Also: "very well-adjusted smart young people who sincerely believe that modern leftist and liberal thought is correct without absorbing the degeneracy that comes with it" are probably future conservatives that adhere to leftist talking point for conformism.
It would make sense to collapse the left-wing parties because they are very similar and there is a lot of voter movement between them. But the result would be no surprise, mental health would be just the weighted average of the current parties which are all lower than government voters. I'm not sure if it would make sense to collapse the right-wing parties because there is a huge difference between right-wing, pro-government voters (Fidesz) and right-wing, anti-government voters (formerly Jobbik, currently Mi Hazánk). Viktor Orbán's strategy has traditionally been the "central field of power" where he has opposition parties on both sides who mutually hate each other and can never form a coalition. Jobbik tried to get together with the leftists to overcome this but they got completely wiped out. Right-wing radicals who are equally opposed to liberalism/globalism AND the government (even if it is right-wing) are a natural constitutency in Hungary, it's not correct to pool them together with government voters.
No, why would I have? There is plenty of power here to detect any effects big enough to be potentially interesting (except maybe test bias for liberals and others) and it's not like I can recruit more people if power is low.

OT: "(increasingly at the expense of other stuff a government is supposed to be doing)" like what?
Prudent management of money and proper day-to-day management of the country's affairs like trains running on time.
Is there a way to collapse the political party groups into left & right and see what those analyses yield?

Right on. As an aside, did you run an a priori power analysis even though using secondary data?
