what is a collective autonomy threat?
People experience “collective autonomy restriction” when they believe other groups want to restrict their own group from freely expressing its social identity and determining its behavior
do only low status people feel autonomy threat?
no
what do autonomy threats motivate?
motivate you to try to keep your status as a group in the hierarchy
what did Frank use initially? did it work?
vignette - no (not believable enough)
what is the construct that Frank was trying to develop with his simulation?
“is my group free to create, define, and express their identity using this theoretical point?” (autonomy!)
what did people do in Frank’s study?
groups had to create “coat of arms” paradigm –> picked this to reflect parts of their identity
then, to express identity, used videotape avatars (supposed to reflect the coat of arms created)
what did Frank manipulate in his study?
high-power groups could change others avatars
what is the limitation of Frank’s study?
cant be as meaningful as real life identity
Frank’s working on a new study – what is it abt ? explain
what would happen if hierarchy reverses
what does Derek brown study?
how inequality is created and maintained between groups and within organizations
What is the google manifesto?
“diversity is harming us” (what Derek brown is investigating)
Derek Brown first study
2 groups: 1 gets an advantage, or its a win-win or its a lose-lose
takeaway: people in advantage group ignores what equality is trying to do (they want to preserve the advantage to their in-group)
individual differences aren’t predictive of feeling advantaged
Derek Brown second study
presented win-win/lose-lose equality policies jointly to try to get ppl to make more balanced judgements
didn’t change misperception that equality would harm advantaged group
What does Sa-Kiera study?
maintenance, formation, intersections of hierarchies
according to Sa-kiera, everyone who disagrees on SDO scales comprises two types of people? which ones?
people who are being conditioned to disagree and those who intrinsically believe there shouldn’t be hierarchies
Sa-Kiera’s research on SDO and empathy
- SDO linked to how you feel but not how you think other would feel (so ppl high in SDO can recognize emotions in others and don’t just lack ability)
- when ppl could pick what emotion to feel toward low status target, ppl high in SDO didn’t pick empathy
- SO lack of empathy and increased counter empathy toward outgroups seems to be motivated (its about lack of motivation not abilities)
according to chadly stern, how is stereotyping and SDO related?
diff motivations (ie SDO) could correspond to stereotyping in terms of trait attributes
high SDO and need for structure both motivate agreeing w stereotypes
Chadly Stern on miscomfort and false positives (categorization)
- bias to NOT include ppl in ingroup unless overwhelming evidence
- conservatives might have more neg rxn to categorizing a minority into their group
- liberals might be uncomfy for diff reasons (maybe bc they were wrong, maybe bc they wrongly categorized someone as lower status than they rly are)
Chadly Stern definition of conservativism
resistant to change (or support change that brings us backward in time)
Chadly stern definition of liberalism
