Motives Towards Consumer‐to‐Consumer Online Marketplaces
Consumer‐to‐consumer online marketplaces (C2CM) represent a growing phenomenon whose underlying psychosocial dimensions have been scarcely studied so far. The present study aims at identifying the patterns of psychosocial drivers underlying the main motives towards their use—that is, sale‐related, purchase‐related and well‐being‐ and QoL‐related—using a person‐centred approach based on individuals' relationships with their home and personal posse…
Volunteering in Transition
Episodic and digital forms of engagement have been marking volunteering as in transition. Individuals tend to engage in volunteering activities in multiple ways other than traditional volunteering, that is, an enduring activity, long‐term and organization‐centred volunteering. While episodic volunteering refers to occasional forms of engagement, digital volunteering represents the new avenue of engagement via information technologies and the inte…
Unravelling Indicators and Predictors of Social Inclusion Processes
In literature, social inclusion has been addressed both as an outcome and as a process. While its multidimensionality has been widely reckoned, a unique definition or classification of the dimensions representing its indicators and of those fostering such processes is still lacking. Therefore, this scoping review addresses this gap by deepening the indicators and predictors of social inclusion processes across 44 scientific sources. Sources were …
Ubiquitous local community experiences
People-Nearby Applications (PNAs) can impact users’ local social capital and sense of community (SoC), by allowing users to meet new people locally and enhance their SoC through increased local social capital and active involvement in the community of belonging. An online questionnaire was administered to 595 Italian and Dutch PNAs users to detect their PNAs community-related use, frequency of face-to-face encounters with other users, local socia…
A Scoping Review of the Psychological Perspectives on Online Volunteering
Online volunteering is distinguishable from in‐presence volunteering due to its procedural nature as being partially or totally online. Over the past decades, scholars within psychology have been interested in understanding the online volunteering process. However, while bringing attention to the phenomenon, psychology still has to manifest concentrated engagement with online volunteerism. This review seeks to situate the study of online voluntee…
The communicative processes in the renewable energy communities (REC)
Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) represent an important resource for promoting the energy transition through participative forms of governance. Focusing on communicative processes is crucial for the success of RECs, since effective communication can promote citizens’ engagement and participation in these projects. This systematic review aims to investigate communication within the RECs, exploring the main communicative strategies and channels,…
Using the Living Lab Methodology to Build Inclusive Communities
Living Labs (LLs) have spread as a methodology for the development of innovative perspectives. It has mainly been used in the Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) field, but less in the social sciences. The present study deepens the use of this methodology in the psychosocial field within the EU‐project YouCount, with the aim of developing innovative processes enhancing youth social inclusion. Participants of the LL were 30 Italian c…
Technostress and work-family interface in the face of Covid-19-related remote work
During the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic, in Italy, a nationwide lockdown required a massive shift to remote work – that is, from workers' houses. The risk of conflict between work and family domains increased due to the collapse of both into private houses and may have been further burdened due to no training being issued to help workers adjust to these changes in their work activities, producing higher rates of technostress. This study …
Ubiquitous processes strengthening neighbourhood communities
Modern local communities are undergoing deep changes due to modern social and cultural processes and to the widespread use of ubiquitous, neighbourhood‐related social media. Indeed, the latter shape citizens' experiences in terms of both local relationships and opportunities for shared aims and behaviours. Therefore, this study endeavours to unravel the impact of neighbourhood‐related social media on users' sense of community (SoC), sense of resp…
Community Psychology Competencies and Onlife Participatory Team Building
Modern social ecosystems have become increasingly complex due to the sanitary, political, social, cultural and technological transformations they are dealing with. This also requires professionals working within these contexts—such as community psychologists—to adapt by acquiring new and updated skills in order to properly address the challenges they pose. Therefore, this paper unpacks the experience of planning, organising and managing the 9th I…
People-Nearby Applications Use and Local Community Experiences
This study investigates individual- and community-level factors that affect how people use People-Nearby Applications (PNAs) to meet people in their local communities. We pose that individuals’ local social needs stimulate PNAs use, but that this relationship is contingent upon their neighborhood characteristics. A multiple informant methodology was used. 314 Italian and Dutch PNAs users answered an online questionnaire about their local social n…
Emergency online school learning during Covid-19 lockdown
The COVID-19 pandemic caused abrupt and profound changes to teaching and learning. The present study seeks to understand adolescents’ experiences of the emergency adoption of online school learning (OSL) during the first national lockdown in Italy. Sixty-four students in their final two years of high school were interviewed and content analysis was performed. The findings describe students’ views of the changes related to OSL according to structu…
Immigrant collective civic action
Based on the social identity model of collective action (SIMCA), this study examined factors associated with immigrant collective civic action, while also testing the role of group resilience. A convenience sample of 226 first‐generation immigrants (58.6% female) of different nationalities completed a self‐report questionnaire. Partial least squares path modelling was used to test a model assessing the relationship between national and ethnic ide…
The Relational Domains of Adolescence
The COVID-19 pandemic experience had a major impact on adolescents’ relational lives. The abrupt change in habits led adolescents to revise their relationships with respect to family, friends, and school; they suffered greatly because of this but, at the same time, were able to discover new resources and possibilities. The present paper aims to give adolescents a voice by exploring their experiences of the change that the pandemic period brought …
Protective and risk social dimensions of emergency remote teaching during Covid‐19 pandemic
The changes in teaching due to COVID‐19‐related restraints generated distress among teachers, putting their job‐related efficacy and satisfaction at risk. This study deepens the community‐related protective and risk factors in teachers' experience. An online questionnaire detecting social distancing burnout, job‐related distress experience, efficacy and satisfaction, and Sense of Community (SoC) was administered to 307 Italian teachers. A multipl…
Teachers’ stress experiences during Covid-19-related emergency remote teaching
The study provides a portrait of teachers’ stress experience in the face of the needed introduction of information systems (IS) during COVID-19-related emergency remote teaching. Researchers contacted the headmasters at several Italian schools, who choose teacher’s representatives. The latters shared the online questionnaire among colleagues; the teachers voluntarily decided to participate. The cross-sectional study involved 237 Italian teachers …
Environmental mastery and purpose of life during Covid ‐19‐related lockdown
COVID-19 outbreak and the measures needed to contain its first wave of contagion produced broad changes in citizens' daily lives, routines, and social opportunities, putting their environmental mastery and purpose of life at risk. However, these measures produced different impacts across citizens and communities. Building on this, the present study addresses citizens' understanding of the rationale for COVID-19-related protective measures and the…
The selective effect of lockdown experience on citizens' perspectives
In the face of the first wave of COVID-19 contagion, citizens all over the world experienced concerns for their safety and health, as well as prolonged lockdowns - which brought about limitations but also unforeseen opportunities for personal growth. Broad variability in these psychological responses to such unprecedented experiences emerged. This study addresses this variability by investigating the role of personal and community resilience. Per…
Covid‐19 in our lives
The aim of this study is to examine the association between citizens' perceptions of the effectiveness of the institutional response, their connection and responsibility to their community (Sense of Community—SoC; Sense of Community Responsibility—SoC‐R), and their personal and social concerns about the current emergency and their perceptions of a postpandemic future during the first COVID‐19 pandemic lockdown. Another variable considered was the…
Sensemaking Processes during the First Months of Covid-19 Pandemic
The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about disruptive changes in individuals' lives, breaking the established systems of meaning worldwide. Indeed, in the first months of the pandemic, with individuals being forced to stay at home for a prolonged time to contain the spread of the virus, the need to build new meanings to understand and face this crisis emerged. Building on this, the present study contributes to the understanding of how sensemaking pr…
Basic human values and sense of community as resource and responsibility
The study aimed at exploring the relationship between basic human values and sense of community (SOC). Specifically, it aimed at identifying which types of values exert an impact, whether these values are consistent with SOC as a resource and responsibility (SOC‐R), and whether the values‐SOC/SOC‐R relations change according to some community characteristics (i.e., stability and cohesion). The 1,334 participants in the survey were based in differ…
Prosocial behaviours under collective quarantine conditions. A latent class analysis study during the 2020 Covid ‐19 lockdown in Italy

Survey data were collected from a sample of Italian adults during the March May 2020 COVID-19 lockdown in Italy. Participants reported on offline and online prosocial behaviours, sense of community responsibility (SoC-R) and perceptions of community resilience. Latent class analysis (LCA) was used for data analysis. A total of 4,045 participants comp…
Sense of responsible togetherness, sense of community, and civic engagement behaviours
Local communities should represent entities where individuals get answers to their affiliation needs and for which they feel responsible, but in modern ones, increasingly complex ways of living together are fostering citizens' civic and social disengagement. The present study addresses the relationships between the cognitive, affective, and behavioural components of an active and engaged citizenship. Five hundred and fifty‐five Italian citizens a…
Psychometric properties of the Italian version of the sense of community responsibility scale
The central aim of the present research was to examine the psychometric properties of adapted versions of the sense of community (SOC) responsibility scale in three Italian samples. We examined the psychometric properties of three modified versions of the sense of community responsibility (SOC‐R) scale. Consistent with the original scale, exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses demonstrated that the scale was unidimensional and exhibited exc…

People‐nearby applications and local communities
The present study aims to deepen the relationship between people's loneliness and relational motivations toward people‐nearby applications (PNAs) use, within the uses and gratification framework. Indeed, due to the spread of indifference and mistrust toward other citizens, local communities and the relationships within them can leave some individuals’ social needs unsatisfied.
