TL;DR: Evidence from a selection of research topics relevant to pandemics is discussed, including work on navigating threats, social and cultural influences on behaviour, science communication, moral decision-making, leadership, and stress and coping.

TL;DR: An analysis of processes of psychological change among participants at an environmental protest finds evidence of a radicalized self concept among a number of crowd members, and indicates a link between radicalization, an asymmetry of categorical representations between protesters and the police, and the subsequent interaction premised on these divergent representations.

TL;DR: In this paper, an ethnographic study of two crowd events was carried out in order to develop a hypothesis about the experience of empowerment in collective action, which suggests that empowerment as an outcome of collective action is a function of the extent to which one can be empowered.

TL;DR: In this paper, an in-depth thematic analysis is presented of 32 interviews, which examined commonsense definitions of impulsive and planned buying, characteristics of typical impulse buy episodes, motivations for impulsive buying, issues of self-image and self-presentation, and regret.

TL;DR: In this paper, the issue of psychological empowerment in crowd events has important implications for both theory and practice, and the authors suggest how psychological empowerment and social change are connected through crowd action.
