Abstract

Abstract Research in the field of Resistance to Persuasion (RP) has demonstrated that inoculating individuals with counter arguments is effective for lowering their levels of adherence to conspiracist beliefs (CB). Yet, this strategy is limited because it requires specific arguments tailored against targeted conspiracist narratives. Therefore, we investigated whether priming Resistance to Persuasion would reduce individual adherence to CB among undergraduate student samples. A first study (N = 81) demonstrated that participants primed by filling a RP scale had lower CB scores than control participants. This effect was directly replicated twice (N = 205 and N = 265) and confirmed by a mini meta-analysis (N = 519; d = .20). Practical and theoretical implications are then discussed.
对说服的抵制减少了对阴谋论的坚持*
在抗说服(RP)领域的研究表明,给个体接种反论点可以有效地降低他们对阴谋论信仰(CB)的坚持程度。然而,这种策略是有限的,因为它需要针对有针对性的阴谋论叙事量身定制的具体论点。因此,本研究调查了启动“抗拒说服”是否会降低大学生样本的个人依从性。第一项研究(N = 81)表明,填写RP量表的参与者比对照参与者的CB分数低。该效应被直接重复了两次(N = 205和N = 265),并被一项小型荟萃分析证实(N = 519;D = .20)。然后讨论了实际和理论意义。
