Identifying the Ingroup: A Closer Look at the Influence of Demographic Dissimilarity on Employee Social Identity
基于社会认同和自我分类理论,构建模型预测员工会认同人口学类别还是工作群体,并分析人口学差异如何影响社会认同。
Relational demography researchers have constructed models based on social identity theory and self-categorization theory, without fully incorporating their theoretical and empirical richness. We rectify this omission by constructing a model that includes key concepts from these theories and that predicts whether employees will identify with a particular demographic category or with their workgroup, or both. Propositions derived examine whether demographic dissimilarity will positively or negatively influence employee social identity.
