Why do so many well-meaning, intelligent people get sucked down the rabbit hole of conspiracy theories? The answer lies in our mind’s own predispositions and shortcuts to forming our identity and sense of reality, and the social media landscape that takes advantage of them. Dr. Laura Lauzen-Collins, associate professor of psychology, will focus on those predispositions and shortcuts that make us vulnerable to getting sucked down the rabbit hole. This event is organized by the Library and the Democracy Commitment.
