Coping with global uncertainty
Following the global outbreak of COVID-19 in March 2020, individuals report psychological distress associated with the "new normal"-social distancing, financial hardships, and increased responsibilities while working from home. Given the interpersonal nature of stress and coping responses between romantic partners, based on the systemic transactional model this study posits that perceived partner dyadic coping may be an important moderator betwee…
Perceptions of Mixed-Race
The psychology of race is in its infancy, particularly in the United Kingdom and especially regarding mixed-race. Most use untimed explicit indexes and qualitative/self-report measures. Here, we used not only explicit responses (participants' choice of response categories) but also implicit data (participants' response times, RT). In a Stroop task, 92 Black, White, and mixed-race participants classified photographs of mixed-race persons. Photos w…

Impact of Experiences With Racism on African-Descent Persons' Susceptibility to Stereotype Threat Within the United Kingdom
The present study examines the impact of experiences with individual, institutional, cultural, and collective racism on susceptibility to stereotype among African-descent persons within the United Kingdom ( n = 103). Results of hierarchical multiple regression analysis indicated that (contrary to hypotheses) experiences with individual, institutional, and cultural racism were not significantly or marginally related to susceptibility to stereotype…

Cultural Values Among African-Descended Persons in the United Kingdom
In this study, conducted within the United Kingdom, the authors compared scores on five cultural values—namely, individualism, collectivism, familism, romanticism, and spiritualism—(a) between African-descended persons and European-descended persons and (b) between African-descended persons and Asian-descended persons. We predicted that African-descended persons would score higher than European-descended and Asian-descended persons on collectivis…
Cultural Value Orientations, Internalized Homophobia, and Accommodation in Romantic Relationships
In the present study, we examined the impact of cultural value orientations (i.e., the personally oriented value of individualism, and the socially oriented values of collectivism, familism, romanticism, and spiritualism) on accommodation (i.e., voice and loyalty, rather than exit and neglect, responses to partners' anger or criticism) in heterosexual and gay relationships; and we examined the impact of internalized homophobia (i.e., attitudes to…
On the Limits of Generalizability
In the present studies, we examined patterns of interpersonal resource exchange (E. B. Foa & U. G. Foa, 1980; U. G. Foa & E. B. Foa, 1974) among gay male and female couples. Study 1 was quantitative in nature, whereas Study 2 was qualitative in nature. In Study 1 (n's = 61 male couples and 54 female couples), we explicitly tested the hypotheses that partners in same-sex romantic relationships would exchange affection and respect positively and si…
Cultural Value Orientations and Accommodation among Heterosexual Relationships in Jamaica
In this study, we tested the following hypotheses concerning cultural value orientations as predictors of accommodation among heterosexual relationships in Jamaica: (a) Individuals' Group Orientation will be a significant positive predictor of Accommodation toward opposite-sex relationship partners, whereas (b) individuals' Self Orientation will not be significantly related to Accommodation toward opposite-sex relationship partners. A total of 28…
Patterns of Attachment and Responses to Accommodative Dilemmas among Interethnic/Interracial Couples
In the present study, partners from 103 heterosexual inter-ethnic/interracial couples (103 men and 103 women) completed categorical measures of attachment style and continuous measures of responses to accommodative dilemmas. Consistent with hypotheses, there was a significantly higher proportion of secure over insecure individuals among both sexes. Further, the difference between secure and insecure individuals’ accommodative tendencies was great…
Romanticism and Interpersonal Resource Exchange among African American-Anglo and Other Interracial Couples
The present study examines the extent to which romanticism (i.e., an orientation toward the welfare of one's romantic relationship dyad) is reflected in patterns of interpersonal resource exchange (i.e., the reciprocity of affection and respect as interpersonal commodities or resources) in a sample of 91 interracial couples. Results indicated that consistent with predictions, (a) men and women in interracial relationships as a whole exchanged aff…
Links between race/ethnicity and cultural values as mediated by racial/ethnic identity and moderated by gender
Two studies examined whether individualism (orientation toward one's own welfare), collectivism (orientation toward the welfare of one's larger community), and familism (orientation toward the welfare of one's immediate and extended family) are distinct cultural values predicted by race/ ethnicity. The 3 constructs proved to be separate dimensions, although collectivism and familism were positively correlated. In Study 1, persons of color scored …
"Not Everybody is "Different-From-Me
In this article, the authors critique the assumption that physical difference per se leads to intergroup conflict. Building on the social psychology of WE.B. Du Bois, it is contended that the universalist perspective of mainstream social psychology-which holds that the in-group/out-group bias of European Americans is replicated in African Americans and in other minority groups-reflects the mainstream, White-oriented thinking of North American soc…
Impact of Interpersonal Traits and Gender-Role Compliance on Interpersonal Resource Exchange among Dating and Engaged/Married Couples
The following hypotheses regarding interpersonal resource exchange among (a) dating couples ( n = 206 couples) and (b) engaged/married couples ( n = 103 couples) were tested: (1) levels of affectionate behavior are reciprocated (i.e. paths are bidirectional) among couples; (2) levels of respectful behavior are reciprocated among couples; (3) individuals' reported affectionate and respectful behaviors are correlated positively; (4) individuals' af…

Exchange of Respect-Denying Behaviors among Male-Female Friendships
The present study was designed to test the hypothesis that between-gender friendships are characterized primarily by behavioral exchanges involving respect but not affection (i.e. correlations between men's and women's behaviors would reach significance only for respect-related behavior). A total of 62 pairs of male-female pairs completed a 12-item version of the Role Behavior Test (Foa & Foa, 1974), designed to measure partners' frequency of aff…
Generic, Stereotypic, and Collectivistic Models of Interpersonal Resource Exchange among African American Couples
In this article, the author used resource exchange theory (Foa & Foa, 1974) as the basis for proposing a model of African American couples' reciprocity of affection and respect. Furthennore, using concepts derivedfrom scholarship on Afrocentrism (e.g., Asante, 1981; Baldwin, 1980; Burgest, 1980), the author places the core of the model within the context of collectivism as an overarching cultural value among African Americans. In addition, the au…
When All the World's a Stage
A time series analysis was used to investigate: (1) whether a significant increase in news coverage of South Africa occurred during the critical years of 1979–1985; (2) whether the geographic origin and/or sociopolitical impact of events, rather than deaths per se, caused the increase; and (3) the manner in which the increase occurred. Results indicated that two symbolic events (i.e., a series of riots in twenty-one South African townships, inter…

On the Desirability of Own-Group Preference
This article reviews and critiques the ethnic preference research that views minorities'own-group preference behavior as indicative of self-esteem and identity achievement. The assumption that own-group preference is ideal, normative, or healthy is called into question and an alternative conceptualization is advanced. It is argued that with age and maturity individuals should find themselves less prone to accept or reject ethnically salient stimu…
