How individuals perceive the risk of COVID-19 influences their mental health and protective behaviors. Therefore, the development of an instrument to capture COVID-19-related worries and fears is ...relevant. This study aims to develop and validate the CoV-WoFe to measure COVID-19-related worries and fears.
An online questionnaire was completed by 593 participants during Christmas 2020 and by 328 participants during Summer 2021, from which 88 participants formed a longitudinal sample.
Analyses confirmed a robust adjustment for consistency over time and a gender-invariant bifactorial structure. Factor 1 represented worry about the health consequences of COVID-19 and Factor 2 represented the perceived physiological symptoms associated with fear of COVID-19. Construct validity was evidenced by: the expected relations between the CoV-WoFe and other theoretically related constructs; the serial mediating role of both dimensions in the relationship that security values establish with protective behaviors against COVID-19 and with anxiety; and the expected gender differences in the Cov-WoFe.
The CoV-WoFe represents a short, valid, reliable, gender-invariant tool that is easy to apply in both the health professional and research context to assessCOVID-19-related worries and fears, which are variables of relevance for spread of the virus and for mental health.

As a result of structured separation in everyday life, Israel’s Arab and Jewish youth rarely interact, which contributes to a deepening and mutual sense of distance, distrust, and racism. Teachers, ...as agents of social change, can lead educational processes to bridge the ideological distance between Arabs and Jews in Israel, and to create an environment of dialogue and acceptance. This study used a sample of 300 teachers (150 from the Jewish ethnic group and 150 from the Arab ethnic group) to explore their perceptions and attitudes. Findings revealed that, compared to their Jewish counterparts, Arab teachers perceive the state’s attitude toward them as more negative. We found that Arab teachers’ perception of citizen-state relations was higher than that of Jewish teachers; identity perception among Arab teachers was lower than Jewish teachers; and coexistence perception among Jewish teachers was higher than Arab teachers. These findings can be a base for intervention programs at national and local levels and encourage the adoption of multicultural strategies to integrate Israel’s Arab population as equal citizens through social and political motivations.
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.
Azken mendeetako zubererak -i bukaerarekiko aditz multzo berri bat garatu du. Jatorri erromantzeko akabi, ataki edo ezkapi bezalako formak ez dira, alta, -i multzoko euskal partizipio zaharrekin ...batera sailkatzekoak. Izan ere, multzo berriko aditzek kideak dituzte -tü klasean (akabatü, atakatü, ezkapatü), zeinekin forma zein funtzio banaketa osagarrian erabiliak baitira. Artikulu honek partizipio berrien multzoa aztertzen du Zuberoako euskara historikoan, XVI-XIX. mendera bitarteko corpus zabal batean oinarriturik. Lehenik, aditz berrien forma eta funtzioak deskribatuko dira (§ 2), haien agerpena sistematikoki bilduz (§ 3). Ikuspegi diakronikotik, -i-dun forma berrien eta -(a)tü beren kideen arteko lehia deskribatuko da (§ 4). Ondoren, forma berrien jatorriaren gaineko hipotesi bat formulatuko da, gaskoiarekiko ukipenari seinalatzen diona, eta zehazkiago bearnesaren aditz jokatuen mailegatzeari (§ 5). Azkenik, -i akabantza duten, baina oraino aditz izaera osoki berenganatu ez duten beste zenbait forma ikertuko dira (§ 6).
LABURPENA Mende luzetako ukipen azkarraren ondorioz, euskarak morfema sorta bat mailegatu die latinari eta inguruko erromantzeei. ‑o/‑a bukaeren araberako pareen mailegatzearekin barietate batzuek ...inflexiozko generoaren hastapenak garatu dituzten bezala, ‑sa atzizkiarekin ekialdeko euskara eratorpenezko genero bereizkuntzan abiatu da. Zuberoako euskara historikoaren corpusean funtsaturik, lan honen xedea da -sa-ren agerpen historikoa aztertzea eta iruzkintzea. Horrezaz landara, eta Euskaltzaindiak bide hori baztertu badu ere, egungo ekialdeko anitz euskaldunen artean ‑sa atzizkiak duen emankortasuna ilustratuko dugu. RESUMEN Como consecuencia de la prolongada situación de contacto lingüístico, el vascuence ha tomado préstamos morfológicos del latín y de las lenguas romances. Así como a partir del préstamo de pares acabados en -o y -a algunas variedades vascas han adquirido una incipiente distinción de género de tipo flexivo, con el sufijo -sa el euskara oriental se ha adentrado en una distinción de tipo derivacional. Basándonos en un corpus del suletino histórico, en este trabajo examinamos la atestiguación y el uso del morfema -sa. Además, mostraremos que para muchos hablantes de dialectos orientales el sufijo -sa mantiene su vigor como morfema productivo, pese a que la Real Academia de la Lengua Vasca lo haya desaconsejado. ABSTRACT Due to the long-term situation of intensive contact, Basque has borrowed a number of morphemes from Latin and Romance languages. Whilst certain varieties show an incipient inflectional distinction of gender as a result of the borrowing of lexical pairs ended in -o/-a, Eastern Basque has to a certain extent acquired a derivational gender distinction by means of the Romance-origin suffix -sa. Based on a corpus of historical Souletin, in this paper we analyse the occurrences of the morpheme -sa. Moreover, we will show that present-day Eastern Basque speakers continue to use -sa as a productive suffix, despite the fact that the Royal Academy of the Basque Language has advised against it.
El objetivo de la presente investigación es analizar diferentes procesos psicosociales en Educación Física. Se examinan variables sociodeomográficas -tales como la edad, sexo y práctica de actividad ...física fuera del horario escolar- en relación a variables psicosociales como las actitudes (hacia el docente y el área), estrategias motivacionales (tarea/ego) y clima motivacional percibido (tarea/ego). A través de diferentes análisis se ponen a prueba varias hipótesis en relación a las mismas. La muestra se compone de 422 adolescentes de diferentes cursos de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria, agrupados en 21 grupos-clase. Los resultados muestran que el alumnado más joven y los chicos (vs. chicas) presentan actitudes más positivas y una mayor motivación hacia la Educación Física. Los chicos presentan unas estrategias y un clima motivacional orientado al ego, en mayor medida que las chicas. En relación a la práctica de actividad física fuera del horario escolar, los que sí la practican son los que muestran una actitud más positiva hacia el área y el docente, así como unas estrategias y clima motivacional orientadas a la tarea. Asimismo, en relación con las actitudes que el alumnado desarrolla hacia la Educación Física y el docente, los datos muestran la importancia relativa de las estrategias motivacionales y clima motivacional orientado hacia la tarea. Finalmente, se discuten los resultados en el marco de investigaciones previas y se proponen implicaciones prácticas para la docencia y la intervención psicosocial.
Radicalization leading to violence is a complex social process that frequently targets young people. In this study, we examine the 17-A cell, which carried out terrorist attacks in the Spanish cities ...of Barcelona and Cambrils on August 17, 2017. We focus on the psychological manipulation techniques used to radicalized members of the cell.
Using deductive content analysis, we examined the judicial order of the National High Court related to "Operation Ramblas" and the police proceedings of Cuerpo de Mossos d'Esquadra (CME) associated with the Barcelona and Cambrils attacks. Our goal was to determine whether psychological manipulation was used on the cell members and, if so, how frequently.
Our results suggest that different psychological manipulation techniques were used on the 17-A cell members to facilitate their use of ideological violence. The most frequent strategies were cognitive control (control of attention, group identification, and denigration of critical thinking), environmental control (control of information), and emotional control (authoritarian leadership).
This study provides evidence that psychological manipulation techniques were used in the radicalization of 17-A cell members. The results are discussed in the context of previous research on the psychology of violent extremism and terrorism. We highlight the need for prevention and psychosocial interventions to steer young people away from violent extremism.

Violent radicalization and terrorism continue to pose social and security problems. Starting from the theoretical framework offered by the significance quest theory, the purpose of this research was ...to analyze the different roles that radical intentions play in the relationship between the loss of significance and violent disinhibition in Muslims and non-Muslims. For this reason, we carried out two studies: the first one with 133 Muslims and 126 non-Muslims, and the second with 98 Muslims and 167 non-Muslims. Specifically, we measured how perceived oppression influenced violent disinhibition through radical intentions. Secondly, we also measured the impact of identity and cultural intelligence in these relations. The main finding of the research was that there was an indirect effect of perceived oppression on violent disinhibition through radical intentions in the Muslim sample, whereas, in the non-Muslim sample, the effect of perceived oppression on violent disinhibition was not mediated by radical intentions. These results were replicated in both studies. Additionally, we found that identity and culture were factors that moderated the proposed relations. This work therefore shows that the conjunction of the loss of significance and radical intentions seems to strongly exacerbate the likelihood of a process of violent disinhibition for those who are considered to be in marginal contexts. Overall, different pathways and intervening factors are in the process of radicalizing Muslims and non-Muslims in Western societies.
