The present work examines for the first time the short-term effects of interacting with an AI-based agent in the work domain on self-efficacy, self-objectification and beliefs in free will. In the first and second studies, scenarios describing the process of evaluating candidates for a job position were used to test the effects of interacting with an AI agent (vs. a human recruiter) on self-efficacy, self-objectification and beliefs in free will. In the third study, the experimental manipulation was carried out by adopting a real AI-based recruiting system to foster greater ecological validity. Findings consistently show that being evaluated by an AI recruiter (vs. a human recruiter) significantly lowers self-efficacy beliefs and increases self-objectification, leading, in turn, to a reduction in beliefs in free will. These results provide new insights into the workplace's self-objectification process, indicating how it might be triggered during interactions with modern AI technologies. Considerations on adopting AI technologies in the work domain are discussed, emphasising the need for AI systems to support, rather than replace, human agency.</p>","PeriodicalId":47850,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Community & Applied Social Psychology","volume":"35 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/casp.70107","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143871793","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Children experienced prolonged physical isolation from their peers, teachers, and networks, which negatively affected their mental health. When schools re-opened, children were required to comply with containment rules against the spread of the virus whilst still suffering the psychological consequences of the pandemic. Whereas extensive research has examined the detrimental consequences of the lockdown, little attention has been devoted to children's experiences during the phases of progressive reduction of isolation. To fill this gap, we aimed to test the effectiveness of an intervention focused on facilitating primary school children's return to school by fostering their self-efficacy in complying with restrictive rules. Two hundred and twenty-one first- to fifth-graders filled out self-efficacy and anxiety measures before and after a story-based intervention paired with playful activities aimed at increasing children's comprehension and compliance with the anti-COVID-19 rules. The hierarchical regression analysis showed that the intervention provided children with confidence in being able to follow the rules through story reading and class activities. Consistent with hypotheses, self-efficacy increased over time as a function of the intervention, and this growth was associated with an anxiety reduction.</p>","PeriodicalId":47850,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Community & Applied Social Psychology","volume":"35 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/casp.70106","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143865854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mere knowledge of cross-group friendships (extended contact) or observing positive contact (vicarious contact) can also reduce prejudice. This raises the question of whether these indirect forms of contact might also undermine collective action. We conducted a mini-meta-analysis of eight unpublished studies, including a range of intergroup contexts and samples, that measured indirect contact with advantaged group members and collective action among disadvantaged groups.

Person-centred approaches show that immigrants have varying approaches to negotiating their cultural identities, but contextual explanations of these patterns have yet to be explored. Using latent profile analyses, we explored profiles of multicultural identity among U.S. immigrant-origin emerging adults (<i>N</i> = 253; 35.4% first generation; 53.1% female; ages 18–29) and examined how multiple levels of the social context contributed to their multicultural identity styles. We identified four multicultural identity styles that varied in their approach to ethnic identity, American identity and cultural identity strategies: <i>EI Oriented Bicultural</i> (39.68%), <i>Balanced Bicultural</i> (29.15%), <i>EI Oriented Separated</i> (18.22%) and <i>Low EI Diffused</i> (12.95%). Next, we examined how contextual factors were associated with profile membership. We found that inclusivity of state immigration policy, living in a traditional immigrant destination state, and perceptions of the public's views of immigrants were associated with multicultural identity styles.

Instead of focusing on the focal effect of screen time, we propose that time spent on digital devices may interact with other factors in predicting resource recovery outcomes—the time on digital devices itself could be a distraction that separates people from their family and household roles and obligations and thus may attenuate or amplify the negative relationship between hostile household ecology and resource recovery. In one archival study based on the American Time Use Survey (ATUS) and two daily diary studies of young adults, we found a consistent pattern that the effect of hostile household ecology (e.g., large family size and high levels of home chaos) on recovery-related outcomes was smaller when screen time was higher, depending on the digital device involved.

This study investigates the state of commercial GRAS in the UK, identifying barriers to consumer participation and their potential role in fostering sustainable behaviour. Through a comprehensive typology of UK GRAS providers and a thematic analysis of customer reviews, we reveal obstacles such as limited repair skills, unclear service information, and gaps in consumer trust. Our findings suggest that bridging these informational and service quality gaps could promote greater use of GRAS, aligning the fashion industry more closely with circular economy principles. In addition, we highlight the potential for GRAS to enhance well-being by developing consumer's emotional attachment to clothing and positive feelings. These findings underscore the dual benefits of GRAS for environmental sustainability and consumer well-being, suggesting broader applications for GRAS in shaping more sustainable consumption patterns.

The present study aimed to investigate the relationship between specific variables assessing students' connections (social exclusion, perceived social support, and psychological sense of community) and the intention to leave the university and the academic degree. An online questionnaire was completed by 7096 students from a large Italian university. The results showed that experiences of social exclusion were significantly associated with a higher intention to leave the university and the academic degree, while social support and sense of community were associated with a lower intention. The moderation model showed that the relationship between the experiences of exclusion and the intention to leave was no more significant if the respondents experienced a high sense of community.
