Additionally, these individuals often engage in rumination, a maladaptive strategy for emotion regulation. The findings suggest that improving emotional granularity— the ability to identify and describe emotions accurately—may help individuals manage their emotions better and reduce their susceptibility to conspiracy beliefs. “Particularly on the internet and in social networks, you often come across expl...

The motivation behind the study stems from the need to understand the role of conspiracy theories in democratic societies. Democracies thrive on the participation of informed and critical citizen...

Recent research provides insight into how belief in the QAnon conspiracy theory can strain interpersonal relationships. The qualitative study, published in the Journal of Social and Personal Relationships, reveals how followers’ deep entrenchment in QAnon can alienate their loved ones, leading to reduced communication and often the breakdown of relationships. QAnon emerged in late 2017 and quickly gained attention for its extensive, if not outlandish, set of beliefs. Central to QAnon is the notion that a secretive government insider known as “Q” is revealing vital secrets about a supposed glob...

A recent study published in the Journal of Individual Differences has shed light on the psychological factors influencing conspiracy thinking. The research found that existential isolation and alienation are both significant predictors of conspiracy beliefs. However, loneliness did not have a significant impact on such beliefs. Conspiracy theorists are frequently stereotyped as isolated individuals, often depicted as reclusive figures wearing “tinfoil hats.” But this image has evolved significantly, with contemporary research recognizing that conspiracy beliefs are no longer fringe phenomena b...
