Stereotype Content Model02:16

Stereotype Content Model

14.8K
The Stereotype Content Model (SCM) was first proposed by Susan Fiske and her colleagues (Fiske, Cuddy, Glick & Xu, 2002; see also Fiske, 2012 and Fiske, 2017). The SCM specifies that when someone encounters a new group, they will stereotype them based on two metrics: warmth—or that group’s perceived intent, and how likely they are to provide help or inflict harm—and competence—or their ability to carry out that objective. Depending on the warmth-competence...

Mnemonic Devices01:23

Mnemonic Devices

145
Mnemonic devices are cognitive tools that facilitate memory retention by linking new information to familiar patterns or organizational strategies. These techniques are beneficial for remembering complex or lengthy sets of information by simplifying and structuring them in easily retrievable ways.
Acronyms
Acronyms are created by using the initial letters of a series of words to form a new word or phrase. This approach condenses complex information into a single, memorable entity. For example,...

Autobiographical Memory01:14

Autobiographical Memory

5.8K
Autobiographical memory is a unique type of episodic memory that involves recollecting personal life experiences. It allows individuals to remember significant events from their past, creating a narrative of their lives. One interesting phenomenon related to autobiographical memory is the reminiscence bump. This effect refers to the tendency of adults to recall more events from their second and third decades of life — typically between ages 10 to 30 — than from other periods. This...

Stereotypes, Prejudice, and Discrimination

90.4K
Humans are very diverse and although we share many similarities, we also have many differences. The social groups we belong to help form our identities (Tajfel, 1974). These differences may be difficult for some people to reconcile, which may lead to prejudice toward people who are different. Prejudice is a negative attitude and feeling toward an individual based solely on one’s membership in a particular social group (Allport, 1954; Brown, 2010). Prejudice is common against people who...

In- and Out-Groups

39.2K
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.

Interference and Decay01:16

Interference and Decay

186
Forgetting is a complex cognitive phenomenon influenced by several factors, among which interference and decay are particularly prominent. These processes explain why individuals often struggle to retrieve specific information from memory, leading to lapses in recall that can be observed in everyday situations.
Interference occurs when competing memories hinder the retrieval of particular information. It can be classified into two types: proactive and retroactive interference. Proactive...

Summary

Organizational nostalgia can arise during threatening times, like workplace injustice or change. This nostalgia helps counteract negative impacts, boosting employee identification and work meaningfulness.

Area of Science:

  • Organizational Psychology
  • Social Psychology

Background:

  • Nostalgia is increasingly recognized for its potential roles within organizational settings.
  • A comprehensive overview of organizational nostalgia's functions is currently lacking.
  • Existing research on personal nostalgia with organizational relevance provides a foundation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To synthesize existing research on personal and organizational nostalgia.
  • To propose a model explaining how nostalgia operates in organizations.
  • To identify implications for future research and practice.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of personal nostalgia with organizationally relevant outcomes.
  • Literature review of organizational nostalgia research.
  • Development of a theoretical model of organizational nostalgia.
Keywords:
EmotionsNostalgiaOrganizational behaviorOrganizations

Main Results:

  • Threatening circumstances (e.g., injustice, organizational change) can evoke nostalgia.
  • Evoked nostalgia can mitigate negative effects of threat on organizational identification.
  • Nostalgia may enhance experienced work meaningfulness under threat.

Conclusions:

  • Nostalgia serves a protective function in organizations facing adversity.
  • The proposed model offers a framework for understanding nostalgia's mechanisms.
  • Further research should explore practical applications and boundary conditions.
