Se professionnaliser dans un dispositif de formation spécialisée
2013
Les nouvelles modalités de scolarisation des élèves handicapés interrogent les enseignants dans l’exercice de leur métier, en particulier ceux qui sont confrontés aux inscrits dans les troubles importants des fonctions cognitives. Les dispositifs de formation et d’accompagnement aident à identifier les compétences constitutives d’une nouvelle identité professionnelle enseignante et contribuent à initier et à enrichir ce processus de transformation identitaire. L’analyse des regards portés par les enseignants inscrits en formation spécialisée par alternance permet de mieux cerner les conditions requises afin que les leviers de transformation des postures et des pratiques professionnelles se …
Time Up for Phishing with Effective Anti-Phishing Research Strategies
2015
Public awareness is a significant factor in the battle against online identity theft (phishing). Advancing public readiness can be a strategic protection mechanism for citizens' vulnerability and privacy. Further, an effective research strategy against phishing is the combination of increased social awareness with software quality and social computing. The latter will decrease phishing victims and will improve information systems quality. First, the authors discuss recent research results on software quality criteria used for the design of anti-phishing technologies. Second, it is argued that the dynamics of social surroundings affect citizens' trust and can compromise social security. Thir…
The limits of subtractive politics: Agamben and Rousseau’s inheritance
2020
The article critically engages with Giorgio Agamben’s reading of Rousseau in order to explore the affinities between the two authors’ subtractive approach to political subjectivation. In The Kingdom and the Glory. Agamben argues that Rousseau’s Social Contract reproduces, in a secularized manner, the providential paradigm of government, whose origins Agamben finds in early Christianity. This paradigm establishes a fictitious articulation between transcendent sovereignty and immanent government, presenting particular acts of government as emanating from general divine laws. We shall demonstrate that Rousseau was neither unaware of the problematic character of this paradigm nor did he venture…
On the ideological consistency between right-wing authoritarianism and social domince orientation.
2007
Abstract The authors argue that cross-national variation in the association between right-wing authoritarianism (RWA) and social dominance orientation (SDO) depends upon the degree to which political systems are organized along a single explicitly ideologically articulated left–right dimension. In societies where the political system is ideologized along a single dimension, RWA and SDO should be strongly positively correlated, and the magnitude of this association should be moderated by political identification. This hypothesis was tested in Italy, a society where the political system is highly ideologized, using analyses of concurrent data from student (N = 148) and community samples (N = …
Percepciones del alumnado de Educación Secundaria (15-17 años) hacia la función social de la ciencia
2020
En esta investigación se estudian las percepciones del alumnado de Educación Secundaria (15-17 años), en función de su género y nivel educativos (educación obligatoria y postobligatoria), hacia tres aspectos relacionados con la función social de la ciencia. Los 158 participantes cumplimentaron un cuestionario validado internacionalmente, que nos ha permitido alcanzar datos diagnósticos respecto a estos factores que indica un mayor reconocimiento sobre la importancia del papel de la Ciencia en la sociedad, frente a los restantes, que decrecen en el siguiente orden: adopción de actitudes científicas e interés respecto a ella en el tiempo de ocio, respectivamente. Finalmente se aportan implica…
Perceived collective continuity: seeing groups as entities that move through time
2007
This paper presents two studies, conducted in two different countries, investigating perceptions of ingroups as enduring, temporally persistent entities, and introduces a new instrument measuring ‘perceived collective continuity’ (PCC). In Study 1 we show that perceptions of ingroup continuity are based on two main dimensions: perceived cultural continuity (perceived continuity of norms and traditions) and perceived historical continuity (perceived interconnection between different historical ages and events). This study also allows the construction of an internally consistent PCC scale including two subscales tapping on these two dimensions. Study 2 replicates findings from the first study…
Preference for Identification in the Field – Nudging Refugees’ Integration Effort
2019
Social identity greatly affects behavior. However, less is known about individual’s investment into identification, i.e. into belonging to a social group. We design a field experiment that allows us to make effort as an investment into a new group identity salient. The social identity in our treatment is refugee’s identification with the host society. We modified a mailing to 5600 refugees who use an online language-learning platform to learn the host countries’ language. These treatment emails make salient that improving the host country’s language ability increases the belonging to the host society. Our analysis reveals that the treatment has a significant positive effect on the effort ex…
Comparing social contact and group identification as predictors of mental health
2012
Current research on social integration and mental health operationalizes social integration as frequency of interactions and participation in social activities (i.e., social contact). This neglects the subjective dimension of social integration, namely group identification. We present two studies comparing the effect exerted by social contact and group identification on mental health (e.g., depression, stress) across two different groups (family; army unit), demonstrating that group identification predicts mental health better than social contact.
When Social Media Doesn’t Determine All: The Topics and Narratives of Latvian Political Parties on Facebook During the 2019 European Parliament Elect…
2020
Over the last decade, the implementation of campaigns by political parties and their candidates on social media platforms has become an integral part of political communication. Political communication studies have long indicated that elections are becoming personalized, with more focus on party leaders or individual candidates. But studies on communication by political parties to understand the identity of parties and their potential in communication with voters remain relevant. The aim of the paper is to analyse the visual election materials of the political parties from Latvia on the social network Facebook during the 2019 European Parliament (EP) election campaign. The research period i…
La construcción del proyecto migratorio y las razones de emigrar en la población de África subsahariana de habla francesa. Un estudio intercontinenta…
2012
Este estudio da cuenta de las razones de los ciudadanos de África subsahariana francófona para establecerse en Europa y particularmente en Francia mediante la creación de un marco comprensivo innovador que vincula tres ejes temáticos: la motivación, las migraciones y África y sus relaciones con Europa. 155 participantes en ambos continentes respondieron a un cuestionario sobre su proyecto migratorio real o posible. Los resultados plantean un plano general de acercamiento a los imaginarios y la realidad de los migrantes en el contexto francés, marcado por la reflexión sobre la identidad nacional, los controles migratorios, un clima político reticente a la migración y un tejido social caracte…
