This study explored the relationship between incel-related predictors, including loneliness, rejection, attractiveness, number of sexual and romantic partners, gaming, and right-wing authoritarianism and hostility towards women among men in a more general population in the UK. Based on previous research, we postulated seven hypotheses outlining our expected findings. The results showed that right-wing authoritarianism was the strongest predictor, with a significant positive relationship with hostility towards women supporting Hypothesis 6. As expected, the squared version of attractiveness significantly and positively predicted hostility towards women, supporting a convex curvilinear relationship postulated in Hypothesis 4. A significant curvilinear relationship was also found between sexual partners and hostility towards women, but with another shape (concave) than we expected, thus not supporting Hypothesis 5, as men with some sexual partners were more hostile towards women than those with few or many partners. Surprisingly, loneliness, rejection, and romantic partners did not significantly predict hostility towards women. Hence, hypotheses 1, 2, and 3 were not supported. Additionally, the results provided varied support for the relationship between gaming and hostility towards women: only gaming addiction significantly predicted hostility towards women in the adjusted model, with a weak relationship with misogyny and the non-hostile sexism subscale. Thus, our findings do not lend convincing support for Hypothesis 7.
Kek, IT won't touch this
It's probably bullshit though, "self-reported sex partners" as if anyone is gonna tell the truth
