The present research aims to clarify the causal psychological consequences of state existential isolation (i.e. feeling alone in one's subjective experiences) and to examine how these consequences overlap with, or diverge from, those elicited by other isolating experiences (i.e. social exclusion, being physically alone). Across three studies, we examined how experimentally induced existential isolation influences threat to fundamental social needs and emotional well-being, relative to neutral events and other forms of social disconnection. Results indicate that manipulations designed to elicit existential isolation reliably increase state existential isolation and threaten social needs (Studies 1-3), often comparably to manipulations of social exclusion (Study 2) and, in some cases, exceeding those associated with being physically alone (Study 3). Exploratory analyses of open-ended narratives suggest an overlap in the affective and contextual features of existential isolation, exclusion, and interpersonal isolation. Together, these findings underscore the importance of experimentally distinguishing existential isolation from related constructs to better understand the mechanisms through which social disconnection undermines psychological well-being.","PeriodicalId":48205,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2026-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147785974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In two exploratory studies, participants spontaneously used deflections in video-recorded and written social rejections (N1 = 497, 19.1% deflections; N2 = 94, 35.1% deflections). In two preregistered studies (N3 = 1213; N4 = 933), participants imagined themselves as rejectors and as rejectees across multiple contexts (Study 3) and as rejectees in situations with acquaintances or close friends (Study 4). Participants preferred rejections with deflections compared to rejections without, and particularly preferred \"nothing personal.\" The present research addresses the struggle to find the right words for social rejection and opens an avenue for investigation of when and how language may soften the blow.","PeriodicalId":48205,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-19"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2026-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147730393","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on Moral Foundations Theory, we conducted two studies in Spain to explore how individualizing (particularly care) and binding (particularly purity) foundations contribute to HIV-related stigma, and whether this relationship is mediated by the moralization of HIV. In Study 1, binding foundations were associated with higher levels of HIV moralization and HIV-related stigma, while individualizing foundations predicted lower levels of both. In Study 2, we contrasted care- versus purity-based moral framing and assessed the moralization of HIV and several measures of HIV-related stigma, as in Study 1. Participants exposed to messages emphasizing the social benefits of purity (vs. care) were more likely to moralize HIV and express negative attitudes toward people with HIV; however, neither framing condition differed from the control condition. Moreover, indirect effects indicated that purity framing may heighten HIV-related stigma through increased moralization of HIV. These findings suggest that moral concerns - particularly purity - contribute to HIV-related stigma by imbuing HIV with moral significance. We discuss the implications for HIV stigma-reduction strategies.","PeriodicalId":48205,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-20"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2026-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147693023","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Building on previous research on intergroup stereotypes and social identity theories, the current study investigated a three-way interaction between perceived warmth and competence of the outgroup, and a common ingroup identity, on the outgroup admiration in the context of the South and North Korea conflict. We conducted a nationwide survey with 500 South Koreans. The results indicated that participants who viewed outgroup members (i.e., North Koreans) as both warm and competent exhibited greater admiration for the outgroup. Importantly, this pattern was significant only for individuals with a strong common ingroup identity, rather than those with a weak identity. Outgroup admiration, which in turn positively predicted reconciliatory attitudes between the ingroup and the outgroup, mediated the interactive effect of stereotypical perceptions and common ingroup identity on reconciliatory attitudes. We highlight the catalytic role of common ingroup identity in shaping the relationship between stereotypical perceptions, outgroup admiration, and reconciliatory attitudes within intergroup intractable conflict.","PeriodicalId":48205,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2026-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147576034","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Guided by the need to belong and the motivational model of alcohol use, this research evaluates whether students experience alcohol-related problems (e.g. hangovers, missing school or work) in response to a perceived lack of social connection. Specifically, we explore how feelings of loneliness are related to alcohol-related consequences, and whether this is mediated by coping, social, enhancement, and conformity drinking motives over 12 months in a sample of 591 heavy-drinking college students. Results from generalized linear mixed models revealed that, on average and controlling for the amount of alcohol consumed, students who were higher in loneliness reported more alcohol-related consequences (between-person effects) than those who were less lonely. This association was mediated by coping and social drinking motives, suggesting alcohol may have been used both to manage negative affect related to loneliness and to bolster interpersonal connections. Further, alcohol-related consequences were higher when students reported feeling lonelier than their typical levels (within-person effects), an association mediated by coping, social, and conformity motives. These results demonstrate how some students use alcohol as a way to internally cope with or externally manage a potentially thwarted need to belong.","PeriodicalId":48205,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Psychology","volume":" ","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2026-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147379187","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
