National Identity in a United Germany: Nationalism or Patriotism? An Empirical Test With Representative DataPolitical Psychology - Tập 24 Số 2 - Trang 289-312 - 2003
Thomas Blank, Peter Schmidt
Nationalism and patriotism can be thought of as consequences of national
identity that represent positive evaluations of one's own group but imply
different social goals. This paper investigates the ways in which these concepts
are related to attitudes toward minorities. The data analyzed were drawn from a
representative sample of residents of the former East and West Germany who
responded to item... hiện toàn bộ
Climate‐Science Communication and the Measurement ProblemPolitical Psychology - Tập 36 Số S1 - Trang 1-43 - 2015
Dan M. Kahan
This article examines the science‐of‐science‐communication measurement problem.
In its simplest form, the problem reflects the use of externally invalid
measures of the dynamics that generate cultural conflict over risk and other
policy‐relevant facts. But at a more fundamental level, the
science‐of‐science‐communication measurement problem inheres in the phenomena
being measured themselves. The “... hiện toàn bộ
On the Left and Right Ideological Divide: Historical Accounts and Contemporary PerspectivesPolitical Psychology - Tập 39 Số S1 - Trang 49-83 - 2018
Gian Vittorio Caprara, Michele Vecchione
Left and right are viewed as social constructs that serve to orient and to bind
people to political choices over the last two centuries mostly within
established Western liberal democracies. Their contents and functions, however,
have not been invariant across polities but were largely shaped in accordance
with the distinctive characteristics of societies and of political systems in
which they ope... hiện toàn bộ
Explaining Normative Versus Nonnormative Action: The Role of Implicit TheoriesPolitical Psychology - Tập 37 Số 6 - Trang 835-852 - 2016
Eric Shuman, Smadar Cohen‐Chen, Sivan Hirsch‐Hoefler, Eran Halperin
The current research investigates what motivates people to engage in normative
versus nonnormative action. Prior research has shown that different emotions
lead to different types of action. We argue that these differing emotions are
determined by a more basic characteristic, namely, implicit theories about
whether groups and the world in general can change. We hypothesized that
incremental theori... hiện toàn bộ
Upper‐Body Strength and Political Egalitarianism: Twelve Conceptual ReplicationsPolitical Psychology - Tập 40 Số 2 - Trang 375-394 - 2019
Michael Bang Petersen, Lasse Laustsen
Animal models of conflict behavior predict that an organism's behavior in a
conflict situation is influenced by physical characteristics related to
abilities to impose costs on adversaries. Stronger and larger organisms should
be more motivated to seek larger shares of resources and higher places in
hierarchies. Previous studies of human males have suggested that measures of
upper‐body strength ar... hiện toàn bộ
Hate Speech Epidemic. The Dynamic Effects of Derogatory Language on Intergroup Relations and Political RadicalizationPolitical Psychology - Tập 41 Số S1 - Trang 3-33 - 2020
Michał Bilewicz, Wiktor Soral
Exposure to derogatory language about immigrants and minority groups leads to
political radicalization and deteriorates intergroup relations. This article
addresses the psychological processes responsible for these effects as well as
those involved in hate‐speech proliferation in contemporary societies and
discusses the factors that constrain its growth. We propose that frequent
exposure to hate s... hiện toàn bộ
Measuring Stereotypes of Female PoliticiansPolitical Psychology - Tập 35 Số 2 - Trang 245-266 - 2014
Monica C. Schneider, Angela L. Bos
One explanation for the dearth of women in elected office is that voters
stereotype candidates based on their gender. Research in this vein often assumes
that female candidates will be stereotyped similarly to women (e.g., as
compassionate) and measures stereotypes as such. We question this assumption,
proposing instead that female politicians constitute a subtype—a new
stereotypical category with... hiện toàn bộ
