“…Communion and agency was assessed using Bocian et al (2018) adaptation of Abele et al (2016) scale that measures the fundamental dimensions of communion and agency using two-subscales for each dimension. The morality and warmth subscales are seen as measures of communion (referred to as warmth in SCM; Fiske, 2018 ); while the competence and assertiveness subscales measure agency (what Fiske refers to as competence in SCM; Fiske, 2018 ).…”

Unemployed benefit recipients are stigmatized and generally perceived negatively in terms of their personality characteristics and employability. The COVID19 economic shock led to rapid public policy responses across the globe to lessen the impact of mass unemployment, potentially shifting community perceptions of individuals who are out of work and rely on government income support. We used a repeated crosssections design to study change in stigma tied to unemployment and benefit receipt in a pre-existing pre-COVID19 sample (n = 260) and a sample collected during COVID19 pandemic (n = 670) by using a vignette-based experiment. Participants rated attributes of characters who were described as being employed, working poor, unemployed or receiving unemployment benefits. The results show that compared to employed characters, unemployed characters were rated substantially less favorably at both time points on their employability and personality traits. The difference in perceptions of the employed and unemployed was, however, attenuated during COVID19 with benefit recipients perceived as more employable and more Conscientious than pre-pandemic. These results add to knowledge about the determinants of welfare stigma highlighting the impact of the global economic and health crisis on perception of others.

“…Schools that have received the adiwiyata predicate are considered to have succeeded in forming the character of student care for the environment (al-Anwari, 2016). Attitudes are summary evaluations of objects, formed online or stored in long-term memory, which can influence current affective states and information processing (Bocian, Baryla, Kulesza, Schnall, & Wojciszke, 2018).…”

Destructive behavior towards nature adversely affects environmental damage. The root of this crisis lies in the structure of the value of human life in interacting with nature. This research aims at studying a philosophical foundation, model, aspect of environmental cultured education, and it’s implication on the student’s competencies in three schools. It employes phenomenology. Data were gained from deep-interview, observation, and document analysis. The information is determined with a purposive sampling technique. While data were analyzed descriptive-exploratively, involving data reduction, data display, and conclusions. This research finds that the vision and mission of the school become the main foundation in growing awareness of environmental cultured education. The model of environmental cultured education is developed integratively through all subjects. The aspect of education was formulated in the Adiwiyata programs dan Educotourism with participatory and sustainable principles. The implications for student competencies including demonstrating environmental cultured attitudes and behavior, the cognitive understanding of environmental education, and developing in own students’ skills, creativity, and productivity.

“…In the next step of the survey, the participants were asked to assess the previously presented product on the widely used adjective scale of agency (10 items: efficient, confident, competent, never gives up, smart, leader type, effective, dominant, intelligent, copes well under pressure), and communion (10 items: trustworthy, caring, acts fairly, kind, just, cordial, considerate, empathic, reliable, warm) [117,118].…”

“…Another possible avenue to be investigated by future research is the incorporation of the trust component into the research model in order to verify our suggestion that trust is a factor that increases the acceptance of the communal AV compared to the agentic one. This direction is promising because communion is highly related with moral judgments and preferences [70,75,86,118].…”

Public acceptance of autonomous vehicles (AVs) is still questionable. Nevertheless, it can be influenced by proper communication strategy. Therefore, our research focuses on (1) the type of information concerning AVs that consumers seek and (2) how to communicate this technology in order to increase its acceptance. In the first study (N = 711) topic modeling showed that the most sought for information concern the communion and the agency of AVs. In the second, experimental study (N = 303) we measured the participants' fear and goal-orientation in relation to AVs. Then, after the manipulation of the AV advertisement (imbued with communal vs agentic content), technology acceptance components (perceived ease of use, perceived usefulness and behavioral intention) were verified. The comparative analysis of the structural model estimates showed that the both participants' fear and goal-orientation in relation to AVs were associated much more with the acceptance components of the communal AV rather than the agentic one. Therefore, people want to know both whether AVs are communal and agentic, but they are more prone to accept a communal AV than agentic one.
