From the concept of threat to the common sense of societal threat: A qualitative inquiry of societal threats’ features / Del concepto de amenaza al significado lego de la amenaza social: un estudio cu…
The word ‘threat’ currently proliferates in the public sphere, which contributes to the large-scale information spread of societal threats of our time. However, the difference of common sense that laypeople attribute to the concepts of ‘threat’, ‘risk’ and ‘danger’ remains unclear. Therefore, this research aims to fill the social psychological knowledge gap and investigate laypeople’s common sense of ‘societal threat’. Participants ( N = 186) wer…
Social representations of psychology: When paradoxes become a strength
This article investigates the understanding by different groups of what psychology is and what psychologists do. We first recall some of the tensions that fuelled the discipline and underpinned its institutionalization in France. Then, drawing on social representations (SR) theory and on the wind-rose model, we explore how SR of psychology and of the psychologist are developed in two different groups and when these groups come together. The first…
Virtual reality as a tool for deradicalizing the terrorist mind: Conceptual and methodological insights from intergroup conflict resolution and perspective-taking research
The radicalization of individuals and related commitment of acts of extreme violence, such as terrorism, have become one of the main societal concerns over the past years. Radicalization refers to a complex psychosocial process through which individuals adopt increasingly extreme convictions. The field of individuals’ deradicalization has attracted the interest of scholars and policymakers in recent years, and establishment of actual deradicaliza…
Meaning-making and rumour-mongering in the shadow of terrorism: The case of the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris
The January 7, 2015 Charlie Hebdo terrorist attack in Paris shattered French civilians’ sense of security and also their sense of the surrounding world. This quasi-longitudinal study investigates the temporal dynamics of meaning-making and rumour-mongering processes of French civilians (N = 161) in a real-world, post-terrorist context. The present study was conducted via questionnaire at three points in time (i.e. one week, one month and two mont…
Emotional reactions to the French colonization in Algeria: The normative nature of collective guilt
Fifty years after the end of the Algerian war of independence, French colonization in Algeria (1830-1962) is still a very controversial topic when sporadically brought to the forefront of the public sphere. One way to better understand current intergroup relationships between French of French origin and French with Algerian origins is to investigate how the past influences the present. This study explores French students' emotional reactions to t…
Humane Orientation as a New Cultural Dimension of the GLOBE Project: A Validation Study of the GLOBE Scale and Out-Group Humane Orientation in 25 Countries
We validate, extend, and empirically and theoretically criticize the cultural dimension of humane orientation of the project GLOBE (Global Leadership and Organizational Behavior Effectiveness Research Program). Theoretically, humane orientation is not just a one-dimensionally positive concept about being caring, altruistic, and kind to others as discussed by Kabasakal and Bodur (2004), but there is also a certain ambivalence to this concept. We s…
Group heterogeneity and social validation of everyday knowledge: The mediating role of perceived group participation
Studies presented in this article show that participants attribute greater validity to opinions supported by heterogeneous groups than by homogeneous ones, that this effect occurs whether participants anticipate group belonging or not and that the relationship between heterogeneity and the attribution of validity to opinions is mediated by the perception of participation within heterogeneous groups. More specifically, an experimental scenario was…
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…
Social representations of the individual: A post-Communist perspective
Social representations of the individual are examined in three post-Communist Central European nations, i.e. the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary, and in three West European nations, i.e. Scotland, England and France. All six nations share a common European history since the Renaissance and Humanism, based on such values as freedom, agency, individual rights and individual responsibility. Many of these values were rejected by the Communist re…
Les biais dans la résolution de problèmes: Quelques Conclusions Pratiques Pour l'Organisation Et La Gestion Du Travail en Groupes
La situation qui nous intéresse est relativement simple. Imaginez les gens qui travaillent ensemble et qui tentent de résoudre un problème. Ce dernier ne demande aucune capacité, ni aucune connaissance particulière. Il est accessible, mais difficile et ambigu. Le groupe travaille sous la contrainte d'arriver à une solution consensuelle, mais ne dispose d'aucune information sur le caractère correct ou non des solutions proposées. Par contre, il pe…
