This study explores the impact of conspiracy ideation, moral disengagement, and intolerance of uncertainty on compliance with anti-SARS-COV-2 social distancing rules and people's reactions toward the coronavirus crisis. The findings suggest that conspiracy ideation and moral disengagement lead to lower assessments of virus risk and lower compliance with confinement measures.
This study investigated the effect of conspiracy ideation, moral disengagement, and intolerance of uncertainty on compliance with the anti-SARS-COV-2 social distancing rules and two other facets of people's reactions toward the coronavirus crisis. A convenience sample of 245 Romanians completed an online survey in March 2020. Results indicate that conspiracy ideation is associated with lower assessments of virus risk and lower compliance with the confinement measures. Moral disengagement had a parallel effect of undermining personal compliance to the social distancing regulations, highlighting the need to define social distancing as morally relevant and prevent individual justifications for noncompliance.
