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 created and maintained—affect interaction, estimates of ability and social worth, and many other behaviors and impressions. Chapters describe the most recent research developing theory, empirical settings, and new techniques for testing theory, including vocal frequencies and brain wave activity, as well as relations to other theories. Theoretically grounded applications to school classrooms and business organizations show the practical utility of these theories of group processes
