Across three experiments (N = 1609) using a hypothetical simulation framework, we provide the first evidence of a causal link between motivational frame matching and positive interaction outcomes in three intelligence-gathering contexts. In all experiments, participants actively responded through instrumental, relational or identity motivational frames towards an investigative interviewer, rival sports supporter or HR representative, who did (did not) match them back. Results showed that within a competitive interaction, motivational frame matching consistently led to more positive interaction outcomes. Within a cooperative interaction, motivational frame matching led to more positive interaction outcomes for all measured variables (in the investigative interview) and greater feelings of being understood and a higher willingness to identify with the rival supporter, with limited positive effects in the HR interview. In all experiments, participants displayed more reciprocal matching when interacting with a matching versus a nonmatching interaction partner, and this translated into increased information provision in an adapted trust game where participants could send information in exchange for money.","PeriodicalId":48377,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Social Psychology","volume":"56 1","pages":"225-256"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ejsp.70039","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146223909","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 small-world theory and social identity theory, we propose a dual-layer approach that combines semantic and network analysis to investigate the dynamics of group formation on X/Twitter during the 2021 COVID-19 vaccination campaign in South Africa. Our findings reveal a nuanced process of social sorting, where users actively align with like-minded individuals and differentiate from opposing viewpoints, shaping the formation of distinct online communities. Although a weak correlation exists between network distance and semantic similarity, our parallel examination highlights a clear trend of clustering around shared opinions. Notably, we find evidence that distance and proximity are not opposites but qualitatively different social psychological processes. Language becomes a more prominent marker of group membership over time, especially among pro-vaccination users. This suggests a dynamic process where opinion alignment is solidified through linguistic differentiation. Such sorting mechanism leads to the creation of social barriers and group boundaries. Our findings underscore the necessity of considering both structural and symbolic aspects in understanding the complex dynamics of opinion-based groups on social media. We propose a multilayer design to understand how individuals sort themselves and others within the complexities of online information flows. This approach unveils how people align with and differentiate from others, shaping the formation of opinion-based groups on social media.","PeriodicalId":48377,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Social Psychology","volume":"56 1","pages":"210-224"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ejsp.70038","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146224427","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}

Through the lens of the COVID-19 pandemic in Ecuador, this study addresses calls for increased insights into how processes of responding to government measures function during societal crises and ruptures. I propose multilevel narrative engagement as a conceptual tool for understanding how citizens navigate narratives from global, national, community, and interpersonal levels when responding to crisis policies. Through an empirical investigation, I find that Ecuadorian interview participants used a protection narrative, an informed choice narrative, and an injustice narrative when making meaning of the government's COVID-19 measures, depending on their multilevel narrative engagement. Through these narratives, the agency and responsibility of citizens and authorities to manage the crisis were interpreted differently, leading to distinct perceptions of non-compliance and the legitimacy of the measures. Insights from the study can inform future crisis management that depends on how citizens react to crisis mitigation measures.","PeriodicalId":48377,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Social Psychology","volume":"56 1","pages":"160-175"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ejsp.70031","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146224236","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}

We predicted that individuals would demonstrate a similar bias. An experiment with 282 Canadian participants revealed just the opposite: when asked overtly, participants judged a video attributed to their own government to be more like propaganda than identical foreign media. When asked covertly (e.g., about the video's bias), we observed no effect, and national identity was not a moderator for Canadians. In a direct replication, Americans (N = 457) also judged domestic videos as more like propaganda than foreign ones, whether perceptions of propaganda were measured overtly or covertly. This difference was especially true of those lower and average in national identity, compared to those higher. A follow-up study demonstrated that Americans (N = 380) who are left-leaning are more likely to show this bias against domestic media, compared to those who are centrist or right-leaning. These studies demonstrate that people can be more critical of their own government's messaging relative to the same messaging by a foreign power, the opposite of holding a self-serving double standard.","PeriodicalId":48377,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Social Psychology","volume":"56 1","pages":"147-159"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ejsp.70035","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146224105","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}

In two pre-registered experiments (N = 2060), we examined how these characteristics—and their interaction—influence attitudes and cooperation intentions among members of the dominant subgroup and whether perceived competition over prototypicality and symbolic threat mediate these effects. Across both studies, when an emergent subgroup was perceived as ideologically distinct, it led to negative intergroup relations through both the perception of competition over prototypicality and symbolic threat. In contrast, perceiving a subgroup as attracting social recognition generally fostered positive intergroup relations, despite also heightening perception of competition over prototypicality.

However, less is known about the extent to which the state of democracy may affect conspiracy beliefs. Hence, we investigated the impact of the societal level of freedom of speech on conspiracy beliefs. In Study 1, using aggregated nation-level data (N = 68 countries), we found that conspiracy beliefs were higher in countries with lower population support for and lower expert-estimated freedom of speech. However, this effect was no longer significant after controlling for two confounders: corruption and electoral democracy. In Study 2a (N = 190, preregistered), inducing low (vs. high) freedom of speech increased conspiracy beliefs in a fictional society. We replicated this effect in Study 2b (N = 90, preregistered), extending it to generic conspiracy beliefs. In Study 3a (N = 436, preregistered), we successfully designed a new induction of freedom of speech in an ecological setting but failed to replicate its effect on conspiracy beliefs. We adjusted this new experimental material in Study 3b (N = 498, preregistered) and observed higher conspiracy beliefs under low freedom of speech, compared to the high freedom of speech and control conditions, which did not differ. Hence, the effect stemmed from low freedom of speech increasing conspiracy beliefs, rather than high freedom of speech reducing them. In Studies 2–3, the effect of freedom of speech remained significant when controlling for perceptions of democracy, highlighting the unique nature of this societal factor in shaping conspiracy beliefs. We discuss freedom of speech as a way to mitigate conspiracy beliefs.","PeriodicalId":48377,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Social Psychology","volume":"56 1","pages":"115-130"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/ejsp.70029","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146224513","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}

Patriotism among settler colonisers should therefore discourage marginalising Indigenous culture (low symbolic exclusion) yet encourage denying the contemporary relevance of colonial injustices (high historical negation). Using a random intercepts cross-lagged panel model (RI-CLPM), we test the within-person effects of both patriotism and nationalism on symbolic exclusion and historical negation over 9 years among a nationwide sample of New Zealand Europeans (N = 22,547). As hypothesised, patriotism (but not nationalism) uniquely predicted within-person decreases in symbolic exclusion and increases in historical negation over time. Results replicated when (a) excluding nationalism and (b) examining patriotism's impact on symbolic- and resource-based policy opposition. Thus, patriotism among settler colonisers simultaneously motivates the symbolic projection of Indigenous culture and the denial of the enduring impact of colonial injustices.
