Navigating Multiple Identities: The Simultaneous Influence of Advantaged and Disadvantaged Identities on Politicization and Activism
No full textMost identity-based models of activism assume that action is motivated either by a disadvantaged identity (predicting own-group activism), or a feeling of solidarity with disadvantaged groups (predicting ally activism). They do not account for advantaged and disadvantaged identifications within the same person. Yet many activists have both advantaged and disadvantaged identities. Two interview studies from Hungary and the United States (N = 47) were used to examine how both disadvantaged and advantaged identities influence politicization and activism (both own-group and ally), via both direct and indirect experiences of marginalization and privilege. We also discuss the emergence of new identities from activist engagements and how such new activist identities recursively influence activism and politicization. We conclude our analysis by arguing that identity-based organizations may be more successful emphasizing multiple and intersecting identities and the structural aspects of disadvantages rather than singular disadvantaged identities

No full textIn this latest Advance & Rutgers Report, entitled “A Tripartite Post-Recession Rebalancing,” Dean James W. Hughes and Professor Joseph J. Seneca deliver an incisive assessment of the current market conditions and obstacles in the path of our economic recovery. They offer a statistical cautionary tale that the private and public sector need to hear and acknowledge in order for the economy to make continued progress.This report was published as Issue Paper Number 7, November 2011, in Advance & Rutgers Report
Evidence for the decay B0→J/ψω and measurement of the relative branching fractions of meson decays to J/ψη and J/ψη′
Get PDFFirst evidence of the B 0 → J / ψ ω decay is found and the B s 0 → J / ψ η and B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ decays are studied using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb -1 collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. The branching fractions of these decays are measured relative to that of the B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0 decay:frac(B (B 0 → J / ψ ω), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 0.89 ± 0.19 (stat) - 0.13 + 0.07 (syst),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 14.0 ± 1.2 (stat) - 1.5 + 1.1 (syst) - 1.0 + 1.1 (frac(f d, f s)),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 12.7 ± 1.1 (stat) - 1.3 + 0.5 (syst) - 0.9 + 1.0 (frac(f d, f s)), where the last uncertainty is due to the knowledge of f d / f s, the ratio of b-quark hadronization factors that accounts for the different production rate of B 0 and B s 0 mesons. The ratio of the branching fractions of B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ and B s 0 → J / ψ η decays is measured to befrac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B s 0 → J / ψ η)) = 0.90 ± 0.09 (stat) - 0.02 + 0.06 (syst)
The role of minority discrimination and political participation in shaping majority perceptions of discrimination: Two cross-national studies

The role of minority discrimination and political participation in shaping majority perceptions of discrimination: Two cross-national studies. Group Processes & Intergroup Relations, 13684302221075712. https://doi.org/10.1177/13684302221075711
Abstract
We develop a minority influence approach to multilevel intergroup research and examine whether
country-level minority norms shape majority members’ perceptions of discrimination. Defining
minority norms via actual minority discrimination and political participation, we hypothesized that
in national contexts with greater minority experiences of discrimination and greater minority political
participation, majority perceptions of discrimination should be higher. We implemented two crossnational
multilevel studies drawing on the European Social Survey and Eurobarometer data with
19,392 participants in 22 countries in Study 1, and with 17,651 participants in 19 countries in Study
2. Higher aggregate levels of minority discrimination were not related to greater acknowledgment of
discrimination among majority members. However, higher aggregate minority political participation
did relate to higher perceptions of discrimination in Studies 1 and 2. We conclude that countrylevel
minority norms are consequential for majority attitudes, but these norms need to be actively
communicated through political participation
Past and Present Intergroup Contact and Conflict in Mixed Villages of Cyprus: The Role of Individual and Collective Experiences in Predicting Intergroup Attitudes and Trust

Past and Present Intergroup Contact and Conflict Among Inhabitants of Former Mixed Villages of Cyprus: The Role of Individual and Collective Experiences in Predicting Attitudes and Trust. Political Psychology. https://doi.org/10.1111/pops.12791
Abstract
Positive attitudes and trust towards former adversaries facilitate reconciliation and peacebuilding. Both historical and current intergroup experiences such as intergroup contact and conflict predict intergroup attitudes and trust but no previous research has investigated the joint effects of these experiences. Therefore, we investigate the interplay of positive intergroup contact preceding conflict, negative experiences of the conflict itself, and positive intergroup contact following conflict. Drawing on social representations theory, we highlight the importance of both individual and collective experiences. We examine the effects of such experiences on intergroup attitudes and trust among a representative sample of Greek Cypriots (N = 802) and Turkish Cypriots (N = 718) from 54 formerly ethnically mixed villages in the context of a protracted and frozen conflict in Cyprus. Present-day individual contact relates to more positive attitudes and higher trust regardless of past experiences of conflict or contact. Furthermore, past collective contact experiences predict more positive attitudes and higher trust, whereas past collective conflict experiences predict more negative attitudes and lower trust. Finally, past and present contact-effects are additive: present-day contact closes the gap in trust between respondents with low and high past contact. Overall, both current and historical, and individual and collective experiences matter
