It's called the American Conspiracy Thinking Scale (ACTS).

Answer these four questions on a five-point, “strongly disagree” (1) to “strongly agree” (5) scale. Add up your score (out of 20 possible points).

I scored 13 and was surprised at how that was.Turns out I'm more conspiracy-minded than I thought. 😕

What did you score and how do you feel about the results?

Black text on a white background. Very plain; no ornamentation, it says:


American Conspiracy Thinking Scale (ACTS).

1.  Much of our lives are being controlled by plots hatched in secret places.

2.  Even though we live in a democracy, a few people will always run things anyway.

3.  The people who really “run” the country are not known to the voters.

4.  Big events like wars, the current recession, and the outcomes of elections are controlled by small groups of people who are working in secret against the rest of us.

The official shelf life is 45 days. Twinkies normally remain on a store shelf for 7 to 10 days. #interesting

Christopher Columbus' efforts to obtain support for his voyages were not hampered by belief in a flat Earth, but by valid worries that the East Indies were farther than he realized. In fact, Columbus grossly underestimated the Earth's circumference because of two calculation errors. The myth that Columbus proved the Earth was round was propagated by authors like Washington Irving in A History of the Life and Voyages of Christopher Columbus. #interesting
