Measuring collective behavior: an ecological approach

Deborah M. Gordon

Summary: Collective behavior is prevalent in various systems, regulated by interactions among individuals and resulting in observable outcomes. The processes by which interactions produce outcomes are diverse, sometimes leading to similar forms of behavior that originate from different sources. An ecological perspective can provide insights into the dynamics and mechanisms of collective behavior.

Climate change research and the search for solutions: rethinking interdisciplinarity

E. Lisa F. Schipper et al.

Summary: Growing political pressure to address climate change is driving calls for interdisciplinary approaches that can offer deeper insights. However, many current approaches fail to effectively merge different disciplines, leading to reductionist and context-deprived analysis. To improve climate solutions, we need to rethink interdisciplinarity by accepting diverse narratives, embracing multiple perspectives, and integrating appropriate disciplines to understand human systems better.

We need climate change mitigation and climate change mitigation needs the 'We': a state-of-the-art review of social identity effects motivating climate change action

Torsten Masson et al.

Summary: This review article aims to explore how human appraisals and responses to climate change are influenced by social identities. It highlights the role of social identification, ingroup norms, and group-based emotions in driving collective climate action. The article suggests that very inclusive social identities, like global identification, may offer a unique opportunity to promote people's engagement in climate action.

Recent developments in the social identity approach to the psychology of climate change

Caroline M. L. Mackay et al.

Summary: The social psychology of climate change literature has applied social identity theory and self-categorization theory to explore how collective identities influence responses to climate change. Research shows that high status groups are less concerned about addressing climate change compared to lower status groups, but both are more likely to work towards pro-environmental social change when perceiving current social systems perpetuating climate change as illegitimate.
