External threat and the definition of deviance
Research ( Lauderdale , 1976; Schachter , 1951) suggests that an external threat to a group can lead to the rejection of deviant members of the group and alteration of group communication patterns and solidarity.

We examined the effect of vari…

An open response format was regarded as least accurate in 1965 and as most accurate in 1975. It is suggested that this and related findings have implications for the choice of instruments in self-concept research, and observed temporal changes can be attribute…
