身份认知与文化维度——中美文化背景下的集体主义与个体主义对比研究

中国的集体主义文化强调身份的集团性、社会权利和地位等级的差异性,在发生身份冲突的时候,以他人导向的方式维护集体的面子,在文化认同上强调对历史传统文化身份的维护和对集体价值观的遵守与发展。美国的个体主义文化体现了个体对自我价值、社会和文化身份的认同,强调的是面子自我导向型。个体主义的文化身份体现的不仅是社会文化价值体系的取向,更是个体文化价值的归宿。肯定中美文化的差异,加强中美文化的互相理解和文化移情,是实现有效地跨文化交际的必然途径。     

面对苦难的方式——评新世纪以来的乡村小说叙事

新世纪以来的乡村小说开始普遍地转向当下的乡村现实，关注乡村苦难，但在无节制的苦难叙事当中，人道主义和现实主义文学精神已逐渐被异化，真正的乡村现实反而遭到遮蔽。在这种情况下，只有少数作家仍坚持艺术创作上的独立精神和创造意识，为我们呈献出富有个性和深度的作品，并为文学正名。     

School context influences the ethnic identity development of immigrant children in middle childhood

The present paper describes a study investigating the ethnic identity development of Latino immigrant children (n = 155) in middle childhood (ages 8–11) in a predominantly White community. The study examined how ethnic identity was related to children's school context. School context was operationalized at the structural level, as the ethnic composition of the teachers and peers, as well as the schools' implicit messages about their valuing of multiculturalism; and the proximal interpersonal level, as children's perceptions of peer discrimination and teacher fairness. Results indicated that both the structural and proximal context predicted children's ethnic label choices, the importance placed on their ethnic identity, the positivity of their ethnic identity, and their American identity.     

Narratives of Low-Income Mothers in Addiction Recovery Centers: Motherhood and the Treatment Experience

ABSTRACT

This study examines the narratives shared by low-income women in addiction recovery centers about the meaning they attach to being a parent in recovery and how they view current program models that include children in daily treatment. Their stories reflect the centrality of the mothering role to women in recovery and offer insights that can guide treatment and program planning with families.     

Doing Gender Well and Differently in Dirty Work: The Case of Exotic Dancing

This article explores how a group of exotic dancers do gender and manage the stigma associated with their work and identities. We draw upon stigma management strategies from the dirty work literature and illuminate the doing of gender in these strategies. We also contribute to the debate that gender can be done well and differently through simultaneous, multiple enactments of femininity and masculinity. We consider the experiences of 21 exotic dancers working in a chain of UK exotic dancing clubs and conclude that in order to be good at their job, exotic dancers are expected to do gender well, that is, perform exaggerated expressions of femininity. However, we also theorize that for some dirty workers, specifically exotic dancers as sex workers, doing gender well will not be enough to reposition bad girls (bad, dirty work) into good girls (good, clean work). Finally, we propose that doing gender well will have different consequences in different types of work, thereby extending our findings to other dirty work occupations and organizations in general.

The Role of Criminal Social Identity in the Relationship between Criminal Friends and Criminal Thinking Style within a Sample of Recidivistic Prisoners

Previous research suggests a direct relationship between criminal friends and criminal thinking style; however, social identity theory proposes that identity mediates the impact of social group members on development of thinking styles. This research project is the first attempt to empirically test the mediating role of criminal social identity in the development of criminal thinking styles within a recidivistic prison sample (N = 312). The structural equation model of criminal thinking style presented and tested in this study supports the central predictions of social identity theory, with findings demonstrating an indirect effect of antisocial friend associations on criminal thinking through in-group affect and in-group ties with criminal in-group members that reflect two of three dimensions of the measure of criminal social identity applied in the current study. Further implications in relation to theory and previous studies are discussed.     

Young Women in the Australian Women’s Movement

This article explores and documents the role of young women in the contemporary Australian women’s movement. Through case studies of two very different groups of young women, working in submerged networks in the community and on university campuses, it aims to suggest the diversity of contemporary young feminist praxis. Further, it argues that the work that these young women are doing in discursively creating and maintaining a feminist political space is crucial to the future of the movement. Based in constructivist ‘new’ social movement theory this article suggests a way forward from the so-called ‘generational debates’ of the 1990s and argues that, through their own unique processes of collective identity, young women who are active in the Australian women’s movement are dealing with the conflicts that are essential to the movement’s survival.     

Prevalence and Predictors of Disclosure of Transgender Identity

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence and predictors of transgender identity disclosure in a gender minority sample. Participants (n = 156) were recruited from a New England transgender conference, and most (81%) reported male gender assignment at birth. Significant predictors of disclosure included age, transgender group, amount of time dressing as the identified gender, and involvement in the transgender community. The majority of participants indicated that they had disclosed to spouses and friends, followed by siblings and mothers. Individuals who disclosed to a greater number of people reported more social support than those who had disclosed to fewer people. Implications and limitations of this study are discussed.
