that this study suggests that all the studies about where people are likely to make strong factual errors supporting their own partisan positions are less likely to occur when people are given money for correct answers
Going by the syntax, it seems like you’re saying “that this study suggests that all the studies [about certain things] are less likely to occur [under certain circumstances]”, i.e. the study you’re talking about was about the frequency of other types of studies. This doesn’t seem to make sense.
There are studies which show that people across the political spectrum answer many factual questions in ways that don’t reflect the factual data, and they do so in ways that support their own political ideology if they were true. This research shows that this effect goes down a lot when people are told they will be paid for how many correct answers they give.
I can’t parse this bit:

nod That doesn’t seem to be a possible interpretation of your original sentence.
Is the edited version better?
Yeah, the new version seems quite clear (except that this looks like a typo: “people are likely to make likely to state strong factual errors”).
