Pacifist or Peace Psychology? Overcoming Naïve Pacifism to Foster a True Science of Peace‐Making
Recent geopolitical events have exposed critical gaps in the ability of peace and conflict psychology (PCP) to engage with conflicts beyond intractable or postwar contexts. This paper introduces the concept of “naïve pacifism” to describe underlying assumptions in PCP that may limit its ability to address complex modern conflicts effectively. Three pillars of naïve pacifism are identified: (1) the homeostatic view of peace as the natural state an…
Creativity in Emergency Settings
Emergency situations are generally described as combining both threat and time pressure. Creative solutions to deal with such situations are important. The present studies (Ntotal = 1190) investigated how people are able to produce creative solutions in an emergency. Our first study was correlational, and assessed individual creativity and reactions to emergency situations using self-report questionnaires. It was complemented by three experimenta…
Experimental manipulation of uncanny feeling does not increase adherence to conspiracy theories
Research over the past decade has shown that endorsement of conspiracy theories (CTs) is shaped by motivated cognition processes. Accordingly, CTs are theorized to stem from compensatory processes, as individuals attempt to cope with existential threats (i.e., uncertainty, loss of control). Based on the meaning maintenance model, we investigated whether this compensatory effect could follow from epistemic threats in domains unrelated to CTs in th…
Aiming at Creativity and Ending up with a Range from Low‐Hanging Fruits to Foolishness
The term “creative” is commonly used in everyday language and in academic discourse to discuss the nature of artistic and innovative productions. This usage inherently implies the existence of a variable of creativity that allows different creative works to be compared. The standard definition of creativity asserts that a production must possess both value and novelty in order to be considered truly creative. However, previous psychometric studie…
One “C” to Rule Them All
The 7C's of creativity (Lubart, 2017) summarize scientific contributions in seven categories as a function of their main object of interest in relation to creativity: Creators, Creating, Collaboration, Context, Creations, Consumption, and Curricula. In its attempt to grasp these different dimensions of the phenomenon of creativity, the psychology of creativity seems to have lost sight of its main object of interest: creative human behavior . This…
The Construct Validity of Creativity
In scientific research on creativity, there has been considerable debate concerning the criteria by which a production can be judged more or less creative, that is, about the definition of creativity. The most frequent definition – the standard definition – incorporates the criteria of novelty and value. However, other definitions, based on a single criterion or on more than two criteria, have also been proposed. Much of the discussion of this is…
National identification, a social cure for Covid-19? Evidence from 67 countries
BACKGROUND: Social distancing and mass quarantines were implemented worldwide in response to the current COVID-19 pandemic. Prior research has shown that such measures bear negative consequences for population mental health and well-being. Conversely, a growing body of evidence suggests that feeling positively identified with a group is associated with physical and mental health benefits. AIMS: This study tested whether national identification co…
The Role of Cultural Values in National-Level Innovation
Innovation constitutes a key factor for the economy and the competitiveness of societies. Using the Hofstede model of national culture, previous studies investigated the influence of different cultural dimensions on national-level innovation. These studies provided for mixed evidence regarding the influence and weight of each cultural dimension in innovation. By considering possible explanations for these inconsistent results, the present study (…
From Explicit to Implicit Theories of Creativity and Back
The different definitions of creativity that have been proposed by researchers have developed out of what are called explicit theories of creativity, on the basis of logical and semantic arguments, independently of empirical data. The present paper focuses on two such definitions, the standard definition (M.A. Runco & G.J. Jaeger, 2012), which defines a creative product as one that is novel and valuable, and R.W. Weisberg’s (2015, 2018) intention…
The Normative Features of Creativity
Many studies mention the social valorization of creative individuals. However, previous works show contrasting results concerning both this valorization and the links between creativity and the two dimensions of social judgment (individuals’ warmth and competence). Consequently, we implemented two paradigms classically used when examining the normative features of individuals' traits such as creativity. Study 1 ( N = 206), using a self‐presentati…
The Creativity of Conspiracy Theories
Conspiracy theories are narratives, they tell mostly fictional stories. In that sense, conspiracy theories are creative productions similar to other productions involving narratives, such as poems, films, or stories. However, contrary to these productions regularly studied in the field of creativity, conspiracy theories remain unexplored in this field. The present contribution proposes to consider conspiracy narratives as creative products. We di…
“We Shall Overcome”
Collective action is a key driver of social and political change within societies. So far, the main factor mobilizing individuals into collective action remains the extent to which they feel identified with a protesting group (i.e., social identification). Although the link between social identification and collective action is well-established, current evidence relies mostly on self-report data. To tackle this issue, we combined real-life protes…
What does it Mean to Share ? From Actual to Perceived Sharedness in the Structural Approach to Social Representations
Le partage constitue une notion clé dans le champ des représentations sociales. En particulier, l’approche structurale des représentations sociales distingue les cognitions centrales et périphériques, les premières étant considérées comme plus partagées que les secondes. Cependant, le partage a été conçu en l’absence d’une véritable réflexion sur sa définition et se réfère uniquement au fait de prendre part à un consensus. Or, le partage perçu co…
The social value of social representations
The central core theory establishes that the organization of a social representation depends on a distinction between central and peripheral cognitions. Only the first ones are considered as particularly linked to the group identity. Previous works showed that, contrary to peripheral cognitions, central cognitions are subject to social valorization within the group. The present contribution aimed to conceptually replicate this finding, and to exp…
Together we stand? Belonging motive moderates the effect of national ingroup salience on attitudes towards ethnic minorities
To resist or not to resist? Investigating the normative features of resistance to persuasion
Resistance to Persuasion (RP) is an important construct allowing to understand attitude change (or its absence) after persuasive attempts. Theorized as an individual attribute, no research has yet investigated the potential presence of prescriptive norms of judgment surrounding the display of RP by individuals. In line with the prevalence of individualistic values within occidental societies—where individuals are expected to be self-determined, a…
Positive associations between anomia and intentions to engage in political violence
Politically motivated violence stems from various psychological motives such as the need to restore \nsignificance, meaning or control in one’s life. Here, we demonstrate for the first time that anomia, \na generalized feeling of being meaningless, powerless, isolated and alienated is linked with intentions \nto engage in political violence across cultures and political ideologies. Anomia may therefore \nconstitute a single unifying psychological…
