“…“Racial stacking” refers to the channeling of players into roles or positions based on stereotypes regarding athleticism and intellectual ability (Coleman and Scott 2018). Racial stacking has been documented in men and women’s collegiate and professional sports including football, baseball, basketball, hockey, softball, and volleyball (Eitzen and Furst 1989; Eitzen and Sanford 1975; Hawkins 2002; Jamieson, Reel, and Gill 2002; Lewis 1995; Perchot et al 2016; Pitts and Yost 2013; Sack, Singh, and Thiel 2005; Siler 2019; Valentine 2012; Woodward 2004). Compared to White athletes, Black athletes tend to be channeled into positions characterized by lower visibility and status, higher physical demands and risk, and fewer opportunities for leadership on and off the field (Sailes 2017).…”

As highly visible organizations, professional sports teams provide a context to examine the reproduction of racial hierarchies over time. This study analyzes racial segregation/integration in the NFL between 1960 and 2020. Using data from 20,357 players, we examine the racial composition of positions in the field and how these patterns influence career length. Our analysis reveals three distinct patterns of segregation/integration over time: cumulative hyper-segregation in high-risk positions, durable segregation in high-prestige positions, and integration in hybrid positions. We consider the implications of these findings for theory and research on racialized organizations as well as for the lives of players.

“…Every individual is potentially vulnerable to this threat. White people struggle athletically (Perchot, Mangin, Lacassagne, & Castel, 2017;Smith & Martiny, 2018), Black people struggle academically (e.g., Steele & Aronson, 1995), women struggle mathematically (e.g., Picho & Schmader, 2018) and spatially (McGlone & Aronson, 2006).…”

Understanding the influence of a contextual factor, stigma consciousness: a barrier for underrepresented students in engineering

The present study used Social Cognitive Career Theory (SCCT; Lent, Brown, & Hackett, 1994) to examine the influence of racial/ethnic stigma consciousness on persistence intention among 263 underrepresented racial/ethnic minority engineering students. Path analysis was used to test a model depicting relationships between contextual (i.e., racial/ethnic stigma consciousness, institution types) and person-cognitive (i.e., self-efficacy, positive and negative outcome expectations, persistence intention) variables as hypothesized in SCCT. Results indicated that both hypothesized indirect and direct structural models provided an excellent fit to the data, but the hypothesized indirect model showed better fit. Test of mediation was statistically significant for engineering self-efficacy, but not for positive and negative outcome expectations in the relations between racial/ethnic stigma consciousness and persistence intentions. Results of moderated mediation indicated a significant interaction of coping efficacy on racial/ethnic stigma consciousness on the indirect effect via engineering self-efficacy. A series of ANOVA and MANOVA were also conducted to determine whether demographic and contextual variables could explain racial/ethnic stigma consciousness, coping efficacy, and socio-cognitive variables (i.e., self-efficacy, positive and negative outcome expectations, persistence intentions) to pursue engineering degree. Suggestions for future research directions, clinical implications, and limitations are further provided.
