Anomie and Deviance
One of the simplest is to think of deviance as behavior in violation of a verbal norm of a particular social system. Consequently, it is simpler to think of deviance as occurring in one of two ways in a social system—the extent to which behaviors are missing that facilitate the achievement of the system goals and the degree to which behavior is present that disrupts or works against the system goals. The anomie-deviance hypothesis is about steady…
On Methodology and Strawmen
A Test of Luker's Theory of Contraceptive Risk-Taking
A4mong the dozen or so theories of contraceptive motivation to appear in the literature in recent years, none has had the widespread appeal of Kristin Luker's Taking Chances. 1 It is easy to understand the appeal of Luker's theory. The theory provides an intuitively plausible and politically acceptable explanation for contraceptive behavior. However, intuition and politics are not substitutes for empirical confirmation, and to date Luker's theory…
Sex and Dominance
In an explicit and simultaneous test of alternative sociobiological and sociocultural explanations for the emergence of differential sexual dominance in initially unstructured small groups, the sociobiological explanation is falsified. This paper thus suggests a strategy for rationally evaluating these emotionally charged issues, and discusses problems future studies should confront directly, [sex roles, sociology, methodology, biology and cultur…
Effects of Status Inconsistency
A dramatic change in the results of status inconsistency research in the past decade has brought the weight of evidence today against the status inconsistency hypothesis-at least on the societal level. A major explanation for this change lies with a changed methodology which now controls for original status ranking. The position of the status inconsistency hypothesis in sinall-groups research is much less clear. Small-groups researchers have foun…
The Effects of Sex and Size on Status Ranking
Minimum Resource or Balance in Coalition Formation
Exchange as Symbolic Interaction
Social Exchange and Power Compliance
The Dynamics of 'Corrective' Groups
Noting the limited understanding of group dynamics among health researchers using corrective groups, this paper proposes that a number of principles already established in the field of small groups might be used to facilitate the processes of conformity and social control in corrective groups. An exploratory experiment designed to test the eflects of several group characteristics was conducted with smoking cessation groups. The experiment, with s…
