Who Believes and Why?: The Causes & Consequences of Conspiracy
Dr. Adam Enders will lead a discussion on which ideas count as conspiracy theories, why and how many people believe them, how conspiracy theorizing has changed (or not) over time, and what the potential consequences are. Along the way, we will examine how people process information online and think through big questions about the nature of truth.
