Nature N8 chats with Professor Stephan Lewandowsky about the psychological nature of science denialism. Professor Lewandowsky is the chair of Cognitive Psychology at the School of Experimental Psychology, University of Bristol. He has studied people’s belief in conspiracy theories, disinformation surrounding the Iraq War, and public opinion on climate change.
This episode was recorded at the AAAS annual meeting in Seattle on February 15, 2020. We’ve spent the past decades trying to get through to climate skeptics, but WHY exactly are conspiracy theories so credible for some people?
