  • Pro-environmental behavior, norms, affective attitude, and intention in 9-year-old children: An exploratory network analysis

    Open Access•Giuseppe Corbelli, Silvia Caldaroni et al.•ARTICLE•Current Psychology•2026

    Understanding the factors associated with children’s pro-environmental intentions is important for developing theory and informing future research on sustainable behavior early in life. At the same time, research with young children often involves small and hard-to-reach samples, making confirmatory modeling difficult. In this exploratory pilot study, we applied psychometric network analysis to examine the pattern of conditional associations amon…

The overall aim of this work is to investigate the features of the hashtag movement #itcouldbeme, which was born after a terrible news event concerning a newborn’s death, specifically concerning (a) the e-activation levels; (b) the emotional arousal; (c) the potential presence of deconstruction…

  • Profiling adolescents' vulnerability to racial misinformation: An hybrid intervention aimed at promoting mediated intergroup contact

    Open Access•Francesca D’errico, Giuseppe Corbelli et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Community & Applied…•2024•References: 12

Rolling Minds web app has been designed to implement a hybrid schools intervention thanks to which classmates engage with conversational agents, guiding them in deconstructing…

  • Let's Make the Difference!” Promoting Hate Counter‐Speech in Adolescence Through Empathy and Digital Intergroup Contact

    Open Access•Carmela Sportelli, Paolo Giovanni Cicirelli et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Community & Applied…•2024•References: 9

    Intergroup contact interventions have been mostly used to foster empathy, promote positive relations, and reduce prejudice and discrimination. However, less is known about the potential of intergroup contact, especially digital, in interventions designed to hinder hate speech and promote counter‐speech. Counter‐speech can be defined as a direct response to hate speech, aimed at refuting or undermining it. This study argues that the quality of int…
