Why Do People Believe in Conspiracy Theories?

A while ago, I made a video about illiteracy, and one of the comments on the video was that the opening statistics were incredibly depressing, even for me. Ahem 10% of Americans believe that the Earth is possibly flat. 12% of Americans believe that the US government is mandating fluorescent light bulbs because they make people easier to control. 35% of Americans believe that the FDA and the drug companies in America are sitting on the cure to cancer. So what causes some people to be more susceptible to belief in conspiracy theories? There appear to be a number of cognitive, social, cultural, political, and historical factors involved. As ever, it's complicated. Here, I explore some of the scientific research on these factors.
