The Social Participation of Young People in University Settings

Two studies are presented. Study 1 analyzed 3856 university students who had completed at least the first year of their undergraduate degree. Study 2 analyzed 1061 young peop…
Sustaining participation in the ecological movement during the global pandemic
This article analyses the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown on the Spanish wing of Fridays for Future, an emerging, youth-oriented environmental and social movement. Specifically, it examines the effect of reductions in physical social interaction during the pandemic on FfF’s dynamics through analysis of movement’s cognitive frameworks, internal organisation, mobilisations, identity processes, internal relationships, group efficacy, in…
Are today's young people active citizens? A study of their sensitivity to socio-political issues and their social participation
This article focuses on two facets of young people's active citizenship: their experience of being impacted by socio-political events and their participation behaviour. The idea that underlies the study is that to better understand the relationship between young people's perception of socio-political reality and their multiple ways of exercising active citizenship, we need to conceptualize more broadly what constitutes "the political". Since toda…
Tell Me who You Hang Out with and I'll Tell You Who You Are”
The purpose of this work was to study the effect of gender on the social influence processes that explain the young people’ social participation. A total of 962 Spanish undergraduate students completed a questionnaire assessing their likelihood of engaging in social participation in the future, their self-concept as socially engaged people, and the number of socially involved contacts in their social networks, distinguishing between male and fema…

How much could your heart embrace? What about your behavior? The Socio‐moral Radar as a behavioral expression of moral regard
Studying the scope and limits of individuals' moral concern is a relevant topic in many disciplines. The construct of Socio-moral Radar that this study introduces focuses on the behavioral expression of people's commitment with existing social problems and tries to reflect the degree of their moral inclusiveness as active citizens. Our main goal is to explore the extent and variations of people's willingness to engage with different social proble…
Police violence during citizens’ protests
Young People’s Social Engagement
This study focuses on the role of individuals’ social networks and motivations in predicting their intention to participate socially. In an online survey, university students ( N = 263) estimated the likelihood of their future participation in several types of civic and political activity and evaluated their possible motivations. Participants also indicated approximately how many of their social contacts were already involved in each type of part…
Am I an activist, a volunteer, both, or neither? A study of role‐identity profiles and their correlates among citizens engaged with equality and social justice issues
Activism and volunteering are two noticeable forms of social participation. Although some researchers consider them similar, others affirm that they differ in their frames (charity versus change), effects (cohesion versus tension), social representations, and also in their psychosocial correlates. Drawing on role‐identity theory, this study based on an on‐line survey explores the extent to which individuals ( N = 270) engaged in activities focuse…
La influencia diferencial de las redes sociales en la participación social de mujeres y varones

What is the right way to protest? On the process of justification of protest, and its relationship to the propensity to participate in different types of protest
This study explores how citizens in Spain perceive different tactics employed in anti-austerity protests in 2011–2013, and tests the model of the process of justification of protest. This model combines the elements of Gamson’s collective action frames theory (effectiveness, anger and grievances, operationalized as appraisal of harm) with the concept of legitimacy. It also links justification to the intention to participate. We empirically differ…
From Gist of a Wink to Structural Equivalence of Meaning
Gibson and Noret's (2010 [this issue]) critique of Paez et al.'s (2008) article on "remembering" World War II and willingness to fight applies social constructionist epistemologies based on hermeneutics to large-scale cross-cultural research. In criticizing our operationalization of historical experience, they privilege micro-analysis of discursive features that cannot be applied equally to different cultures; with regards to remembering, they id…
Representing World History in the 21st Century
Following open-ended methodology used in an earlier research by Liu et al., social representations of world history were assessed among university student samples in 12 countries: China, India, Russia, Brazil, Indonesia, East Timor, Turkey, Poland, Hungary, Ukraine, Spain, and Portugal. Findings confirmed that across cultures, transcending boundaries of political ideology, civilization age, or youthful statehood. (a) World history is represented …
"Remembering" World War II and Willingness to Fight
Students from 22 nations answered a survey on the most important events in world history. At the national level, free recalling and a positive evaluation of World War II (WWII) were associated with World Values Survey willingness to fight for the country in a war and being a victorious nation. Willingness to fight, a more benign evaluation of WWII, and recall of WWII were associated with nation-level scores on power distance and low postmateriali…
