Social disparities in health behaviours: The role of class‐related behavioural norms and social class identification
Inequalities in health behaviours (i.e., the tendency of socially disadvantaged people, compared to more advantaged people, to engage in fewer healthy behaviours) have been mostly accounted for by individual and environmental factors. The present research proposed to consider a social identity perspective by examining the combined impact of class‐related norms and social class identification on intentions to engage in healthy behaviours. Based on…
More Royalist Than the King? Immigration Policy Attitudes Among Naturalized Citizens
Social psychological research has analyzed immigration attitudes mostly from the perspective of natives without an immigrant background. Nevertheless, an increasing number of migrants obtain national citizenship and take a stance towards immigration policies. By studying immigration policy attitudes reported by naturalized citizens, this article develops a dual‐pathway model of immigrant political incorporation featuring pathways of either absorp…
The identification-similarity relationship as a function of ingroup status: A social identity perspective
This research examined the role of ingroup status in the relationship between ingroup identification and self-ingroup similarity. Studies 1a-1b showed that this relationship was stronger in low-status groups than in high-status groups, suggesting that high identifiers from the low-status group seek collective support by assimilating to the ingroup, whereas low identifiers get rid of the unsatisfactory group membership by distancing themselves fro…

Moving across Status Lines: Low Concern for the Ingroup and Group Identification
This research examines individuals’ concern for the ingroup when they move from a socially disadvantaged inherited background (in terms of gender, ethnicity, and nationality) to a higher social standing through individual achievement. Studies 1–2 show that the status inconsistency between the disadvantaged and the achieved groups undermines concern for the disadvantaged ingroup. Studies 3–4 demonstrate that this lower concern for the ingroup is c…
Signaling change during a crisis: Refining conditions for the glass cliff
Soi personnel et soi collectif: Les Sources D’un Malentendu
In this article, I claim that social identity theory, a founding contribution to the social-psychological study of intergroup differentiation, has suffered from a lack of consideration of notions pertaining to the hierarchical arrangement of groups in the society (social status, power, and domination). The major role of social hierarchies in accounting for social identification is then illustrated by a series of recent experimental and field stud…
Individualistic tendencies: When group status makes the difference
In three studies, the authors investigated whether individualistic tendencies are contingent upon ingroup social status. Ingroup status was created using experimental procedures, and individualistic tendencies were assessed as preference for individualistic over collectivistic advertisement messages or preference for scarce over available products. It was predicted and found that (a) members of high-status groups emphasize individualistic tendenc…

Avaliação directa e indirecta das percepções de homogeneidade num contexto de grupos naturais
No presente estudo investigámos a hipótese de que o posicionamento dos grupos na estrutura social, tanto em termos de estatuto social, com em termos do estatuto numérico, assume um papel moderador nas percepções de homogeneidade do endogrupo e do exogrupo. Neste caso, os portugueses autóctones representam o grupo maioritário e de estatuto social mais elevado e os imigrantes angolanos residentes em Portugal representam o grupo minoritário e de men…
What Do Drawings Reveal About People's Attitudes Toward Countries and Their Citizens
Participants (N = 567) from six countries (Belgium, Ivory Coast, Italy, Kosovo, Portugal, and Switzerland) drew borders of their own and of neighbor countries on boundary-free maps. It was predicted and found that the tendency to overestimate versus underestimate the sizes of the countries, compared to the original maps, reflects the perceiver's attitudes toward the target country, status asymmetries, and the quality of relations between the ingr…
Terror management in times of war: Mortality salience effects on self-esteem and governmental and army support
Previous research has identified economic and political factors that can contribute to the outbreak and the duration of armed conflicts. However, the psychological factors that may play a role in conflict escalation and duration have received less attention. Adopting a psychological perspective, the present study aims to investigate the role of death awareness in the context of an armed conflict. To this aim, basic assumptions derived from Terror…
Individuation in job offers as a function of the status of the occupation
A sample of job offers (n = 4727) from French-language daily newspapers were content analyzed for their gender stereotypicality. It was first predicted that role names, as well as descriptions of the job and the applicant, would be predominantly non-sex-typed (Hypothesis 1). Hypothesis 2 predicted that generic role names would contain more masculine than feminine stereotypes compared to gender-fair role names. It was further predicted that the se…
Social Comparison and Social Psychology: Understanding Cognition, Intergroup Relations, and Culture
Much of our knowledge about ourselves, and about the world in which we live, is based on a process of social comparison. Our tendency to appraise events, objects, people, and social groups by making comparisons has captured the interest of social psychologists for over half a century. This volume provides an up-to-date synthesis of the latest theoretical and empirical developments in social psychology through research on social comparison process…
La rencontre de la psychologie individuelle et de la psychologie sociétale
Le courant de la cognition sociale a conceptualisé plusieurs modèles de la catégorisation décrivant les manières avec lesquelles les individus organisent leurs connaissances sur les groupes sociaux. Les trois principaux modèles – les entités, les prototypes, et les exemplaires – détaillent les caractéristiques formelles du groupe. Cet article présente ces modèles et, en adoptant une perspective psychosociologique, il en souligne une limite import…
Doctoral Training in the French- Speaking Countries of Europe: Objectives and Suggestions for Improvement
In this article we discuss a number of objectives we consider important for improving graduate training. In addition, we propose several methods by which each objective may be attained. The suggestions are geared toward Francophone universities in Europe (including France, Belgium, and Switzerland) and their particular constraints, but they may prove useful for colleagues in other countries as well. First, we discuss how doctoral students can rec…

Theory and Method of Social Representations
This paper gives an overview of social representation theory, definitions of the key terms and of the social processes leading to a representation and to social identity. Six empirical studies are presented and details of their methods and findings are given to illustrate this social psychological approach. These studies are about the ontogenesis of gender, the public sphere in Brazil, madness on British television, images of androgyny in Switzer…
Group Status and Perceptions of Homogeneity
This chapter addresses the role of group status in individuals' representations of ingroup and outgroup characteristics. It first outlines a distinction between mental representations of high- and of low-status groups. A research programme is then reported which demonstrates that membership in dominant (i.e., high-status) vs. subordinate (i.e., low-status) groups moderates perceptions of groups' homogeneity. The resulting tendency for outgroup an…

Homogeneity of Gender Groups in Memory
Self‐stereotyping and self‐enhancement in gender groups
This study investigated the effects of sex membership and its salience on individuals' self‐stereotyping and the motivation to define oneself positively (self‐enhancement). Bem's (1981) gender‐schema and Markus's (1977) self‐schema theories were interpreted within the framework of inter group relations, which emphasized their respective bipolar and unipolar structures. The use men and women made of these cognitive schemas, as well as of self‐enha…
