Gendered Self-Views Across 62 Countries
Social role theory posits that binary gender gaps in agency and communion should be larger in less egalitarian countries, reflecting these countries’ more pronounced sex-based power divisions. Conversely, evolutionary and self-construal theorists suggest that gender gaps in agency and communion should be larger in more egalitarian countries, reflecting the greater autonomy support and flexible self-construction processes present in these countrie…
Police and Cross-Cultural Psychology
Researchers of police psychology must be well-acquainted with police work and culture both nationally and organizationally. However, most studies developed in police psychology do not fully account for the national context within which a study was done. In this article review, we discuss two social phenomena commonly studied by police psychologists: aggression and violence. Taking primarily a cross-national approach, we focus on the predictive ro…
The revealing effect of power
OBJECTIVE: Values have been found to predict aggressive behavior in adolescents. Adolescents who endorse self-enhancement values typically exhibit more aggressive behaviors, while adolescents who endorse self-transcendent values are less likely to behave aggressively. The associations between values and aggression are low to moderate, suggesting that other factors might moderate them. The study examined whether these associations were moderated b…
Psychometric Properties and Correlates of Precarious Manhood Beliefs in 62 Nations
Precarious manhood beliefs portray manhood, relative to womanhood, as a social status that is hard to earn, easy to lose, and proven via public action. Here, we present cross-cultural data on a brief measure of precarious manhood beliefs (the Precarious Manhood Beliefs scale [PMB]) that covaries meaningfully with other cross-culturally validated gender ideologies and with country-level indices of gender equality and human development. Using data …
Country‐level and individual‐level predictors of men's support for gender equality in 42 countries
Men sometimes withdraw support for gender equality movements when their higher gender status is threatened. Here, we expand the focus of this phenomenon by examining it cross‐culturally, to test if both individual‐ and country‐level variables predict men's collective action intentions to support gender equality. We tested a model in which men's zero‐sum beliefs about gender predict reduced collective action intentions via an increase in hostile s…
Family and Socialization Factors in Brazil
The structure of the Brazilian family is related to five sub-cultures that, in turn, relate to the geographic regions of the country. This chapter presents a brief characterization of Brazilian culture and family, and describes changes in the structural relations and in the redefinition of models of Brazilian family organization. In order to illustrate the subtle interactions among social factors that influence the family in Brazil, we point out …
Acessibilidade crônica e agenda setting
O objetivo deste trabalho foi estudar o automatismo e a acessibilidade crônica, por meio da comparação entre a comunicação formal (mídia) e a informal (discurso verbal), testando a hipótese do agenda setting como uma possibilidade de investigação. O Estudo 1 foi realizado por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas a grupos diferentes de mulheres. O Estudo 2 foi de análise de conteúdo de revistas femininas baseado nas categorias encontradas no Estud…
Individualism–collectivism and business context as predictors of behaviors in cross-national work settings
Evidências de validade e precisão da escala de atitudes frente à Polícia
Numa sociedade repleta de crimes, é fundamental uma Polícia atuante, assim como pesquisas sobre as atitudes frentea esta instituição. No entanto, pouco se encontrou no contexto da psicologia nacional sobre a construção e validaçãode uma escala de atitudes diante da Polícia. Neste artigo se propõe tal medida para suprir esta lacuna. Os principaisresultados foram obtidos por meio da análise fatorial confirmatória, que corroborou a estrutura unifato…
