However, it is unknown how to best enhance a person's intellectual humility in experiments or interventions. Therefore, we studied how to promote intellectual humility by adapting and conceptually replicating five different approaches suggested in previous work: the explanatory depth approach, growth mindset intervention, a humility information text, listing unknowns and self-distancing. Results of a preregistered online intervention tournament (N1 = 1503) showed that intellectual humility about political topics was enhanced via providing information about the benefits of intellectual humility in controversial political discussions. Study 2 replicated and extended this finding regarding expressed intellectual humility in written text with a sample quota-stratified for Germany's population regarding age, gender and education (N2 = 1654). However, the intervention did not lead to higher engagement with diverse viewpoints and effects on general intellectual humility and pre–post differences in self-rated knowledge were inconsistent. We discuss how our studies provide a starting point for effectively increasing intellectual humility in experiments and in interventions.\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":48377,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Social Psychology","volume":"55 5","pages":"912-930"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144768073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We examined the role of a cultural logic of honour—where apologizing may clash with concerns about maintaining an image of strength and toughness—in reluctance to apologize. Using general population samples from 14 societies in Mediterranean, East Asian and Anglo-Western regions (N = 5471), we explored links between honour values and norms, image concerns, and apology outcomes using multilevel mediation analyses. Members of groups with stronger honour endorsement reported stronger image concerns about apologizing relative to their concerns about not apologizing, which, in turn, predicted greater reluctance to apologize and fewer past apologies. However, groups with stronger honour endorsement did not show greater reluctance to apologize overall, and some individual-level facets of honour predicted better apology outcomes. Our results highlight the importance of considering honour as a multifaceted construct and including contextual factors and processes when studying reconciliation processes and obstacles to apologies.","PeriodicalId":48377,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Social Psychology","volume":"55 5","pages":"893-911"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ejsp.70002","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144767610","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Contrary to the status-legitimacy hypothesis, our results often showed that both objective and subjective status were associated with system justification in the opposite direction–even in contexts of high societal inequality.

In the current research, we developed and validated a tool to capture individuals’ perceptions of such a phenomenon and its association with women's well-being. In Study 1 (N = 150 women), we identified a one-factor structure of the scale. Study 2 (N = 360 women) replicated the structure of the scale, while Study 3 extended this evidence in a sample of men (N = 471). Study 4 (N = 335 women and men employees) showed that women's higher awareness of being targets of a perfection bias at work was negatively related to their well-being. Overall, the measure developed provides a new tool to examine a specific facet of gender discrimination. Findings might provide useful insights for stakeholders and policymakers to raise awareness concerning gendered expectations and enhance workplace equality.","PeriodicalId":48377,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Social Psychology","volume":"55 5","pages":"872-892"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ejsp.3175","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144767926","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on construal level theory, we test in five studies whether attitudes towards progressive taxation are improved by high (vs. low) construal communication focusing on generic (vs. specific) taxes that are temporally distant (vs. close). In two experiments (Studies 1 and 2, Ntotal = 522), we orthogonally manipulated the specificity and temporal distance of a tax proposal to disentangle the two sources of construal. Generic tax proposals obtained more consensus than specific ones, while no effect of the temporal distance was found. In Studies 3 (N = 373) and 4 (N = 353), the effect of generic tax proposals was mediated by their enhanced perceived importance. Moreover, we found that specific descriptions of taxes were also functional in promoting support, but only when containing multiple (vs. single) taxes. Study 5 (N = 499, pre-registered) provides compelling results for the central role of perceived importance, which proved as a consistent mediator, resistant to counter-argumentation. Together, our studies suggest that progressive taxation is supported when a radical change in the system is envisioned: A single progressive tax is not enough. Practical implications for tax communication are discussed.","PeriodicalId":48377,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Social Psychology","volume":"55 5","pages":"807-823"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ejsp.3170","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144767426","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
