摘要
这项研究旨在评估社会主导取向、封闭需求、数学态度、超自然信仰、宗教信仰和教育程度对一般阴谋信仰(GCB)和阴谋心态(CM)的预测作用。在巴西样本中进行了两项研究。在研究 1 中,教育程度较高和女性与 GCB 呈负相关。在研究 2 中,超自然信仰与 CM 有正向预测关系,而宗教信仰越高,CM 越低。未来的研究应探讨本研究中发现的关系中的中介效应,并为阴谋论信念提供更好的概念化和可操作性。
“They don't want you to know the truth”: Evaluating predictors of beliefs in conspiracy theories
This work aims to evaluate the predictive effect of Social Dominance Orientation, Need for Closure, Attitudes toward Math, Paranormal Beliefs, Religiosity, and Education over General Conspiracy Beliefs (GCB) and Conspiracy Mentality (CM). Two studies were conducted with Brazilian samples. In Study 1, a higher Educational Level and being a female were negatively associated with GCB. In Study 2, Paranormal Beliefs had a positive predictive relationship with CM, while greater Religiosity was associated with lower CM. Future studies should explore the effects of mediators in the relationships found in this study and provide a better conceptualization and operationalization of conspiracy beliefs.
期刊介绍:
Applied Cognitive Psychology seeks to publish the best papers dealing with psychological analyses of memory, learning, thinking, problem solving, language, and consciousness as they occur in the real world. Applied Cognitive Psychology will publish papers on a wide variety of issues and from diverse theoretical perspectives. The journal focuses on studies of human performance and basic cognitive skills in everyday environments including, but not restricted to, studies of eyewitness memory, autobiographical memory, spatial cognition, skill training, expertise and skilled behaviour. Articles will normally combine realistic investigations of real world events with appropriate theoretical analyses and proper appraisal of practical implications.
