“…There is a feeling of emotional relief once everyone pays attention to one of the members in the tagay. This supported the findings of Törrönen and Maunu (2011) and other scholars (Creswell et al, 2012;Carrigan et al, 2009;Keenan et al, 2015;Tingey et al, 2016;Walker & Bridgman, 2013) that in drinking, emotions are embodied in the management of friendship.…”

“…Several scholars accentuate the prizing of drinkers' social bonding together with human motivation and behavior in drinking with reciprocal social norm (Creswell, Sayette, Manuck, Ferrell, Hill & Dimoff, 2012;Carrigan, Lindridge, MacAskill, Eadie, Gordon & Heim, 2009;Keenan, Saburova, Borova, Elbourne, Ashwin & Leon, 2015;Tingey, Cwik, Chambers, Goklish, Larzelere-Hinton, Suttle, Lee, Alchesay, Parker & Barlow, 2016;Walker & Bridgman, 2013). In the past, drinking was a primal motivation of Genghis Khan's success, as a mighty conqueror of Eastern Europe and Asia in the early 13 th century to build the mighty Mongol empire (de Hartog, 1989).…”

Exploring the indigenous Cebuano cultural practices contextualizes a culture-based Cooperative Learning (CL) strategy. The study explored the socio-cultural background of Cebuano cooperation as reflected in the communal practices of the tagay, alayon, yayong, tambayayong, and unong (TAYTU); the process of localized cooperative learning strategies contextualized in the TAYTU; designing lesson exemplars in the TAYTU way. This qualitative study used a directive content analysis design using relevant research findings and initial codes that serve as bases of future projections, as a form of trend studies in CL strategies. The exploratory design was used to provide visualization of TAYTU exemplars. FGDs were conducted among the 60 research participants: alayon farmers (20), tambayayong fishermen (20) and male-drinkers (20), using enumeration sampling and inclusion criteria to establish the socio-cultural background of the study. The indigenous identities of the Cebuano cultural practices bridge a potential exploration of the localized and contextualized CL strategies in realizing the noble aim of malasakit in the Philippines' AmBisyon Natin 2040. Catharsis in tagay; togetherness and unity of command in alayon; sensibility and sensitivity in yayong; sharing of extreme emotions in tambayayong; and intimacy and solidarity in unong featured a socio-cultural background necessitated in the crafting of the TAYTU Models of CL Teaching exemplars.

“…The target population for this study is younger US hospitality and tourism employees. We adopted 55 and younger as a criterion to define a “younger employee” as other existing research does (Walker and Bridgman, 2013). Therefore, we used screening questions to include participants who met the three criteria: US hospitality and tourism employees; between 18 and 55 years; and working with older people. …”

Purpose This study aims to investigate the impacts of pandemic-related media coverage on younger hospitality and tourism employees’ ageist attitudes toward older people by applying the media priming theory and the terror management theory. Design/methodology/approach This study takes a mixed-method approach through an online survey. A total of 416 usable responses are collected from current US hospitality and tourism employees under 55 years. Qualitative data were analyzed using word cloud. Partial least squares structural equation modeling is then used to test the hypothesized model. Findings The study’s results show that younger employees' cognitive reaction negatively affects aging anxiety and intergenerational tension, which subsequently influence their willingness to work with older people. Negative media-induced emotions are positively associated with aging anxiety, whereas positive emotions exert no significant impact. Intergenerational contact frequency moderates the effect of intergenerational tension on younger employees’ willingness to work with older people. Research limitations/implications This study’s findings contribute to the hospitality and tourism workforce literature by considering the priming effects of media coverage on younger employees’ attitudes toward self-aging and the older group. This study also offers managerial insights on developing effective age-inclusion interventions to reduce workplace ageism in the post-pandemic era. Originality/value Existing hospitality and tourism studies on older workers are scant and largely descriptive. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this study is the first study that assesses the effects of pandemic-related media coverage on workplace ageism toward older people among the current hospitality and tourism workforce.

“…Researchers have explored identity from a variety of ontological and epistemological standpoints (Alvesson et al, 2008), and in relation to many "targets," such as organizations (Ashforth et al, 2008;Lee et al, 2015), work teams (Van Der Vegt & Bunderson, 2005), relationships (Sluss & Ashforth, 2007, 2008, specific individuals (Ashforth et al, 2016), and professions (Ibarra, 1999;Pratt et al, 2006). The work-related consequences of identities have also been a popular focus, with scholars linking identity to outcomes such as organizational citizenship behavior , motivation (van Knippenberg, 2000), reactions to justice failure (Zhu et al, 2012), creativity (Hirst et al, 2009), and even employees' use of alcohol (Walker & Bridgman, 2013).…”

For decades, scholars in organizational and social psychology have distinguished between two types of identity: social and personal. To what extent, though, is this dichotomy useful for understanding identities and their dynamics, and might a different approach facilitate deeper insight? Such are the guiding questions of this article. I begin by reviewing framings of the social/personal identity dichotomy in organizational psychology, and tracing its origins and evolution in social psychology. I then evaluate the strengths and limitations of this dichotomy as a tool for understanding identities. In an attempt to retain the dichotomy’s strengths and overcome its limitations, I present a modified conceptualization of the social and personal dimensions of identity, one that defines these dimensions based on psychological experience (not identity content), and treats them as two independent continua (not two levels of a dichotomy, or opposing ends of a continuum) that any given identity varies along across contexts. Plain language summary A single person can identify with lots of different aspects of their life: their family, community, job, and hobbies, to name but a few. In the same way it helps to group different items in a shop into sections, it can be helpful to group the different identities available to people into categories. And for a long time, this is what researchers have done: calling certain identities “social identities” if based on things like race and culture, and “personal identities” if based on things like traits and habits. In this paper, I explain that for various reasons, this might not be the most accurate way of mapping identities. Instead of categorizing them based on where they come from, I suggest it’s more helpful to focus on how identities actually make people feel, and how these feelings change from one moment to the next. I also point out that many identities can make someone feel like a unique person and part of a broader group at the same time. For this reason, it’s best to think of the “social” and “personal” parts of an identity not as opposites—but simply different aspects of the same thing.
