Effects of Psychological Distance on Mental Abstraction: A Registered Report of Four Tests of Construal-Level Theory
Construal-level theory (CLT) proposes that psychological distance influences the level of abstraction at which something is mentally construed: Things perceived as less probable (likelihood) or further away from the here (spatial distance), now (temporal distance), or self (social distance) are thought about more abstractly. In this international multilab study, we tested four basic hypotheses derived from core assumptions of CLT and explore pote…
How Do We Perceive Our Relations With Animals? The Predominance of Relational Nature and Physical Capacity
Percepción social de la conducta de los españoles en materia medioambiental
En esta investigación se examina la relación entre la conducta individual de las personas y su percepción social sobre la conducta de los españoles en materia medioambiental dentro del marco teórico de los sesgos cognitivos de falso consenso y falsa unicidad. Se hizo uso de una encuesta realizada por el CIS (2005; estudio n.o 2590) sobre una muestra representativa de la población española formada por 2.490 participantes. Los resultados muestran q…
The influence of individual differences and local ecological conditions on emotional empathy, cognitive empathy, and harm avoidance towards nonhuman animals
Increased interest in the study of the relationships between human and nonhuman animals over the past few decades has often focused on what factors shape people’s attitudes and treatment towards nonhuman animals. Some scholars have focused on features of the nonhuman animals (cuteness, intelligence, and utility) and how those features predict human behavior while others have concentrated more on possible human individual differences that influenc…
An environmental psychology perspective on the confinement caused by Covid-19 ( Un enfoque psicoambiental del confinamiento a causa del Covid-19 )
This text presents some reflections from an environmental psychology perspective on how prolonged confinement due to the COVID-19 pandemic is affecting the general population and what the consequences might be for future research in the field
Desenredando el Ambiente: Valores y Afectos Asociados a los Animales en Estudiantes de Psicología de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires, Argentina
El medio ambiente se ha considerado tradicionalmente como una entidad unitaria sin prestar atención a los distintos elementos que lo componen (suelo, agua, atmósfera, flora, fauna y los procesos que los inter-relacionan). Por ello, la adscripción de motivaciones de tipo biocéntrico o antropocéntrico a las personas se ha realizado en relación con el medio ambiente global. Esta investigación presta atención a uno de los elementos del medio ambiente…
The Relationships between Economic Scarcity, Concrete Mindset and Risk Behavior: A Study of Nicaraguan Adolescents
Background : Nicaragua is one of the poorest countries in Latin America, with an extremely low human development index (HDI). Fifty-two percent of the Nicaraguan population are children and adolescents under 18 years of age. Nicaraguan adolescents present several risk behaviors (such as teenage pregnancies, consumption of alcohol, tobacco, cannabis). Our study examines the links between risk behaviors, fatalism, real economic scarcity, and concre…
Stereotypes, emotions, and behaviors associated with animals: A causal test of the stereotype content model and Bias map
Using the stereotype content model (SCM; Fiske, Cuddy, Glick, & Xu, 2002) and the behaviors from intergroup affect and stereotypes (BIAS) map (Cuddy, Fiske, & Glick, 2007), two experiments tested the effect of animal stereotypes on emotions and behavioral tendencies toward animals. As a novel approach, Study 1 ( N = 165) manipulated warmth and competence traits of a fictitious animal species (“wallons”) and tested their effect on emotions and beh…
Fantasia: Being emotionally involved with a stereotyped target changes stereotype warmth
Health-related quality of life, ethnicity and perceived discrimination among immigrants and natives in Spain
Clear differences in health status among natives and immigrants were recorded. The self-selection hypothesis was plausible for physical health of Colombians and Sub-Saharan African men. Acculturation stress could explain poorer mental health in immigrants compared with natives. The association between ethnicity and poor self-reported mental health appears to be partially mediated by discrimination
