The Gullibility Project


Gullibility = credulousness: tendency to believe too readily and therefore to be easily deceived.

Pawn = a person used by another to gain an end (Also known as a sucker or a chump).



The Gullibility Project is a research study into why Pawns tend to believe too readily and therefore to be deceived. The psychology of behavior is a popular area of inquiry. Studies of attitudes, beliefs, trust, regret, sexual orientation, and persuasion, etc., are common. This is an investigation into the motives for responding as a pawn.
