Abstract

Inspired by the paradigm of mate selection motives in evolutionary psychology, this research seeks to determine the extent to which violent extremist thought patterns are a product of perceptions of attractiveness that persist in men as a response to intrasexual selection. The survey was conducted on 192 samples of the general population in Indonesia, on a male sample (n = 80), after controlling for demographic variables, including dark personality (dark triad), men's subjective perception that Indonesian women find violence attractive (PAOSV) predicts militant-extremist mindset. PAOSV was the only variable that predicted violent extremism mindset in men. Furthermore, we discovered a mechanism that we call “sexualization of violence” – namely the extent to which individuals perceive violence as sexy, manly, and cool (AV) as a process that arises from the perception of high levels of positive feedback from the opposite sex towards violence. Where in the sample of men in this study, the only variable that shaped the mindset of violent extremism was sexual motives. The discussion elaborate differences in perceptions of attraction to violence between men and women, differentiation and gaps in perceptions between men and women in assessing violence. This study has practical implications, namely discussing the importance of the role of women as active agents in the formation of a culture of nonviolence.

Abstract

Urban environments, with their dense networks, mobility, and exposure to diverse ideologies, create conditions that can strengthen group attachment but also heighten vulnerability to religious extremist recruitment. Understanding the psychological processes behind such commitment is therefore essential. Identity fusion, a deep sense of oneness with a group and its members, is a key mechanism underlying willingness to sacrifice for the group. This study investigates how fusion develops through fulfillment of the psychological need for authenticity, defined as the need to be one’s true self within the group. Two studies were conducted among Muslim participants in Indonesia. Study 1 (N = 315) found that authenticity satisfaction predicted both identity fusion and willingness to sacrifice, with fusion mediating this relationship. Study 2 (N = 199) showed that perceived self-verification, or being seen by others as one sees oneself, predicted fusion through authenticity, which in turn influenced willingness to sacrifice. These findings suggest that fusion may arise from the fulfillment of relational needs, particularly authenticity. Recognizing authenticity as a pathway to fusion highlights a psychological vulnerability exploited by extremist groups and suggests practical avenues for prevention, such as strengthening inclusive communities, promoting trust-building, and fostering spaces for authentic self-expression.

Abstract

Extremist violence continues to pose serious risks in urban areas, yet tools for understanding these radical mindsets on the general population remain underdeveloped. Research on the Militant Extremist Mindset (MEM) is fragmented, with no synthesis of findings, unclear factor structure across shifting subscales, and little evidence from contexts with a documented history of extremist activity like Indonesia. This study addresses these gaps through two studies. First, we conducted a systematic review of empirical studies and a meta-analysis of 11 studies (N total = 5293) to examine the correlates of MEM’s three components - nastiness (endorsement of violence), grudge (hostile outlook), and excuse (moral or religious justifications for violence). Results on correlates of MEM were grouped into six themes: group/context, personality, identity, subclinical traits, social attitudes, and values. Study 2 analyzed three datasets of Indonesian participants (N total = 516) to reexamine the factor structure for each version of MEM scale. One version showed the best fit and relatively consistent intercorrelations. Theoretically, we propose viewing MEM as part of a motivational dynamic rather than a static list of traits within a certain taxonomy. These findings provide evidence for further cross cultural comparison of MEM scale and assess longitudinal changes in societal militancy, particularly in urban settings. We also provide an adapted version of the scale and outline final refinements for future research and practice.
