A discussion of early maladaptive schemas in men convicted sexual offenders in Poland
Introduction: This study aims to explore differences in the prevalence of early maladaptive schemas (EMS) in convicted sexual offenders (CSO’s) as compared to the general male population (control group). Methods: The study included 102 men incarcerated for sexual offences and 167 men from a non-criminal population. The study used the Polish version of Young’s schema questionnaire – YSQ-S3-PL. Results: The results demonstrated a higher degree of EMS severity in CSO except in the ‘impaired limits’ domain where non-criminal individuals scored higher. The individuals who have committed sexual offenses displayed more extensive and severe schemas than non-criminal / non-treated males (including more EMS domains). Discussion: The study revealed nine early maladaptive schemas characterising the specific mind-set of male sex offender convicts. The results seem to illustrate well the genesis of the formation of a disordered personality as described by J. Young within the schema therapy concept. In the context of the cited studies, these structures – in addition to their important role in the development of psychopathology – appear to contribute to sexual offending. Conclusions: The conclusion emerging from the findings is that EMS are an important problem for Individuals involved in sexual offending. A consideration of these schemas in the psychotherapy of CSO’s would help develop new and effective therapeutic protocols designed to treat that particular population and reduce the rate of repeat offending. - 2024-07
Market mindset can increase allocations in the trust game through proportional thinking
Prior research has demonstrated that adopting the market mindset hinders interpersonal trust. In the present work, we show that this effect is not universal, as trust can rise when people with the market mindset perceive the situation as resembling market-pricing principles. We start with showing that the Trust Game represents an interaction that people perceive as being more similar to market-pricing relationships rather than to communal-sharing relationships (Pilot Study; N = 114). In a series of three experiments, we then demonstrate that (1) compared to controls, participants with the market mindset make larger allocations in the Trust Game (Experiment 1; N = 131); (2) this effect is mediated by the motivation to use proportional thinking (preregistered Experiment 2; N = 581); and (3) compared to controls, people with the market mindset are more sensitive to proportions - their allocations in the Trust Game are significantly higher when multiplied by four compared to when multiplied by two (preregistered Experiment 3; N = 931).

Political engagement and political views of young people in Poland
The political participation and political views of young people have been the subject of debate in political, media, and academic circles for many years. This debate reflects opinions that are somewhat contradictory. On the one hand, research suggests that young people’s engagement at the traditional level—voting in parliamentary elections and participation in political parties—has declined in many countries (Henn & Weinstein, 2006; Pazderski, 2018; Szafraniec et al., 2017). This decline is explained in part by generational factors (youth as a period in which views are formed), political circumstances (neglect of the youth as an important group of voters), and cultural changes, including a “silent revolution” in which young people are embracing post-material values (Côté, 2014; Inglehart, 2018; Messyasz, 2015). On the other hand, there is a growing body of studies on noninstitutional forms of political participation by young people, including volunteering, new protest movements, online activism, and lifestyle politics, such as boycotting products for political reasons (Cammaerts et al., 2015; Giugni & Grasso, 2021; Hurrelmann & Albrecht, 2021). In this context, it is argued that a broader understanding of political participation should be considered, including new channels of mobilization (e.g., online engagement), and diversification of agencies, repertoires of actions, and targets whom participants seek to influence (Côté, 2014; Norris, 2002). - 2023-02-20
A brief internet-based passive psychoeducation intervention to promote healthy relationships among young adults: a pilot randomised placebo-controlled trial
This pilot RCT tested the potential efficacy of a brief internet-based, passive psychoeducation intervention, Free From Abuse, in promoting healthy relationships among young adults. Participants aged 18-24 years were randomly assigned to an intervention-treatment (n = 71) or a placebo-control condition (n = 77). Participants in the treatment arm had a larger increase in recognition of abusive behaviour and reduction in domestic violence myth acceptance scores than participants in the control arm post-intervention and after one week. This study provides preliminary evidence that brief internet-based passive psychoeducation is potentially useful in promoting healthy relationships among young adults.

Mind the Like-Minded. The Role of Social Identity in Prosocial Crowdfunding
Current social challenges have increased the interest in globally spread collective actions, especially those taking place in virtual space. Crowdfunding is one form of online activism that has recently gained importance. Although research conducted so far indicates the significance of social motives among participants of crowdfunding campaigns, knowledge about the psychosocial mechanisms involved in its effectiveness is limited. This article attempts to reinforce the position of crowdfunding as one of the forms of collective action and to expand knowledge about possible psychosocial factors that could shape participation in crowdfunding campaigns. In three pre-registered studies (N = 823), we found that the social identity based on a shared worldview positively correlated with the intention to participate in prosocial crowdfunding. Moreover, the relationship between opinion-based group identity and collective action varied depending on participation type (predicted vs. experienced engagement in a campaign). In other words, when people gather in communities built around shared opinions on a given social issue, they develop a sense of community, which can translate into activities for the benefit of the group such as supporting crowdfunding campaigns. However, in the case of actual behaviour, unlike with the declaration of participation, the strength of the relationship with social identity significantly diminishes. The results are discussed in relation to the theory of collective action. - 2022-12-15
ethnoVR 2.0.: A first-person experience of cross-cultural misunderstanding in Virtual Reality
EthnoVR is an immersive first-person perspective experience of cross-cultural misunderstanding. The scenario, developed using the critical incidents method, covers a situation of cooperation between Chinese and Polish students. A quantitative investigation of the impact of 360 video (N=100) showed a reduction in ethnocentrism and an increase in cognitive empathy. In this paper we introduce the second iteration of ethnoVR - supplemented with extended content, available in English, Chinese and Polish. Additionally, we conducted qualitative UX research (N=31) which allowed us to map the emotions of users and the emotions they attributed to the characters in the movie. - 2023-10-02
National narcissism in politics and public understanding of science
People seek to belong to groups that they evaluate positively and identify with. A strong ingroup identity is typically thought to bring about positive outcomes for the individuals and for the group. However, when group identity is motivated by frustrated psychological needs, it can manifest as collective narcissism — a belief that one’s group is exceptional and deserves special treatment. Such a defensive ingroup identity is related to a motivated social cognition focused on the enhancement and protection of the ingroup image, even at the expense of ingroup members. In this Review, we consider the implications of differentiating collective narcissism from ingroup identification in the national context, and their different intragroup and intergroup manifestations. We focus on two domains: political attitudes and behaviours as well as the public understanding of science related to health and environmental protection. We outline how concerns for national image enhancement and protection can shape political and social manifestations of national narcissism, such as susceptibility to narratives that enhance the national image, sensitivity to disrespect and suspicion of outgroups, and acceptance of misinformation. Rural protest 2012-2022
The database contains occurrences of collective acts of rural protest. It contains a catalogue of all publicly registered rural collective protests events in 2012–2022—a universe. Definition Rural is defined as either 1. occurring within a rural area; or 2. involving rural actors (groups or organizations based in rural communities; or 3. pertaining to issues specific to the countryside, rural life, rural issues, agriculture or the natural environment. “Public” is understood to mean an action which is reported in at least one source. “Collective” is an action undertaken by at least three people. A collective public event is an act of protest if it is undertaken to articulate certain specified demands and is not a routine or legally prescribed behaviour of a social or political organization and whose form deviates from the routinely accepted way of voicing demands. Demands are “articulated” when the participants (whether organized or not) turn to institutions, organizations and enterprises, both public and private, and: express demands addressed at the public. A single protest event may include the activity of several separate groups or organizations. Unit of analysis The unit of analysis combines information derived from a series of articles from all the analysed publications dealing with one particular protest event or with a series of activities which can be defined as a single collective public protest event. Sources The methodology was used to collect information from sectoral (agricultural) and local sources. The sources of information are media which focus their reporting on rural affairs and the countryside. Their content was stored by and commissioned from a specialized company.

Emotion regulation in everyday life: Mapping global self-reports to daily processes.
Recent theory conceptualizes emotion regulation as occurring across three stages: (a) identifying the need to regulate, (b) selecting a strategy, and (c) implementing that strategy to modify emotions. Yet, measurement of emotion regulation has not kept pace with these theoretical advances. In particular, widely used global self-report questionnaires are often assumed to index people’s typical strategy selection tendencies. However, it is unclear how well global self-reports capture individual differences in strategy selection and/or whether they may also index other emotion regulation stages. To address this issue, we examined how global self-report measures correspond with the three stages of emotion regulation as modeled using daily life data. We analyzed data from nine daily diary and experience sampling studies (total N = 1,097), in which participants provided daily and global self-reports of cognitive reappraisal, expressive suppression, and rumination. We found only weak-to-moderate correlations between global self-reports and average daily self-reports of each regulation strategy (indexing strategy selection). Global self-reports also correlated with individual differences in the degree to which (a) preceding affect experience predicted regulation strategies (representing the identification stage), and (b) regulation strategies predicted subsequent changes in affective experience (representing the implementation stage). Our findings suggest that global self-report measures of reappraisal, suppression, and rumination may not strongly and uniquely correlate with individual differences in daily selection of these strategies. Moreover, global self-report measures may also index individual differences in the perceived need to regulate, and the affective consequences of regulation in daily life.
