“…Inequitable learning environments, however, compromise well-being and are, as such, a violation of children’s human rights (Karras-Jean Gilles, in press). The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC)—ratified by all U.N. member nations except for the U.S.— articulates principles of nurturance and self-determination rights representing the advancement of children’s dignity and well-being 2 (Ruck et al, 2016).…”

“…PYD outcomes represent crucial socioemotional domains that have been linked to improved psychological well-being (Lerner et al, 2005). Marginalizing experiences facing today’s I–O youth, such as discrimination, xenophobia, and social exclusion, however, are toxic to their well-being (Gándara & Ee, 2018; Karras-Jean Gilles, in press). In contrast, involvement in yPAR provides the opportunity to nurture I–O youth’s positive development, which in turn positions them to recognize their ability to resist injustices facing themselves and their community (Fine, 2018; Watts & Flanagan, 2007).…”

The report of the American Psychological Association (APA) Task Force on Human Rights proposes a definition of human rights in relation to psychology; reviews the relationship between human rights and the concepts that have historically guided APA (e.g., human welfare, public interest, and social justice); proposes an analytical Five Connections framework that defines the connections between psychology and human rights and uses that framework to review APA's recent and ongoing human rights activities; and makes recommendations for organizational mechanisms that can ensure APA's ongoing and visible commitment to human rights.

Controlling the pandemic has necessitated governments across the world to implement behavior change agenda, through new policies, laws, and public communication strategies. The concept of "psychological governance" has therefore been crucial to curtailing the pandemic. Psychological governance is the application of insights from behavioral and psychological sciences to public policy for the purpose of influencing behavior at the individual, group, and population levels. Similarly, a macropsychology perspective aims to understand and shape behavior at the population level, through the application of psychology to factors that influence the settings and conditions of our lives, such as policies, institutions, systems, and structures. Psychological governance and a macropsychology perspective are key to effectively supporting pandemic preparedness, coping, and recovery at the population level. In this paper, the role of psychological governance in responding to COVID-19 is considered. This paper also examines the role of several macropsychological factors in the pandemic, including heroism, trust in government, culture, and equitable access and human rights. Public Significance StatementCOVID-19 is spread mainly through human behavior. The scale of COVID-19 renders it a population health challenge, which requires a response that is coordinated by government, using insights from behavioral science. Psychological science is uniquely positioned to provide insight into behavior change to control the spread of the virus and to support an equitable response to the pandemic. To do so, however, psychology will need to focus beyond the individual level, to policies, institutions, and systems at the population level.
