“…This there offers a unique moment in history within which to examine the relative strengths of two competing forces in support (or opposition) to mass protests. That is, while recent research has found that fear of COVID-19 is predictive of adherence and support of social distancing and virus-mitigating behaviors (Harper et al, 2020), a desire or perceived duty to act altruistically is also linked to both this outcome (Brooks et al, 2020;Everett et al, 2020;Oosterhoff & Palmer, 2020;Pfattheicher et al, 2020) and engagement in and support social justice and environmental causes (e.g., Cartabuke et al, 2019;Gkargkavouzi et al, 2019). Further, while active social justice protesters are typically characterized by a future-oriented nature (Shavit et al, 2014), engaging in the types of mass protests seen in response to the killing of George Floyd risks increasing the rates of COVID-19 infection in the immediate term, which subsequently increases the likelihood of an exaggerated virus death rate.…”

COVID-19 has plagued the globe since January 2020, infecting millions and claiming the lives of several hundreds of thousands (at the time of writing). Despite this, many individuals have ignored public health guidance and continued to socialize in groups. Emergent work has highlighted the potential role that ideology plays in such behavior, and judgements of it. In response to this contemporary cultural phenomenon, we tested whether judgements of those allegedly flouting the guidance on social distancing were influenced by an interaction between the ideologies of those providing judgements, and those allegedly breaking the rules. Our data suggest that judgements of those flouting social distancing guidance are influenced by ideology in a symmetrical way. That is, both liberals and conservatives condemn outgroup flouting more than ingroup flouting. We discuss this finding in the context of theoretical work into ideological symmetries, and the implications of growing ideological polarization in contemporary Western democracies.

“…Future research could examine whether pedagogical tools which enhance perspectivetaking could be developed that use a local lens to help business students bridge a profit maximization single stakeholder-oriented "benevolence" viewpoint towards a broader "universalist" multistakeholder approach. Case methodology is a particularly intriguing option, and it may also be effective in building empathy in business students, as well as embedding this tool within training and development processes with current leaders and employees in organizations [45]. The consistent espousal of shared multistakeholder business values and effective behavioral modeling provided by those viewed as high status within a university setting, such as faculty, deans, or highly respected peers or alumni may also help to provide legitimacy to multistakeholder approaches for skeptical students.…”

Sustainability managers are key stakeholders in implementing and diffusing sustainability initiatives. However, there is a significant gap in the literature examining the impact of greenwashing on sustainability managers. This research examines the effects of greenwashing on sustainability managers’ job satisfaction, commitment, turnover intentions, and job performance from a social identity/person–organization (P–O) fit perspective. Our sample consists of practicing sustainability managers (n = 125) in high- (77%) or mid-level (23%) positions. Results indicate that perceived greenwashing negatively affects the attitudinal outcomes and job performance of sustainability managers. The results also indicate that for sustainability managers whose social responsibility identity is higher than that of their firm, greenwashing has a significant association with lower satisfaction and job performance, and higher intentions to leave. However, for managers whose social responsibility identity is lower than that of their firm, employer greenwashing had no effect on the sustainability managers’ attitudes, even though they recognized their own poor job performance. The cumulative effect may be a situation in which managers in the best position to enhance a firm’s Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) leave the firm, and vice-versa.

“…In this context, the study (Kim & Han, 2018;Cartabuke et al, 2017) suggests that empathy has an important role to play in an individual's emotional health. The ability to recognize what others feel and share in their emotional state helps to interact in social situations.…”
