The evolution of strongly-held group identities through agent-based cooperation

Scientific Reports, 2021
Identity fusion represents a strongly-held personal identity that significantly overlaps with that of a group, and is the current best explanation as to why individuals become empowered to act with extreme self-sacrifice for a group of non-kin.

Identity Fusion in U.S. Military Members [PDF]

Armed Forces & Society, 2017
Identity fusion, the visceral sense of interconnectedness between oneself and the members of a group, has been associated with military service anecdotally and examined among foreign military groups. However, no study to date has explored fusion and its relationship with functioning among U.S. military members.

Sensors for fruit firmness assessment: Comparision and fusion [PDF]

, 1996
Non-destructive measurement of fruit firmness is a difficult problem and many different sensors have been developed in order to achieve this task. Three different European laboratories were associated in collaborative experiments on peaches, to compare ...

The fusing power of natural disasters:An experimental study [PDF]

, 2018
In the first experimental test of the potential of natural disasters to produce identity fusion, we asked residents of Christchurch, New Zealand, to recall their experience of the city’s devastating 2011 earthquake.

Topological Defect Lines and Renormalization Group Flows in Two Dimensions [PDF]

, 2019
We consider topological defect lines (TDLs) in two-dimensional conformal field theories. Generalizing and encompassing both global symmetries and Verlinde lines, TDLs together with their attached defect operators provide models of fusion categories ...

Feeling understood fosters identity fusion.

Journal of Personality and Social Psychology
If the consequences of identity fusion are well established, its psychological antecedents are not. To address this shortcoming, eight studies tested the hypothesis that self-verification (receiving evaluations that confirm one's self-views) increases fusion (a synergistic union with a group, individual, or cause), which, in turn, increases behavioral ...

Human Identity Verification Using Multispectral Palmprint Fusion

Journal of Signal and Information Processing, 2012
This paper presents an intra-modal fusion environment to integrate multiple raw palm images at low level. Fusion of palmprint instances is performed by wavelet transform and decomposition. To capture the palm characteristics, the fused image is convolved with Gabor wavelet transform.

Exploring the Relationship Between Need for Closure, Religious Ideology, and Identity Fusion

Psikis: Jurnal Psikologi Islami
This study examines how the need for certainty drives individuals to form strong bonds with religious groups, a process known as identity fusion. We explore whether epistemic needs—motivations for clarity, assessed by the need for closure—encourage ...
