“…Consistent with the intergroup contact theory and realistic conflict theory, positive intergroup interdependence reduces prejudice and acts through affective factors, especially gratitude (Dovidio et al, 2003). The present findings are also consistent with the identified functions of gratitude (McCullough et al, 2001) by indicating a positive change in the relationship with the benefactor: gratitude decreased prejudice and increased warmth (Collange & Guegan, 2020). Moreover, our results reaffirm that gratitude motivated reciprocity (Ma et al, 2017): group-based gratitude is associated with facilitation behaviors and helping intentions (Studies 1 & 3).…”

“…Based on previous research on gratitude (e.g., Collange & Guegan, 2020), we expected a medium effect size (lowest effect size: d = 0.54). Using G*Power (Faul et al, 2009), the required total sample size to detect a medium size effect with a regression analysis that includes four conditions (0.80 power, alpha = 0.05), is 80.…”

“…We also controlled the effect of participants' political orientation and its potential moderating effect. Finally, we extended Study 2 by investigating the influence of immigrants' contributions on perceived warmth and helping intentions towards immigrants (Collange & Guegan, 2020).…”

“…Grateful individuals are more inclined to make internal attributions of positive behaviors to an outgroup target, even though these behaviors are counter-stereotypical (Jackson et al, 2001). Moreover, when the benefactor is an outgroup member, they can be credited for their exemplary action just as much as an ingroup member, leading ingroup members to experience gratitude, to perceive the benefactor as warmer and to reciprocate (Collange & Guegan, 2020). Those results suggest that being the beneficiary of outgroups' help may reflect benevolence and thus can elicit gratitude (Nadler, 2016).…”

The present paper investigates a positive, other-oriented moral emotion: group-based gratitude, in reaction to intergroup positive interdependence or outgroup contributions to ingroup's goals. Three studies support the notion that group-based gratitude plays a role in improving intergroup attitudes between natives and immigrants in the French context. In Study 1, positive intergroup interdependence was associated with group-based gratitude, which in turn was negatively associated with prejudicial attitudes and behavioral intentions. In the last two studies, highlighting historical outgroup contributions elicited group-based gratitude, which in turn reduced prejudice, increased perceived warmth and reciprocity (i.e., helping behavioral intentions), compared to control condition and positive condition. Links with indebtedness and common ingroup are discussed.

“…This is a study of the role of technological artefacts in the promotion of prosocial behavior [2]. Another example of such kind of research is the study of gratitude in virtual social interaction [3].The formation of social capital in an online social community [4] is also studied. In addition, an analysis of theoretical sources devoted to the study of virtual reality is provided, for example, meta-scientific analysis of articles out virtual reality [5].…”

Strategies for Self-Fulfillment of Ambitious Young People

et al. 2021

The article presents the results of a comparative analysis of self-fulfillment strategies in ambitious and unambitious young people. Ambition is understood by us as the desire of a person to become a significant person and to be recognized by other people for their achievements. Self- fulfillment is a person’s empowerment of himself, his personality, his value, this desire for high appreciation and self-esteem, and the behavior corresponding to this desire. Self- fulfillment can be implemented in one of three strategies – constructive, aggressive, or in the rejection of self- fulfillment. We assumed that there would be differences in the representation of self-fulfillment on strategies among ambitious and unambitious young people. The study involved 94 young people aged 18-22 years. The majority of young people consider themselves ambitious or rather ambitious people (70.21%). Less than a third of young people consider themselves to be unambitious or rather unambitious people (29.79%). In ambitious young people, two strategies of self- fulfillment were identified – constructive self-affirmation (60.60%) and rejection of self-affirmation (39.39%). Three strategies were identified among ambitious young people – refusal of self- fulfillment (42.86%), constructive self- fulfillment (42.86%) and aggressive self- fulfillment (14.28%). There were no statistically significant differences in the representation of constructive self- fulfillment and rejection of self- fulfillment in ambitious and unambitious young people. The only difference is that aggressive self- fulfillment is presented unambitious in unholy young people and is not present in ambitious young people.
