensional AMCE vectors, each country represented by at least 100 respondents, ranging up to a reported maximum of 448,125 [ 1 ] .
