The present study explores the role of linguistic compositional characteristics in transmitting collective victimhood beliefs. Experimentally manipulated excerpts of history textbooks were used to examine the perception of the victim position of national outgroups and its intermediary social psychological processes with Hungarian (N = 415) and Finnish (N = 116) participants. The results reveal that the narrative composition of the victimhood narrative had a significant effect on the perception of the target groups' victimhood position. The evaluation of the groups changed according to which variant of the story was introduced. The results demonstrate that the perception of a perpetrator group can be changed purely by means of narrative construction and that their actions can acquire a "victim tone". This effect is present in both the Hungarian and Finnish samples, suggesting that narrating an event of victimhood has certain universal characteristics, although their effect is partially dependent on the national-historical-cultural context.

Adolescents commonly seek out pornography, which affects their attitudes and behaviours. Furthermore, the current COVID-19 pandemic saw an unprecedented increase in pornography consumption worldwide. However, adults appear generally reluctant to engage children and youth in discussions about online pornography consumption. This article provides a critical commentary on issues related to pornography use, with a focus on attitudes, beliefs, and behaviours as part of the sexual development of adolescents. It aims to raise awareness and recommend implementing prevention and intervention education about adolescent online pornography consumption and associated harms. To this end, a narrative review of the academic literature was conducted. The paper discusses the intentional use of pornography by adolescents, potential benefits, gender differences, theoretical considerations, and effects associated with sexual attitudes, beliefs, and behaviours. It suggests that online pornography use is an important contemporary social issue that requires attention. Recommendations include the need for education about the negative social, behavioural, and legal impacts of pornography use. Openly discussing sexual consent is critically important and a way to engage adolescents in prevention efforts. Additional research is needed to better understand the nature, extent, and impact of online pornography consumption on adolescents with regard to age, gender, and specific cultural backgrounds.

This study compared dating experiences through smartphone apps (e.g., Tinder) with offline-initiated dating. Previous research suggests that people feel greater apprehensiveness toward internet dating relative to traditional dating methods. Using an experience-sampling design (N = 793) over one month, we examined attraction, perceptions of dating partners (sexiness, warmth), and behaviors (sexual intercourse, alcohol) across dating modalities, and alongside trait sociosexuality, destiny/growth beliefs, romanticism, and gender. Results showed that participants reported experiences were similar for offline and app-initiated dates, except for those high in destiny/growth or romantic beliefs, who tended to feel less attraction to dating partners. Despite this similarity, participants viewed dating apps negatively. We also found little support for ideal partner preferences correlating with attraction or dating outcomes. We suggest that initial beliefs about dating may bias people away from dating app experiences, and personality traits such as romantic beliefs may dictate outcomes much more than the method of meeting.

Adolescence is a turbulent stage of development for both adolescents and their families. Family communication remains one of the major means to adjust to developmental tasks in this stage. Since personality traits have a profound effect on the process of communication, Dark Triad (DT) traits were hypothesized to negatively influence family communication. We wanted to further explore the actor and partner effects of family members’ DT traits on their perceptions of family communication. Ninety-eight families (N = 294) with convenience sampling were recruited for our study. All three family members (i.e., fathers, mothers, and adolescent children) reported their level of DT traits on the Short Dark Triad and perceived quality of family communication on the Communication scale of the Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scale-IV. We classified families based on members’ level of DT traits, but no significant difference in mothers', fathers', and adolescents' perceptions of family communication was found across types of families. Results of triadic extensions of the actor-partner interdependence model showed that mothers' and adolescents' levels of Machiavellianism negatively affected family communication as perceived by fathers and mothers, respectively. Fathers' level of narcissism affected adolescents’ perceptions of family communication negatively. Fathers' level of psychopathy had a negative effect on their own and mothers' perceptions of family communication. Results are in line with general findings about DT traits and highlight their influence in affecting family communication. Specific actor and partner effects are discussed with regard to family roles.

Self-continuity refers to the strategies individuals use to justify a stable sense of self despite the various changes they experience. Among young adults, in particular, self-continuity over time has been associated with indicators of mental health. The aim of the current project was to identify whether aspects of the social context are measurably distinct from other established strategies of self-continuity. Data were collected from emerging adults from the US Midwest (n = 309) and southern Brazil (n = 285). Self-continuity and its opposite, self-discontinuity, were measured, in addition to essentialism or narrativism and the social context as strategies. Structural equation modeling supported the contention that self-continuity is positively associated with strategies of essentialism, narrativism, and the social context. Models confirmed that the social context was measurably distinct from the other strategies of self-continuity and higher among older emerging adults. Finally, though the factor structure was largely identical between the two samples, some mean differences emerged.

While some research suggests that all types of parenting might be beneficial when the context is accounted for, a large body of literature has shown that warm parenting has the most beneficial outcomes for children. Additionally, because of the variable and discretionary role fathers often play, it is even more important to study the outcomes related to their parenting styles. The current study seeks to test relationships between parenting styles and the development of children's personality traits, specifically the development of Machiavellianism and conscientiousness. One hundred and seven undergraduate students (age 18-22) participated in the current study. The results suggest fathers who employ warm parenting styles showed significant effects on the development of children's personality traits. Moderation results showed an enhancing effect that as children's conscientiousness and warm fathers increased, children's Machiavellian personality scores decreased. Thus, a connection between parenting styles, conscientiousness, and Machiavellianism can be seen.

Prior research found that egoistic (vs. altruistic) messages were more effective in influencing the willingness to blood donation in Caucasian British students who were committed blood donors. We investigated what types of messages could effectively influence the blood donation intention of young Chinese students who had never donated blood (non-donors). Participants were asked to read a poster showing either an altruistic or egoistic message that was framed either positively or negatively. Results revealed that Chinese non-donors were more willing to donate blood when they read an altruistic rather than an egoistic message. The negatively-framed egoistic-focused message was the least effective in persuading Chinese non-donors to donate blood. Suggestions for future blood donation promotion campaigns and advertisements were made.

This article provides the first empirical evidence of the theoretical model by Badaan et al. (2020) that proposes social psychological mechanisms whereby utopian thinking, which activates the social imagination, could enhance collective action intentions geared toward progressive social change. We anticipated that imagining better societies via utopian thinking would (a) increase social hope, (b) promote an abstract mindset that bridges psychological distance between the status quo in the present and the imagined, better future, (c) attenuate system justification motives, and (d) enhance social change-oriented collective action intentions. Using a structural equation modeling approach, our study provides preliminary support for some postulates of the theoretical model, paving the way for future research to further disentangle the psychological mechanisms by which utopian thinking influences collective action geared toward social change.

Objectives: This study examined how childhood residential moves and non-normative school transitions are associated with a sense of belonging and depression in young adults, and how parental and peer relationships may serve as moderators of these associations. Methods: The participants were 487 young adults (358 females, 129 males; mean age = 19 years, age range = 17 to 30) who completed retrospective measures of family instability, parental and peer support (the Attachment History Questionnaire; Pottharst, 1990), depression (the Centre for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression scale; Kohout et al., 1993), and the Psychological scale from the Sense of Belonging Instrument (Hagerty & Patusky, 1995). Results: The bivariate associations for residential moves and school transitions were weak, but there were significant interactions involving parental attachment and peer support. The interaction patterns revealed that when parental attachment or peer support were high, sense of belonging was high and depression scores were low, even when there were many residential moves and school transitions. However, for people with more impoverished relationship contexts, outcomes were more positive (for six out of eight interactions) when there was more mobility. Conclusion: The findings provide a more nuanced perspective on the correlates of residential moves and school transitions than what has been previously reported in the literature.

The present study examines how sleep quantity and sleep quality are associated with online behavior, specifically acts of digital altruism. A total of 228 adult (mean age 40 years) participants residing in the United States, recruited through Facebook and Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk), completed an online survey assessing sleep quality and quantity, digital altruism, internet use, happiness, and personality. Correlation results show that sleep quantity was associated with performing digital altruism. Mediation analyses revealed that this direct association was fully mediated by happiness. Although sleep quality was not directly associated with performing digital altruism, it was indirectly associated with happiness. These results suggest that both more sleep and better sleep are associated with greater happiness, which in turn, is associated with performing more acts of digital altruism. Regression results further revealed that the direct association between sleep quantity and performing digital altruism was curvilinear, such that the association reverses with very high amounts of sleep. Results of this study extend previous findings that sleep quantity is associated with performing traditional altruism to online behavior. This study further highlights the importance of receiving sufficient sleep due to its association with increased happiness and more frequent acts of performing digital altruism, while simultaneously underscoring the need for future research regarding risks associated with excessive sleep.

A total of 228 adult (mean age 40 years) participants residing in the United States, recruited through Facebook and Amazon Mechanical Turk (MTurk), completed an online survey assessing sleep quality and quantity, digital altruism, internet use, happiness, and personality. Correlation results show that sleep quantity was associated with performing digital altruism. Mediation analyses revealed that this direct association was fully mediated by happiness. Although sleep quality was not directly associated with performing digital altruism, it was indirectly associated with happiness. These results suggest that both more sleep and better sleep are associated with greater happiness, which in turn, is associated with performing more acts of digital altruism. Regression results further revealed that the direct association between sleep quantity and performing digital altruism was curvilinear, such that the association reverses with very high amounts of sleep. Results of this study extend previous findings that sleep quantity is associated with performing traditional altruism to online behavior. This study further highlights the importance of receiving sufficient sleep due to its association with increased happiness and more frequent acts of performing digital altruism, while simultaneously underscoring the need for future research regarding risks associated with excessive sleep.","PeriodicalId":126206,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Psychology Research","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132786548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
