Solving for the X: Aspirations and Expectations of College Students
The best teacher: Mediating effects of experience with employed women on men managers' responses to subordinates' mistakes
Comment on Grant and Ward, “Gender and Publishing in Sociology”
By your attributions you shall be known: Consequences of attributional accounts for professional and gender identities
Gender, Work, and Stress: The Potential Impact of Role-Identity Salience And Commitment
In a period when most women and men combine work and family roles, the relationship between these roles and stress is of particular importance. Using an identity theory perspective, this study focuses primarily on gender differences in the sources and levels of stress associated with these roles. An identity-based perspective provides a more parsimonious way to address this issue than the frequently employed gender specific models. Based on diffe…

What Price Success? Evaluations of Male and Female Managers
How do potential managerial recruits evaluate the probable job and interpersonal success of managerial job applicants who vary their interaction style? Are the relationships between interaction style and success the same for men and women managers? Further, does an equivalent interaction style predict similar managerial and interpersonal success for women and men? To address these questions, we varied the interaction style and gender of fictive a…

Interruptions Among Equals: Power Plays That Fail
In a corporate context, would interrupting affect the perceived power, identity traits, job performance, and interpersonal relationships of equally situated male and female speakers? The gender of both the interrupter and the interrupted speaker was varied in hypothetical transcripts of conversations between two corporate vice-presidents. There were no significant effects of interrupting or being interrupted on perceptions of the relative power o…
Parents, Peers, Perceived Pressure, and Adolescent Self-Concept: Is A Daughter A Daughter all of her Life
Data collected in 1981 from 316 high-SES junior and senior high students suggest support for traditional perspectives regarding sex-differentiated self-esteem. While a significant proportion of the variance in self-esteem level is predicted by perceived approval and support from family for both girls and boys in junior high school, high school females and males drawn from the same community differ substantially. Cues of family approval continue t…

When Egotism is Normative: Self-Presentational Norms Guiding Attributions
We conducted a field experiment in an attempt to specify audience perceptions of norms governing attributions of success and failure in one natural achievement context. Our respondents were 170 male and female associate professors from Ph.D.-granting sociology departments in the U.S. To assess self-presentational norms, we asked respondents to rate the professional maturity of various explanations given by a hypothetical junior colleague for eith…
Changing the Subject: Psychology, Social Regulation, and Subjectivity
Changing the Subject is a classic critique of traditional psychology in which the foundations of critical and feminist psychology are laid down. Pioneering and foundational, it is still the groundbreaking text crucial to furthering the new psychology in both teaching and research. Now reissued with a new foreword describing the changes which have taken place over the last few years, Changing the Subject will continue to have a significant impact …
Scaling the Corporate Ladder: Sex Differences in Expectations for Performance, Power and Mobility

Gender Expectations: Slippery Rungs on the Corporate Ladder
Is legitimation by promotion to a high-status managerial position a key to removing sex-based differences in performance expectations? We argue that promotion within an organization is not sufficient; rather, performance expectations are affected by the cause attributed for appointment to a given position. If the legitimizing authority is believed to be constrained in the ability to appoint on the basis of competence, then the diffuse status char…
Becoming an Academic: Early vs. Later Professional Experiences
This paper investigates the relevance of both formal training and current career conditions for the professional activity of an academic. We focus on the socialization of a sample of Ph.D. sociologists submitting papers for publication. Using regression procedures, we relate productivity of the training faculty, current publication pressures, sex, and year of degree to publication-related activity. We find that current publication pressures is a …
Repairing a Spoiled Identity: An Application of Attribution Theory
This exploratory study applies attribution concepts in the investigation of self-presentational tactics. We contend that self-attributions following failure are used by an actor not only to restore self-esteem but to mitigate negative social consequences for the self. Data for this study derive from a role-playing experiment in which subjects were asked to explain a failing academic performance. Weiner's control dimension and Kelley's covariation…
Causal Attribution and Behavioral Response to Failure
This paper uses a survey of social science authors to address the link between causal attribution of a real achievement event and future behavior. The achievement event studied is the decision of a refereed journal not to publish a submitted paper. Using regression procedures designed to handle interaction effects, we relate author's attributions, sex, professional status variables, and past experience to immediate publication strategy following …

Why a Rejection? Causal Attribution of a Career Achievement Event
This paper investigates causal attribution of a real achievement event of high importance to the actor-the decision of a refereed professionaljournal on a paper submittedfor publication. We develop a scale of causal attribution on the dimension of general control, and test hypotheses concerning the effect of status and outcome on attributions. The effect of outcome is significant. As predicted, respondents accord more relative importance to contr…
Sex Differences in Attractiveness of Women as a Function of Sex Role Attributes and Age of Actor
Why Did You Learn in School Today? Teachers' Perceptions of Causality
Teachers' attributions of cause for a pupil's past performance are investigated under varying experimental conditions. The conditions varied are the race and sex of the child, and the quality of the past performance. As predicted, teachers' causal attributions for past academic performance differ depending upon the race of the child. Black pupils' performances are seen as more externally caused than are identical performances ascribed to white ch…

Speech style, gender stereotypes, and corporate success: What if women talk more like men
Police-Citizen Encounters: A Field Test of Exchange Theory
A field interrogation is viewed as a two way exchange between a police officer and a citizen. Amount of cooperation given by the citizen is considered a reward to the police officer. This cooperation is hypothesized to be dependent upon the value placed on the actions of the police. As predicted, citizens are more cooperative when a reason is provided for the interrogation. This is viewed as a reduction of costs for the citizen in the encounter. …

A Note On Correlated Errors in Repeated Measurements
This paper considers a test score model in which the true score and the measurement error are autocorrelated. After some preliminary remarks on corrections for attenuation, the paper focuses on the three-wave case (t = 1, 2, 3), demonstrating identifiability, showing an estimation algorithm, and providing a numerical illustration

Sex Roles in Games
This study investigates the reality of traditional sex role definitions in a game setting. Levels of verbal and nonverbal communication were varied as well as the sex of the partner. There was no difference between males and females in cooperative behavior when no verbal communication was allowed. With verbal communication allowed, there was no difference between males and females interacting in same sex pairs. However, the traditional patterns d…

Role and Interpersonal Style as Components of Social Interaction
Twenty pairs of students role-played a situation in which one friend discovered the other making harmful comments about him to a third party. When completed, the same scene was role-played again but with role assignments reversed. Interaction was analysed by means of ratings of altercasting patterns. Significant correlations between assigned role and dimensions of altercasting were found. It was also possible to identify significant components of…
