Book excerpt: A number of factors contribute to retention among college students, including social support and feelings of belonging (Rayle & Chung, 2007). Although college campuses are among the most racially diverse settings in our segregated society (Fischer, 2011), students differ in their perception of the racial climate on campus (Chavous, 2005). Social Baseline Theory (SBT) proposes that human functioning under stress is dependent on adequate social support and that, at baseline, biological systems are adapted to operate interdependently rather than independently (Hughes, Crowell, Uyeji, & Coan, 2012). Specifically, the substantial empirical support for SBT shows that stressful situations are less toxic (physiologically, hormonally, and subjectively) when another person, even a stranger, is present compared to when alone. However, there is a lack of research explicitly examining the replicability of this finding among interracial dyads. It is possible, based on different perspectives of the racial climate and different experiences in Intergroup contact between Black and White students, that SBT is conditional. That is, in interracial dyads, the presence of an out-group member may not reduce stress. The current study provides an initial test with two main aims. First, to replicate and extend the findings from the Social Baseline Theory (Coan, Schaefer, & Davidson, 2006) using the Trier Social Stress Test by examining whether White students would experience and report less stress when with a White (confederate) Partner than alone. Secondly, to explore whether the race of the partner influenced how the stressful situations were experienced by examining the effects of pairing Black students with a White (confederate) Partner. Fifty-four undergraduate students (Mage = 21.17; 28% male, 72% female; 68.5% White, 31.5% Black) were recruited from a predominantly White, Midwestern university and asked to participate in a study evaluating their ability to solve problems under time constraints. White participants were randomly assigned to either an Alone or White (confederate) Partner condition. All Black participants were assigned to have a White (confederate) Partner. All participants completed a modified version of the Trier Social Stress Test (Kirschbaum, Pirke, & Hellhammer, 1993), which involved giving a speech and completing a challenging vocal arithmetic task without (Alone condition) or with a White confederate (Partner condition). Participant heart rate and self-reported state anxiety served as repeated measures. The heart rate, but not self-reported state anxiety, data were generally consistent with predictions from SBT, as heart rate was statistically significantly higher in the Alone compared to both Partner conditions during the speech. There were no statistically significant differences between the Partner conditions. These data extend the findings supporting SBT to Black-White interracial dyads of collegians.
Book Synopsis A Theory of Behavior in Organizations by : James C. Naylor
Download or read book A Theory of Behavior in Organizations written by James C. Naylor and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Theory of Behavior in Organizations develops a theory for organizational behavior, or, more accurately, a theory of individual behavior within organizations of behavior. The book begins by discussing a series of general issues involved in the theory of behavior in organizations. It then describes the theory itself in three stages: first, the general structure of the theory; second, definition of the key variables; and third, the interrelationships between the variables. Subsequent chapters show how the theory deals specifically with such issues as roles, decision making, and motivation. The theory presented is a cognitive theory of behavior. It assumes that man is rational (or at least nonrandom) for the most part, and that as a systematic or nonrandom generator of behavior, man's actions are explained best in terms of conscious, thinking acts on the part of the individual. The theory deals with why the individual chooses certain alternative courses of action in preference to others, and thus it might properly be called a theory of choice behavior. Whereas the emphasis is on the cognitive aspects of behavior, considerable attention has been devoted to external, noncognitive variables in the system that play meaningful roles in the determination of individual behavior.
Download or read book College Belonging written by Lisa M. Nunn and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2021-02-12 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: College Belonging reveals how colleges’ and universities’ efforts to foster a sense of belonging in their students are misguided. Colleges bombard new students with the message to “get out there!” and “find your place” by joining student organizations, sports teams, clubs and the like. Nunn shows that this reflects a flawed understanding of what belonging is and how it works. Drawing on the sociological theories of Emile Durkheim, College Belonging shows that belonging is something that members of a community offer to each other. It is something that must be given, like a gift. Individuals cannot simply walk up to a group or community and demand belonging. That’s not how it works. The group must extend a sense of belonging to each and every member. It happens by making a person feel welcome, to feel that their presence matters to the group, that they would be missed if they were gone. This critical insight helps us understand why colleges' push for students simply to “get out there!” does not always work.

Book Synopsis Undermining Racial Justice by : Matthew Johnson
Download or read book Undermining Racial Justice written by Matthew Johnson and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2020-04-15 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last sixty years, administrators on college campuses nationwide have responded to black campus activists by making racial inclusion and inequality compatible. This bold argument is at the center of Matthew Johnson's powerful and controversial book. Focusing on the University of Michigan, often a key talking point in national debates about racial justice thanks to the contentious Gratz v. Bollinger 2003 Supreme Court case, Johnson argues that UM leaders incorporated black student dissent selectively into the institution's policies, practices, and values. This strategy was used to prevent activism from disrupting the institutional priorities that campus leaders deemed more important than racial justice. Despite knowing that racial disparities would likely continue, Johnson demonstrates that these administrators improbably saw themselves as champions of racial equity. What Johnson contends in Undermining Racial Justice is not that good intentions resulted in unforeseen negative consequences, but that the people who created and maintained racial inequities at premier institutions of higher education across the United States firmly believed they had good intentions in spite of all the evidence to the contrary. The case of the University of Michigan fits into a broader pattern at elite colleges and universities and is a cautionary tale for all in higher education. As Matthew Johnson illustrates, inclusion has always been a secondary priority, and, as a result, the policies of the late 1970s and 1980s ushered in a new and enduring era of racial retrenchment on campuses nationwide.
