Abstract:

Social groups without formally designated leaders spontaneously form status-based hierarchies in order to facilitate efficient and effective progress toward a common goal. The prevailing theoretical perspectives about who tends to attain status in these groups suggest that status allocation should be context-dependent. That is, the person who is given the most status should have qualities that help the group achieve its goal, and, because goals vary across groups, the characteristics that predict status should also vary. However, most research to date has focused only on the individual differe

Abstract:

This study examined the relationship between social-cognitive ability and social status in children with and without learning disabilities. Social cognitive mapping was used to determine children?s centrality in the social network in their classroom and accuracy in reporting peer social networks. It was predicted that social cognition, as assessed through the accuracy measure, would mediate differences in social status, as assessed through social network centrality. Although children with learning disabilities had lower social network centrality, they did not differ from children without learn

Abstract:

Mentoring is an important means of developing talent. Typically, mentoring involves two individuals – a mentor, who provides career development and psychosocial support to a less experienced counterpart (the protege). Because mentoring is related to several desired outcomes such as career advancement, and job satisfaction, it is important to understand which individual characteristics are important to obtaining or providing effective mentoring. It is also necessary to examine potential but unconfirmed outcomes of mentoring such as social network status. This study examined the relationship

Abstract:

This research investigated how social status impacts economic behavior. First experiment inspired by Range-Frequency Theory tests whether the position between top and bottom members of a comparison group affects social risk-attitudes. The study found no such impact. Second experiment examined the role of internal status hierarchy within small groups during collective risky decisions. Hierarchy does not lead to faster collective decisions as we hypothesise. On the contrary, low-status males resist more during collective decisions. Third experiment investigated the impact of two-dimensional soci

Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with social stratification of psychosocial factors and social position measurement in population samples collected in mid-Sweden 2000-2006. Traditional resource-based measures of social position (occupation, education) and so far less explored prestige-based measures (subjective status, status incongruence) are tested with respect to their associations with psychosocial factors, emotions, and selfrated health. Three papers in this thesis are based on data from the Life Conditions, Stress, and Health (LSH) study, using a randomly selected population sample. Data for the

Abstract:

This thesis examines the semantics and pragmatics of nouns that denote gender and social status in Chaucer’s literature e.g. ‘knyght’, ‘lady’, ‘leche’, ‘wyf’. It argues that a comparative analysis of these words across Chaucer’s corpus may challenge the traditional perceptions of Chaucer’s characters and their social roles, and clarify the supposed ambiguity assigned to these characters in modern criticism. Previous literary analyses of the language have been open to the charge of being unsystematic in their choice of the lexis examined. This thesis addresses this issue by taking a corpus-base

Data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (Add Health) had 609 adopted and 11, 940 non-adopted adolescents. I used OLS regression models to help explain why adopted adolescents have significantly lower grade point averages (GPA) than non-adopted adolescents. Potential mediators were family social capital, closeness to family, mother and father, mothers' and fathers' involvement in their children's education, self-esteem, academic expectations, and in-school beha

Abstract:

This research is based on a study of the relationships and interactional processes which construct and maintain ‘popularity’ in secondary school. The study adopts an ethnographic approach, including group discussions, observations, and visual methods, in a secondary school in central England. The core argument is that ‘popularity’ is socially constructed within relationships, and this thesis develops a notion of ‘relational popularity’. In doing so, this study addresses three questions. Firstly, given the postmodern abandonment of the fixed self and critiques of the individualist focus of rese

Uppsatsen syftar till att analysera påverkan av social klass och status i F. Scott Fitzgeralds roman The Great Gatsby med Max Webers teori om klass och status som utgångspunkt. Detta sker genom analys av karaktärernas relationer och beteende ur ett perspektiv där klass och status är centralt. Resultatet visar hur klass och status påverkar karaktärernas beslut, relationer och liv. Det leder till ett oundvikligt slut för Jay Gatsbys och Daisy Buchanans kärleksaffär samtidigt som konsekvenserna av karaktärernas handlingar påverkas av deras klasstillhörighet.

Psychology<br>Ph.D.<br>Status is a salient social cue, to the extent that it shapes our attention, judgment, and memory for other people, and it guides our social interactions. While prior work has addressed the traits associated with status, as well as its effects on cognition and behavior, research on the neural mechanisms of status perception is still relatively sparse and predominantly focused on neural activity during explicit status judgments. Further, there is no research looking at the involvement of person-processing networks in status perception, or how we embed status information in
