*“The 3M Model of False Belief” with Joe Pierre*
*/Skeptical Inquirer Presents/ | THIS THURSDAY (May 15)*
False beliefs are rampant throughout our culture—and imminently
consequential, influencing election outcomes and being used to justify
any number of policy decisions. So why do so many people cling to such
consequential beliefs, even when they’re demonstrably untrue? While many
have cited everything from anti-intellectualism to mass delusion to
explain this phenomenon, Joe Pierre points to the “3M Model” to understand.

livestream with *Joe Pierre*, a professor of psychiatry at the
University of California, San Francisco and author of /FALSE: How
Mistrust, Disinformation, and Motivated Reasoning Make Us Believe Things
That Aren't True/. Pierre’s 3M Model—based on mistrust, misinformation,
and motivated reasoning—helps explain the psychology of false belief and
offers a more normalizing and humanizing framework to understand both
our ideological opposites and ourselves. His presentation includes key
lessons from his new book and presents potential remedies based on the
3M Model.
