title: Right-wing authoritarianism and conspiracy thinking in a Polish sample.
abstract: The relationships among scores for right-wing authoritarianism and conspiracy thinking toward Jews, Arabs, Germans, and Russians were examined. 354 volunteer high school students were assessed using the Right-Wing Authoritarianism Three-Dimensional (RWA3D) Scale and the Conspiracy Beliefs Scale. The scores for conspiracy thinking about all the nationalities were positively correlated with the total scores for RWA3D.
