Immigration salience and double standards
This research examined whether highlighting immigration as a major societal issue increases anti-immigrant prejudice and far-right support, particularly among social conservatives. We also explored whether this effect would be weaker when salience involves immigrant groups that are normatively protected, such as Ukrainian refugees, compared to other groups. Across two studies conducted in Switzerland ( N = 439) and France ( N = 382), participants…
Valence of immigration news, perceived threat, and support for restrictive immigration policy
Immigration is often portrayed negatively in the news, yet previous research remains inconclusive about how the valence of immigration news in national coverage relates to individual immigration policy preferences. Furthermore, the psychological mechanisms underlying this relationship are not well understood. This study examined whether, in national contexts where immigration news has a more negative valence, there is greater support for restrict…
Reducing the gender gap on adolescents’ interest in study fields
Despite some progress towards gender equality in Western societies, traditional gender norms still shape career choices, perpetuating a gender gap where girls are more likely to pursue traditionally feminine fields like healthcare, elementary education, and domestic roles (HEED), while boys are drawn to masculine domains such as science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). This research investigates whether, and under which condition…
Overcoming Social Interactions Stress During Covid-19 Lockdown
The effect of COVID-19 lockdowns on the shift from in-person (offline) social interactions to online interactions and its consequences on social support and stress attracted scholarly attention. However, much less is known about how individuals’ prior mobility experiences have influenced coping with this shift. In the present research, we hypothesized that people with mobility experiences should already be more familiar with, and could profit mor…
Legitimacy of Authority and Protest Actions in Response to Collective Disadvantages
A wealth of evidence has demonstrated that individuals’ participation in collective actions largely derives from perceived group disadvantages. In the present research, we hypothesized that engagement in protest activities can be attenuated if the disadvantages originate from legitimate figures of authority. Across three experiments based on vignettes describing a hypothetical work setting (total N = 670), we found consistent support for this pre…
The impact of empathy and perspective-taking instructions on proponents and opponents of immigration
In many societies, immigration is a conflictual topic, leading to heated exchanges between proponents and opponents of immigration. Such debates on immigration might benefit from the engagement of the discussants in empathy and perspective taking. Although empathy and perspective-taking exercises can be beneficial in some contexts, previous research shows marked differences in people with a rightist versus a leftist political orientation when it …
