Psychology says people who still believe in superstitions aren't irrational: What this behavior reveals?

Psychology says people who still believe in superstitions aren't necessarily irrational. Superstitions can help people manage uncertainty, reduce anxiety and feel a sense of control. Psychology links this behaviour to magical thinking, pattern recognition, reinforcement and confirmation bias. Rituals can provide comfort during stressful moments, but they should not replace preparation, effort or practical decisions in daily life.
