"Chaos may make you see 'things'" by Colin Nickerson, Globe Correspondent | October 6, 2008
Confusing times make for dangerous times, suggests new research that serves as a caution during the current financial crisis. The possibility of an economic meltdown is bad enough. Worse might be a hasty response born of little more than the powerful human need to impose order - even false order - on a riotous world.
Tell it to the Zionist war mongers trying to subjugate the planet, asshole!
Research published in last week's journal Science doesn't address the pros and cons of any specific economic or political policy. But experiments done by Adam Galinsky, social psychologist and professor at Northwestern University in Illinois, and Jennifer Whitson, professor of management at the University of Texas-Austin, demonstrated that people who can't make sense of an out-of-control situation will trick themselves into seeing patterns or drawing connections that don't exist.
Sometimes they turn to seemingly senseless rituals or superstitions. In extreme instances, they can adopt bizarre conspiracy theories as a way of coping.
Oh, like 9/11 Truth or JFK, huh? The author implies it, even if he doesn't say it.
"Even bad answers feel better to people than no answers," Galinsky said. "The less control people have over their lives, the more likely they are to seek quick, easy solutions, however implausible." In six experiments involving 225 subjects, the researchers asked individuals to make sense of complex scenarios, ranging from making stock market picks to interpreting confusing situations in which other people seemed to be secretly sharing information.
"People found false patterns in all sorts of data, imagining trends in stock markets, seeing faces that weren't there, and detecting conspiracies between acquaintances," Whitson said. "This suggests that lacking control creates a visceral need for order - even imaginary order."
In one experiment, people were shown pictures that contained "snowy" swirls hiding true images - such as boats, and furniture - which nearly all identified correctly. But another group, subjected to psychological measures that eroded their sense of control, was presented pictures that held just random scatterings of dots. Yet they "found" patterns of horses, circles, trees, faces - in 43 percent of wholly illusory images.
In situations where people feel only moderately out of control, Galinsky said, they might turn to quirky but harmless beliefs - wearing lucky socks or knocking on wood. But in times of immense crisis, individuals and societies can turn to behavior with ruinous consequences. Blaming Jews or Arabs for global ills, for example, or declaring ill-conceived wars. "When the world is uncertain, we grasp at straws," Galinsky said. --more--"
