Introduction
(1) Dissonance, emotional arousal and attitude or behavior change:
My current approach is to study the door-in-the-face technique in terms of dissonance. I am interested in the role of attitude, self-importance, and social norms.
(2) Determinants - Alterations - Prevention of use disorders:
I explore determinants (e.g., identity, social norms) associated with alcohol, tobacco and cannabis use disorders, the neuropsychological alterations of binge drinking and test new prevention strategies.

Context: Drunkorexia, a common behaviour in students, is characterized by excessive alcohol consumption associated with eating disorders, but has been little studied in French cohorts. The aim of this study was to characterize the prevalence of drunkorexia in a population of French students, to identify predictive factors and to examine the associa...
The present study aimed at exploring the combined effect of risk of eating disorders (ED), alcohol use, physical activity, and social and psychological traits in Food and Alcohol Disturbance (FAD) behaviors. Nine-hundred and seventy-six college students were included in the study. They were then divided into two groups based on the Compensatory Eat...
According to cognitive-dissonance theory, performing counterattitudinal behavior produces a state of dissonance that people are motivated to resolve, usually by changing their attitude to be in line with their behavior. One of the most popular experimental paradigms used to produce such attitude change is the induced-compliance paradigm. Despite it...
Background
The emergence of new problematic alcohol consumption practices among young people requires new dynamics in prevention strategies. In this context, the ADUC project (Alcohol and Drugs at the University of Caen) aims to develop a better understanding of alcohol consumption, and in particular the practice of binge drinking (BD) in students,...
This study investigates the validity of the Brief Wisconsin Inventory of Smoking Dependence Motives (B-WISDM) among French daily and non-daily university student smokers. Measurement models, measurement invariances, and concurrent and convergent validity with psychosocial and psychopathological variables were tested. Results (1) confirmed the B-WIS...
Purpose
Food and Alcohol Disturbance (FAD) is characterized by the combination of problematic alcohol use and eating disorder symptoms to offset caloric intake associated with alcohol drinking and/or to enhance intoxication. The Compensatory Eating and Behaviors in Response to Alcohol Consumption Scale (CEBRACS) is a proven tool for measuring FAD,...

Introduction: This study investigates the validity of the Brief Wisconsin Inventory of Smoking Dependence Motives (B-WISDM) among French daily and non-daily university student smokers, and its associations with psychological variables related to smoking, namely attitude, social norms, perceived behavioral control, identity, and psychopathological v...
People with disabilities remain discriminated against, especially those living with mental disabilities compared to those living with physical disabilities, which might be rooted in a dehumanization process. Because there is evidence pointing to a tendency to dehumanize people with mental disabilities, the aim of this research (N = 559) was to demo...
This study investigates the combination of several psychological factors related to tobacco smoking to identify smokers’ psychological profiles among French university students. A cluster analysis was performed on smoking motives, psychosocial variables, and the smoker identity (N = 909). Five profiles were identified and then compared regarding to...
This research aimed to test the moderating effect of people's initial position to blood donation on the actual acceptance to donate blood in a door-in-the-face situation. This position (attitude, self-importance, normative beliefs) was measured one month prior to the request (Study 1, N = 99) or immediately before (Study 2, N = 80). The results rev...
Introduction
Binge drinking (BD) and cannabis use are prevalent in European adolescents and students. BD has been shown to have a negative impact on neuropsychological functioning, but little is known about the additive effect when it is combined with cannabis consumption. We therefore investigated the neuropsychological profiles of students who en...
Introduction
Binge drinking (BD) is a public health concern, especially in young people. Multiple individual factors referring to different level of analyses - positional, inter-individual and intra-individual – are associated to BD. As they have mainly been explored separately, little is known about the psychological variables most associated with...
Le tabac est le premier produit psychoactif consommé quotidiennement par les jeunes (Guignard et al., 2015). De nombreux déterminants en rapport avec les aspects volitionnels (i.e., attitude, normes subjectives, contrôle comportemental perçu, Ajzen, 2011), identitaire (Shade et Mermelstein, 1996) et motivationnels (i.e., manipulation sensorielle (M...
Les recherches menées dans le champ de l’influence sociale et permettant d’amener les individus au changement sont classiques en psychologie sociale. Le changement de comportement peut être obtenu par le biais de différentes techniques, comme celle de la porte-au-nez. Son mode opératoire est assez simple : obtenir un refus à une première demande tr...
La technique de porte-au-nez (PAN) [1] vise à amener les personnes à refuser une demande au coût extrême afin de favoriser l’acceptation d’une demande qui l’est moins (requête cible). L’explication théorique de l’effet PAN, initialement avancée par ces chercheurs, se base sur l’idée des concessions réciproques selon laquelle le passage de la requêt...
La technique de la porte-au-nez (Cialdini et al., 1975) consiste à obtenir un refus à une première demande trop coûteuse (requête extrême) dans le but de faciliter l'acceptation d'une seconde demande moins coûteuse (requête cible). Selon l'explication classique basée sur le principe de réciprocité (Goulner, 1960), plus le coût de la première requêt...
