This matters both for positive audience experience and for crowd safety. Whilst some previous studies have examined violence in music audiences, there is almost no research looking at the current phenomenon of varied forms of disruption, the psychological antecedents of disruptive behavior, and potential mitigations. We report three studies addressing these questions experientially, observationally, and statistically, with interviews (<i>n</i> = 27), an ethnographic field study at a live music festival (<i>n</i><sub>performances</sub> = 13, <i>n</i><sub>interviews</sub> = 44), and a pre-registered questionnaire survey (<i>n</i> = 2,025). Results suggest that audience perceptions of disruption are sometimes contingent upon perceived group norms. Reports of disruption can occur where there is normative misalignment between disparate groups in attendance at the same event. Audience members do attempt to regulate each other's behavior, based on expectations of support, but some interventions can themselves be disruptive. We offer recommendations to venues and event organizers on how to reduce disruptive behavior, based on social identity and group norms. The results from the questionnaire survey have been certified as computationally reproducible by an independent statistician.</p>","PeriodicalId":46799,"journal":{"name":"Analyses of Social Issues and Public Policy","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://spssi.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/asap.70060","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146224274","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drwecki, Hannah Fenton","doi":"10.1111/asap.70059","DOIUrl":"10.1111/asap.70059","url":null,"abstract":"<p>Increases in support for the Make America Great Again (MAGA) political movement and decreases in support for Black Lives Matter (BLM) colloquially fluctuate with media coverage that downplayed MAGA violence while overcovering BLM violence. This experiment investigates how exposure to media portrayals of political violence (i.e. violent and destructive protesting) impacts political support among both real-world contexts. In Experiment 1, exposure to violent MAGA protests decreased MAGA support from MAGA's staunchest supporters, an effect mediated by perceptions of violent behavior and tendencies of the protestors. In Experiment 2, exposure to violent BLM protests had virtually no impact on political support and an inconclusive impact on perceptions of violent behavior and tendencies in the protestors. The asymmetric effects observed suggest differential baseline exposure to violent political content: MAGA supporters appear responsive to violent media portrayals because media exposure to violent MAGA behavior is relatively novel within conservative media streams, whereas BLM supporters’ relative lack of response is consistent with media saturation where BLM violence was exaggerated within the media. Consequently, underexposure to MAGA-associated violence and overexposure to BLM-associated violence may help explain recent political shifts both toward MAGA and away from BLM. More broadly, media suppression and exaggeration of political violence represent two methods for shaping political support and political power, highlighting the importance of accurate media coverage of political violence.</p>","PeriodicalId":46799,"journal":{"name":"Analyses of Social Issues and Public Policy","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146256441","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Meanwhile, the increasing number of migrants in cities might render indigenous urban residents the future numerical minority. Drawing from social identity theory, uncertainty-identity theory, and intergroup threat theory, I hypothesized that such urban population changes in China could elevate prejudice toward rural-to-urban migrant workers by eliciting status threat, entitativity threat, realistic threat, and symbolic threat to urban residents. Two experiments (<i>N</i><sub>total</sub> = 716) conducted in Shanghai partially supported the hypotheses. Results showed that Shanghai residents reminded of the urban population changes (vs. irrelevant information) reported higher status and entitativity threats to their urban identity, which in turn predicted increased prejudice toward migrant workers and non-locals. This work sheds new light on how urban demographic change fosters prejudice against internal migrants in China, and has important implications for developing policies to mitigate such prejudice and enhance the intergroup relations between urban residents and migrants.</p>","PeriodicalId":46799,"journal":{"name":"Analyses of Social Issues and Public Policy","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2026-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147280090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We argue that linked fate, the extent to which racial and ethnic minorities believe that their individual well-being is conditioned upon society's views of their minority group, helps explain Latino political identification and vote choice. Using a survey, we find that higher levels of linked fate are related to lower support of Donald Trump.

Because SGM individuals’ STEM belonging and motivation are believed to follow similar psychological processes to other underrepresented groups in STEM, we examined how expectations for success in STEM, personal endorsement of masculinity/femininity and agency/communion, and the masculine (unfeminine) and agentic (uncommunal) nature of STEM are associated with STEM motivation and belonging depending on participants’ sexual and gender identities. Men expressed greater STEM belonging and motivation than women, and STEM fields were perceived as more masculine and agentic than feminine and communal. Participants’ expectations for success in STEM were positively associated with STEM belonging and motivation. Perceiving agentic and communal opportunities in STEM also positively predicted STEM belonging and motivation. For SGM individuals, perceiving feminine gender expression in STEM was associated with increased STEM belonging and motivation (particularly for SGM women).
