“…Social alienation—the feeling of detachment from social and cultural participation (19)—is another form of significance loss that has been discussed in many theories of radicalization [e.g., (20–23). The literature on social alienation suggests that it is a “sign of personal dissatisfaction with certain structural elements of society…related particularly to economic and political elements” [(24), p. 90].…”

The present research examines the social cognitive processes underlying ideologically-based violence through the lens of the 3N model of radicalization. To test this theory, we introduce two new psychometric instruments—a social alienation and a support for political violence scale—developed in collaboration with 13 subject matter experts on terrorism. Using these instruments, we test the theory's hypotheses in four different cultural settings. In Study 1, Canadians reporting high levels of social alienation (Need) expressed greater support for political violence (Narrative), which in turn positively predicted wanting to join a radical group (Network), controlling for other measures related to political violence. Study 2a and 2b replicated these findings in Pakistan and in Spain, respectively. Using an experimental manipulation of social alienation, Study 3 extended these findings with an American sample and demonstrated that moral justification is one of the psychological mechanisms linking social alienation to supporting political violence. Implications and future directions for the psychology of terrorism are discussed.

“…Several pathways might be responsible for this result. The SA concept encompasses a feeling of separation and isolation (Seeman, 1959), a sense of non-belongingness to whom we are normally expected to associate or love, and estrangement (Giffin, 1970). This means that an alienated individual lacks the inner sense of collectivism, thus does not integrate into the wider community.…”

Objective: Despite the development of various vaccines to combat Covid-19, adopting preventive behaviors are still the first line of struggle. There exist vast differences in the way people comply with the rules. Some are committed to restrictions laid down by the government, while others disrespect the rules. Therefore, understanding the underlying structures of behavioral management was the purpose of the present study. We aim to examine the contribution of moral standards, sense of social alienation, and institutional trust in predicting compliance with Covid-19 rules. Method: The study design is cross-sectional and data collection was done for two months through online social media. The sample of the study was obtained from 465 of the general population with an average age of 30.01 years (SD=7.04). Analysis of data was done by SPSS version 25. Results: correlation and regression analysis were done to obtain the predictive power of study variables. Findings show that social alienation, institutional trust, and moral standards explain 33% of the variance of compliance [R2 = 0.33, F (461) = 7.68, p = 0.001]. Conclusion: The results of the present study not only contribute to theory development but also provide implications to the governance of Covid-19. It seems that strengthening trust and moral standards along with expanding the sense of cohesion will help to improve compliance with health regulations imposed during Covid-19 and end this tedious period as soon as possible.

“…Marginalization is one of the characteristics of social alienation. This partly derives from the impression of having little control over one's own life, in other words, the feeling of powerlessness [4,13]. Consequently, we have endeavoured to alleviate social divide in the Saint-Roch District with a user interface by bringing together the district's different social classes around the same objective.…”

Québec City's Saint-Roch District (Canada) is going through an urban and social transformation period. Over the years, the various efforts aimed at revitalizing the district contributed to the creation of a significant divide between the different social classes. The solution we devised, Paléo, is a social impact outdoor interface aiming to bring together the people frequenting the district. By placing users in a collaborative situation toward a common goal, the search for warmth during the cold Québec winter, our system intends to stimulate the evolution of reciprocal perceptions, and thus, improve the quality of the experience in the district.
