Since ancient times,people have been known to use conspiracies and make good use of conspiracies.Western writings are represented by the "Monarchy",and Eastern writings are endless: since the book " Guiguzi" promotes the tendency to become inflamed and pay attention to achieving the purpose,it is not over By all means,by the time of the Republic of China,the column of " Talk about the theory of thick black" opened by Li Zongwu in the newspaper in 1936,that is,the " The Thick and Black Philosophy" in the book spread by posterity.A large book special book,advocating the value concept of "Let me bear others,but no one bears me".At the beginning of the millennium 60 years after Li Zongwu's death,there were still a lot of people who believed in philanthropy went to his grave.Just like the bold headline used by the media when reporting-"The Thick Master is not Lonely Behind".Turning our eyes to the 21 st century,now that the Internet is booming,the explosive growth of information has made people understand the world more easily,and it has also made certain conspiracy theory topics more widely known.This type of conspiracy theory and people Faith in it is gradually becoming a focus topic for scholars of social disciplines such as psychology and sociology.At the same time,some people were involved in social events such as the Malaysia Airlines crash,the "Bird's Nest" in the Beijing Olympic venues,and the Red Cross' s donation to the "anti-epidemic" incident in Wuhan earlier this year.After the ferment of "Weibo" and "We Chat circle of friends",it was passed on ten times.It is conceivable that the credibility of such messages will be reduced.Some scholars have pointed out that the thick black personality behind the thick black believers has an important influence on the conviction theory.Because conspiracy theory can serve as an explanation,it can reflect the attitudes of the thick blacks to their surroundings and their own values.At the same time,environmental factors and differences in their own moral standards will also affect the thick blacks' attitudes to their surroundings.Conspiracy theories held in the event.Therefore,we have reason to believe that different circumstances and different moral standards have different influences on conspiracy theories held by the dark.In order to test this hypothesis,this research combines the experimental method with the questionnaire method,and aims to explore the influence of the moral concept of the thick black personality on the conspiracy theory belief in the special industry background.First studyused the questionnaire method to issue questionnaires through the use of questionnaire star software during the insurance industry internship process.Thetarget audience was mainly sales personnel in the insurance industry,and adults from senior,middle and grassroots leaders received a total of 184 valid questionnaires.In order to explore whether there is a positive correlation between the thick black personality and conspiracy theory and the mediating role played by moral evasion,it is found that in the context of the insurance industry,the thick black personality can positively predict conviction theories and further mediate effects The analysis found that moral evasion can positively promote the influence of thick black personality on conspiracy theories.Specifically,the higher the score for the black ethics,the higher the score in the moral evasion dimension,and the more they will believe in conspiracy theory;the lower the score for the black ethics,the lower the score in the moral evasion dimension,The lower the belief.In the second study,an experimental method was used to select 184 insurance employees and randomly divide them into two groups for manipulation,so as to further verify the moderating effect of moral evasion on conspiracy theories in different organizational atmospheres.SPSS PROCESS plug-in was used for regression analysis.The results showed that in a good organizational atmosphere,the level of conspiracy theory belief of those with high dark personalities was lower,while in a bad organizational atmosphere,they could not play a moderating role and supported the research hypothesis.In summary,the study reached the following conclusions.The dark personality has a significant positive predictive effect on conspiracy theories,and the relationship between the two is mediated by moral evasion.Meanwhile,organizational atmosphere plays a regulating role in the dark personality's influence on the conspiracy theory belief through moral evasion.Finally,this study also puts forward corresponding countermeasures and suggestions,as well as the reflection of the unfounded results of the second study,which has certain application value and.
