The perceived environmental sustainability (Pensus) scale for food and drinks
The perceived sustainability of food plays a significant role in young consumers' eating behaviors. While it is highly relevant to investigate these sustainability perceptions, the available measures are limited. Previous research has mostly relied on single-item measurements that only allow a surface-level understanding of food sustainability perceptions. Therefore, this research aims to provide researchers with a scale to measure perceptions of…
Is identity leadership provided by coaches and athlete leaders associated with performance? A cross‐cultural study in football teams
The social identity approach to leadership contends that the most effective leaders represent, advance, create, and embed a shared social identity (i.e., a sense of ‘we’ and ‘us’) within the groups they lead. Building on previous research, our study examines whether the perceived identity leadership of coaches and athlete leaders is associated with a range of key performance indicators (notably team and individual performance and effort) through …
The role of identity leadership in promoting athletes' mental health
Identity leadership is the process through which leaders create, advance, represent, and embed a sense of ‘we’ and ‘us’ (i.e., social identities) within the teams they lead. This paper extends the existing sports psychology literature by investigating the relationship between identity leadership and athletes' mental health, as mediated by team identification and social support. Additionally, the study explores the generalisability of these relati…
How consumers value sustainable packaging
Purpose This study investigates the combined impact of two packaging cues (i.e. packaging material, recycled content claim) and a price premium on young consumers’ product perceptions and choices. Design/methodology/approach Experimental data were collected online via a questionnaire and a hypothetical choice task completed by 221 young consumers (i.e. 19–25 years). We manipulated two packaging cues for a liquid food product: the packaging materi…
The advantages and disadvantages of different implementations of shared leadership in organizations
The leadership literature has mainly considered shared leadership as a unified concept, overlooking the fact that it comes in many forms. However, the shift to shared leadership may not always yield favorable outcomes (Mumford et al., 2012). Knowing the benefits and challenges of different shared leadership implementations is crucial as it can either strengthen or undermine the overall effectiveness of shared leadership. To gain insights into the…
Persuasive packaging? The impact of packaging color and claims on young consumers’ perceptions of product healthiness, sustainability and tastiness
The effects of a real-life lifestyle program on physical activity and objective and subjective sleep in adults aged 55+ years
Although this program was effective in increasing physical activity, it did not improve sleep. Lifestyle programs should be promoted to increase physical activity, but more is needed to improve sleep as well. This trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (Trial registration NCT03576209)
Are Reallocations between Sedentary Behaviour and Physical Activity Associated with Better Sleep in Adults Aged 55+ Years? An Isotemporal Substitution Analysis
Physical activity has been proposed as an effective alternative treatment option for the increasing occurrence of sleep problems in older adults. Although higher physical activity levels are associated with better sleep, the association between specific physical activity intensities and sedentary behaviour (SB) with sleep remains unclear. This study examines the associations of statistically modelled time reallocations between sedentary time and …
The effect of descriptive age norms on the motivation to exercise among older adults
Based on the principles of the Social Identity Approach (SIA), the present experiment aimed to examine the impact of communicating descriptive age norms on older adults’ autonomous motivation to exercise. Under the cover of a marketing study, older adults (n = 120; age = 65–70 years) participated in a newly created exercise activity, ‘Pattern Stepping’. This activity was framed as an activity that was descriptively normative either for older adul…
Evaluation of stAPP
Excessive uninterrupted sitting, also known as sedentary behavior, has been detrimentally associated with several health outcomes. However, the general population is often unaware of these health risks. Mobile phone technology offers great potential to increase awareness and to initiate behavior change. This study examined the short-term effects of stAPP, a smartphone-based intervention, on prolonged sitting behavior. Fifty-eight participants wer…
Equity-Specific Effects of Interventions to Promote Physical Activity among Middle-Aged and Older Adults
Reducing social inequalities in physical activity (PA) has become a priority for public health. However, evidence concerning the impact of interventions on inequalities in PA is scarce. This study aims to develop and test the application of a strategy for re-analyzing equity-specific effects of existing PA intervention studies in middle-aged and older adults, as part of an international interdisciplinary collaboration. This article aims to descri…
Does Social Capital Benefit Older Adults’ Health and Well-Being? The Mediating Role of Physical Activity
Objectives: To assess whether social capital benefits older adults' self-rated health and well-being and whether physical activity mediates this relation. Methods: A survey study was conducted among members of a sociocultural organization (age ≥55 years), both cross-sectionally (baseline Time 1; N = 959) and longitudinally (3-year follow-up Time 2; N = 409). Results: Specific indicators of social capital were positively, though modestly, related …

Who takes the lead? Social network analysis as a pioneering tool to investigate shared leadership within sports teams
The Impact of Different Degrees of Feedback on Physical Activity Levels
Assessing levels of physical activity (PA) and providing feedback about these levels might have an effect on participant's PA behavior. This study discusses the effect of different levels of feedback--from minimal to use of a feedback display and coach--on PA over a 4-week intervention period. PA was measured at baseline, during and immediately after the intervention. Participants (n=227) were randomly assigned to a Minimal Intervention Group (MI…

Long-term effectiveness and mediators of a need-supportive physical activity coaching among Flemish sedentary employees
This study examined the long-term and mediation effects of a need-supportive coaching programme on physical activity. Sedentary employees (n = 92) of the university of Leuven received 4 months of physical activity coaching, based on the self-determination theory, by coaches with a bachelor's degree in kinesiology who are specializing in health-related physical activity (n = 30). The programme consisted of a limited number of individual contact mo…
A simple health sign increases stair use in a shopping mall and two train stations in Flanders, Belgium
The aim of this study was to test the impact of a simple health-promotion sign on stair use in three community settings in Flanders, Belgium. A health sign was placed at the junction between the stairs and an escalator in a shopping mall and two train stations. Observations took place on four days: baseline, first intervention, post-intervention and second intervention. In the second station, a second post-intervention phase was added. In total, …
When the best become the rest
This experiment tested the combined impact of premerger status (low, high) and relative representation (low, high) on identification with a merged group and on bias expressed towards members of the merger partner. In phase 1, 111 university students were assigned to a premerger team of “inductive” thinkers. Premerger status was manipulated by informing participants that their team had performed worse or better than a deductionist team on a decisi…
Post‐merger identification as a function of pre‐merger identification, relative representation, and pre‐merger status
This experiment examined the impact of pre‐merger identification (low, high), pre‐merger group status (low, high) and relative representation (low, high) upon identification with a new merger group. In the first phase of the study, 156 university students were assigned to a pre‐merger team of ‘inductive’ thinkers. Pre‐merger identification was manipulated by giving the participants feedback about the extent to which they used the inductionist sty…
Group Status as a Determinant of Organizational Identification After a Takeover
This study investigates the relation between the perceived status of an organization after a takeover (i.e. post-merger status) on employees’ identification with this new organization (i.e. their post-merger identification). Respondents were 234 employees of a corrugated board producing company, which had taken over a smaller company eight months before. As hypothesized, post-merger status was positively related to organizational identification a…
Culture-Level Dimensions of Social Axioms and Their Correlates across 41 Cultures
Leung and colleagues have revealed a five-dimensional structure of social axioms across individuals from five cultural groups. The present research was designed to reveal the culture level factor structure of social axioms and its correlates across 41 nations. An ecological factor analysis on the 60 items of the Social Axioms Survey extracted two factors: Dynamic Externality correlates with value measures tapping collectivism, hierarchy, and cons…
When Integration Does Not Necessarily Imply Integration
This study compared three conceptualizations of acculturation orientations (i.e., contact, adoption, and identification) in two samples of ethnic minority members ( N= 290) in Belgium. In line with the hypotheses, these conceptualizations yielded substantially different distributions of participants across four acculturation orientations (i.e., integration, assimilation, separation, and marginalization): Integration was the most popular orientati…
The Relative Impact of Socio-Structural Characteristics on Behavioral Reactions Against Membership in a Low-Status Group
This experiment examined how structural characteristics of an intergroup relationship influence the behavioral reactions by members of a low-status group. Participants were 542 pupils (aged 11-12 years) who were led to believe that their school class had a low intergroup status. A 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 factorial design was created by manipulating the legitimacy of the low group status, the stability of that status, the permeability of the group boundarie…
