  • If it weren‘t for my hobby, I'd have a life

    Dair L Gillespie, Ann Leffler et al.ARTICLELeisure Studies2002Citada por: 42Referências: 46

    In the social sciences, work, family and religion - but not leisure - are commonly thought to shape the meanings people give their lives. But increasingly leisure research reports that under modernism, leisure practice and cultural consumption are at least as essential. What happens when leisure and 'real world' institutions pose different, even conflicting expectations? We focus on 'serious leisure' as elaborated through Tomlinson's 'culture of …

  • Safe in Unsafe Places

    Ann Leffler, Elinor Lerner et al.ARTICLESociety and Animals1996Citada por: 4Referências: 5

    Leisure is often distingtrished frorn and considered subsidiary to some other world, the "real" world. This paper explores how participation in passionate avocations _ leisure pursuits both generating and requiring heavy personal identity investments_ affects the public interface between the "real " world and the alternate world of the passionate avocation. We use the world of dog sport enthusiasts to problematize polar conceptualizations of cert…

  • Contact, Support, and Friction

    Open AccessAnn Leffler, Richard S Krannich et al.ARTICLESociological Perspectives1986Citada por: 6Referências: 5

    The networks literature has been bedeviled by an assumption that networks convey supportiveness to the exclusion of conflict. In this article, we discuss a method for distinguishing conflict, support, and simple contact network linkages in surveys. We then describe the results of applying this procedure to a random sample of households in several rural areas. We find that conflict does permeate personal relations. We also find that ego's and alte…

  • Theories of Nonverbal Behavior

    Dair L Gillespie, Ann LefflerARTICLESociological Theory1983

    Two central shortcomings are generally acknowledged concerning the literature on nonverbal behavior: the field lacks systematic theory, and it is a morass of conceptual and methodological problems. (See, for example, Birdwhistell, 1970; Duncan and Fiske, 1977; Edney, 1974; Evans and Howard, 1973; Harper, Wiens, and Matarazzo, 1978; Hayduk, 1978; Henley, 1973a, 1977; Kendon, 1975; Weiner and others, 1972.) The area is relatively young, spans a num…

  • The Effects of Status Differentiation on Nonverbal Behavior

    Ann Leffler, Dair L Gillespie et al.ARTICLESocial Psychology Quarterly1982Citada por: 20

    An experiment was conducted to investigate relationships between status and nonverbal behavior. Subjects were randomly assigned to a high status position (teacher) or a low status position (student). Status was crossed with gender to produce four treatment conditions: males teaching males, males teaching females, females teaching males, and females teaching females. Statuses were then reversed on a second trial: former students became teachers an…

  • Interpersonal Communication

    Ann LefflerREVIEWContemporary Sociology A Journal…1982

    This is a book which examines the social exchange theories of relations between people. These theories tend to view communication as an exchange or extraction of benefit undertaken out of self interest. The book attempts to answer three questions: What are these theories and how do their assumptions differ? How do they view a variety of interpersonal communication phenomena? And, what are their strengths and weaknesses? 'This highly readable book…
