Research has indicated that many video games are saturated with stereotypes of women and these contents may cultivate sexism. The purpose this study was to assess the relationship between game exposure sexism for first time in a large representative sample. Our aim also measure strength association when two other significant well-studied sources sexism, television religiosity, were included multivariate model. A sample 13520 French youth aged 11-19 years completed survey measuring weekly...

The overuse of online games is known to be inversely related various indicators well-being. This article validates the DSM-5 criteria internet gaming disorder (IGD), and analyzes its links with five well-being: life satisfaction, loneliness, anxiety, depression, academic performance in a French-speaking sample 693 gamers. Exploratory confirmatory factor analyses showed one-factor structure IGD criteria. scale satisfactory validity reliability was consistent way well-being measures. appears...

One key motivating force for bonding across animals is their need to regulate body temperature, also called social thermoregulation. This phenomenon has been extensively documented in animals, but only recently its existence suggested humans. Psychology, however, faced with conflicting findings and the thermoregulation literature no exception. We conducted a meta-analysis of humans goal estimating bias-corrected effect sizes examining evidential value. included studies English on coded based...

While research has consistently demonstrated how autobiographical memory triggers visual exploration, prior studies did not investigate gender differences in this domain. We thus compared eye movement between women and men while performing an retrieval task. invited 35 to retrieve memories their gaze was monitored by tracker. further investigated specificity, that is, the ability detailed memories. The analysis shorter fixations, larger duration amplitude of saccades, higher specificity than...

Previous studies have indicated that temperature regulation is related to social behavior (for an overview, see IJzerman et al., 2015; & Hogerzeil, 2017). However, precise causal relationships between and behaviors are unclear. These links may be better understood by frequently measuring in daily life mapping those measurements onto behaviors. The primary purpose of the present study was enable such validating a new wireless sensor, ISP131001 from Insight SiP, for human peripheral...

Background: Little experimental researches have investigated how alcohol portrayal influences alcohol-related cognitions that could lead to long-term consumption. We identified two potential cognitive processes by which portrayals increased change in consumption: changes implicit attitudes and association between the active self-concept alcohol.Methods: tested participants (n = 87) see if incidental exposure movies resulted indirect measures of toward self-alcohol association. Results showed...

We investigated the cognitive mechanisms underlying change in implicit cognitions following exposure to alcohol portrayals. More precisely, we tested an experimental study whether this depends on controlled or automatic processes by putting participants a state of self-regulatory fatigue prior being exposed Ninety were randomly assigned 2 (attitude measure: before vs after) × (alcohol portrayal: yes no) (ego depletion: mixed design assess effects portrayals affected resources. It was...

Abstract Outgroup perpetrators of discrimination are perceived as more biased than ingroup perpetrators, potentially because perpetrator group membership drives inferences regarding their motivation to discriminate. Consequently, when outgroup provide hostile justification, greater and illegitimacy will be compared do so. In contrast, benevolent justifications reduce differences in perception for versus perpetrators. two experiments ( N s = 243; 382) dealing with sexism racism, results...

Across two experimental studies, we investigated the short-term effect of video games with sexist content (i.e,. representing women as sexual objects and men hyper-masculine) on women’s objectification . We examine whether identifying a masculine character who objectified can increase implicit association self masculinity, which in turn would women. Participants (n study 1 = 69 (32 men, mean age 20.83), n 2 119 (61 20.09)) played either or non-sexist game. measured subsequently (measured...

The aim of this study is to understand how lecturers interpret pedagogical innovations when describing and thinking about their practices. In we analysed the project proposals a large call for in French university questioned managers funded projects conceptions innovations. Results show little theoretical guidance designing suggesting that practical objectives are more important. Projects can be underpinned by one or views; most represented theorical view was constructivism.

Conversational agents (CAs) are increasingly being developed on commercial websites nowadays. We tested in two studies whether gender stereotypes apply to non-gendered CAs. In the first study, participants evaluated CAs expected display more masculine or feminine characteristics situations designed be stereotypically male female. The sexist attitudes of respondents were also measured. As predicted, perceived that a CA should and female situations. Moreover, we found hostile sexism but not...

Do colored backgrounds lead to polarized moral judgments? Zarkadi and Schnall (2013) found in their Study 1 that, indeed, exposing English-speaking participants a black-and-white (versus other colored) background participants’ judgments dilemma task. This study supported intuitionist model of judgment lent further support so-called Conceptual Metaphor Theories (Lakoff & Johnson, 1999), provides evidence that external factors can influence our evaluations. However, as the original...
