    L’interrogation des normes masculines lors de ruptures amoureuses chez les hommes à travers le concept de liminalité
    (Neuchâtel : Université de Neuchâtel, 2024-09-11)
    Crettenand, Romane
    ;
    Les ruptures amoureuses chez les hommes peuvent mettre à rude épreuve certaines normes de masculinité. En effet, si la vulnérabilité, la perte de contrôle ou encore le dévoi-lement et l’expression de ses sentiments peuvent être des ressources précieuses pour tra-verser le deuil de la rupture, celles-ci ne répondent pas forcément aux comportements genrés attendus de la part des hommes en cas de rupture amoureuse. À travers une ap-proche socioculturelle et développementale de la psychologie mais aussi les « masculini-ties studies » et les études genre, ce travail propose d’interroger comment les normes de masculinité peuvent être questionnées ou renégociées chez les hommes dans le cadre de ruptures amoureuses, à travers le concept de liminalité. Sept entretiens avec des hommes âgés de 19 à 27 ans en relations hétérosexuelles ont été menés pour cette re-cherche.

    The pleasure of thinking in human development
    (2024-03-27)
    Observing children and scientists clearly suggests that people may experience pleasure in thinking. Surprisingly, pleasure is rarely addressed in developmental psychology. The argument of the paper is that pleasure of thinking may play an important role in learning and development; it draws on secondary analysis of existing studies and theoretical work to ground this proposition. The paper first draws on classical observations of young children to highlight five modalities of pleasure in thinking: curiosity, functional pleasure, discovery, dialogical pleasure, and a meta-pleasure. It then examines the becoming of these pleasures during the school years, highlighting the conditions for these pleasures to develop. The paper then suggests that such pleasure can be pursued and cultivated during adulthood. Theoretical and empirical implications are finally highlighted.

    L’émergence du possible dans le cadre des transitions de genre : une étude exploratoire en psychologie socioculturelle
    (Neuchâtel : Université de Neuchâtel, 2024-02-21)
    Alzetta, James
    ;
    Dans une société oscillant entre invisibilité (Namaste, 2000) et oppression (Medico et al., 2020), comment les personnes trans parviennent-elles à se penser et s’imaginer dans un autre genre ? A travers une recherche exploratoire d’inspiration phénoménologique, et en se basant sur les travaux en psychologie socioculturelle développés autour de l’imagination et du possible (Zittoun & Gillespie, 2016 ; Glăveanu, 2021), j’examine la manière dont le possible émerge dans les parcours de transition de genre. A partir de données empiriques issues d’entretiens avec des personnes concernées, je propose un modèle composé de quatre processus centrés sur la notion de reconnaissance. Je soutiens qu’à travers ces différentes dimensions s’élabore une reconfiguration de l’impossible en possible, et peut aboutir finalement à des actions concrètes dans la vie des personnes concernées. Les apports de cette recherche permettent 1) de consolider les connaissances académiques concernant le rôle de l’imagination dans les trajectoires trans ; 2) de renforcer l’intervention clinique transaffirmative (Medico & Pullen-Sansfaçon, 2017) ; 3) de proposer des pistes d’exploration du genre pour les personnes concernées.

    Thematic engagements: Affects and learning in older age
    In this paper, we propose a sociocultural perspective to consider affects in older age. The psychology of learning throughout the whole life course, including in the life of older adults, suggest that affects play an important role. However, developmental psychology has paid little attention to affects in learning and development, and even less to these aspects in older age. We believe that it is important to examine affects in older age because of their centrality in the lifecourse; but how to account for them? We propose the notion of thematic engagement to highlight the role of affects in older persons' learning and development, and to designate transversal and pluri-thematic interests across activities and domains of knowledge, which enable us to show that some topics, domains or interests become more important than others for a given person across time. We base our claims on a longitudinal study of older people engaging in different activities at home, in their neighbourhood, as well as in a daycare centre for older people, and provide three dialogical exemplars. We finally highlight some theoretical and empirical implications of our proposition.

    What Is the Nexus between Migration and Mobility? A Framework to Understand the Interplay between Different Ideal Types of Human Movement
    Categorising certain forms of human movement as ‘migration’ and others as ‘mobility’ has far-reaching consequences. We introduce the migration–mobility nexus as a framework for other researchers to interrogate the relationship between these two categories of human movement and explain how they shape different social representations. Our framework articulates four ideal-typical interplays between categories of migration and categories of mobility: continuum (fluid mobilities transform into more stable forms of migration and vice versa), enablement (migration requires mobility, and mobility can trigger migration), hierarchy (migration and mobility are political categories that legitimise hierarchies of movement) and opposition (migration and mobility are pitted against each other). These interplays reveal the normative underpinnings of different categories, which we argue are too often implicit and unacknowledged.

    Psychology of Change
    (2024)
    Sarah Awad
    ;
    This interview is a slightly modified transcript from the second Psyche Talk, hosted at the Department of Communication and Psychology at Aalborg University, February 15, 2024. Psyche Talks are hosted as biannual events, where prominent psychological researchers are invited to discuss fundamental questions about the nature and subject matter of psychology through an interview-based format. The focus of this interview is on how people make sense of change on the personal, social and environmental level and the role of symbolic resources in making meaning of and transitioning through rupturing changes. In this interview, Professor of Sociocultural Psychology, Tania Zittoun, is interviewed by Associate Professor of Sociocultural Psychology, Sarah Awad.

    Designing landscapes of affordances for aging in place
    This paper aims to contribute theoretically, methodologically and empirically to research and interventions regarding aging in place. Theoretically the paper contributes by drawing on literature on landscapes of care and landscapes of affordances to suggest a multiscalar and more-than-human approach to ageing in place. Methodologically, we argue that studying ageing in place requires a participatory and translational methodology. Participatory methods are, on one hand, a pre-requisite for an understanding of how older adults live their daily lives, and particularly use a ‘landscape of affordances’ in their social and material environment. A translational process, on the other hand, is necessary to elaborate research results incrementally across the different stages that lead to interventions on the ground. Finally, empirically, we draw on results of a study based on go-along interviews, photographic observations, and biographic interviews. In its empirical part, our paper describes the difficulties and gains of the different aspects of this participatory and translational process. In summary, the paper both develops the conceptual underpinnings of ‘ageing in place’ and informs the methodologies of applied research in this domain.

    Développement des personnes «âgées» et transformation des espaces vécus
    La vie quotidienne des personnes âgées se déroule dans des lieux concrets, avec des objets et des propriétés matérielles spécifiques ainsi que des relations sociales particulières. Toutefois, cette sociomatérialité constitutive est plus qu’un décor ou que de simples outils pour l’activité ; nous suggérons ici qu’elle participe de la vie psychique et quotidienne de la personne. Adoptant une perspective de psychologie culturelle du cours de la vie et nous appuyant sur les travaux de Kurt Lewin et de René Kaës, nous proposons de considérer les fonctions de contenance et de transformation des espaces vécus dans le développement des personnes âgées. En nous basant sur une recherche en cours, nous examinerons des transformations de configurations sociomatérielles à trois échelles, et les occasions de remaniement psychique que cela suscite. Nous verrons d’abord comment la vie de quartier ou de village peut soutenir les espaces vécus des personnes ; nous considérerons ensuite la manière dont les personnes peuvent se sentir « chez soi » tout en déménageant, car l’espace vécu peut être réorganisé dans un champ donné ; nous discuterons enfin du rôle d’objets spécifiques dans ces dynamiques.

    Book reviews: A dialogical reviewing process
    (2024) ;
    Ivana Marková
    As part of a theoretical and friendly dialogue that we have developed over the years (Marková et al., 2020, 2022; Zittoun, 2017), we both realised that our newly published books appeared almost simultaneously at the same publisher (Marková, 2023; Zittoun, 2024). To pursue this dialogue, we proposed to review each other’s book, and we then had a dialogue on these two reviews. The present “dialogical review” has thus three parts: the first part presents some of the points emerging from our dialogue; the second part is the review of Ivana Marková’s The making of a dialogical theory. Social representations and communication (2023) by Tania Zittoun; and the third is the review of Tania Zittoun’s Pleasure of thinking (2024) by of Ivana Marková.
