Gordon Pennycook, a doctoral student in psychology at the University of Waterloo, Canada, and his team have done research and pointed out that people who believe in and often share inspirational texts are less intelligent and believe in conspiracy theories, supernatural phenomena, and alternative therapies. There is also a tendency for religious fanaticism.

The Penny Cook team conducted a "four-step experiment" with more than 300 people. They pieced together buzzwords into a grammatical sentence and turned it into meaningless "nonsense", such as "wet people are not afraid of rain". Let these The experimenters scored on a scale of 1-5. As a result, it was found that those who rated these "nonsense" high scores had low cognitive ability.

Penny Cook believes that this research can help us better understand this kind of people who love to read inspirational texts, but this research is also questioned. Some people think that it is not enough to judge by this research alone, and think that this research is not rigorous enough.
