abstract = {Violent radicalization and terrorism continue to pose social and security problems.
Starting from the theoretical framework offered by the significance quest theory, the
purpose of this research was to analyze the different roles that radical intentions play
in the relationship between the loss of significance and violent disinhibition in Muslims
and non-Muslims. For this reason, we carried out two studies: the first one with 133
Muslims and 126 non-Muslims, and the second with 98 Muslims and 167 non-Muslims.
Specifically, we measured how perceived oppression influenced violent disinhibition
through radical intentions. Secondly, we also measured the impact of identity and
cultural intelligence in these relations. The main finding of the research was that there
was an indirect effect of perceived oppression on violent disinhibition through radical
intentions in the Muslim sample, whereas, in the non-Muslim sample, the effect of
perceived oppression on violent disinhibition was not mediated by radical intentions.
These results were replicated in both studies. Additionally, we found that identity
and culture were factors that moderated the proposed relations. This work therefore
shows that the conjunction of the loss of significance and radical intentions seems to
strongly exacerbate the likelihood of a process of violent disinhibition for those who
are considered to be in marginal contexts. Overall, different pathways and intervening
factors are in the process of radicalizing Muslims and non-Muslims in Western societies.},
