This theoretical framework suggests that (educational) practices are affected by one's social background and, more precisely, by the cultural resources handed down in the family context. To examine the validity of this theoretical…

When the time interval between two peripheral stimuli is long enough, reaction times (RTs) to targets presented at previously stimulated locations are longer than RTs to targets presented at new locations. This effect is widely known as "Inhibition of Return" (IOR). The effect is usually explained as an inhibitory bias against…

Swann, William B., Jr.; Jetten, Jolanda; Gomez, Angel; Whitehouse, Harvey; Bastian, Brock – Psychological Review, 2012
Identity fusion is a relatively unexplored form of alignment with groups that entails a visceral feeling of oneness with the group.

These porous borders encourage people to channel their personal agency into group behavior, raising the…
