Abstract

The United Nations Agenda 2030, inclusive of its 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs), serves as the global blueprint for sustainability for both present and future generations. Scientific research is entrusted with the responsibility of contributing by informing the current situation and future challenges in achieving the SDGs. This paper investigates the role of social psychology in contributing to the SDGs and the environmental, economic and social pillars of the UN Agenda. We analysed 4808 papers using Natural Language Processing to identify (i) the relevance of social psychology within the SDG-related literature and (ii) the current and potential contribution of social psychology to the SDGs. Results highlight that social psychology contributes to the SDGs by addressing typical social issues, primarily those related to health and gender, while noting its under-representation in some environmental and economic areas, despite social psychology well-established research on these topics. This paper introduces a novel approach for assessing the SDGs, fostering a critical reflection on the SDG framework and social psychology to guide less explored research paths. This approach could potentially enhance the evaluation and advancement of the 2030 Agenda, facilitating a deeper dialogue between the scientific community and policymakers, driving social change.

可持续挑战:社会心理学在实现可持续发展目标中的地位?
联合国 2030 年议程包括 17 项可持续发展目标(SDGs),是当代人和子孙后代实现可 持续发展的全球蓝图。科学研究肩负着为实现可持续发展目标的现状和未来挑战提供信息的责任。本文研究了社会心理学在促进可持续发展目标以及联合国议程的环境、经济和社会支柱方面的作用。我们使用自然语言处理技术分析了 4808 篇论文,以确定:(i) 社会心理学在可持续发展目标相关文献中的相关性;(ii) 社会心理学对可持续发展目标的当前和潜在贡献。研究结果表明,社会心理学通过解决典型的社会问题(主要是与健康和性别相关的问题)为可持续发展目标做出了贡献,同时也注意到社会心理学在一些环境和经济领域的代表性不足,尽管社会心理学在这些主题上的研究已经非常成熟。本文介绍了一种评估可持续发展目标的新方法,促进对可持续发展目标框架和社会心理学进行批判性反思,以指导探索较少的研究路径。这种方法有可能加强对 2030 年议程的评估和推进,促进科学界与决策者之间更深入的对话,推动社会变革。

期刊介绍: The British Journal of Social Psychology publishes work from scholars based in all parts of the world, and manuscripts that present data on a wide range of populations inside and outside the UK. It publishes original papers in all areas of social psychology including: • social cognition • attitudes • group processes • social influence • intergroup relations • self and identity • nonverbal communication • social psychological aspects of personality, affect and emotion • language and discourse Submissions addressing these topics from a variety of approaches and methods, both quantitative and qualitative are welcomed. We publish papers of the following kinds: • empirical papers that address theoretical issues; • theoretical papers, including analyses of existing social psychological theories and presentations of theoretical innovations, extensions, or integrations; • review papers that provide an evaluation of work within a given area of social psychology and that present proposals for further research in that area; • methodological papers concerning issues that are particularly relevant to a wide range of social psychologists; • an invited agenda article as the first article in the first part of every volume. The editorial team aims to handle papers as efficiently as possible. In 2016, papers were triaged within less than a week, and the average turnaround time from receipt of the manuscript to first decision sent back to the authors was 47 days.
