Robbers Cave04:49

Robbers Cave

14.9K
During the 1950s, the landmark Robbers Cave experiment demonstrated that when groups must compete with one another, intergroup conflict, hostility, and even violence may result. At the Oklahoman summer camp, two troops of boys—termed the Rattlers and the Eagles—took part in a week-long tournament. During this time, their negativity culminated in derogatory name-calling, fistfights, and even vandalism and destruction of property. However, this work also revealed that such tension...

People all belong to a gender, race, age, and social economic group. These groups provide a powerful source of our identity and self-esteem (Tajfel & Turner, 1979) and serve as our in-groups. An in-group is a group that we identify with or see ourselves as belonging to.

Cognitive Dissonance01:38

Cognitive Dissonance

37.5K
Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Impression Management Techniques IV: Altercasting01:14

Impression Management Techniques IV: Altercasting

194
Altercasting is a strategic communication technique in which an individual imposes a specific identity or social role onto another person to influence their behavior and shape the interaction. By presuming a role—such as “responsible leader” or “patient person”—altercasting encourages the target to conform to that identity, often aligning their behavior with the expectations associated with the role. The power of this tactic lies in its subtlety; once a role...

Area of Science:

  • Sports Management
  • Social Psychology
  • Organizational Behavior

Background:

  • Conference realignment in collegiate sports is a frequent occurrence.
  • Fan perceptions of rivals are crucial for understanding team loyalty and engagement.
  • Previous research has not fully explored the impact of realignment on fan rivalry perceptions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate how conference realignment and new competitions affect fan rivalry perceptions.
  • To compare fan rivalry perceptions before and after conference realignment for specific teams.
  • To identify factors influencing changes in rivalry perceptions.

Main Methods:

  • Longitudinal case study design.
  • Comparative analysis of fan perceptions before and after conference realignment.
  • Focus on fan bases of Texas A&M Aggies, Missouri Tigers, and TCU Horned Frogs.

Main Results:

  • Fans of teams with long-standing rivalries (e.g., Texas A&M/Texas, Missouri/Kansas) showed no significant change in rivalry perceptions post-realignment.
  • Fans of TCU demonstrated significant shifts in rivalry perceptions, particularly regarding Boise State (previous rival) and Baylor (current rival).
  • Historical context and the nature of existing rivalries influence the impact of conference realignment.

Conclusions:

  • Conference realignment can significantly alter fan rivalry perceptions, particularly for teams entering new competitive landscapes.
  • The importance of historical rivalries suggests that some fan perceptions are resilient to conference changes.
  • Sport managers should consider the role of history and existing relationships when navigating conference realignment.
