Social Power & Hierarchy
Social hierarchy
Implicit or explicit rank order of individuals with respect to a valued social dimension
Formal hierarchy
Explicit roles that vary by rank order, with higher ranking roles, holding greater value
Power = control over resources and deference from subordinates (status)
Ex - job titles, reporting structures
Informal hierarchy
Rank ordering of individuals that develops organically on at least one valued social dimension
Power = influence over group decisions and greater attention from others
Social power
Controlled over valued resources in social relations
Social status
The extent to which an individual is respected by others
We give more attention to higher ranked individuals
Hierarchical differentiation
Process through which individuals are sorted into rank ordered positions
Differentiation in formal hierarchies
Sorting is a dynamic problem b/c people can enter and leave the hierarchy
Individuals can move laterally or progress through the ranks
Differentiation in informal hierarchies
Differentiation develops spontaneously and rapidly
Based on behaviour within the first few minutes
Depends on which dimension is important to the group
Differentiation based on personality
Individuals achieve rank to the extent they represent the defining features of that group
Task oriented organization
Conscientiousness predicts rank
Socially oriented organization
Extraversion predicts rank
Differentiation based on group needs
Groups needing little coordination
Groups needing high coordination
Tentative speaking styles predict rank
Assertive speaking styles predict rank
Functions of hierarchy
Social order
Fulfills basic need for order and structure.
Coordinations
Creates differentiated roles
When hierarchy is unclear, work is confusing
Incentive
Provides motivation
High rank = material and psychological rewards
Hierarchy maintenance
Power transforms how an individual sees the world
Social power predicts speaking time and speaking out of turn
High power = low perspective taking abilities and emotion detection
Expect higher ranked people to be more competent, even without observing performance
Expectancy confirmation
Randomly assigned people to different positions - managers were still seen as more competent
Power approach theory
High power = focuses on attractive aspects of situations (rewards)
Low power = inhibition due to threat of losing favour (focus on punishment)
Noblesse oblige
Rich people should be generous to those without
Hierarchy enhancing beliefs
Social dominance orientation
Hierarchy is viewed as natural and inevitable
High in SDO = prefer inequality
Legitimizing myths
Accepted beliefs that provide rationale for the differential status of certain groups
Social Darwinism, meritocracy and cultural elitism (elite class deserves the finer things in life)
Hierarchy instability
Instability predicts prolonged hormonal stress
External change
Occurs through:
New environment
Different perceived value of previously valued resources
External shock
Events such as mergers b/w companies
Fairness and legitimacy
Fairness of resource allocation
Disparity b/w low and high rank
Legitimate when rank is determined by appropriate means and high ranks don't abuse power
Competition
Caused by upward social comparison
Status constraints
Reciprocity norm
People want to associate with people of high rank
If they don't return attention, lose interest
Status leakage
High status individuals lose power by being seen interacting with low status individuals
Low status get a greater boost in status
