The psychology behind conspiracy theories stems from a mix of cognitive biases, emotional needs, and social factors. People are drawn to conspiracy theories in an attempt to make sense of complex or uncertain events, particularly in times of crisis. **Confirmation bias** leads individuals to seek information that aligns with their preexisting beliefs, while **pattern recognition** makes them see connections where none exist. Emotionally, conspiracy theories offer a sense of control and reduce feelings of powerlessness. Socially, they foster group identity and shared beliefs. These factors combined make conspiracy theories appealing and resistant to counter-evidence or rational arguments.
