This research examined the effect of belief in feminist conspiracy theories and sexist ideology on endorsing rape myths. Study 1 ( N = 201) uncovered that the relationship between feminist conspiracy beliefs and rape myth acceptance was conditional on higher levels of hostile sexism. Study 2 ( N = 552) demonstrated that for those with higher hostile sexism, exposure to feminist conspiracy theories (vs. control) increased feminist conspiracy beliefs, which were then associated with rape myths. The current research suggests that the link between feminist conspiracy beliefs and rape myths could result from such beliefs upholding a hostile sexist view of women.

性别歧视和女权主义阴谋信仰：敌对性别歧视缓和女权主义阴谋信仰与强奸神话接受之间的联系

这项研究探讨了相信女权主义阴谋论和性别歧视意识形态对认可强奸神话的影响。研究 1（N = 201）发现，女权主义阴谋信仰与强奸神话接受之间的关系取决于较高程度的敌对性别歧视。研究 2（N = 552）表明，对于那些具有较高敌意性别歧视的人来说，接触女权主义阴谋论（相对于控制）会增加女权主义阴谋信念，从而与强奸神话联系在一起。目前的研究表明，女权主义阴谋信仰和强奸神话之间的联系可能是由于这种信仰支持对女性的敌对性别歧视观点。
