“…Female is more likely to seek social support and to use emotion focused strategies than male (Carver et al, 1989;Ptacek, Smith, & Zanas, 1992;Stone & Neale, 1984). The performance of females reported using higher levels of seeking social support for emotional reasons and increasing effort (Peter & Thomas, 1995;Astor-Dubin & Hammen, 1984;Ptacek et al, 1992). Those findings are consistent with performance-related stress in sport that females and males cope differently.…”

By exploiting an unusually rich panel data set from the National Database of Student Athletes, this article addresses the issue of peer effects and superstar effects on performance in multi-stage swimming competitions. Four key findings are presented. First, the evidence from relay teams supports a positive inter-team peer effect from competitors in a male relay race, but a negative inter-team peer effect from competitors in a female relay race. Second, the evidence from both female and male relay teams shows that there exists a positive intra-team peer effect from teammates. In our estimations for female relay races, a foolish teammate does more harm (+3.11 seconds) than a brilliant opponent does good (+0.55 seconds) in the estimation of the Heckman Selection Model based on panel data. Third, a male team with average-quality swimmers performs better than a team with dispersed-quality swimmers. Fourth, for the super-team effects in these tournaments, on average, the female relay teams' (/male relay teams') times are approximately 2.85(/2.09) seconds faster/slower when the previous year's winning team participates.3 Brown (2011) provides a simple formal model of the effects of incentives and strategies created by the presence of a superstar in a professional sports setting.

“…However, women are more likely to engage in active-behavioural coping than men, i.e. they attempt to deal directly with the problem and its effects by taking positive action (Astor-Dubin and Hammen, 1984). Thus, although unemployed female managers may suffer from increased psychological and psychosomatic symptoms, they are more likely to deal with the problems of unemployment and job search than their male counterparts.…”

“…Thus, although unemployed female managers may suffer from increased psychological and psychosomatic symptoms, they are more likely to deal with the problems of unemployment and job search than their male counterparts. Women are more likely to engage in behaviours that involve external recognition, allowing others to label and offer help with their problems, whereas men tend to deal with their problems internally (Astor-Dubin and Hammen, 1984). Unemployed female managers, who are most likely to employ emotional-focused coping strategies, will have to deal with expectations and goals of significant others in conjunction with their own objectives.…”

This paper presents a multifaceted approach to unemployment stress experienced by male and female managers, in the form of a literature review and comparative research model. In order to develop a working model which can be applied to both male and female managers, the paper covers a substantial range of the literature pertaining to the processes and effects of unemployment for managers. Previous studies often provide conflicting data which generally results from differential approaches taken to the study of unemployment. In addition, it is important to note that the majority of studies focus on blue‐collar male workers and that the vast majority are based on a male model of work. The proposed model highlights sources of stress, moderators of stress and stress outcomes that may affect unemployed managers, and distinguishes areas in which gender differences are likely to be found. However, these differences are only hypothesized from the current literature and require in‐depth research if they are to be fully understood.

“…Among the coping dimensions that have been explored are: Problem-focused v. Emotion-focused [2]; Active v. Passive [3]; Cognitive v. Behavioral [4] and Approach v. Avoidant [5]. The number of dimensions seems bounded only by the imaginations of the various researchers involved.…”
