Development of the forgiveness schema among young children and adolescents
Few studies on the development of forgiveness involved young children and adolescents, and very few involved samples from non-western countries. This study focused on the development of willingness to forgive a particular transgression in participants aged 4 to 12 years and from two different cultures: a South African culture (Mozambique) and a Western European culture (France). Overall, 153 pupils from Mozambique and 107 pupils from France were …

A total of 1,076 participants: 419 adolescents (56% females; M age = 13.78 years) and 657 emerging …

Results: We found a 4-factor structure of motives for taking antibiotics: Appropriate P…
Patients’ Positions on the Degree of Trust to be Placed in Physicians
Patient-physician relationship is ideally based on mutual trust. Trust usually takes times to build but can quite instantaneously be destroyed as a result of a single action or a single misperception. This study examined the way patients conceptualize the relationship between trust in a physician and perceived competency, honesty and openness, and personal involvement in care. One hundred sixty-seven patients aged 18-85 years were presented with …
The views of homeless people in Portugal on barriers to reintegration into the workforce

French People’s positions on supervised injection facilities for drug users
BACKGROUND: Supervised injection facilities have been set-up in many countries to curb the health risks associated with unsafe injection practices. These facilities have, however, been met with vocal opposition, notably in France.

METHOD: A sample of 318 adults--among them …
Mapping the Reconciliation Sentiment

Apologies, Repentance, and Forgiveness
Forgivingness (dispositional forgiveness) was assessed in three different samples: Lebanese Muslims (N = 119), Lebanese Christians (N = 121), and French Christians (N = 151). Two different forgivingness structures were evidenced, one that corresponded to the three-factor Western European model (Lasting Resentment, Sensitivity to Circumstances, and Unconditional Forgiveness), which fit the data from the Christian samples, and one that gave a speci…
Cross-Cultural Variations in Attitudes Toward Love
Using the Love Attitude Scale, the first objective of this study was to examine the extent to which Lee’s six-factor colors of love model was able to account for data gathered across a large number of countries in Africa, Asia, South America, and Europe. Confirmatory factor analyses showed that the structure postulated by Lee could be applied across multiple cultures. The second objective was to study possible cross-cultural variations in attitud…

Skin Bleaching Among Togolese
The motives underlying the practice of regular skin bleaching among Togolese people were examined, using Apter's metamotivational theory as the framework. Factor analysis using scree test and a varimax rotation showed eight independent types of basic motives that are characteristic of this theory. Four motives appeared as clearly dominant.

The Practice of Puxa-Puxa among Mozambican Women
Puxa-puxa is the elongation of the labia minora of the genital organs.

The present study examined the extent to which the three-aspect construct of forgivingness—Lasting Resentment, Sensitivity to Circumstances of the offense, and Unconditional Forgiveness—applies to the way believers in God conceptualize God's forgiveness and remember the atmosphere of forgiveness (or unforgiveness) that prevailed in their family. It also examined the relationships between forgivingness, conceptualizations of God's forgiveness, and…
Conceptualizations of Forgiveness and Forgivingness Among Hindus
The conceptualizations about forgiveness of Indians from the Hindu community were explored using the Conceptualizations of Forgiveness Questionnaire. As expected, the four-factor structure of conceptualizations found among Western Europeans from Christian backgrounds (Encourages Repentance, Immoral Behavior, Broad Process, and Change of Heart) fit the data collected among the Hindus. Hindus' propensity to forgive was also explored using the Forgi…
The granting of forgiveness in an intergroup context
The model for representing intergroup forgiveness suggested by Neto, Pinto & Mullet (2007a) has been extended through the examination of data from a large sample (n = 1036) of Asian (Cambodians and East Timorese) and African (Angolans, Guineans and Mozambicans) adults who have been personally affected by long-term wars and conflicts in their area. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses showed that a nine-factor model could adequately fit th…

The scenarios des…
Acceptability for French People of Phisician-Assited Suicide
Our aim was to understand better how people judge the acceptability of physician-assisted suicide (PAS). We found that, for people in France of all ages and for elderly people with life-threatening illnesses, acceptability is an additive combination of the number of requests for PAS, the patient's age, the amount of physical suffering, and the degree of curability of the illness, not only when judging for hypothetical patients, but also for their…
