AN EXPLORATION OF THE PERCEIVED COLLECTIVE CONTINUITY SCALE IN REFERENCE TO NATIONAL AND REGIONAL GROUPS: AN ISSUE OF HISTORY VERSUS CULTURE
Résumé
The Perceived Collective Continuity (PCC) scale was developed to measure the perceived pastpresent-future consistency of groups, but studies often omit to report its latent structure, and no valid French version currently exists. As such, we explored its latent structure in reference to a national group (French people) and a regional group (Camargue people), while also developing a valid French version of the scale. EFAs and CFAs supported the two-dimensional definition of PCC (''History'' and ``Culture'') for the national group but not the regional group, for which only one factor was extracted. Further research is necessary in order to specifically determine the structure of PCC in reference to regional groups. Results are discussed in relation to potential structural differences between national and regional groups' identities. The French version of the PCC scale can now be deployed in Francophone samples in reference to national groups.
