Research interests

I am currently preocuppied with people’s tendency to endorse mutually inconsistent beliefs, as well as how the belief system is organized to allow for such a thing – this is the topic of my PhD thesis. I am also interested in all forms of irrational or epistemically suspect beliefs, belief in conspiracy theories in particular. Currently, I am most interested in if and how these beliefs can be reduced.

Keywords social cognition, contradictory beliefs, doublethink, irrational beliefs, conspiracy theories
