Is Societal Progress Muting the Expressivity of Negative Emotions? Evidence from Two Cross-national Studies
Contemporary theories of emotion emphasize the dual role of emotions as both personal experiences and communicative signals during social interactions. However, the impact of macro-level societal structures on emotional expression remains underexplored. This study investigates the expression-experience discrepancy for self-reported emotions across nations, focusing on how societal development relates to this discrepancy, which captures expressivi…
Mind the Gap: Perceived Economic Inequality and the Well-Being Gap around the Globe
The link between economic inequality and individual well-being has been gaining increasing research attention. This study examines this relationship using data from 71 countries with diverse national incomes, addressing three key research gaps: (1) incorporating measures of both perceived and objective economic inequality, (2) extending analysis to multiple components of well-being beyond happiness, including meaning in life, harmony, and spiritu…
Emotional intelligence and spirituality in relation to psychological well-being: An investigation among non-Western emerging adults
Previous literature has displayed a predictive potential of emotional intelligence (EI) and spirituality in explaining psychological well-being (PWB). However, insufficient research among emerging adults in non-Western communities exists. We explored the contribution of EI and spirituality toward the PWB for N = 477 participants (79% females). The results displayed significant support for the hypotheses, suggesting the predictive effect of EI and…
Individual, Social and Cultural Barriers and Resources as Predictors of the Sociocultural Adaptation and Acculturative Stress of Non‐Western Third Culture Kids (TCKs)
Due to 21st‐century social advancements, the number of children growing up in culturally ‘transient’ families, also referred to as third culture kids (TCKs), is growing. Studies with bicultural individuals suggest that identity processes are essential to TCKs' life outcomes with identity strategies of integration, compartmentalization and categorization as moderators. Further, sociocultural factors supporting multicultural individuals' adaptation…
Love beyond east and west: How cultural models of selfhood predict frequency of being in love
Cultural religiosity moderates the relationship between being in love and subjective well-being
Social media: Does it always hurt? Self-compassion and narcissism as mediators of social media’s predicting effect on self-esteem and body image and gender effect: A study on a Polish community sample
Extensive social media usage causes psychological dependence and impacts people’s self-evaluations. It is vital to seek possible buffers to social media addiction’s detrimental effect on self-esteem and body image. Poland has one of the highest scores on problematic social media usage. Past studies pointed to narcissism and self-compassion as possible mediators of such effects. The present study aimed to explore Polish individuals’ (N=527) social…
Psychological empowerment and exercising: The relationships between exercising, self‐stereotyping, agency, autonomy and physical self‐efficacy in non‐Western women
Despite recent efforts towards equality, there are still gender disparities in Middle Eastern societies, where women are often discouraged from viewing themselves as autonomous, competent and self‐determining individuals due to the internalization of traditional gender norms. Research on women's empowerment in multicultural and non‐Western societies is scarce. In the absence of other interventions, exercising has been effective in increasing wome…
New Ecological Paradigm and third culture kids: Multicultural identity configurations, global mindset and values as predictors of environmental worldviews
Ecological degradation threatens human survival, increasing the need to understand factors related to pro‐environmental attitudes and worldviews. In a globalising world, new paradigms arise as central to social sciences, including the New Ecological Paradigm (NEP) and the multicultural identities of individuals raised between the cultures, third culture kids (TCKs). NEP is an ecocentric perspective that stresses the interdependence between nature…
Multicultural Identity Integration versus Compartmentalization as Predictors of Subjective Well-Being for Third Culture Kids: The Mediational Role of Self-Concept Consistency and Self-Efficacy
Globalization has resulted in an exponential increase in the number of Third Culture Kids (TCKs), defined as being raised in a culture other than that of their parents (or the passport country) and meaningfully interacting with different cultures. Inconsistencies regarding the effect of multicultural and transient experiences on well-being exist in the psychological literature. We aimed to reveal associations between multicultural identity config…
