Hogg's SPSSI Kurt Lewin Award Address","authors":"Dominic Abrams","doi":"10.1111/josi.12583","DOIUrl":"10.1111/josi.12583","url":null,"abstract":"<p>It is a great pleasure to write this introduction to Michael Hogg's Kurt Lewin Award address. I first met Michael Hogg (Mike) in 1983 at the University of Bristol where he had just completed his PhD supervised by John Turner, and where Mike and I were appointed as assistant professors responsible for the whole social psychology program. We were temporary substitutes for Turner (who had moved to Australia) and Howard Giles, who had moved to California. We became great friends and lifelong collaborators. In 1985 Mike moved to a postdoc with Turner at Macquarie University in Sydney, and subsequently an associate professorship at the University of Melbourne in 1986 and then on to the University of Queensland, from 1991. There he founded the Centre for Research on Group Processes. After a period as visiting professor at Princeton University from 1997 to 1998, and an Australian Research Council Professorial Fellow at Queensland from 2004 to 2006, he moved to Claremont Graduate University in Los Angeles where he directs the prestigious social identity research laboratory.</p><p>Mike's phenomenal research output has earned him fellowships and recognition from all of the major professional societies in his field. These include his election as a fellow of the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia (1991), the Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues (SPSSI, 2003); the Society of Personality and Social Psychology (SPSP, 2009); the Society of Experimental Social Psychology (SESP, 2009); and the Association for Psychological Science (2010). He served as council member of the Society of Experimental Social Psychology in 2012, and was then elected its president in 2013, a rare example of a non-North American holding that position. His achievements have also been recognized through the 2020 <i>Distinguished Lifetime Career Award</i> from the International Society for Self and Identity, the 2021 SPSP <i>Campbell Award</i> for distinguished achievement and sustained excellence, and, celebrated here, the 2022 SPSSI <i>Kurt Lewin Award</i>.</p><p>As one of the most direct descendants of the Tajfel/Billig/Turner/Giles group, Mike has been a central figure in bringing social identity theory to international prominence. His early work with Turner provided one of the cornerstones of self-categorization theory, establishing both the empirical foundations and communicating the details of the theory. But most importantly it is his subsequent work to connect and engage with researchers in other parts of the discipline, by inviting contributions to edited collections, arranging conferences and seminars, and engaging with their interests so energetically, that enabled the social identity perspective to shift from being a niche European theory to a central and mainstream part of social psychology. In fact it is hard to envisage any current social psychological work on intergroup relations or group processes in social psychology that does not invoke social i","PeriodicalId":17008,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Issues","volume":"79 2","pages":"822-824"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2023-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/josi.12583","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45539080","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article overviews <i>uncertainty-identity theory</i>’s analysis of the motivational role played by self-uncertainty in group identification and group/intergroup behavior, and focuses on how self-uncertainty can motivate zealous identification with “extremist” groups and identities. People need a clear sense of who they are to understand the world and their place within it, and to plan action and anticipate others’ behavior. They strive to reduce self-uncertainty, and can achieve this by identifying with distinctive groups that have unambiguously defined social identities. Tumultuous social change can create identity threat, self-uncertainty, and alienation from and marginalization in society. To reduce self-uncertainty people zealously identify with ethnocentric, populist and xenophobic groups that are intolerant of dissent and have autocratic leaders—effectively building identity silos and walls between hyper-polarized groups. Under these circumstances breaking down walls to reconcile polarized and hostile groups and identities is a challenge. I close by outlining <i>intergroup leadership theory</i>, and its implications for building harmony between polarized identities—a particular form of leadership and identity messaging plays a key role.</p>","PeriodicalId":17008,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Issues","volume":"79 2","pages":"825-840"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2023-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/josi.12584","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42028925","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Before Goffman's influential book only a handful of papers used the term in the abstract or title of a paper—in 2020 there were 3464. While the reason for stigma's dramatic growth is likely over determined two possibilities are suggested. The first is the usefulness that the concept carries for understanding the shame, social awkwardness, rejection, misunderstanding, and exclusion that people frequently experience across so many stigmatizing circumstances. The second is that the complexity of the stigma experience provides an enormous number of research puzzles in need of investigation as there are so many different stigmatizing circumstances that are affected at multiple levels across multiple outcomes. The current special issue addresses this complexity by focusing on the particularly important domain of social relationships but at the same allows complexity in the types of stigmatizing circumstances considered and the levels at which they are investigated. In what might be a model for the stigma field as it faces its tremendous growth, Doyle and Barreto (2023) use the multiple contributions to the special issue to develop thematic questions that will guide future research into stigma and social relationships.</p>","PeriodicalId":17008,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Issues","volume":"79 1","pages":"528-535"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2023-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48315551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although previous research suggests that antecedent goals, or the reasons why individuals disclose their stigma to others, have a fundamental influence on disclosure events and their subsequent outcomes, much of this work has focused on the perspective of the discloser, with little attention paid to the perspective of the confidant. The current experiment used the Actor-Partner Interdependence Model to test the hypothesis that more salient compassionate, as opposed to self-image-focused, goals would be associated with more positive disclosure experiences, for both dyad members, as reflected in their self-reports of improved affect, greater interpersonal closeness, reduced anticipated stigma, bolstered social support, and increased trust. Results indicated that, although focusing on compassionate goals during disclosure can foster feelings of interpersonal closeness and perceived trust, prioritizing the needs of one's confidant in conjunction with one's own needs may, at times, have ironic negative effects, including diminished positive affect. Overall, findings highlight the continued need to examine reciprocal influence processes in interpersonal disclosure contexts to better understand when, why, and for whom revealing a concealable stigma will yield benefit, rather than harm.</p>","PeriodicalId":17008,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Issues","volume":"79 1","pages":"360-389"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2023-03-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49386283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They extend this issue's discussion of the COVID-19 pandemic's impact on women's health and safety in ways that have exposed and expanded gender inequalities, and differently for different groups of women, to the discourse of how disaster responses have not only failed women, but have also been used opportunistically by elites to enhance racial and gendered capitalism. In the first half of the article, the authors discuss how the previous feminist literature on the gendering of disasters, with important exceptions, largely misses a critique of the ways the crisis of neoliberalism and the role of racial and gendered global capitalism sets the stage for women to be targets for disaster opportunism. At the same time, critical scholars who have taken on the analysis of disaster capitalism often ignore the well-established feminist social science on disasters. In the second half of the article, the authors bridge these two literatures and provide an intersectional gendered analysis of what they call the political economy of “racialized patriarchal disaster capitalism” as applied to select cases from the COVID crisis as illustrations. Finally, the authors discuss the theoretical implications of their analysis for feminist conceptualizations of disaster opportunism, as well as practical implications for global public health advocates, policy makers, NGOs, and feminist health activists.</p>","PeriodicalId":17008,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Social Issues","volume":"79 2","pages":"794-821"},"PeriodicalIF":3.9,"publicationDate":"2023-02-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43340537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Black mothers, in particular, have shouldered the heightened stresses of being Black and female during a time of immense anti-Black racism and societal pressures to assume caretaking roles at the expense of, or in addition to, other financial obligations. Thus, this study examines the relationship between COVID-19 related financial difficulties, racial discrimination, and the protective role of stable income on Black mothers’ (<i>N</i> = 949) mental wellbeing (i.e., anxiety, depression, loneliness, and stress). Using regression analyses, we find that financial difficulties and experiences of racial discrimination along with related concerns for children are associated with higher rates of anxiety, depression, loneliness, and stress. Moderation analyses suggest that at the highest level of financial difficulties, stable income can serve as a protective factor for anxiety. However, the study found no significant interactions between financial difficulties and experiences of racial discrimination or related concern for children.

The second involves enhanced reactivity to relationally devaluing experiences such as discrimination and ostracism as a function of this limited reserve of perceived control. We present a perceived control-relationally devaluing experiences model of low SES vulnerability to impaired relationship functioning that incorporates these predictions and further specifies how low SES individuals’ reduced perceptions of control may help account for documented associations between low SES and negative interpersonal outcomes such as hostility, aggression, and reduced relationship quality.

In order to more deeply investigate the relational consequences of social stigma, researchers interested in this topic need to consider the potential contributions of relationship science. Drawing upon past theory, we pose four overarching questions that may help bridge research on social stigma with relationship science: (1) What types of relationships are relevant to understanding the social consequences of stigma? (2) How do relationships operate when partners are faced with social stigma? (3) What psychosocial tendencies do people whose identities are stigmatized bring to their relationships? (4) How does the broader social context affect relationships for members of stigmatized groups? We also consider methodological advances from relationship science, broadly defined, that may progress research in this area. Finally, we highlight the importance of eliminating discriminatory policy as well as introducing policy aimed at remediating social inequalities to ensuring equity in social health between members of stigmatized and dominant groups.

In addition, we argue boys’ sending nudes (dick pics) non-consensually is a form of image based sexual harassment, which can be compounded by harassment of girls to send nudes back. We look at the gendered nature of combined practices of Image-Based Sexual Harassment and Abuse (IBSHA) and how sexual double standards create sexual shaming and victim blaming for girls who experience IBSHA. We also explore young people's perspectives on their digital sex and relationship education and their suggestions for improvement. We conclude by arguing that schooling policies and practices would benefit from adopting the conceptual framework of IBSHA.
