About this document
Do The Barnum Effect and Paranormal Belief Involve A General Gullibility Factor by Yilbert Oswaldo Jimenez Cano is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The study examined whether belief in paranormal phenomena and susceptibility to the Barnum effect involve a general gullibility factor. A questionnaire found paranormal belief correlated with belief in other statements, but the Barnum effect did not, indicating it is specific to personality judgments. This suggests paranormal belief may involve a general tendency toward credulity, unlike the Barnum effect.
