Les croyances à propos de la violence conjugale
Nous explorons les croyances collectives et les stéréotypes de genre entourant les violences conjugales. Ces stéréotypes structurent notre perception du monde social tout en servant à justifier et maintenir des hiérarchies de pouvoir. Par exemple, l’invisibilité des violences dans les relations lesbiennes nourrit l’idée que seules les relations hétérosexuelles peuvent être violentes, renforçant ainsi la vision d’une violence exclusivement masculi…
Gender-Critical or Gender-Inclusive
Gendered Self-Views Across 62 Countries
Social role theory posits that binary gender gaps in agency and communion should be larger in less egalitarian countries, reflecting these countries’ more pronounced sex-based power divisions. Conversely, evolutionary and self-construal theorists suggest that gender gaps in agency and communion should be larger in more egalitarian countries, reflecting the greater autonomy support and flexible self-construction processes present in these countrie…
Squeezed like a lemon”
Innovative programs that emerge in response to the rapidly changing care needs of older adults provide an opportunity to study the transformations in working and employment conditions within the homecare sector. This study seeks to understand how innovations introduced in the homecare sector have affected the well-being of homecare workers providing non-medical domestic support to older adults who wish to age in place. Our study is based on a par…
How local stakeholders’ social representations shape the future of ageing in place
This research attempts to study the social representations underlying health and care social innovations (HCSI) implemented in Wallonia, Belgium to shift ageing policies and management towards the ageing in place paradigm. A panel of 34 experts was interviewed to understand their representations using a Delphi-based methodology. The data were processed using thematic content analysis. The core of social representations of health and care social i…
Les psychologies du genre
Les questions de genre et d'inégalités entre les sexes suscitent, depuis plusieurs années, un intérêt grandissant dans nombre de champs disciplinaires, dont celui de la psychologie. Dans Les psychologies du genre, plusieurs spécialistes des sciences psychologiques explorent la manière dont les questions de sexe et de genre sont abordées dans l'ensemble des sous-disciplines de la psychologie (sociale, culturelle, du travail, clinique, etc.). Ils e…
Psychometric Properties and Correlates of Precarious Manhood Beliefs in 62 Nations
Precarious manhood beliefs portray manhood, relative to womanhood, as a social status that is hard to earn, easy to lose, and proven via public action. Here, we present cross-cultural data on a brief measure of precarious manhood beliefs (the Precarious Manhood Beliefs scale [PMB]) that covaries meaningfully with other cross-culturally validated gender ideologies and with country-level indices of gender equality and human development. Using data …
The Drawback of Sexual Empowerment
Sex is power belief and women’s mental health
Sex is power belief (SIPB) positively relates to self‐objectification. This research aims at expanding this finding. We propose that SIPB involves an instrumental view of one’s own body (i.e., self‐objectification) that leads women to experience the negative consequences classically associated with self‐objectification. We further suggest that SIPB positively relates to sexual subjectivity—multidimensional sexual self‐perceptions and positive sex…
Is Social Innovation Fostering Satisfaction and Well-Being at Work? Insights from Employment in Social Enterprises Providing Long-Term Eldercare Services
Considering insights from socio-economics, work psychology, and occupational health, this study focuses on the job satisfaction and well-being of employees working in nonprofit social enterprises (SE). We question the idea suggested by the recent literature that working for a SE brings employees a high level of job satisfaction and well-being. We also investigate whether being involved in social innovation is associated with even higher job satis…

The glass ceiling metaphor refers to the hidden obstacles that, despite formal gender equality at work, contribute to maintain women in the lower positions of the professional ladder. Research has uncovered a complex set of factors that focus either on women themselves or on contextual elements, such as social norms, and organizational practices that explain this phenomenon. Contrary to women, men in female dominated jobs benefit from a so-called…
Exploring the validity of scores from the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) in Burundi
The present study aimed to validate the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) in Burundi, through a multi-strategy approach used in cross-cultural studies. Respondents were 906 health workers (men = 56%; caregivers 60%). They responded to a bilingual version of RSES. We utilised Confirmatory Factorial Analysis (CFA) with structural equation modelling and a back translation test to explore the structure of the RSES and the reliability of scores from …
The indirect association of job strain with long-term sickness absence through bullying
Bullying was observed as a mediating variable in the relation between job strain and sickness absence. The results suggest that exposure to job strain may create circumstances in which a worker risks to become a target of bullying. Our findings are generally in line with the work environment hypothesis, which emphasizes the importance of organizational work factors in the origin of bullying. This study highlights that remodeling jobs to reduce jo…
Long working hours and risk of coronary heart disease and stroke
Job Strain and Health-Related Lifestyle
Objectives. We examined the associations of job strain, an indicator of work-related stress, with overall unhealthy and healthy lifestyles. Methods. We conducted a meta-analysis of individual-level data from 11 European studies (cross-sectional data: n = 118 701; longitudinal data: n = 43 971). We analyzed job strain as a set of binary (job strain vs no job strain) and categorical (high job strain, active job, passive job, and low job strain) var…
Job strain as a risk factor for coronary heart disease
Egalité formelle et obstacles informels á l'ascension professionnelle
English In this article the authors analyze the often 'hidden' impediments which contribute to keep women in the lower positions of the social hierarchy (known as the 'glass ceiling' effect). The asymmetry between men's and women's professional profiles is questioned from an historical and psychosocial perspective. Empirical evidence attesting to the impact of the prevailing organizational norms on the propensity to upward social mobility are pre…
