A game of chutes and ladders
Career aspirations shape career pathways and long‐term outcomes and contribute to gender inequality. We examine how the sudden disruption of structural conditions during the COVID‐19 pandemic differentially affected the career aspirations of working mothers and fathers. We bridge literatures on work–family conflict and gendered career aspirations to consider which job structures and family arrangements served as aspirational resources that suppor…
It's Certainly Fair for Me
We draw on 31 in-depth interviews with fathers in different-sex couples to examine how their masculine performances contributed to the gender gap in household labor during the COVID-19 pandemic. The structural conditions of the pandemic created more and more intensive labor for families with young children, and we argue these conditions provided fathers with an opportunity to perform hybrid masculinities (i.e., masculinities that incorporate elem…
The Covid-19 Pandemic and the Gender Gap in Newly Created Domains of Household Labor
In this study, we draw on interview data from 62 matched different-sex, dual-career spouses raising young children to examine the mechanisms behind the gender gap in household labor during the COVID-19 pandemic. We argue that the pandemic represents a unique case of social uncertainty and an opportunity to observe how structural conditions shape the gendered division of household labor. We find that under the rapid social transformation imposed b…
Which resources matter for what impacts? Resource mobilization and impacts of local SMOs in rural Lithuania, 2004-2006
Resource Mobilization Theory (RMT) posits that the key to social movement organizations’ (SMOs’) success is their ability to mobilize resources. Yet there has been little research verifying this claim. This study uses the case of post-Soviet rural Lithuania to test the link between human, social, material, and organizational resources of SMOs and three types of organizational impacts: issue awareness, local support, and media coverage. Using orig…
The Implications of Social Neuroscience for Expectation States Theories
We review recent findings from the social neuroscience literature that links status differentiation between individuals to neurological processes, and draw out the implications of those findings for expectation states theories, including its dominant theory of status‐organizing processes – Status Characteristics Theory. Our underlying assumption and implicit argument is that social neuroscience research is useful for both bolstering and corrobora…
