Implicit and Explicit Conspiracy Associations Toward LGBT People Among Cis-Heterosexual and LGBT Participants
Conspiracy beliefs targeting LGBT people have gained attention in recent years, yet research on these beliefs remains limited and relies exclusively on explicit measures that are vulnerable to social desirability biases. Across three studies (Ntot = 565), we introduce the first implicit measure of such beliefs by assessing automatic associations between “LGBT people” and conspiracy-related concepts using the standard Implicit Association Test (IA…
Traditional intimate partner violence and cyber dating abuse among gay, lesbian, and heterosexual individuals. The role of minority stress, alcohol use and jealousy
Perceived Social Isolation and Conspiracy Mentality: Exploring Pathways to Anti‐LGBTQ+ Conspiracy Beliefs
Conspiracy beliefs have long been a recurring feature of human society; however, when they target disadvantaged groups, such as the LGBTQ+ people, they represent a particularly harmful phenomenon with detrimental consequences. Despite the increasing interest in the phenomenon, research to date has often overlooked the influence of an individual social environment. Indeed, recent evidence highlighted that individuals who experience limited social …
Conspiratorial threat and intergroup boundaries: How exposure to anti-LGBTQ+ narratives shapes beliefs, identity, and civic engagement
Nowadays, the use of conspiratorial narratives targeting marginalized groups, such as the LGBTQ+ community, is increasingly pervasive. These narratives depict LGBTQ+ people as a threat to the social order, undermining their rights and social inclusion. Across four studies ( N = 2111), we experimentally investigated whether exposure to an anti-LGBTQ+ conspiratorial narrative affects conspiracy beliefs and civic engagement among cis-heterosexual pe…
Attitudes towards school-based affective and sexual educational (Asase) programmes scale: Preliminary validation and psychometric properties
Affective and sexual education contribute significantly to the development of the social and emotional skills necessary to raise aware and empathetic adults. Attitudes towards these programmes play a crucial role in their acceptance and are essential to their successful promotion and implementation. Therefore, this research developed and preliminarily tested a scale to assess attitudes regarding school-based affective and sexual education program…
LGBTQ+ conspiracy beliefs and collective actions: Factors and processes that (de)motivate support for LGBTQ+ equality
Recent times are characterized by increased participation in collective action that either supports or opposes greater equality for LGBTQ+ individuals. In this research, we focus on the Italian context, where both forms of collective action are highly present, and examine the role of LGBTQ+ conspiracy beliefs (i.e., beliefs that a powerful LGBTQ+ lobby exist that operates secretly to pursue its plans against cis‐heterosexual people and spread hom…
More than Invisible – Unimaginable: Parenthood aspirations among transgender and nonbinary people in Italy
Transgender and nonbinary people’s experiences are distinct from cisgender people’s experiences, and relatively little is known with respect to their desire for parenthood or to remain childfree. This study aimed to explore aspirations about parenthood among fifteen trans men and women (n = 7) and nonbinary adults (n = 8) without children from Italy, adopting a life course theory approach. Employing thematic analysis, we identified three overarch…
Do Not Judge Inner Experience, but Be Mindful: Dispositional Mindfulness, Internalized Sexual Stigma, and Positive Identity in Lesbian, Gay, and Bisexual People
Introduction Research showed that dispositional mindfulness has positive associations with LGB people’s well-being and is negatively associated with internalized sexual stigma. However, previous research has investigated the role of dispositional mindfulness in the development of LGB individuals’ positive acceptance of their own sexual identity is still limited. This study aims to investigate the association between dispositional mindfulness, int…
Exploring the Joint Role of Outgroup Identification and Empathic Concern in Reducing Perceived Immigrant Threat and Motivating Pro-Immigrant Collective Action
The research explored the role of outgroup identification and empathic concern in reducing perceived outgroup threat and favoring collective action against social inequality. We implemented two distinct correlational Studies focused on the issue of the racial pay gap in Italy. Study 1 (N = 604) highlighted that Italian natives' identification with immigrants related to a reduced perceived immigrant threat through enhanced empathic concern toward …
Dispositional mindfulness and the nonjudgmental regard towards others: The role on sexual prejudice and transphobia among cisgender heterosexual people
Although several studies examined the relationship between high levels of dispositional mindfulness and low scores of prejudices referred to various social groups, the findings have sometimes been inconsistent. Such inconsistency may be explained by the fact that much research has relied exclusively on self-oriented dispositional mindfulness as predictor of intergroup biases, thus underestimating the role of the nonjudgmental regard towards other…
Self-directedness mediates the association of child abuse and neglect experiences with personality pathology
It is well established that the exposure to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) may alter the the development of personality. Nevertheless, only a part of individuals exposed to ACEs actually develop Personality Disorders (PDs). According to the alternative model of PDs, impairments in dimensional self-aspects, i.e., Identity and Self-direction (SD), may represent potential candidates to promote the transition from ACEs to PDs. We analysed patie…
Antecedent Ideological Profiles and Negative Socio-political Outcomes of LGBTQ+ Conspiracy Beliefs
Introduction Conspiracy theories and beliefs (CTBs) about LGBTQ+ people are often used as arguments in political debate in Italy and across Europe to hinder the passing of protective laws and negatively affect popular consensus regarding the promotion of anti-discrimination policies and the advancement of civil rights. Method We conducted two correlational studies in Italy starting the data collection at the end of 2022. In Study 1 ( N = 589), we…
Attitudes Toward Heterosexual and Lesbian Stepmothers: An Experimental Test in the Italian Context
This experimental study examines attitudes toward stepmothers in the Italian context and predicts that negative attitudes towards heterosexual and lesbian stepmothers - compared to heterosexual biological mothers - would be higher at higher levels of gender role stereotypes. One hundred and eighty-nine Italian participants completed an online questionnaire in which they read one of three vignettes regarding a mother - (1) heterosexual biological …
Employment, collective action, and satisfaction: The moderating role of acceptance of inequality
The present work proposes that the relation of employment conditions (i.e., unemployment and precarious work vs. permanent employment) with participation in collective action and satisfaction with life depends on the extent to which acceptance of inequality is high or low, and that collective action mediates the association between employment conditions and satisfaction with life. We analyzed data from the European Social Survey (Round 8, 2016) a…
Measuring predictors of psychopathology in Italian adolescents: Forgiveness, avoidance and revenge
Gendered Self-Views Across 62 Countries: A Test of Competing Models
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…
Gay, Lesbian, and Bisexual (LGB) peoples' leadership self-effectiveness: The roles of internalized sexual stigma, LGB positive identity, and traditional masculinity
Grounded in the theoretical frameworks of the minority stress model and the model of positive identity in sexual minority people, the current research contributes to fill a gap in the previous literature, investigating the relationships among leadership self-effectiveness, internalized sexual stigma, positive identity, and adherence to traditional masculinity of gay, lesbian, and bisexual (LGB) individuals. Through a correlational study ( N = 449…

Dispositional Mindfulness in Heterosexual and Lesbian/Bisexual Women: Associations with Sexual Prejudice and Internalized Sexual Stigma
This research investigated the effect of dispositional mindfulness on the reduction of sexual prejudice and internalized sexual stigma in heterosexual and lesbian/bisexual women, who still represent a population that is under-represented in the scientific literature. Participants were 203 Italian women, both heterosexual (N = 104, 51.2%) and lesbian/bisexual (N= 99, 48.8%), ranging between 18 and 68 years old. They responded to a questionnaire co…
Examining and understanding patterns of cognitive, emotional, and behavioral jealousy: Dispositional Mindfulness as a protective factor in romantic relationships
The present research proposes that dispositional mindfulness may play a key role in our understanding of romantic jealousy, conceptualized as a multidimensional construct consisting of three components: cognitive, emotional, and behavioral. All three components involve experiencing an outside threat, but diverse aspects of the experience are implied: cognitive jealousy entails thoughts and suspicions, emotional jealousy entails affective response…

Conspiracy beliefs of Italian voters for populist parties: The moderated mediational role of political interest and ideological attitudes
Grounded in the theoretical framework of the dual-process motivational model of ideology and politics, we investigated the mediational role of RWA and SDO on the relationship between voting for populist parties and conspiracy beliefs; the moderation of political interest was also explored. Collapsing different convenience samples gathered after the European election (2014/2015) and the General National Election (2018/2019) allowed us to analyse t…
Sexual Orientation and Infidelity-Related Behaviors on Social Media Sites
Little research has been focused on offline or online infidelity in GL dating relationships, especially in a post-communist socio-cultural context. Infidelity-related (IR) behaviors on social media sites might be as hurtful to relationships as offline infidelity, both in gay, lesbian (GL) and heterosexual romantic monogamous relationships. In this cross-sectional study, we aimed to examine the associations between dyadic satisfaction, attitudes t…

We used data from the E…
Attitudes and Beliefs of Italian Educators and Teachers Regarding Children Raised by Same-Sex Parents
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…
Gender stereotypes and contact with gay men and lesbians: The mediational role of sexism and homonegativity
This study is grounded in Allport's intergroup contact theory and Herek's sexual prejudice theory. We aimed at (a) investigating the mediational role of sexism and homonegativity on the relation between gender, age, and contact with gay and lesbian people with gender stereotypes about gay men and lesbians; and (b) replicating and corroborating the direct associations found in previous research among these variables. The present research used seco…

Lesbians’ Negative Affect Toward Sexual Minority People with Stereotypical Masculine and Feminine Characteristics
We investigated lesbians’ negative affect toward gay and lesbian scenarios with feminine/negative characteristics. Seventy-one Italian lesbians responded to self-report questionnaires. Analyses tested that feminine gay man scenario (GF) would elicit negative affect more than the other three scenarios (feminine/masculine lesbian woman and masculine gay man) and that participants’ internalized sexual stigma would be a moderator of the relation betw…
Gender Roles and Internalized Sexual Stigma in Gay and Lesbian Persons: A Quadratic Relation
Purpose: No previous research has deeply investigated the association between gay men and lesbians’ adherence to gender roles and their internalized sexual stigma.

Masculinity and Leadership Effectiveness (Self-)Perceptions: The Case of Lesbian Leaders
In line with the gay glass ceiling effect, sexual minorities are often target of discrimination within work-related contexts, thus potentially undermining their wellbeing at work. For gay men, discrimination may partially be attributed to gay men's stereotypical feminine perception, which does not fit with the stereotypically masculine traits required for leadership positions. Yet, when considering lesbian women, the masculine stereotypical view …
