I’ve linked to the news release in the post above. In this comment, for those interested, here’s the link to the peer reviewed journal article:

From the linked article:
**People who are quick to see themselves as victims of unfair treatment may be more likely to believe in conspiracy theories, according to a massive international study** published in the European Journal of Social Psychology. The research links a stable personality trait called “victim justice sensitivity” to greater endorsement of conspiracy narratives about climate change, vaccines, and other topics.
So people who are quick to see the truth(they’re a victim) of their situation(unfair treatment, which victimizes, which makes it true that someone that is in that situation would be a victim) are more likely to believe in conspiracy theories?
Or, people who believe in conspiracy theories are quick to see themselves as victims of unfair treatment.
Who is wasting money on all of these dumb studies?
So in other words, people who are prone to believe that others are conspiring against them are more likely to believe in conspiracy theories… ok gang
