▼ Confrontation is defined as expressing displeasure with mistreatment and is a behavioral response to
ostracism – being ignored and excluded by others. According to the temporal need-threat model of
ostracism, targets’ interpersonal behaviors following
ostracism act to restore depleted need satisfaction and mood. The aims of this research were 1) to examine the use of confrontation in response to
ostracism, and 2) to study its effectiveness as a coping method.
In sum, these studies established confrontation as a frequent response to
ostracism that is influenced by both the targets’ psychological response and the social context in which it occurs. Four experiments were conducted using participants from an introductory psychology
subject pool. Study 1 manipulated
ostracism to targets’ attitudes towards contacting the sources of
ostracism. Study 2 used a mixed design and behavioral measure of confrontation to examine how frequently people confront, and potential effects on need-satisfaction and mood over time. Study 3 manipulated the coping method used following
ostracism to compare confrontation’s effectiveness to a solo writing task and a distraction task. Study 4 examined individual differences and contextual factors that influence the likelihood of confrontation.
Study 1 found that while participants most preferred to take no action, public contact with the
ostracism sources was preferred over other options. In Study 2, one in three ostracized participants chose to confront, more frequent than included participants. Study 3 found that confrontation was more effective for reducing anger than the writing task. Distraction was more effective in increasing need-satisfaction compared to the confrontation task. Study 4 showed that male gender, need-depletion, and negative affect increased the likelihood of confrontation. However, these effects varied based on whether or not participants believed they were playing with members of their racial in-group or out-group.
In sum, confrontation was a common response to
ostracism. The usage of confrontation was influenced by sadness as well as interactions between social context and psychological responses or individual differences.

▼ The developmental periods of adolescence (13- to 18-years), and emerging-adulthood (18- to 25-years) are important stages for an individual’s emotional and psychological development. For most, adolescence and emerging-adulthood are times of excitement, a time in which they mature and develop a deeper sense of personal identity. However, there is also a subset of the general population who can develop psychological problems such as substance abuse disorders, delinquency, depression, and suicide during this time. While the aetiology of these problems is not entirely clear, a number of researchers have shown that one of the biggest external predictors of problem-behaviour during adolescence and emerging-adulthood is peer influence.
Ostracism - the act of being excluded or ignored by others is one aspect of peer influence that warrants considerable scientific attention. A large body of research has shown that
ostracism is associated with a decrease in an individual’s psychological well-being, including their self-esteem. Furthermore, work conducted both within our own laboratory and in others has suggested that adolescents and emerging adults may be at an increased risk of experiencing negative effects following
ostracism.
The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the psychological and behavioural impacts of
ostracism in adolescent and emerging-adult samples. In Experiment 1, we recruited samples of adolescents, emerging-adults, and young-adults, and examined whether
ostracism would influence participants propensity to assert control over a group situation by nominating themselves as a leader. For Experiment 2 and Experiment 3, we chose to focus our investigations on the emerging-adult population. In Experiment 2 we examined the relation between
ostracism and risk-taking behaviour, and in Experiment 3 we examined the relation between
ostracism and aggressive behaviour, and the effect of being ostracised by a group of close friends compared to a group of strangers.
Overall we found a number of interesting findings. First, consistent with the
ostracism literature, in all three of our experiments we found that
ostracism had a strong negative effect on participants’ psychological well-being. Second, we found a number of specific effects of
ostracism on participants’ behaviour. In Experiment 1 we found that individuals who reported the greatest negative effect of
ostracism on their self-esteem were more likely to nominate themselves for a leadership role; this may be one way in which individuals who are worst affected by
ostracism attempt to buffer and re-build their diminished self-esteem. In Experiment 2 we found that ostracised participants were significantly less likely to take risks on a computer-based risk-taking task compared to included participants, therefore suggesting a link between
ostracism and introverted behaviour. Finally, in Experiment 3 we found two findings; first, despite prior research suggesting a link between
ostracism and increased aggressive behaviour, we found no effect of
ostracism on…

▼ Ostracism has been shown to have a variety of negative effects on the target, though the reported nature of these has varied due to differing manipulations of the phenomenon. The experiments reported attempt to characterise the consequences of computer-mediated (CM) ostracism using a range of approaches. Investigation of on-line social behaviour in Internet chat rooms revealed similar patterns of group behaviour, including ostracism, to those reported in face-to-face communication. Fourier analyses revealed periodic structure to the comments made in CM group communication qualitatively similar to that previously reported in dyadic face-to-face communication. Identity changes and ostracism occurrences were also found to be periodic. The power spectra produced by these analyses revealed that comments, identity changes and ostracism typically showed a gradient of 1/f - 11/, a characteristic common to many physical and biological systems but not previously reported in social communication. Further experiments revealed that level of anonymity did not modulate a reduction in comments made by CM ostracised participants. Thus the partial anonymity conferred by CM communication cannot account for the differential effect of ostracism in CM and face-to-face contexts. Experiments on the effect of ostracism upon cognition revealed that ostracised participants reacted significantly slower on a Strop task, but made fewer errors. Performance on a Remote Associates Task was bifurcated whereby those who accurately estimated the extent of their exclusion performed significantly worse than non-ostracised participants. Ostracised participants who under-estimated their exclusion performed similarly to non-ostracised participants. Many of these findings are consistent with a hypothesis that ostracism may be considered a form of (social) pain whose consequences may be mediated by neural substrates that partially overlap with those implicated in responses to physical pain. The findings suggest that a full characterisation of individual and situational differences in ostracism effects may require a combination of techniques, from neuron-imaging to traditional social psychological methodologies.

▼ Ostracism, defined as being excluded and ignored, is a painful and pervasive social phenomenon. To date, very little research has explored why the adverse psychological consequences of
ostracism persist for some individuals but not for others. Therefore, the primary aim of the present thesis was to examine cognitive processes that cause the negative effects of
ostracism to persist. In Chapter Two, a clinical model of social phobia was used to identify focus of attention as a factor that may cause the negative effects of
ostracism to persist. It was hypothesised that the aversive effects of
ostracism would persist for participants who maintained self-focused attention, relative to those who maintained externally-focused attention. The results of this chapter demonstrated that focus of attention did not influence persistence of
ostracisms aversive effects. However, post-hoc analyses revealed that participants who were self-focused and did not spontaneously reappraise the
ostracism episode recovered more slowly than those who did spontaneously reappraise. As reappraiser status (i.e., reappraiser vs. non-reappraiser) was not manipulated in the experiments in this chapter, it was not possible to comment on its causal role in prolonging the negative effects of
ostracism. Therefore, in Chapter Three, attempts were made to manipulate reappraiser status using two different methodologies. As reappraiser status was resistant to change, it was still not possible to comment on its causal role in recovery from
ostracism. However, consistent with the post-hoc findings from Chapter Two, results from Chapter Three demonstrated that the aversive consequences of social exclusion persisted for spontaneous non-reappraisers, relative to spontaneous reappraisers. Finally, in Chapter Four, based on a model of mood regulation, it was hypothesised that retrieving negative autobiographical memories after being excluded would prolong the aversive effects of exclusion. Results indicated that the persistence of the adverse effects of
ostracism may not necessarily be the result of retrieving negative memories specifically, but rather may be due to engaging in a task that prolongs the aversive mood state produced by being socially excluded. Taken together, the above findings elucidate several factors that prolong the negative impact of
ostracism and have several theoretical and clinical implications.

▼ Amaç: Bu araştırma, Türkiye’de yükseköğretim kurumlarında görev yapan öğretim elemanlarının güç bağlamında akademik dışlanmışlık algılarının incelenmesi amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu doğrultuda katılımcıların algılarına göre dışlanmışlık düzeyleri ve bölüm başkanları ya da idarecilerin kullandıkları güç türleri belirlenmeye çalışılarak örgütsel güç faktörleri ile dışlanma arasında bulunan ilişki ve yordama düzeyleri belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Yöntem: Araştırmada güç bağlamında akademik dışlanmışlık kavramının incelenmesi amacıyla korelasyonel desen kullanılmıştır. 2016-2017 yılları içerisinde Türkiye'de yükseköğretim kurumlarında profesör, doçent, doktor öğretim üyesi, araştırma görevlisi ve öğretim görevlisi olarak çalışan öğretim elemanları evren olarak belirlenmiştir. Bu nedenle 2017 yılının Nisan ayında farklı üniversitelerde ve belirtilen kadrolarda görev yapan yaklaşık 25.000 öğretim elemanına elektronik posta yoluyla ulaşılmak istenmiş olup çalışma grubu olarak geri dönüt alınabilen 725 öğretim elemanı belirlenmiştir. Çalışmada veri toplamak için Ferris, Brown, Berry ve Lian (2008) tarafından geliştirilen ve 13 maddeden oluşan 5'li Likert tipinde uygulanan ‘İşyerinde Dışlanma Ölçeği’ ve Altınkurt ve Yılmaz (2013) tarafından geliştirilen ve 40 maddeden oluşan 5'li Likert tipinde uygulanan ‘Okullarda Örgütsel Güç Ölçeği’ kullanılmıştır. Çalışma soruları kapsamında dışlanmışlık ve güç kavramları arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemek amacıyla t-testi, ANOVA, korelasyon analizi ve çoklu regresyon analizi kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Araştırmada katılımcıların örgütsel güç türleri algılarına göre çalıştıkları kurumlardaki bölüm başkanı ya da idarecilerin en çok yasal gücü kullandıkları görülmüştür. İş yerinde dışlanma algıları güç bağlamında düşük düzeyde görülmektedir. Katılımcıların örgütsel güç türleri algılarının iş yerinde dışlanma algılarını yordama düzeyini saptamak amacıyla gerçekleştirilen çoklu regresyon analizi sonuçları incelendiğinde örgütsel güç faktörlerinin katılımcıların iş yerinde dışlanma algılarının ortalamasını yordama gücü istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bulunmuştur. Örgütsel güç faktör puanlarının katılımcıların iş yerinde dışlanma algılarının ortalamasının %2’sini açıklayabildiğini, %98’lik kısmının ise diğer değişkenlerle açıklanabileceği saptanmıştır. Regresyon katsayılarının anlamlılığına ilişkin t-testi sonuçları incelendiğinde ‘Zorlayıcı Güç’ faktörünün ‘Dışlanma’ üzerinde anlamlı bir yordayıcı olduğu görülmekte olup dışlanma varsayısının %14’ünü açıklamaktadır. Sonuç ve Öneriler: Katılımcıların algılarına göre görev yaptıkları birimlerde en çok karşılaştıkları güç türünün ‘Yasal Güç‘ olarak görülmektedir. Bunun nedeni olarak yükseköğretim kanununun yöneticilere verdiği geniş yetkiler olduğu sanılmaktadır. Kurum türü değişkenine göre bakıldığında katılımcıların algıladıkları güç türlerinden ‘Ödül Gücü’ değişkeninin enstitülerde çalışan katılımcılarla yüksekokullarda çalışan katılımcılar arasında anlamlı bir farklılık olduğu görülmektedir. Bunun da nedeni; enstitülerde görev yapan öğretim…

▼ Individuals frequently witness acts of
ostracism (e.g., in schools or in workplaces). Research examining the impact of vicarious
ostracism is still in its nascent stages and has not yet explored how observing
ostracism might affect observers’ perceptions of human nature and antisocial inclinations. And only to a limited degree have the moderators of the effects of witnessing
ostracism been identified. The present study sought to fill these gaps in the literature by determining whether observing
ostracism might lead observers to subsequently perceive human nature in general less favorably (i.e., to see people as more immoral and less trustworthy) and heighten their antisocial inclinations. It further examined if these effects were moderated by observers’ dispositional attachment. I hypothesized that, after witnessing
ostracism or inclusion relative to a neutral control condition, anxious attachment would predict reduced favorability of observers’ perceptions of human nature and increased antisocial inclinations. In contrast, avoidant attachment was expected to predict enhanced favorability of observers’ views of human nature and reduced antisocial inclinations, but only after witnessing
ostracism. Six hundred and twenty-seven university students observed another individual be ostracized or included in an online game of ball-toss or anticipated an upcoming game. Subsequently, I assessed their views of human nature as well as their antisocial inclinations. Results partially supported hypotheses. After observing
ostracism observers low in attachment anxiety were marginally more likely to report less favorable views of human nature (and a similar trend emerged after observing inclusion), while witnessing
ostracism significantly increased the antisocial inclinations of observers high in attachment avoidance. Discussion focuses on the meaning and theoretical and practical implications of these results.

▼ Punishment is an important method for discouraging uncooperative behavior. This work studies the information used when deciding to apply a punishment, and what punishment to apply. We use a novel design for a public goods game in which a player’s actual contribution is a random deviation from their intended contribution, and both the intended and actual contributions are explicitly displayed to all players. This feature lets players detect accidental free riding or accidental high contributing. Multiple types of punishment are studied, including fines,
ostracism, and reputation marking. We investigate the effect of a punishment’s efficacy for changing behavior on the continued use of the punishment. We investigate the effect of local norms of punishment. We also investigate the effect of the cost of applying a punishment. Our novel design with automated players allows complete experimental control and thus provides the capability to manipulate these factors directly. Bayesian hierarchical models are used for data analysis. Contrary to some pre-existing literature, punishment decisions are found to be flexible, to be responsive to changing conditions, and to emphasize outcomes over intentions only in specific, narrow circumstances. Moreover, we find that the rarely studied punishments of
ostracism and reputation marking are quite different from the more often studied fine in how they are utilized, and thus these and other alternative punishments are essential to study in the future.

▼ Groups are an important component of self-concepts and
essential to survival; however, the demographic composition of a
group often provides important cues as to whether an individual
will be accepted and this implicit information can affect our
identification with novel groups. Although prior research regarding
ambient belonging and group-level
ostracism have attempted to
address the issue of gender exclusion, no research to date
investigates racial exclusion, identity with the targeted group
(e.g., racial identity, gender identity), or affiliation with the
excluding group. Drawing on several psychological theories
including social identity,
ostracism, and discrimination, the
current research features independently produced videos for
""Digital Heroes"" a group of young Americans interested in new and
interactive media, that systematically omit specific racial and
gender groups to investigate the effects of racial and gender
exclusion on viewer self-concepts, identity, and attitudes. ❧
Results reveal that, for participants that self-categorize with a
novel group (i.e., ""I am a Digital Hero""), racial and gender
exclusion interact with racial and gender identity in a similar
manner: For participants highly identified with their race or
gender, demographic group exclusion resulted in lower Digital Hero
identity, whereas participants not highly identified with their
race or gender reported greater Digital Hero identity when their
demographic group was excluded. These findings indicate that
identification with the targeted demographic group (e.g., race,
gender) activates different mechanisms for coping with demographic
group exclusion from a group with which the participant desires to
belong, and provide insight into the effects of excluding other
demographic groups (e.g., religion, sexuality, body size).
Furthermore, although the effects of racial and gender exclusion on
identity with the novel group were similar, only racial exclusion
increased negative mood indicating that racial exclusion, but not
gender exclusion, was personally painful. These findings are
relevant to a variety of research areas including intergroup
relations, social exclusion, social identity, identity threat, and
discrimination as well as fields outside of psychology including
communication and media studies, political science, and race and
gender studies.

▼ This research falls into two streams. The first investigated perspective-related differences in ostracism (i.e., the act of being excluded or ignored) by comparing the experience of targets (i.e., those who are ostracised), sources (i.e., those who ostracise), and observers (i.e., those who witness ostracism). Studies 1 (N = 202) and 2 (N = 295) utilised questionnaire and autobiographical recall paradigms to investigate the impact of ostracism on primary needs, affect, and behaviour. Studies 1 and 2 also examined perspective-related differences in (perceived) motives for ostracism. The second stream focused on ostracism sources to discern mixed findings regarding source responses, and to further investigate ostracism motive. Study 3 reviewed current source literature, and meta-analyses compared source experiences to targets and included individuals finding that sources reported greater control and guilt. Factors such as ostracising alone or with others, or ostracism being self-motivated or induced, moderated effects. Studies 4, 5, and 6 extended this inquiry by examining how source experiences differ as a function of ostracism motive. Study 4 (N = 136) supported the efficacy of a paradigm created to induce the experience of ostracising for punitive versus defensive motives. Employing this paradigm, Study 5 (N = 372) investigated the impact of motive on sources’ experienced emotion, and Study 6 (N = 743) considered behavioural intentions. This project was the first to examine perspective-related differences in being a target, source, and observer of ostracism, and to consider the impact of ostracising for specific motives on sources. Findings highlight how consequences differ as a function of motives for ostracism, add to growing literature on ostracism sources, and support predictions regarding the mediating role of affect in prompting behaviour.

▼ Creativity is a social construct affected by personality, intelligence, motivation, historical context, and environment, among other variables.
Ostracism is a form of social rejection that has been shown to negatively affect cognitive processes. The present study tested whether there was a causal relationship between the experience of
ostracism and subsequent creativity. Participants in the present study were either included or excluded during a game of Cyberball, and then were in one of three social conditions (social: expectation for future social interaction with a confederate, coaction with a confederate: no expectation for future social interaction; or solo task completion: no confederate present) while they completed two tasks of creativity (drawing and writing). Multivariate analysis of the drawing task ratings revealed a significant Cyberball x social condition x drawing apprehension interaction; participants in the Cyberball-excluded/solo condition received the highest ratings on complexity, but only when they were high in drawing apprehension. Additionally, Cyberball-included/social condition, participants high in drawing apprehension received much higher ratings of drawing complexity than participants low in drawing apprehension. The implications of these findings are discussed, as well as directions for future research. (Published By University of Alabama Libraries)

CONTRASTING WORKPLACE OSTRACISM AND WORKPLACE INCIVILITY VIA OBSERVER REACTIONS.

▼ Workplace
ostracism and workplace incivility are similar constructs in that both are low-intensity negative behaviors at work yet with ambiguous intent to harm (Andersson & Pearson, 1999). Thus, it is not clear whether the two constructs should be considered the same or not. I argue that workplace
ostracism can be differentiated from workplace incivility by examining observer reactions to workplace
ostracism and workplace incivility. To contrast workplace
ostracism with workplace incivility, I examine how observers of workplace
ostracism and workplace incivility react to those who are directly involved in workplace
ostracism and workplace incivility: the targets toward whom workplace
ostracism and workplace incivility are directed, and the perpetrators who are the source of workplace
ostracism and workplace incivility. I also examine observer reactions to those who are completely uninvolved in workplace
ostracism and workplace incivility: unrelated others, or nonspecific others in the workplace with whom observers of workplace
ostracism and workplace incivility may interact subsequently.
In particular, first, drawing on an evolutionary and stigmatization framework, I argue that observers will react more negatively to the targets of workplace
ostracism compared to the targets of workplace incivility. Second, as observers of workplace
ostracism are less likely to perceive workplace
ostracism as unjust, immoral and harmful, I argue that observers will react more positively to the perpetrators of workplace
ostracism compared to the perpetrators of workplace incivility. Third, as workplace
ostracism primes the need to belong in observers of workplace
ostracism, I argue that observers of workplace
ostracism will be motivated to conform toward the opinions of unrelated others and behave prosocially towards unrelated others at work. On the other hand, social learning theory, social information processing theory, and priming frameworks together suggest that observers of workplace incivility can learn from or be primed with uncivil thoughts after observing incivility, and thus are less likely to conform toward the opinions of unrelated others and behave prosocially towards unrelated others.
Results from three studies generally supported these predictions. That is, observers of workplace
ostracism and workplace incivility reacted differently to the target, perpetrators, and unrelated others: compared to observers of workplace incivility, observers of workplace
ostracism were more likely to react negatively to the target and positively to the perpetrators (Study 1), and to conform (but not behave prosocially) to unrelated others (Study 3). However, findings of explanations for these effects were mixed: compared to workplace incivility, more stigmatization of the target did not explain observers’ more negative reactions to the target of workplace
ostracism; and a greater need to belong did not mediate workplace
ostracism observers’ conformity and prosocial behaviors toward unrelated others (Study 3). However, justice…

▼ Drawing from the temporal need-threat theory of
ostracism (Williams, 2009), and uncertainty-identity theory (Hogg, 2007), I tested the hypothesis that
ostracism increases interest in extreme groups. In a cross-sectional survey, Study 1 showed that chronic
ostracism positively predicts interest in the Westboro Baptist Church, Mormonism, Scientology, and Alcoholics Anonymous. Study 2 established causal direction; relative to included participants, ostracized participants expressed greater willingness to attend a meeting of an extreme group following a recruitment attempt. Expressing a desire to attend meetings facilitated recovery of basic need satisfaction.
Ostracism also induced self-uncertainty, but this did not mediate the effect. In an attempted replication involving no interpersonal contact, Study 3 failed to show differences in group interest as a function of
ostracism. Studies 1 and 2 suggest that
ostracism increases vulnerability to extreme group recruitment, and Study 3's failed results suggest that prior contact with a group member is a boundary condition.

▼ In this work we research on social injustice as depicted in Contours du jour qui vient and
l’Archer Bassari written by Léonora Miano and Modibo S. Kéita respectively. The study
articulates problems that are the root causes of this uncalled for phenomenon. We realized
that traditional beliefs, opportunism, patriarchy, unemployment, civil war, indigence, corruption,
ignorance of the existing laws, aiding and abetting are, among others, the proximate pushing
factors for the administration of injustice as described in francophone African literary works in
French. The means by which this malevolence is meted out to people are ostracism or expulsion,
extortion, neglect, deprivation, sexual exploitation and assassination. The aged, the indigents,
minors and the verdants are more often than not the targets. The perpetrators subtly malhandle
their victims, plunge themselves in bloodshed, extort and torture their prey for their personal
gains. These vulnerable ones are deprived of their liberty, stigmatized and are even murdered in
cold blood. The work also criticizes the conspiracy and corruption of the political,
traditional as well as religious gurus, the irresponsibility of parents, the lack of a credible
judicial system that would reliably render justice. Our major aim is to unearth the root causes
of this canker. As every injustice meted out has inevitable aftermaths, we are obliged to find a
remedy for them as well. We employ socio-criticism as analytical tool, by which we undertake a
thematic analysis. The study does not only trumpet pragmatic measures promulgated by the
authors but also aims at opening the victims’ horizons, discouraging social injustice thus
molding the socio–political fibers of post-Independent Africa in order to foster progress in
peace and stability for a better future for humanity .

▼ Sexual aggression researchers have struggled to find a specific profile of individuals likely to become sexually aggressive (Abbey, 2005). As most of the research has focused on internal personal characteristics, some researchers have called for more research into external or situational factors that may increase the likelihood for men to become sexual perpetrators (Farris, Viken & Treat, 2010). Thus, the current investigation sought to explore the impact of two promising external factors, sexually objectifying media and social threat, on sexual coercion proclivity. Sexual coercion is a much lesser studied form of sexual aggression but is very common and often normalized in U.S. culture (Testa & Derman, 1999). Additionally, narcissism was explored as an impacting factor because narcissists have been shown to compensate with increased aggression upon social threat (Stucke & Sporer, 2002; Konrath et al., 2006). Participants included 299 heterosexual men ages 18 â 35 years who were recruited over Amazon Mechanical Turk and exposed to sexually objectifying music videos and a social threat condition, Cyberball, before answering questions about their likelihood to engage in sexual coercion. It was found that these external factors did not increase sexual coercion proclivity. Men higher in narcissistic characteristics showed higher sexual coercion proclivity, but there was minimal support suggesting that narcissists respond in a compensatory manner to social threat with increased sexual coercion. Recommendations for future research include studying both proximal and distal factors and designing more ecological studies to truly understand the complex nature of sexual coercion.

▼ Previous research has found that
ostracism (being excluded or ignored by others) can cause deleterious effects to one's sense of belonging, control, meaningfulness of life and self-esteem, as well as increasing negative moods. Exclusion has been studied using several methodologies including Cyberball and the Life-Alone task. Additionally, research has demonstrated that individuals react more aggressively following an
ostracism event as compared to an inclusion event. Other research finds that ostracized individuals have greater accessibility for aggressive words, and negative self-descriptive words as compared to individuals who are included. These domains have not, however, been explored together to examine how these concepts may interact. Consequently, there is a need for research regarding the relationship between accessibility of concepts following
ostracism and how the changes in accessibility relate to the likelihood of aggressive behavior. It was hypothesized that when excluded, either by the Cyberball or the Life-Alone task, participants would demonstrate greater accessibility (measured via reaction time) for weapon words and negative-self descriptive words , as well as slower reaction times to positive inclusion words ) and positive self-descriptive words. The Cyberball task and Life-Alone task were each used to explore whether increased aggressiveness toward other participants would be seen when the other "participant" (a confederate) had an active role in the exclusion (Cyberball) or when the other participant was merely a bystander to the exclusion (Life-Alone). Experiment 1 found that excluded participants (compared to included participants) had lowered feelings of belonging, control, self-esteem, and that life has meaning. Excluded participants also administered significantly greater amounts of hot sauce than included participants. In Experiment 2, excluded participants (compared to included or control conditions) were significantly faster at identifying negative self-descriptive words, had significantly higher levels of rejection anxiety, and administered significantly greater amounts of hot sauce to another participant. The present research can help explain the aggressive responses seen in real-world cases of exclusion, and why victims of exclusion act aggressively toward both the perpetrators of the exclusion, as well as innocent bystanders who have no direct role in the exclusion.

▼ Ostracism is among vastly researched and discussed psychological phenomena that have been discussed in the workplace context vastly for three decades. As the severity of the issue, employees usually let the discrimination go unnoticed and therefore the cases are not reported. To understand the underlying factors that can result in its initiation, the study examines the factors that cause ostracism. The study explores the contextual environment and the factors that influence or stop the effects of ostracism in the working environment. Moreover, the study argues on the personal outcomes factors which can be the result of stressful working culture and additional workload. The study also explores how different working environment, such as employment opportunity and power distance have a role to play in this scenario. To test the study, the data was collected from the employees and supervisors of the departmental stores in Pakistan and Sweden. The number of respondents for the data was 480 (in total after data screening). As the study had multi structural model, therefore the data was testes with Confirmatory factor analysis and Structural Equation Modelling to measure the effect of different variables on the respondents. The study reveals that the factors reveal the significant effect on the employees of service industries and it results in having negative effects on psychological and health factors of an employee. It also reveals that when these issues are not resolved, employees often intend to leave the organization voluntarily not to be ostracised. Furthermore, the study also discovered insignificant results within the context of employment opportunity due to the spread of the Corona Virus Pandemic (COVID-19). The employees could not be certain about the employment opportunity in the service industry. The study suggests that it is important for services firms especially departmental stores to develop a supportive environment for the employees and allow them to fulfil their need for belongingness by performing better at the workplace.

Ostracism and Antisocial Behavior: The Role of Perceived Justice, Entitlement, and Anger.

▼ Recent research has demonstrated that antisocial behavior following a general
ostracism experience is mediated by increased feelings of entitlement (Poon, Chen, & DeWall, 2013) and anger (Chow, Tiedens, & Govan, 2008). However, this prior research has failed to determine whether
ostracism in general leads to antisocial behavior, or only
ostracism that is perceived of as unfair or unjust. The purpose of the current study was to manipulate the perceived fairness of the
ostracism experience (fair or unfair) and assess participants’ antisocial behavioral intentions (i.e., dishonest intentions). It was hypothesized that an unfair
ostracism experience (compared to a fair
ostracism or control experience) would lead to more antisocial behavior, specifically dishonest behavioral intentions, which would be mediated by increased feelings of anger and entitlement. In two studies, participants completed an essay task to prime an
ostracism experience (fair or unfair) or a negative control experience on a between-participants basis, and then completed measures assessing their sense of entitlement, feelings of anger, and likelihood of behaving dishonestly. Contrary to our hypotheses, unjust
ostracism participants did not report greater dishonest behavioral intentions, anger, or sense of entitlement compared to just
ostracism and control participants. Interestingly, however, Study 1 found that
just ostracism may actually decrease dishonest intentions and Study 2 demonstrated that
ostracism, in general, results in an increase in other-directed, but not self-directed, anger. We provide potential theoretical explanations for our unsupported predictions as well as unanticipated significant findings.

▼ Being ostracized by others is distressing and painful. Previous research suggests that ostracism creates a need to re-affiliate with new potential interaction partners, and that successful re-affiliation can alleviate distress caused by being ostracized. As eye contact is an important cue indicating willingness for social interaction, it could reduce the adverse effects of ostracism. In this study, participants were randomly assigned to be either included or excluded in a virtual ball-tossing game Cyberball, after which they were shown a one-minute video of a person with either direct or downward gaze. Participants' mood, pain and satisfaction of basic social needs were measured right after the game (reflexive stage) and after the video (reflective stage). The main hypothesis was that, among participants ostracized in the game, seeing a video portraying a person with direct gaze would facilitate recovery of basic needs, mood, and social pain more than seeing a video of a person with downward gaze. However, while ostracized participants showed recovery in the reflective stage, the recovery was not differently moderated by the gaze direction in the video. In fact, ostracized participants had completely recovered by the reflective stage. Thus, the hypothesis was not supported. However, because the complete recovery of ostracized participants may have been due to distraction caused by the video viewing task, the hypothesis could not be refuted either. These results may have implications on how ostracism and recovery from ostracism should be studied in the future. The results also showed that ostracism and eye gaze together may influence public self-awareness. Personal characteristics did not have an impact on the outcomes of ostracism, except global self-esteem, which buffered against social pain.

Expanding the Concept of Perceived Burdensomeness: The Relationship Between Burden, Ostracism, and Pain.

▼ Perceived burdensomeness (PB) is a real or imagined perception of being a burden to others, and is related to several negative outcomes, such as pain, depression, and suicide ideation. However, very little research has addressed the possible link between PB and pain. In the current proposal, we take a multi-disciplinary approach to investigate whether and why PB leads to pain; we propose that anticipated
ostracism may explain this link. 262 participants completed an online study in which they were asked to recall an experience in which they were either burdensome to others (burdensome condition) or contribute equally to others (control condition) during a group task. In general, participants in the burdensome condition experienced more perceived burdensomeness, social pain, negative affect, and depressive symptoms than participants in the control condition. We also found evidence to suggest anticipated
ostracism may partially explain the relationship between PB and pain. In addition, individuals with highly interdependent self-construal were more likely to perceive themselves as burdensome to others. Anticipated
ostracism may be a modifiable mechanism practitioners can target in order to reduce negative outcomes including pain. Future research should examine the intricacies of the pain experience for those who perceive themselves as burdensome to others.

▼ Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)
This study examined effects of ostracism on psychological well-being and self-control and the roles of the personality traits hope, optimism, and forgiveness as moderators of these effects. Undergraduate students (N=104) were randomly assigned to be included or excluded in a computerized ball-toss game, Cyberball. Facets of psychological well-being examined included belonging and self-esteem. Participants also completed cognitive and physical self-control measures via tracing and handgrip tasks. Ostracized participants experienced less belonging, but there was no significant difference between groups on self-esteem. Ostracized participants persisted for less time on the tracing task. There were no significant differences between groups for performance on the handgrip task. None of the personality traits were found to moderate the effects of ostracism on psychological well-being or self-control. Results are discussed in terms of implications and recommendations for future researchers.

▼ Ostracism, the process of socially ignoring and excluding certain people, has attracted attention in recent years. Most studies have looked at full ostracism, in other words, when everyone in a group ignores a person. However, in real life, people are usually only partially ostracized – excluded by some members of a group and not by others. The present study is one of the first to provide an in-depth examination of reactions when different forms of partial ostracism occur in a group. It looks at partial ostracism in a field study and an experimental study. In the field study I proposed that because targets of partial ostracism receive mixed signals from their group, it is easier for them to interpret ostracism as an external event rather than internal; whereas in full ostracism because all the signs received by the target are the same, the target cannot interpret the act of ostracism in different ways. The results of the field study indicate that partial ostracism is not only more common than full ostracism at work, but targets of partial ostracism also make fewer internal attributions than do targets of full ostracism. The experimental study examined two dimensions of partial ostracism: activity exclusion (AE) and people exclusion (PE). Results indicate that as AE increases, i.e. targets are excluded from more activities, targets make fewer internal attributions, feel more threats to their basic needs (mediated by internal attributions), and have more desire to help others. As PE increases, targets feel more threats to their needs and put less effort into group tasks. Comparing AE and PE simultaneously, AE makes a difference in targets’ well-being while PE affects targets’ efforts in group tasks

▼ Decision making forms an important part of our everyday lives and is commonly impaired after a severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). Past research examining decision making after TBI has relied on a non-social card playing game, the Iowa Gambling Task (Bechara, Damasio, Damasio, & Andersson, 1994), however, there is little evidence that this task is indicative of real-world social decision making capabilities. This thesis presents the development of an alternative, social decision making task. Study 1 contrasted social decision making (SDMT) with non-social decision making (IGT), revealing a dissociation between them. Performance on the SDMT was not associated with age, gender, intelligence or probability learning. Next, it was demonstrated that the SDMT is sensitive to severe TBI [Study 2 (a)], and that group differences are not simply the result of retracted learning in those with TBI [Study 2 (b)]. Study 3 revealed that impairments in social decision making, as indexed by the novel task, are related to disorders of drive, reversal learning, and theory of mind (trend). This attests to the construct validity of the SDMT, and suggests that the ability to process relevant social cues, and use this information to guide future behaviour, is essential for successful social decision making. In order to further examine whether adults with TBI were sensitive to social feedback, a different ball-tossing paradigm (Cyberball: Williams, Cheung, & Choi, 2000) was employed to create the experience of social exclusion. Studies 4-6 demonstrated that adults with TBI experience the negative psychological effects of
ostracism, albeit less than control participants (Study 5), and experience a different physiological response to controls (Study 6 - trend). Abnormal physiological responses to this experience may have implications for whether individuals with TBI engage in pro-social or antisocial behaviours in response to social isolation (Studies 4 and 6). Overall, this investigation provides evidence for the utility of a novel task for assessing decision making in social contexts following TBI. Examining the determinants of poor social decision making, as well as the role of physiological markers in responding to social cues, provides a significant contribution to the literature on social cognition. The importance of these findings is magnified by the incidence of mental illness in adults with TBI, and the understanding of the role of social isolation in this process.

▼ Humans, like many animals, are social beings. The denial of social interaction though exclusion has many adverse psychological effects, which can lead to physical and mental health consequences. In this thesis the phenomenon of
ostracism (i.e., being ignored and excluded, often without an explicit causal declaration) was investigated, which was induced by the computer ball-toss game Cyberball. There were two primary aims of the experiments described in this thesis. The first was to explore attention changes following
ostracism. Attention was measured for the personally meaningful threat of the source (i.e., perpetrator) following
ostracism, using eyetracking and a facial Stroop task. In addition, eyetracking was used to measure participant‟s attention during
ostracism, both for the sources and for themselves (i.e., desire for self-awareness). The results showed that when attention was measured by eyetracking, being ostracised led participants to avoid both the sources and themselves upon initial detection that
ostracism was occurring. Attention for the sources recovered by the end of Cyberball while avoidance of self persisted. There was no effect of being ostracised on attention for sources following the conclusion of
ostracism when measured by eyetracking. However, when attention was measured using the facial Stroop task, targets (i.e., victims) of
ostracism remained hypervigilant towards the personally meaningful threat of the source, but not other threat stimuli.The second primary aim was to investigate whether prior and subsequent experiences of inclusion would reduce the aversive impact of
ostracism. Specifically, the potential ameliorative effect of inclusion following
ostracism and the potential protective benefit of inclusion prior to
ostracism were examined. Further, the potential additive effects of two episodes of
ostracism were also investigated. Regardless of whether participants thought that the sources in the second game were the same people as game 1, different people, or computer controlled, an ameliorative effect and no protective benefit was found for inclusion. Therefore, inclusion is a potential strategy for reducing the aversive impact of
ostracism, but only if inclusion occurs after
ostracism. In addition, there was only limited evidence that two episodes of
ostracism had additive aversive effects. Potential clinical implications of these findings are explored.

▼ I extend work on behavioral ethics by proposing that there can be unfavorable consequences to ethical behavior. Drawing on social comparison theory (Festinger, 1954), I find that employees experience self-threat and self-enhancement as a result of ethical behavior comparisons. A lab study and a field study were paired to test the theoretical model. In the field, data from 310 employee-coworker dyads reveals that employees who report being more ethical than a comparison coworker experience more self-threat and more self-enhancement. These relationships are moderated by a performance comparison with the same coworker. Results also reveal that ethical behavior comparisons are indirectly related to social undermining and
ostracism via self-threat. Thus, when employees experience self-threat as a result of an ethical behavior comparison, they are likely to respond by socially undermining and/or ostracizing the coworker with whom they compared themselves. This mediated relationship is also impacted by the moderating presence of a performance comparison. Implications, both theoretical and practical, as well as suggestions for future research are discussed.

Minding the Reflexive Stage of the Temporal Need-Threat
Model: State and Trait Mindfulness as Moderators of the Immediate

▼ Social exclusion or
ostracism is a common and
universally distressing phenomenon that elicits a “social pain”
response that is neurologically similar to a physical pain response
(Eisenberger, 2015; Hartgerink et al., 2015; Nezlek et al., 2012).
The temporal need-threat model posits that individuals respond to
social exclusion in three successive stages. The reflexive stage is
characterized by an immediate, brief, reflex-like reaction to
social exclusion. The reflexive stage is followed by reflective and
resignation stages, which are characterized by shorter- and
longer-term reactions to social exclusion (Williams, 2001). The
purpose of the current study was to evaluate whether a brief
mindful meditation exercise lessens the immediate, reflexive
negative effects of being socially excluded while playing
Cyberball. The impact of trait mindfulness and the “Big Five”
personality traits on the immediate negative effects of being
socially excluded were also examined. Sixty-five undergraduate
participants were recruited and randomly assigned to a mindful
breathing intervention group or an educational video control group.
Participants were also randomly assigned to Cyberball inclusion or
Cyberball exclusion conditions. Participants completed multiple
state and trait mindfulness measures, the Big Five Inventory (BFI;
John & Srivastava, 1999), and the Need Threat Scale (Williams,
2009). During the Cyberball procedure, participants’ moods were
rated at eight time points; thus, the trajectories of participants’
moods were tracked during Cyberball. Growth curve modeling found no
significant differences in the linear or quadratic growth rates of
mood ratings between participants in the mindful breathing and
video control groups. Growth curve modeling also found no
significant differences in the linear or quadratic growth rates of
mood ratings between participants designated higher in trait
mindfulness and lower in trait mindfulness. These findings suggest
that state and trait mindfulness do not moderate the immediate,
reflex-like responses to social exclusion and add further evidence
in support of the reflexive stage of the temporal need-threat
model.

▼ The present study investigated individual differences in the relation between
ostracism and self-regulation. Previous research shows that being excluded leads to reduced performance on tasks that require self-regulation. Self-regulation deficits have been linked to many mental health issues, including depression. According to the diathesis-stress theory, depression results from pre-existing vulnerabilities combined with stressful events. Two vulnerabilities to depression are the personality variables sociotropy and autonomy, characterized by high levels of interpersonal dependence and autonomy/achievement, respectively. In this study it was predicted that those high in sociotropy would show greater self-regulation deficits after experiencing
ostracism, while those high in autonomy would experience a buffering effect. Participants played a game called Cyberball that includes or excludes the player. They then completed a measure of self-regulation. Results show that sociotropy moderated the relation between
ostracism and cookies eaten. This suggests that individuals overly invested in interpersonal relationships react differently to
ostracism.

▼ One behavioral consequence of
ostracism is to seek and strengthen connections with others. The current research tests whether a brief episode of
ostracism by strangers strengthens targeted individuals' perceptions of their romantic relationship and increases their desire to be closer to their partner. In Study 1a and Study 1b, participants were either included or ostracized by strangers in a Cyberball game, and then completed relationship evaluation measures. Interactions of
ostracism and gender emerged, suggesting that as hypothesized, ostracized women tended to evaluate their relationships more positively than included women. However, men who were ostracized tended to evaluate their relationships less positively than those who were included. Study 2 followed similar procedure, and explored control and belonging need-threat and mood as potential mediators, as well as the value of these needs and endorsement of social goals (agentic vs. communal) that may account for this divergent effect of
ostracism and gender on relationship evaluations. The Gender X
Ostracism interaction was not replicated; however, mediation analyses revealed that threatened-control led ostracized women to perceive their relationship as closer and to desire closeness, and negative mood led ostracized men to be less satisfied with their relationships.

▼ Disparities between African Americans and Caucasians remain vast across a wide variety of health indicators. Chronic stress has been identified as a risk factor for a variety of chronic illnesses and poor health outcomes. One type of chronic stress that has been linked to health disparities is the stress associated with experiences of racial discrimination. The stress African Americans encounter as a result of their racist experiences contributes to a chronic elevation of their physiological stress response. In addition to stress, a major risk factor for coronary heart disease and diabetes is obesity, which has been established as a major health problem in the United States. Obesity in African American women tends to be the result of psychosocial, behavioral, cultural, and environmental factors, among others. The purpose of this dissertation was to investigate possible psychosocial contributions of racism-related stress and the eating behaviors of African American women to their high rates of obesity. Thus, this study was designed to link survey research demonstrating racial discrimination as a stressor with negative effects on health behaviors and outcomes in African Americans with laboratory studies demonstrating how stress produces binge eating among individuals who typically try to restrain their eating. A number of hypotheses guided this two-part study, which followed a 2 (Eating Style: Restrained vs. Unrestrained Eating) x 2 (
Ostracism: Inclusion vs. Exclusion) x 2 (Reference Group: Outgroup vs. Ingroup) design. Three hundred nineteen women participated in Study 1 where they completed questionnaires on their eating behaviors and racist experiences, and 124 of those women participated in the lab portion, Study 2, where they ate snacks as they engaged in an online social interaction with 3 other participants. Results indicate that although the in-lab manipulated experience of discrimination had numerous detrimental effects on psychological well-being, it did not influence the amount of food participants ate in the laboratory. Although many of the hypotheses were not supported, this study may provide procedural precedence for future restrained or emotional eating, racial microaggressions, or social
ostracism studies. Results from this study also suggest several useful implications for obesity treatment and prevention programs.

▼ Auf der Grundlage sozial-, entwicklungs- und persönlichkeitspsychologischer
Theorien, widmete sich die vorliegende Dissertation in mehreren empirischen
Studien der Untersuchung von Peerbeziehungen im Jugendalter. Insbesondere war
es das Ziel dieser Arbeit, Erkenntnisse hinsichtlich der Ursachen und
Auswirkungen sozialer Integration und Isolation zu gewinnen. Zur Illuminierung
dieser Fragestellungen wurde ein multimethodologisches Design angewendet:
Mithilfe sozialer Netzwerkanalysen sowie experimentalpsychologischer
Untersuchungen wurden in drei aufeinander aufbauenden Studien Befunde
gesammelt, welche den bisherigen Forschungsstand theoretisch und empirisch
bereicherten. In Studie 1 wurde mithilfe der sozialen Netzwerkanalyse die
Ursachen sozialer Integration an einer Stichprobe von 317 Jugendlichen
beleuchtet. In mehrebenenanalytischer Auswertung resultierte, dass in erster
Linie soziale Fähigkeiten eine prädiktive Kraft für die Vorhersage der
sozialen Eingebundenheit im Klassenverband haben. Allerdings wird dieser
individuelle Effekt vom äquivalent Kollektiven überstrahlt, d.h. sobald die
aggregierten sozialen Fähigkeiten der Peergruppe auf Ebene zwei hinzugefügt
werden, wird dieser Effekt auf Kosten des individuellen Zusammenhangs
signifikant. Dieser Befund verdeutlicht die Bedeutung adaptiver
Peerbeziehungen im Jugendalter, da—im Gegensatz zur gängigen Vorstellung des
social-skill-deficit models—geringe soziale Fähigkeiten nicht notwendigerweise
mit geringer sozialer Integration einhergehen müssen, sofern Jugendliche mit
sozial fähigen Gleichaltrigen befreundet sind. In Studie 2 wurde der Frage
nachgegangen, inwiefern das Ausmaß sozialer Eingebundenheit eine
Vorhersagekraft für die Ausprägung psychosozialer Fähigkeiten, im Spezifischen
Empathie, besitzt. Diese Fragestellung basierte auf der Annahme, dass
steigende soziale Integration mit zunehmenden sozialen Herausforderungen
einhergeht, wie beispielsweise Regulation von Konflikten im Klassenverband
oder Bereitstellung von sozialer Unterstützung, was wiederum in einer
Verbesserung des sozialen Verständnisses resultiert. An einer Stichprobe von
über 3.000 Schülern aus über 160 Schulklassen wurde nach der Auswertung
sozialer Netze in einem Vier-Ebenen-Random-Intercept-Random-Slope-Modell
dieser Zusammenhang unter Kontrolle diverser Störvariablen bestätigt. Dieser
Studie legt die Vermutung nahe, dass die Ausprägung sozialer Eingebundenheit
eine notwendige Voraussetzung für eine adaptive Entwicklung und die
Herausbildung psychosozialer Fähigkeiten im Jugendalter ist. In Studie 3 wurde
in zwei experimentellen Untersuchungen die Wahrnehmung von und der Umgang mit
sozialen Ausschluss untersucht. In der ersten Teilstudie wurden in über 90
Einzelfallexperimenten beweisen, dass virtueller Kurzzeitausschluss sowohl als
emotional aversiv erlebt wird, als auch aufgrund motivationaler Mechanismen
kognitive Regulationsprozesse in Gang setzt, welche die Basis sozialer
Reintegration schaffen. In der zweiten Teilstudie wurde mithilfe einer
programmierten Modifikation des…
