This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scale type was found to moderate the findings for peer ratings, but not supervisor ratings. The difference between men and women was larger on the objective scale than on the subjective scale. Further, a significant relationship was found between supervisor ratings of citizenship performance and salary for men, but not for women. Implications are discussed for men and women in the workplace in regards to women receiving higher citizenship performance than men and women not being rewarded equally with a higher salary for performance citizenship performance as were men.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although many strides have been made with regard to gender differences over the past few decades, there are still discrepancies in treatment and expectations of women and men in the workplace that warrant further research. One such difference is evident in perceptions of organizational citizenship behaviors, or OCBs, which are organizationally relevant actions taken by employees that go above and beyond their formal job requirements. Following the logic of gender role theory, several studies have examined how cultural expectations regarding gender roles affect the way individuals' performance of different various OCBs are evaluated and rewarded. One potential connection that has not received much attention in the literature thus far focuses not on the employee performing OCBs, but the person who is using that information to form a performance rating of the employee. In light of mixed findings regarding the role for rater gender, this thesis hypothesized that the raters' gender personal identity, gender social identity, and modern sexist beliefs will affect their ratings of the overall performance of females and males exhibiting varying levels of helping behavior (a stereotypically feminine OCB) and voice (a stereotypically masculine OCB). Two models come to fruition here. In one, the stronger a rater's gender personal identity and/or modern sexist beliefs, the more likely she or he will be to make judgments with traditional gender norms in mind, thus providing lower ratings for women who perform stereotypically masculine OCBs. Alternatively, the stronger a rater's gender social identity and/or gender identity salience, the more likely she or he will be to make judgments with the ratee's position as part of their gender's in- or out-group in mind, thus providing lower ratings to ratees in the out-group. The hypothesized models were investigated in two studies using a sample of currently employed college students (Study 1: n=234, Study 2: n=175). The first was an experimental policy capturing study, in which participants read scenarios describing the behavior of hypothetical employees and rated their overall performance. In the second study, participants rated the OCBs and overall performance of one female and one male coworker. Both studies measured the gender personal identity, gender social identity, gender identity salience, and modern sexism of the performance rater. Hierarchical linear modeling was conducted to analyze the hypotheses. The results supported the hypotheses that OCBs would significantly affect overall performance ratings. Additionally and contrary to expectations, the results suggested that male targets are punished more than female targets when they are low in either voice behaviors or task performance. No support was found for the remaining hypothesized interactions. Although there were few significant findings in this thesis, there is still an abundance of research that suggests that OCBs are important because they affect decisions that influence career advancement. Considering the influence of these behaviors, it is vital to continue investigating how OCBs contribute to overall performance ratings in the workplace. Doing so may shed light on how performance ratings are formed, as well as how those ratings may eventually impact gender gaps in career advancement.

Book Synopsis Gender and Organizational Citizenship Behavior by : Heather M. Clarke

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A series of three studies examined the role of gender in predicting OCB performance as well as its impact on the appraisal and reward of OCB performance. Study 1 examined gender ideology as both a predictor of gender-congruent OCBs (i.e. helping for women and civic virtue for men) and a moderator of the relationships between attitudinal and dispositional antecedents and gender-congruent OCBs. Survey data from participants across a wide range of jobs and organizations revealed that men with a traditional gender ideology reported more civic virtue performance than women and men with an egalitarian ideology. Contrary to the predicted relationship, traditional women did not report more helping than egalitarian women or men. Consistent with previous research, job satisfaction, organizational justice, and conscientiousness were significantly correlated with OCBs. However, when modeled together, only conscientiousness explained additional variance in both helping and civic virtue. Contrary to predictions, a traditional gender ideology did not moderate the relationship between job attitudes and personality predictors and OCBs. Studies 2 and 3 examined the impact of gender-congruent OCBs on perceptions of competence, overall performance ratings and reward allocation decisions. In Study 2, students viewed a video of a male or female university instructor that included a brief lecture as well as additional statements, which in the experimental conditions, manipulated OCB performance. It was predicted that the performance of gender-incongruent OCBs (i.e. helping for men and civic virtue for women) would, because it is unexpected, be more likely to be noticed by raters than the performance of gender-congruent OCBs, and therefore cause inflation in competence and overall performance ratings. The hypotheses were not supported. Study 3 employed a modified design based upon Study 2 and results indicated that the highest competence and overall performance ratings were received when the instructor was female and performed civic virtue. OCB also explained unique variance in overall performance ratings over and above that accounted for by in-role performance. The results of the three studies are discussed along with their theoretical and applied implications, limitations of the studies, and recommendations for future research.

Book Synopsis Gendered Citizenship by : Bishnupriya Dutt
Download or read book Gendered Citizenship written by Bishnupriya Dutt and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how citizenship is differently gendered and performed across national and regional boundaries. Using ‘citizenship’ as its organizing concept, it is a collection of multidisciplinary approaches to legal, socio-cultural and performative aspects of gender construction and identity: violence against women, victimhood and agency, and everyday issues of socialization in a globalized world. It brings together scholars of politics, media, and performance who are committed to dialogue across both nation and discipline. This study is the culmination of a two-year project on the topic of 'Gendered Citizenship', arising from an international collaboration that has sought to develop a comparative and yet singular perspective on performance in relation to key political themes facing our countries of origin in the early decades of this century. The research is interdisciplinary and multinational, drawing on Indian, European, and North and South American contexts.

Book Synopsis Sexism and Stereotypes in Modern Society by : William B. Swann
Download or read book Sexism and Stereotypes in Modern Society written by William B. Swann and published by Amer Psychological Assn. This book was released on 1999 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once the province of a small group of theorists and researchers operating on the periphery of psychological science, gender research has charged into the psychological mainstream during the last two decades. In large measure, Janet T. Spence has been responsible for this transformation, challenging the traditional ideas of fundamental difference between men and women. The simple idea of difference, once used to rationalize prejudices and discrimination, has now been replaced by a complex, sophisticated awareness of how gender is constructed and maintained. This book explores new empirical work and theoretical models about the causes and consequences of constructing gender.
Book Synopsis Shapeshifters by : Aimee Meredith Cox
Download or read book Shapeshifters written by Aimee Meredith Cox and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2015-08-07 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Shapeshifters Aimee Meredith Cox explores how young Black women in a Detroit homeless shelter contest stereotypes, critique their status as partial citizens, and negotiate poverty, racism, and gender violence to create and imagine lives for themselves. Based on eight years of fieldwork at the Fresh Start shelter, Cox shows how the shelter's residents—who range in age from fifteen to twenty-two—employ strategic methods she characterizes as choreography to disrupt the social hierarchies and prescriptive narratives that work to marginalize them. Among these are dance and poetry, which residents learn in shelter workshops. These outlets for performance and self-expression, Cox shows, are key to the residents exercising their agency, while their creation of alternative family structures demands a rethinking of notions of care, protection, and love. Cox also uses these young women's experiences to tell larger stories: of Detroit's history, the Great Migration, deindustrialization, the politics of respectability, and the construction of Black girls and women as social problems. With Shapeshifters Cox gives a voice to young Black women who find creative and non-normative solutions to the problems that come with being young, Black, and female in America.

Book Synopsis Organizational Citizenship Behavior and Contextual Performance by : Walter C. Borman
Download or read book Organizational Citizenship Behavior and Contextual Performance written by Walter C. Borman and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-02-24 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These articles describe ideas about contextual performance, organizational citizenship behavior (OCB), and similar patterns of behavior that have been developed by scholars working from very different research traditions. It seems that the different research traditions are converging on the same notion--that besides formal job requirements, other patterns of behavior are also critical for organizational effectiveness and survival. These other patterns of behavior have been relatively ignored until recently, but now scholars are trying to define them, determine exactly why and how they are important for organizations, and identify their antecedents. The results of these research efforts-- described by articles in this issue--will help to make it possible to develop new conceptual and practical tools for managing these important behaviors and in that way promote human performance and organizational effectiveness.

Book Synopsis Living with Lynching by : Koritha Mitchell
Download or read book Living with Lynching written by Koritha Mitchell and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Living with Lynching: African American Lynching Plays, Performance, and Citizenship, 1890–1930 demonstrates that popular lynching plays were mechanisms through which African American communities survived actual and photographic mob violence. Often available in periodicals, lynching plays were read aloud or acted out by black church members, schoolchildren, and families. Koritha Mitchell shows that African Americans performed and read the scripts in community settings to certify to each other that lynching victims were not the isolated brutes that dominant discourses made them out to be. Instead, the play scripts often described victims as honorable heads of households being torn from model domestic units by white violence. In closely analyzing the political and spiritual uses of black theatre during the Progressive Era, Mitchell demonstrates that audiences were shown affective ties in black families, a subject often erased in mainstream images of African Americans. Examining lynching plays as archival texts that embody and reflect broad networks of sociocultural activism and exchange in the lives of black Americans, Mitchell finds that audiences were rehearsing and improvising new ways of enduring in the face of widespread racial terrorism. Images of the black soldier, lawyer, mother, and wife helped readers assure each other that they were upstanding individuals who deserved the right to participate in national culture and politics. These powerful community coping efforts helped African Americans band together and withstand the nation's rejection of them as viable citizens.

Book Synopsis Stereotype Threat by : Michael Inzlicht
Download or read book Stereotype Threat written by Michael Inzlicht and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 21st century has brought with it unparalleled levels of diversity in the classroom and the workforce. It is now common to see in elementary school, high school, and university classrooms, not to mention boardrooms and factory floors, a mixture of ethnicities, races, genders, and religious affiliations. But these changes in academic and economic opportunities have not directly translated into an elimination of group disparities in academic performance, career opportunities, and levels of advancement. Standard explanations for these disparities, which are vehemently debated in the scientific community and popular press, range from the view that women and minorities are genetically endowed with inferior abilities to the view that members of these demographic groups are products of environments that frustrate the development of the skills needed for success. Although these explanations differ along a continuum of nature vs. nurture, they share in common a presumption that a large chunk of our population lacks the potential to achieve academic and career success.In contrast to intractable factors like biology or upbringing, the research summarized in this book suggests that factors in one's immediate situation play a critical yet underappreciated role in temporarily suppressing the intellectual performance of women and minorities, creating an illusion of group differences in ability. Research conducted over the course of the last fifteen years suggests the mere existence of cultural stereotypes that assert the intellectual inferiority of these groups creates a threatening intellectual environment for stigmatized individuals - a climate where anything they say or do is interpreted through the lens of low expectations. This stereotype threat can ultimately interfere with intellectual functioning and academic engagement, setting the stage for later differences in educational attainment, career choice, and job advancement.
