Diego Dametto et al., « Charlemagne’s Legacy: A Consensus Analysis of Affective Meanings in French and German Culture », HAL SHS (Sciences de l’Homme et de la Société), ID : 10.1177/01902725231205855
We investigate between-and within-country consensus about affective meanings of social identities along the evaluation, potency, and activity dimensions from the affect control theory research tradition. Ratings for 387 (194 male and 193 female) identities were collected from two samples representative of the French (N = 700) and German (N = 700) populations for age, gender, and region. Guided by two preregistered hypotheses based on previous crosscultural research, our analysis points to considerable cultural consensus between French and Germans who seem to share a common ''Carolingian'' affective culture; yet some culture-specific patterns concerning the evaluation dimension and evaluation-potency interactions were found to be statistically significant. We interpret these results in terms of known cross-cultural features such as power distance and conceptions of power.
