The Power War: Male Response to Power Loss Under Equality
As many authors have pointed out, the relationship between the sexes is based on power, males having greater power than females. The continuing demand by women for equality is actually a demand for equal power, and if these strivings are successful, they will mean a loss of power for men. The male response to this anticipated power loss is the focus of this analysis. First, the scope of male power is described. Second, the importance of power to …
The Justice Process: Deciding Upon Equity or Equality
While research has documented the existence of equity and equality as allocation norms, no research has examined the process by which these norms are achieved. Using data collected by Kahn, Nelson, and Gaeddert (1980: Study 2), group discussions of 24 triads, which had been videotaped, were analyzed. The choice of allocation norm appeared to be determined by who spoke first, who spoke the most, and what norm that person suggested. When equity was…
Reactions of profeminist and antifeminist men to an expert woman
Critique [of Ethical Problems in Evaluation Research]
Johnson’s paper contains four assumptions which deserve further attention, especially in the context of ethnic minorities. These four assumptions are both obvious and at the root of the ethical problems: 1) Minorities need services; 2) services are to be provided by the dominant group; 3) the providing of services must be evaluated for cost-effectiveness; and 4) the evaluators are more likely to come from the dominant group than the minority grou…
Sex of subject and sex composition of the group as determinants of reward allocations
Distance and Liking: When Moving Close Produces Increased Liking
Preferences for an equal or equitable allocator
Rewards, Costs, and Sex Differences in Helping Behavior
20 males and 20 females were given the opportunity to volunteer their time to help a graduate student in a research project entailing either high or low rewards and high or low costs. Rewards and costs significantly affected females' helping as predicted by exchange theory but had no effect on males' helping. Whether males or females are more helpful depended on the sex-characteristics of the task and can be understood in terms of differential pe…
Diffusion of responsibility and extreme behavior
Effects of intergroup orientation on group attitudes and proxemic behavior
Sex differences in a mixed-motive conflict situation
Ingratiation in a Free Social Situation
Returning a favor and retaliating harm: The effects of stated intentions and actual behavior
Reactions to generosity or stinginess from an intelligent or stupid work partner: A test of equity theory in a direct exchange relationship
Effects of Social Status and Attitude Similarity on Behavior in Dyads
This study attempted to (1) incorporate social status into Newcomb's theory of dyadic behavior, (2) replicate in the dyad the differences due to status found in larger groups, and (3) see if results due to actual differences in social status could be obtained when status differences were perceived rather than real. Social status and attitude similarity were varied in a 2 × 2 design with attraction, communication, attitude change, perceived attitu…
