Men are more likely than women to believe in coronavirus conspiracy theories.
According to EurekAlert, the study was published in the scientific journal Politics & Gender.
In April, a study led by Professor Joan Miller at the University of Delaware in the United States surveyed 3,000 people. Respondents were asked about popular conspiracy theories, such as billionaire Bill Gates' involvement in the spread of the coronavirus or the impact of 5G on the pandemic. Experts noted the responses of the participants, as well as their gender and political orientation.
According to reports, the issue of gender is more important than political meetings when it comes to conspiracy theories. Thus, men said they believed in conspiracy theories more than women. For example, 32.45 percent of men and 22.27 percent of women in the US Democratic Party supported conspiracy theories. Among Republicans, 48.9 percent of men and 38.81 percent of women said they believed the conspiracy theories about the coronavirus were valid.
The organizers of the study said that men and women experience the stress of the coronavirus crisis differently. According to them, the main factor in this result is a feeling of helplessness in the face of danger. Researchers have found that men who do not find a rational explanation for the problem are more likely to believe in conspiracy theories.
