Predicting first-time-in-college students’ degree completion outcomes
Unequals
This book presents current theory development and empirical research on how status and expectation processes structure interaction. Chapters describe the development and current state of knowledge on these processes, relations to other group processes such as social exchange and stigma processes, and applications to elementary education and business organizations. Recent research is summarized on how status differences—which are culturally create…

Social Influence
Social influence is defined as change in an individual's thoughts, feelings, attitudes, or behaviors that results from interaction with another individual or a group. Social influence is distinct from conformity, power, and authority. Conformity occurs when an individual expresses a particular opinion or behavior in order to fit in to a given situation or to meet the expectations of a given other, though he does not necessarily hold that opinion …
Developing an entitativity measure and distinguishing it from antecedents and outcomes within online and face-to-face groups
Entitativity, an individual’s recognition of a social unit as a group, is a fundamental group characteristic. However, past entitativity measures have not demonstrated their psychometric validity. We create and demonstrate initial psychometric validity for a new measure of entitativity as well as several of its antecedents. We demonstrate convergent and divergent validity of our entitativity measure (and the antecedents) in three studies of onlin…
Gender and career success
Despite women's advancements in the workplace, gender inequality persists. We classify and test two frameworks used to explain gender differences in career success: unequal attributes and unequal effects. The unequal attributes framework suggests that gender is related to other attributes, which result in unequal career outcomes for men and women (i.e., a mediated effect). The unequal effects framework suggests that even when men and women share …
Obesity and gender as status beliefs
Behavior Patterns, Performance Expectations, Gender, and Task Focus
Previous work by Webster and Rashotte (2010) experimentally tested a theory of behavior and performance expectations, and female and male participants acted quite differently in the experiment. Theories of status processes predict no differences in how women and men use status information. We replicated two conditions and added two more conditions to assess a plausible cause of gender effects here. New results do not show a gender difference. We …
Racial double standards and applicant selection
The Theories of Status Characteristics and Expectation States
The Neutralization and Denial of Sexual Violence in College Party Subcultures
Heavy drinking and sexual assault are prevalent among college students who attend parties hosted by fraternities and athletic teams, and accusations often produce victim blaming and disbelief. We provide a symbolic interactionist explanation of how subculturally held sentiments shape students' perceptions. We find that fraternity or athletic team party attendees (but not those who drink in other settings) are more likely than abstainers to hold s…
Expectations, Status Value, and Group Structure
We report a replication and extension of theory and experimental tests reported by Stuart J. Hysom. That earlier work added status value of rewards to established theories of status generalization processes. We extend that work to cases in which both the status positions of actors and the status value of their rewards function in status generalization. Overall experimental results show confirmation of the theory, but fine-grained analyses reveal …
Gender and perceptions of leadership effectiveness
Length of residence, age and patterns of medicinal plant knowledge and use among women in the urban Amazon
BACKGROUND: This paper explores patterns of women's medicinal plant knowledge and use in an urban area of the Brazilian Amazon. Specifically, this paper examines the relationship between a woman's age and her use and knowledge of medicinal plants. It also examines whether length of residence in three different areas of the Amazon is correlated with a woman's use and knowledge of medicinal plants. Two of the areas where respondents may have reside…
Status, Participation, and Influence in Task Groups
Status generalization theories describe how society's status advantages and disadvantages can structure group inequality and also can suggest ways to design interventions to overcome its undesirable effects. We address problems of interaction as affected by the status characteristic race, which often disadvantages black members of work teams. Following the lead of Goar and Sell, we devised mixed-race task groups of women aimed at equalizing influ…
