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统计类别还是工作群体,并探讨人口统计异质性对员工社会认同的正负影响。
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.
