Abstract

Moral stigma attached to an occupation can scar workers through discrediting, shaming, and denying respect. It can also open the door to interpersonal mistreatment, but little is known about how morally stigmatized workers navigate anticipated disrespect to potentially avoid harm. We explore this issue in a study of an occupation carrying severe moral stigma and where disrespect and workplace mistreatment are pervasive: models in hip-hop and rap music videos. Through analyses of 71 interviews with 48 video models and 19 industry informants, field observations, and archival data, we show how severe moral stigma and industry constraints promote generalized disrespect of video models (i.e., denial of worth to all role occupants) and, thus, each model's personal vulnerability to mistreatment. Two distinct groups of models emerged from our analysis-those who viewed themselves as emboldened in their role identity and those who did not-and this emboldened role identity was associated with differing perceptions of their personal vulnerability to mistreatment and their behaviors to mitigate it. The first group of models, those reporting an emboldened role identity, perceived their vulnerability to mistreatment as controllable. They strategically used both assertive behaviors (that earned respect from others) and passive behaviors (that avoided disrespect from others) to mitigate mistreatment. By contrast, the second group perceived their vulnerability to mistreatment as uncontrollable and reported using only passive behaviors (to avoid disrespect) when mistreatment was imminent. We discuss theoretical and practical implications of our findings, advancing knowledge of dirty work, workplace mistreatment, respect dynamics, and identity.

在说唱 "游戏 "中变得更加大胆:被严重鄙视的视频模特如何应对工作场所的不尊重和虐待。
一种职业所附带的道德烙印会通过诋毁、羞辱和剥夺尊重给工人造成创伤。它还会为人际间的虐待敞开大门,但人们对被道德鄙视的工人如何通过预期的不尊重来避免伤害却知之甚少。我们在一项研究中探讨了这一问题,该研究针对的是一种带有严重道德烙印、普遍存在不尊重和工作场所虐待现象的职业:嘻哈和说唱音乐视频中的模特。通过对 48 名视频模特和 19 名行业信息提供者的 71 次访谈、实地观察和档案数据的分析,我们展示了严重的道德污名和行业限制如何助长了对视频模特的普遍不尊重(即否认所有角色从业者的价值),从而导致每个模特个人易受虐待。在我们的分析中,出现了两类不同的模特--认为自己在角色认同中得到鼓励的模特和认为自己在角色认同中没有得到鼓励的模特。第一组模型,即那些报告自己的角色身份得到强化的模型,认为自己易受虐待的程度是可控的。他们策略性地使用自信行为(赢得他人尊重)和被动行为(避免他人不尊重)来减轻虐待。相比之下,第二组人认为他们易受虐待的程度是不可控的,并报告说,当虐待迫在眉睫时,他们只使用被动行为(避免不尊重)。我们讨论了研究结果的理论和实践意义,以增进对脏活累活、工作场所虐待、尊重动态和身份认同的了解。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA,保留所有权利)。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Applied Psychology® focuses on publishing original investigations that contribute new knowledge and understanding to fields of applied psychology (excluding clinical and applied experimental or human factors, which are better suited for other APA journals). The journal primarily considers empirical and theoretical investigations that enhance understanding of cognitive, motivational, affective, and behavioral psychological phenomena in work and organizational settings. These phenomena can occur at individual, group, organizational, or cultural levels, and in various work settings such as business, education, training, health, service, government, or military institutions. The journal welcomes submissions from both public and private sector organizations, for-profit or nonprofit. It publishes several types of articles, including: 1.Rigorously conducted empirical investigations that expand conceptual understanding (original investigations or meta-analyses). 2.Theory development articles and integrative conceptual reviews that synthesize literature and generate new theories on psychological phenomena to stimulate novel research. 3.Rigorously conducted qualitative research on phenomena that are challenging to capture with quantitative methods or require inductive theory building.
