In October 2022, @Ema_SB participated in a panel with @rachelschraer, @ETVpod, and @MrMMarsh on Rabbit Holes and Radicalisation @QEDcon. youtube.com/watch?v=PlSZVuet…
In addition to the workshops, the project team gave several talks on the subject of conspiracy theories. In January 2022, Anna and Ema presented their paper ‘Conspiracy Attitudes, Delusions, and Psychopathology’ at the Why Do People Believe Weird Things? seminar series.
Our bonus third workshop was on conspiracies and delusions and took place in Birmingham in March 2024.
Workshop two was on the implications of pathologizing conspiracy beliefs and took place in Gargnano in May 2023.
Our original plan was to hold two workshops, one in Birmingham, and one in Gargnano. The way things fell meant we were able to hold a third workshop. Workshop one was on conspiratorial belief and pathology and took place @PTRBirmingham in April 2023.
📢We are delighted to announce the project's third workshop, on the topic of Conspiracies and Delusions! Taking place @PTRBirmingham on 11th March 2024, and featuring @lisabortolotti, @kmurphyhollies, Judit Szalai, and @paulnoordhof. Registration is free (just email @Ema_SB).
@DrDanielJolley closes our workshop with his talk on 'Conspiracy Theory Beliefs and Non-normative Political Action'.
Melina Tsapos opens day 2 of our workshop with her paper ‘Dimensions of Conspiracy Theories: towards a Unified Framework for Understanding Conspiracy Theory Belief’
We’re excited to hear six talks over the next day and a half, with each accompanied by a short comment. Here’s the wonderful line up! #ConsPath2
Today we are in Gargnano for #ConsPath2! A beautiful venue!
