Book The Social Psychology of Female Male Relations

Download or read book The Social Psychology of Female Male Relations written by Richard D. Ashmore and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Social Psychology of Female-Male Relations: A Critical Analysis of Central Concepts covers the thoughts, feelings, and behaviours of individuals in social interaction and explicitly considers women and men in relation to one another - as individuals, as representatives of social categories, and as significant social groups. Chapter One lays out the parameters of the social psychology of female-male relations. Chapter Two contains two major insights: that gender identity is a complex, multifaceted construct and that the structure and degree of differentiation of gender identity develop and change over the life course. Chapters Three and Four present a relatively general cognitive social-psychological framework for two important constructs, sex stereotypes and gender-related attitudes. Chapter Five offers a critique of analyses that explain the behavior of women and men in close, personal relationships in terms of sex differences in the individual dispositions of the participants. Chapter Six presents a strong and straightforward critique of the current usage of the term sex role to describe a global set of behavioral prescriptions that apply to all women and to all men. Chapter Seven presents a comprehensive review of research on gender-related patterns of behavior in task groups that cannot be found elsewhere. The concluding chapter summarizes points made in earlier chapters and offers a set of notes toward a theory of female-male relations. Social scientists (especially, psychologists, sociologists, and anthropologists) doing research on women, on men, or on women and men in relationships or in social interaction.

Book The Impact of Race  Gender  and Error Type on Leader Ratings

Download or read book The Impact of Race Gender and Error Type on Leader Ratings written by Kayla Weaver and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined the effect of error type, leader gender, and leader race on leadership ratings after an error occurred. A sample of 536 MTurk participants was used to test the hypothesized relationships. The results revealed that leader ratings are significantly influenced by the type of error (i.e., task, relationship, ethical) that a leader commits. Leader ratings did not vary significantly based on leader gender. Leader race, however, did significantly influence leader ratings, such that Black leaders were rated higher on leader liking and willingness to follow the leader than White leaders. On average, internal behavioral attributions were made to explain leader behavior regardless of the leader's race, gender, or type of error committed. Finally, internal attributions were significantly and negatively related to leadership ratings. These results are discussed in terms of both their theoretical and practical implications for the study of leader error.

Book Effect of Gender and Ethnicity on Perceptions of Prototypical Leadership

Download or read book Effect of Gender and Ethnicity on Perceptions of Prototypical Leadership written by Nicole LeAnn Cundiff and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perceptions of leadership behaviors have been found to be influenced by the prototypical leadership traits a leader exhibits and by a leader's gender. This study examined prototypical leadership traits with gender and ethnicity in order to find differences in perceptions of leadership that might exist due to gender role bias and prejudice. Using a 2 x 2 x 2 design, prototypical traits, gender, and ethnicity were varied in a scenario depicting a leader in a multi-national corporation. Participants were asked to rate the leader on promotability, prototypicality, A-prototypicality, effectiveness, typicality, and charisma. Responses from 200 European American college students were analyzed and results of the study indicated that leaders displaying prototypical leader traits had higher ratings on promotability, prototypicality, effectiveness, typicality, and charisma, than leaders rated high on A-prototypicality. No differences were found on the dependent variables, across scenarios where gender or ethnicity were manipulated indicating that gender role bias and prejudice in leadership perceptions were not significant in this sample.

Book What s in a Leader

Download or read book What s in a Leader written by Gina M. Lawton and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women often combat stereotypes portraying their inability to lead effectively within an organization. The current paper explores this intersection of gender, attractiveness, and leadership demeanor on followers' perceptions of leadership competence and likeability. Attractiveness is a physical reminder of a woman's femininity and could create conflict if a female leader adopted masculine leadership traits (Bosak & Sczesny, 2011; Rudman, Moss-Rascusin, Phelan, & Nauts, 2012). A series of hypotheses predict that attractive agentic female leaders will be rated more negatively than unattractive agentic female leaders, attractive communal leaders, or unattractive communal leaders. The study utilized a 2 (gender: male vs. female) x 2 (attractiveness: unattractive vs. attractive) x 2 (demeanor: agentic vs. communal) factorial design. The participants (N = 232) read vignettes that manipulated the leader's leadership style, gender, and attractiveness. After reading the scenario, participants rated the leader's likeability and competence. Findings indicate that leaders who engaged in an agentic leadership style were less liked than leaders who engaged in a communal leadership style, regardless of attractiveness or gender. Attractive agentic male leaders received higher likeability ratings than unattractive agentic males. Therefore, leadership style and attractiveness may play a role in subordinates' perceptions of successful leadership.

Book The Effect of Gender on the Evaluation of a Leader

Download or read book The Effect of Gender on the Evaluation of a Leader written by Suzanne Verhulp and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper tests the effect of gender on the evaluation of a leader. It is assumed in the literature that females are differently evaluated based on their gender. Different feminine and masculine leadership styles are included to test for differences. Not only the effect of the gender of the leader, but also the effect of the gender of the evaluator is included. Furthermore, some supposedly gender related personality characteristics are included the test their importance. A questionnaire is distributed to gather data. There are three versions of the questionnaire, with the only difference that the gender of the leader is manipulated. Different analyses are performed to test the effect of gender on the evaluation of a leader. The results of this study show that not only the gender of the leader influences the evaluation of a leader, but also the gender of the evaluator. Besides this, no clear indications for lower evaluations of female leaders are found.
