Upholding social hierarchies: Social Dominance Orientation moderates the link between (intergroup) conspiracy exposure and violent extremism (2024)
Journal Article
Schrader, T., Jolley, D., Jolley, R., & Krahenbuhl, S. (in press). Upholding social hierarchies: Social Dominance Orientation moderates the link between (intergroup) conspiracy exposure and violent extremism. Group Processes and Intergroup Relations,

Across two experimental studies, we explored whether exposure to intergroup conspiracy theories can increase violent reactions towards targeted groups. We also examined how ideological attitudes may moderate the effect. In Study 1 (N = 160, pre-regis...
