“How good are you in math?” The effect of gender stereotypes on students’ recollection of their school marks (2007, background): “Previous research suggests that self-stereotyping is a relatively automatic, “cold” cognitive process (i.e., not involving motivational or aVective factors), which can occur without attention or awareness (Onorato & Turner, 2001, 2004; Wheeler & Petty, 2001).”
Superordinate identities and intergroup conflict: The ingroup projection model (2007, background): “While there is evidence for selfstereotyping at the level of the individual (e.g., Onorato & Turner, 2004), we are not aware of any evidence so far for the corresponding process at the subgroup level.”
Does Character Similarity Increase Identification and Persuasion? (2018, background): “The self is fluid and there are various factors that determine which parts of our self are important at any given moment (e.g., McGuire & Padawer-Singer, 1976; Onorato & Turner, 2004) and, thus, what may be generally important may not always be salient.”
Spirituality in the Workplace: Theory and Measurement (2011, background): “When one level is highly salient as the working self-concept (Markus & Nurius, 1986; Markus & Wurf, 1987), other levels are relatively less important in determining individual behaviors (Ashforth & Johnson, 2001; Leary & Tangney, 2003; Onorato & Turner, 2004; Turner, Oakes, Haslam, & McGarty, 1994).”
The Relationship between Religious Identity and Preferred Coping Strategies: An Examination of the Relative Importance of Interpersonal and Intrapersonal Coping in Muslim and Christian Faiths (2010, background): “…or shame, whereas those with an independent self rather focus on “ego-focused” emotions such as anger, frustration or pride, which finally help to affirm the construal of the self as an autonomous entity (but see Onorato & Turner, 2004, for evidence of the context-dependence of these distinctions).”
Individual Self, Relational Self, Collective Self: Hierarchical Ordering of the Tripartite Self (2011, background): “In addition, research on self-categorization theory (Onorato and Turner 2004; Turner et al. 1994) suggests that self-definition fluctuates between the individual and collective self as a function of contextual features, with the collective self becoming salient in intergroup contexts and the…”
A Three-Tier Hierarchy of Self-Potency: Individual Self, Relational Self, Collective Self (2013, background): “This perspective stipulates that identity (or self-definition) fluctuates toward the individual self in interpersonal contexts and the collective self in intergroup contexts (metacontrast principle; Onorato & Turner, 2004; Turner et al., 1987, 1994).”
SOCIAL IDENTITY IN INDUSTRIAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY: CONCEPTS, CONTROVERSIES AND CONTRIBUTIONS (2006, background): “Most notably, it promotes a psychologized version of the theory that treats the structure of the self as fixed and static—which it is not (Onorato & Turner, 2004)—and it draws attention away from the structural and contextual dynamics that shape those psychological processes and which in turn…”
Interactionism in personality and social psychology: An integrated approach to understanding the mind and behaviour (2010, background): “Onorato and Turner (2004), for example, explored self-ratings in two different comparative contexts: as individuals, and as women compared to men in an intergroup context.”
