Belief in conspiracy theories results from a combination of intuitive and deliberative cognitive processes (van Prooijen, Klein, & Milošević Đorđević, 2020). We propose a novel construct, conspiracy intuitions, the subjective sense that an event or circumstance is not adequately explained or accounted for by existing narratives, potentially for nefarious reasons, as an initial stage in the acquisition of conspiracy beliefs that can be distinguished from conspiracy beliefs themselves. We draw on both the conspiracy theory and magical thinking literature to make a case for conspiracy intuitions, suggest methods for measuring them, and argue that efforts to combat conspiracy theories in society could benefit from strategies that attend to the intuitive properties of the proto-beliefs that precede them.
相信阴谋论是直观和深思熟虑的认知过程共同作用的结果（van Prooijen、Klein 和 Milošević Đorđević，2020）。我们提出了一个新的概念，即阴谋直觉，即主观上认为一个事件或情况没有被现有叙述充分解释或说明，可能是出于恶意的原因，这是获得阴谋信念的初始阶段，可以将其与阴谋信念本身区分开来。我们借鉴了阴谋论和神奇思维文献，提出了阴谋直觉的观点，建议了测量它们的方法，并认为，在社会中对抗阴谋论的努力可以从关注先于它们的原始信念的直观属性的策略中受益。
