“…This point is consistent with previous research by Hogg and his colleagues (e.g. Hogg, Cooper-Shaw and Holzworth, 1993;Hogg and Hardie, 1991) indicating that when judgement occurs in a group-based context, liking for and agreement with specific individuals (e.g., members of a football team; Hogg and Hardie, 1991) is not determined by their qualities as individuals but is a function of the degree to which they embody group norms (cf Turner, 1987, p. 57). The present results thus extend Hogg's (1 992,p.…”

“…Salience is important because individuals are more likely to identify with a salient characteristic, and identification with a characteristic generates positive affect for in-group members (Hogg and Turner 1985;Hogg and Hardie 1991;Hogg 1992Hogg , 1993Hogg and Hains 1996;Grieve and Hogg 1999).…”

Models of network formation emphasize the importance of social similarity and propinquity in producing strong interpersonal connections. The positive effect each factor can have on tie strength has been documented across a number of studies. And yet we know surprisingly very little about how the two factors combine to produce strong ties. Being in close proximity could either amplify or dampen the positive effect that social similarity can have on tie strength. Data on tie strength among teachers working in five public schools was analyzed to shed light on this theoretical question. The empirical results indicated that teachers who were similar in age were more likely to be connected by a strong tie, especially teachers for whom age similarity was more likely to be salient. Moreover, teachers who took breaks at the same time or who had classrooms on the same floor communicated more frequently and felt more emotionally attached. Among the public school teachers, propinquity amplified the positive effect that age similarity had on tie strength. The strongest network connections occurred among age-similar teachers who had classrooms on the same floor. The empirical results illustrate the value of considering how social similarity and propinquity contribute to strong ties independently and when combined with each other.

“…Using the social identity framework, Hogg and colleagues (Hogg, 1992(Hogg, , 1993Hogg & Hardie, 1991), have drawn a distinction between personal and social attraction. Similarity of personal interests, attitudes and values is the primary basis for personal attraction.…”

Nutzungsbedingungen Prashant Bordia University of South AustraliaThis study examined the role of team identification in the dissimilarity and conflict relationship. We tested competing predictions that team identification would either mediate or moderate the positive associations between visible (age, gender and ethnic background), professional (background) and value dissimilarity and task and relationship conflict. Data was collected from 27 MBA student teams twice during a semester. Multilevel modelling and a longitudinal design were used. Results showed that value dissimilarity was positively associated with task and relationship conflict at Time 2. Its effects on relationship conflict at Time 1 were moderated by team identification. Team identification also moderated the effects of gender, age and ethnic dissimilarity on task conflict at Time 2, and the effects of gender and professional dissimilarity on relationship conflict at Time 2. No support was obtained for the mediating role of team identification on the associations between dissimilarity and conflict, or for changes in the effects of dissimilarity over time.keywords conflict, dissimilarity, identification OVER the last decade, there have been numerous studies examining the impact of diversity upon conflict within work teams
