How Narrative Functions in Entertainment to Communicate Science
Entertainment media can use storytelling—narrative tools like drama, characterization, and conflict—to draw audiences deeper into scientific content. Without careful scrutiny of the content being conveyed, entertainment has the potential to distort scientific knowledge and warp beliefs, but entertainment also has the useful power to capture attention, increase engagement, and promote the understanding and enjoyment of science. Narratives are the …
Individual Breaches of Environmental Laws in Cases from Public Administration Files
The characteristics of environmental transgressions and transgressors involved in 1,505 files handled by 4 public administrations were assessed. These administrations were in charge of environmental law enforcement in a highly protected setting, across federal, state, island, and municipality jurisdictions. Special attention was given to the transgressors' written responses to administrative sanctions included in the files. These were analyzed in…
A Functional Approach to Volunteerism
A central premise of the functional approach is that the same behavior may serve different functions for different individuals. More recently, this approach has been used to understand the motives behind volunteering. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether certain volunteer tasks (e.g., reading to the blind, entering data) differentially satisfy certain motives (e.g., expression of values, career building) and whether individuals pr…
On the Virtues of Assuming Minimal Differences in Information Processing in Individuals and Groups
The metaphor of groups as information processors has been gaining in popularity. If this metaphor’s utility is to be fully exploited, it is first necessary to distinguish - conceptually, theoretically, and empirically - when and how information processing in groups is any different from information processing in individuals. In this paper, several varieties or levels of group information processing are first conceptually distinguished. It is argu…
Racism and the Social Judgment Process
Based on a framework suggested by information integration theory, this study examined how prejudice affects the use of stereotypes when forming social judgments. Participants reviewed applications for a minority scholarship and rated their liking for each applicant. Embedded in the applications were trait descriptions that varied in the amount, stereotypicality, and valence of the information provided. Evaluations by high-prejudice participants w…
Effects of Differential Status of Group Members on Process and Outcome of Deliberation
Decision making groups, including European juries, often contain factions differing in status. Mock juries composed of trained and layperson status factions decided guilt and punishment for realistic cases of university code violations. Cases presented predominantly intellective or judgmental issues, and juries had to justify verdicts according to facts alone, or facts and values. Compared to laypersons, trained factions influenced group decision…

Attraction toward Another as a Function of Similarity and Commonality of Attitudes
One approach in accounting for the direct relationship between attitude similarity and attraction is to treat agreement as a reinforcer, providing reward through consensual validation. It was hypothesized that agreement should therefore lead to greater attraction in minority opinion Ss than in majority Ss. Minority or majority Ss compared attitudinal responses on an important or unimportant topic with a confederate who agreed with either 25% or 7…

Are the Principles of Behavior of “Exceptional Children” Exceptional
The thesis was presented that behavioral differences in groups of “exceptional” children do not imply different principles of behavior are applicable to each group, as is often suggested, but instead are consequents of differences in learning capacity and modified environmental conditions associated with the exceptionality. Methodological problems in the identification of unique characteristics of the exceptional child were discussed, and it was …
