S’aimer à l’heure du numérique : la relation conjugale à l’épreuve de l’hyperconnectivité
2014
L’introduction des nouveaux objets connectés (NOC) dans les foyers vient réinterroger la relation conjugale. Avec les objets nomades, le couple doit faire face à un individualisme connecté. Ils amplifient notamment la privatisation des territoires dans l’espace domestique semblant de ce fait affecter la conversation conjugale. À travers notre enquête, nous avons constaté que les technologies de l’information et de la communication (TIC) peuvent certes avoir un impact négatif sur la relation de couple, mais peuvent a contrario venir renforcer la relation en donnant entre autres une nouvelle place à l’écrit dans la communication conjugale. Des différences apparaissent toutefois selon les type…
El efecto moderador de la edad en la relación entre el valor percibido, las TIC del minorista y la lealtad del cliente
2010
AbstractInformation and communication technology (ICT) may represent a source of benefits for retailers. However, there is a debate in the literature on how ICT influences customer-supplier relationships. In addition, the evidence on the effect of age on consumer attitudes towards retail technological solutions is not conclusive. This paper proposes and tests a model to analyze the influence of retail ICT on consumer loyalty towards the retailer, as well as to assess the moderating role of consumer age on this relationship. As a result, customer assessment of retail ICT, together with perceived value, exerts a positive influence on consumer commitment and satisfaction, being the latter an a…

Understanding the sense of community and continuance intention in virtual communities: The role of commitment and type of community
2019
Virtual communities (VCs) have become essential in current organizations and society, and so their sustainability is a topic of interest for researchers and practitioners. We focus on the sense of virtual community (SoVC) and commitment as relevant antecedents in achieving the success and maintenance of different types of VCs (communities of interest, virtual learning communities, and virtual communities of practice). Specifically, this study examines a moderated mediation model in which the type of virtual community moderates the indirect effect of a SoVC on the intention to continue through the perceived commitment of the users of the VC. The sample consists of 299 members of Virtual comm…
L'apport de la communication engageante et des représentations sociales dans le cadre de la promotion de l'éco-mobilité
2011
The purpose of this thesis was to test the applicability of binding communication in the case of car use reduction. The first two studies (1 & 2) bring out the relationship between an individual and his mobility. Our results lead us to consider a system of double bind between the challenges of sustainable development and daily obligations. The individual recognizes the negative impact of car use on the environment but justifies his behavior by an important need for flexibility. Three studies have tested the effectiveness of procedures such as commitment (Study 3) and binding communication (studies 4 and 5). A procedure of binding communication has been particularly effective. It combined a …
Implementation of mindfulness-acceptance-commitment protocol for injured athletes : an action research study
2017
Mindfulness-Acceptance-Commitment (MAC) protocol has been implemented and studied for the purpose of performance enhancement with several positive results in the past 10 years. More recently, an increasing, but limited, number of MAC studies have also been done in the field of sport injury prevention and rehabilitation. Since MAC is a protocol with flexible implementation, sport psychology consultants, especially novice, can be confused by a wide range of its strategies. It is important to study implementation because it doesn’t provide only information about the effect but also detailed contents and mechanisms of an intervention, which will reduce variability and fidelity of it. The purpos…
