Based on a sample of 381 high school students, we explored whether vulnerable narcissism, exacerbated by the use of SNSs and low self-esteem, contributes to difficulties in establishing community relationships. Hypotheses were tested to examine the associations among narcissism, sense of community, and self-esteem, with the use of SNSs as a moderating factor. The results indicated a negative relationship between narcissism and sense of community, with self-esteem mediating this relationship. Furthermore, the low or high use of SNSs moderates the negative relationship between narcissism and sense of community and self-esteem such that with high use of social media, the relationship becomes positive. These findings suggest that vulnerable-narcissist adolescents use social sites as facilitators of community relationships and support of their self-esteem. Conversely, adolescents with low usage are less inclined to support real-life comparisons, perceiving the community as a dangerous testing ground to avoid.

As most refugees do not return to their countries of origin, understanding successful resettlement should be prioritised. Acculturation and psychological resilience are useful concepts, as both acknowledge the interplay between individual and contextual factors in sociocultural adjustment. However, less is known about the role of resilience in the selection and maintenance of acculturation strategies, especially among refugee youth. This qualitative interview study aimed to investigate how acculturation strategies may be shaped by risks and resources using a socioecological resilience framework. The narratives of 22 refugee youth in Sweden were explored using reflexive thematic analysis. Deductive coding, informed by an established socioecological model of immigrant youth adaptation, examined the interplay between individual acculturation motivations and contextual factors. The analysis resulted in six themes: (1) <i>war, peace, and opportunities</i> (global forces); (2) <i>(dis)orientation and comparisons</i> (socio-political context); (3) <i>aiming for integration</i> (individual/motivation to acculturate); (4) <i>learning to belong</i> (microsystem—school); (5) <i>inclusion and exclusion</i> (microsystem—friends); (6) <i>support, conflict, and accord</i> (microsystem—family).

In the present research, we examined how causal attributions for income status impact the relationships between personal income status and subjective well-being in American samples. In Study 1, participants' income-attribution types were assessed, whereas in Study 2, participants were randomly assigned to one of three priming conditions about the causes of income status: individualistic, structural vs. luck attributions. The results of both studies showed that higher income status was linked to less perceived deprivation and greater life satisfaction for participants with (or primed with) structural attributions; however, these income effects were reduced (Study 1) or insignificant (Study 2) for participants with (or primed with) individualistic attributions. Moreover, Study 2 found that the income effects were the strongest for participants primed with luck attributions among the three attribution groups. The results suggest that as the sense of control reduces, the associations between income and well-being increase. The research sheds light on how meaning systems, such as attributional beliefs, moderate people's psychological responses to income status, which could then help explain or predict different behavioural responses.

Thematic analysis was deployed to analyse the gathered qualitative data. The study found that corporate social responsibilities undertaken by the University of Cape Coast, Ghana, in its surrounding communities covered areas such as education, employment, health and security. However, interaction with the surrounding communities revealed that the CSRs appeared not to be effective, adequate and responsive to their needs. The study further found that though CSR could lead to a cordial relationship between the two entities, this was not the case due to the perceived ineffective, inadequate and irresponsive CSR of the university towards the surrounding communities. Finally, the findings showed that the surrounding communities expected the University to support them through the provision of school blocks and computers for their basic schools, public toilets and markets, street lights, provision of fully furnished CHPS compounds and health education. It was, therefore, recommended that the University management should come up with a clear policy that distinguishes between CSR for the surrounding communities and the general public in terms of education, health, security and community development, among others.

Communication that focuses on the economic dimension could be one way to increase the limited support of right-wing audiences for climate policy. In two experimental studies, we examined how a message advocating a switch from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources affects participants' support for this policy. The message focused on the environmental or economic consequences of the policy (Studies 1 and 2), was framed in terms of gain or loss (Study 1) and was attributed to different sources (Study 2). Participants' political orientation and their beliefs and concerns about climate change were also assessed. The results showed that attitudes towards climate change and support for the policy were strongly related to political orientation. Right-leaning participants were significantly less concerned about climate change and less supportive of the proposed policy. This effect was moderated by the focus of the message, as right-leaning participants agreed more with the economic focus message than the environmental focus message, while left-leaning participants did the opposite.

The digitisation of services enables the efficient provision of different services including those used during imprisonment. The objective of this study is to investigate the significance of trust in the use of digital social and healthcare services among incarcerated people. Many studies have found that trust has an effect on intention to use digital social and healthcare services; however, the matter has not been studied among incarcerated people. This study asks two principal questions: How do incarcerated people's levels of trust in the internet and social and healthcare services affect their intention to use digital services? What factors explain incarcerated people's levels of trust? A cross-sectional survey (<i>n</i> = 225) was carried out in 11 prisons in Finland and the results analysed using the Pearson product–moment correlation coefficient, a two-tailed <i>t</i>-test, and linear regression analysis. Since prisons are a quite unique context from the point of view of the use of digital services and there is no previous research on trust in digital social and healthcare services among incarcerated people, the statistical analysis was supplemented with qualitative interview data (<i>n</i> = 18). The study shows the importance of trust in relation to the use of digital social and healthcare services among incarcerated people. Previous use of services is positively associated with trust, and deficiencies in basic digital skills are negatively associated with trust. The qualitative analysis reveals that positive experiences of the trustworthiness of social and healthcare services do not always lead to affective trust.
