RESUMO: People's political support for therapeutic practice of sexual reorientation may be motivated by the homophobic prejudice driven by conservative groups. In this article, we analyze the problem of political support for sexual reorientation (SSR) by proposing the hypothesis that this support is motivated by conservatism and that this relationship is mediated by prejudice against gay individuals. We also propose that the role of prejudice in the relationship between conservatism and PSSR is moderated by beliefs about the nature of homosexuality. We tested these hypotheses in three studies. In Study 1 (N = 249), we found that conservative values predict PSSR, and this effect is partly mediated by prejudice. In Study 2 (N = 247), we replicated this mediation and found that it was moderated by ethical-religious beliefs and psychological beliefs about the nature of homosexuality. Study 3 (N = 210) went further by experimentally showing the political consequences of PSSR. Through sequential mediation, we showed that more conservative individuals tend to absolve psychologists who practice sexual reorientation. Taken together, the results of this research have important implications for understanding the political significance of PSSR and the psychosocial process that motivates social support for its implementation.
