Still, few have addressed the issue concerning migration from honor to dignity cultures, where the lives of these migrants are shaped by both, the honor culture of origin and the host culture of dignity. The purpose of the present study is to test the association between acculturation and honor-dignity endorsement by comparing Indian (<em>N</em> = 317), German (<em>N</em> = 312), and Indian migrant participants in Germany (<em>N</em> = 320). Participants completed online measures assessing the endorsement of both, honor and dignity norms, and their responses to hypothetical threat scenarios. Migrant participants additionally completed an acculturation assessment based on Berry’s (1997) psychological model and Esser’s (2001) sociological framework. Results revealed that Indian migrant participants endorsed both honor and dignity norms significantly stronger than Indian participants in India and German participants. They also reacted more intensely to honor threats than both native groups, and their dignity threat responses were comparable to those of German participants. We explored this further by examining its connection with acculturation. From Berry’s strategies, only integration positively predicted the endorsement of both these norms. Moreover, sociological factors like language acquisition and interracial friendships predicted greater dignity norm endorsement. By incorporating both honor and dignity into acculturation research, this study offers insights into cultural adaptation, paving the way for practical strategies to enhance migrant integration and cross-cultural understanding.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":72748,"journal":{"name":"Current research in ecological and social psychology","volume":"11 ","pages":"Article 100284"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148588594","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We obtained partial scalar invariance across a subset of religious groups.

Latent means were overall highest for Believing and lowest for Belonging, with Evangelicals scoring highest on all dimensions. Both the invariance and latent mean patterns were replicated and further differentiated in a replication study. Our study demonstrates the utility of within-cultural invariance analysis and highlights the importance of statistical replications for exploring cognitive dimensions underlying survey responses.

This study investigated the connections between perceptions of nature’s value and traditional religious-oriented worldviews, including animism and anthropocentrism. To explore whether the three types of nature’s value are applicable in a non-Western context, we conducted a preregistered online survey with 745 Japanese participants. Our findings indicate that (i) relational value is linked to traditional religious-oriented worldviews; (ii) relational value shows a strong association with scales measuring human-nature relationships; and (iii) the distinctions among instrumental, intrinsic, and relational values extend beyond Western contexts.

Analysing survey data from 985 adults, the study deconstructs a national paradox: rapid success in monetised recycling (Deposit-Refund System, DRS) occurring alongside some of the EU’s highest consumption of single-use plastic bags. Results reveal a stark divergence across generations. The post-Soviet born generation (18–25 years) is primarily driven by gain goal frames, exhibiting high DRS participation but significant resistance to non-monetised waste sorting. Conversely, older cohorts (46+ years) demonstrate a moral goal frame, maintaining pro-environmental behaviour based on internal values rather than financial incentives. This confirms a theoretical distinction between moral and normative drivers, challenging the assumption that their actions merely reflect a normative goal frame tied to Soviet-era habits of obedience. Meanwhile, the transitional cohort (26–45 years) exhibits a mix of these motivations, reflecting their formative years during Latvia’s systemic shift to independence. The findings suggest that while gain-framed interventions, such as DRS, effectively overcome hedonic barriers among younger cohorts, relying solely on financial incentives reinforces a transactional mindset that fails to motivate non-monetised recycling. This necessitates segmented policy interventions tailored to distinct generational drivers. For youth, gamification through point-based apps can activate a hedonic goal frame, substituting for absent intrinsic motivation by making recycling immediately rewarding. Conversely, targeted messaging should appeal to older generations’ intrinsic civic stewardship.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":72748,"journal":{"name":"Current research in ecological and social psychology","volume":"11 ","pages":"Article 100285"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2026-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148958857","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
