Cynicism, low self-worth, uncertainty, powerlessness correlate with conspiracy belief.

Explanation:

The best predictor of belief in a conspiracy theory is belief in other conspiracy theories,” says  a psychology professor who studies conspiracy belief at the University of Westminster in England. Psychologists say that’s because a conspiracy theory isn’t so much a response to a single event.

Anxiety makes people to accept the conspiracy. many conspiracies are scary and attract attention. An important trait among conspiracy theorists is paranoia.
