Multiple Selves
This study examines the semantic content of identity among members of grassroots organisations to investigate how activists' self‐concepts reflect politicised collective identity. Using an identity content approach, 128 Italian activists were asked to complete an associative recall task in which they described themselves and their group. Thematic analysis identified distinct identity components that were interpreted as ‘possible selves’, includin…
Basic human values and sense of community as resource and responsibility
The study aimed at exploring the relationship between basic human values and sense of community (SOC). Specifically, it aimed at identifying which types of values exert an impact, whether these values are consistent with SOC as a resource and responsibility (SOC‐R), and whether the values‐SOC/SOC‐R relations change according to some community characteristics (i.e., stability and cohesion). The 1,334 participants in the survey were based in differ…
Psychometric properties of the Italian version of the sense of community responsibility scale
The central aim of the present research was to examine the psychometric properties of adapted versions of the sense of community (SOC) responsibility scale in three Italian samples. We examined the psychometric properties of three modified versions of the sense of community responsibility (SOC‐R) scale. Consistent with the original scale, exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses demonstrated that the scale was unidimensional and exhibited exc…
Do men post and women view? The role of gender, personality and emotions in online social activity
According to Nadkarni and Hofmann’s model (2012), a major motivator of social networking sites (SNS) use is the need to belong, i.e., the basic drive to form and maintain relationships. This need can be fulfilled through two kinds of belongingness-related behaviours: information-seeking (using SNS to learn about others) and communication (using SNS to communicate with others). The present study aimed at examining the role of gender, personality t…
The Relationship between Local Identification, Urban Disorder Sensitivity, and Prejudice Toward Immigrants
Highlights Local identification is related to both autochthony and sensitivity to urban disorder. Local identification is directly and indirectly associated with ethnic prejudice. Autochthony is a powerful ideology that can trigger exclusionary responses
The two sides of Islamophobia and the perception of threat from Islamic terrorists
There is a heightened interest concerning the understanding of prejudice toward Muslims in Europe, steadily increasing since 2001. This study aimed at investigating whether the phenomenon of Islamophobia could have two different manifestations (i.e., Islamoprejudice and Secular Critique of Islam). In particular, we assessed whether two social attitudes, Right‐Wing Authoritarianism (RWA, i.e., authoritarian aggression, and conservatism) and Social…
The Effect of Sexism and Rape Myths on Victim Blame
The influence of coping strategies on quality of life in a community facing environmental and economic threats
The study investigated the quality of life in a community facing a technological disaster causing environmental and economic damages. For years, the Italian city of Taranto has based its economy on a big steel plant. The industrial plant caused severe environmental pollution, negatively affecting the health of residents living in an area of the city. The steel mill is now under judicial investigation and may be closed in the future, causing the l…
Gender Stereotyping in Newspaper Advertisements
The objective of the present study was to investigate the presence of gender stereotypes concerning occupational roles and sexualization in newspaper advertisements of two European countries very different for cultural values and gender equality, that is, Italy and the Netherlands. The top three newspapers by circulation in each country were selected. We included all the issues of these newspapers published in 1 month. We selected all the adverti…

Different Predictors of Quality of Life in Urban Environment
The Influence of Length of Stay, Linguistic Competence, and Media Exposure in Immigrants' Adaptation
Empirical evidence shows that immigrants adapt best in relation to their ability to negotiate between the cultural entities they confront. Factors such as cultural knowledge, length of stay in the new culture, and linguistic competence strongly influence this process. Length of stay and linguistic competence may be essential for cultural knowledge acquisition that, in turn, may be enhanced by mass media consumption. A questionnaire is completed b…
A preliminary study for a new model of sense of community
Although Sense of Community (SOC) is usually defined as a multidimensional construct, most SOC scales are unidimensional. To reduce the split between theory and empirical research, the present work identifies a multifactor structure for the Italian Sense of Community Scale (ISCS) that has already been validated as a unitary index of SOC. This study was carried out in two steps: (a) a confirmatory factor analysis was conducted of a three-factor st…
