From Pictures to Numbers: Vision Mapping and Sustainability Collaboration between Native American Community Members and Mainstream Scientists
Native communities, in managing their health, education, land, and community development, must constantly interact with mainstream government agencies, academic institutions, and other entities. Cultural worldviews influence such interactions, as do memories of the negative historical encounters Native communities have had with non-Native society. To help foster collaboration between mainstream scientists and Native people toward sustainability, …
Introduction to the special issue: Terrorism, disaster, and organizational science
Here, the editor introduces the special issue on organizations' preparation for and response to disaster and terrorism. The topic and meta‐constructs within it are defined. The papers included in the special issue are outlined. The methodological and conceptual variety and strengths of the new empirical papers are summarized, as are some major gaps in current knowledge and paradigms that became clear from the full set of submissions to the specia…
The organizational science of disaster/terrorism prevention and response: Theory‐building toward the future of the field
The organizational science of disaster and terrorism is underdeveloped. In an effort to help promote it and, based on a review of existing literature as well as lessons learned from the process of developing the special issue, two models and derived sample propositions for future research are offered. The models span multiple levels and use system, network, and identity theories to tie together key constructs. Existing conceptual views of, and re…
Identity, Cultural Values, and American Indians’ Perceptions of Science and Technology
Scientific and technological expertise are needed to address many of the problems and possibilities faced by American Indian communities and individuals. Indian cultures, traditional knowledge, and Indian individuals’ alternative perspectives and unique ideas could aid the advancement of science. Indian access to scientific skills and expertise is insufficient, however, and the potential for Indians to contribute to science is going largely unrea…
Individualism and Immune Function: Are Asthma and Allergies Partly a Function of an Overly Constricted Self
Relations of individualism/collectivism to asthma and allergies were examined in two studies. I proposed that a narrower psychological identity (individualism) might be associated with an overactive immune system. In Study 1, average individualism levels across 15 countries correlated significantly positively (.50) with national asthma rates. Pollution and crowding levels were unrelated to national asthma rates. In Study 2, higher levels of perso…
Social Psychology: American Indians 1, Science, and Technology
The status of technological and scientific skill attainment by American Indian individuals and the science- and technology-related issues faced by Indian communities and cultures are outlined. The potential for unique Indian contributions to science as well as the potential for scientific contributions to Indian well-being are described. Factors that have contributed to science/technology problems and impeded science/technology successes among In…
School Achievement and Dropout among Anglo and Indian Females and Males: A Comparative Examination
Tokalakiya wounspe yuha unyanpi kte. (“Into the future we must go with education.”)\n-From a poster by Michael Lee Willcuts for the Black Hills Special Services Cooperative\nRegardless of the specifics they might emphasize, commentators seem to agree that basic skills are the key to individual and community success. Basic skills, such as reading and mathematics, are the foundation for learning other skills and for effective functioning. Unfortuna…
Dispositional affectivity as a predictor of work attitudes and job performance
Previous research has shown that dispositional negative affect (NA) is associated with lower levels of job satisfaction. Little research has been conducted, however, on other organizational implications of negative affect or on the potential effects of dispositional positive affect (PA). The present studies examined the relationship of both positive and negative affectivity to organizational commitment, turnover intentions, global job satisfactio…
Identity-Related Influences on the Success of Minority Workers in Primarily Nonminority Organizations
In this article we review theoretical and empirical literature relating to the experiences and outcomes of minorities (ie., individuals of non-European descent) in work settings that are populated primarily by members of the majority (Le., individuals who are of European descent). We review literature on processes at the micro (Le., individual, interpersonal, and small group) and the macro (ie., organizational, societal, and cultural) levels that…
