Erving Goffman
Tertius Dolens: The Student Experience of the University of Manitoba Faculty Association Strike
Le fondement théorique de notre étude sur l'expérience vécue par les étudiants d'une grève du corps professoral d'une université s'appuie principalement sur la formulation théorique de Blumer selon laquelle l'interaction entre des acteurs, dans un cadre industriel, peut être divisée en trois étapes: 1) interprétation de l'expérience; 2) établissement de nouvelles relations; et 3) direction du mouvement ou ajustement. Chaque étape entraîne un chan…
Disclaimer mannerisms of students: How to avoid being labelled as cheaters
Là où l'on trouve une règle, on trouve aussi des gens qui seront tentés de l'enfreindre. Or, on court toujours le risque de se faire qualifier de «déviant,» qu'on enfreint les règles ou non. Les examens d'université sont des événements hyper‐réglementés où règne une atmosphère chargée de soupçons dans laquelle des moniteurs sont à l'affǔt du moindre geste, tels des sentinelles prětes à surprendre le tricheur à l'oeuvre. Conscients des enjeux, les…
Anxiety and Affiliation (Or Isolation?): A Note on Teichman's Study

On the basis of the results she concluded that anxiety (resulting from a specific ego threat) leads to negative affiliation. A longitudinal part…

Modern Magic: The Case of Examinations
The suggestion that students at present day universities participate in magic at exam time may seem unusual. This study views “magic” as behavior directed toward achieving an outcome, involving many everyday and commonplace acts, but seeming to rely for success on some mystical element. Hundreds of personal accounts from students describing their exam-related behaviors provide the basis for a classification system of their “magical practices.” Th…

Aces and Bombers: The Post-Exam Impression Management Strategies of Students
In this study we attempted to develop a classification of the strategies students employ to manage self-impressions after grades have been awarded and examination papers returned. These encounters between students are of three types: first, when students who have scored a top grade in this exam (Aces) encounter other students who received a low or even failing grade (Bombers); second, when Aces encounter other Aces; and, third, when Bombers encou…
