Using Experiential Learning to Increase the Recognition of Everyday Sexism as Harmful: The WAGES Intervention (2014, background): “Such recognition is critical for producing effective social change within organizations, in particular, increasing male allies and confronting behavior (e.g., Drury & Kaiser, 2014).”
Ways to Go: Men's and Women's Support for Aggressive and Nonaggressive Confrontation of Sexism as a Function of Gender Identification (2014, background): “Moreover, providing employees with information that men also support nonaggressive confrontation may encourage men to become allies in addressing sexism (e.g., Drury & Kaiser, 2014).”
How Does Intergroup Contact Affect Social Change? Its Impact on Collective Action and Individual Mobility Intentions among Members of a Disadvantaged Group (2015, background): “…like challenges to the status quo originating from members of the advantaged group, protest by socially mobile members of the disadvantaged group is more likely to be perceived as reflecting objective reality as they would not be direct beneficiaries of social change (cf., Drury & Kaiser, 2014).”
“We for She”: Mobilising men and women to act in solidarity for gender equality (2018, background): “Men occupy most positions of power and influence in society, they more readily fit the leader stereotype, and their involvement in reducing inequality is less likely to be seen as self-interested (B. Drury & Kaiser, 2014).”
Mixed Signals: The Unintended Effects of Diversity Initiatives (2019, background): “As allies are viewed as having less vested self-interest in remedying bias, their claims of bias are viewed as more credible than those of underrepresented groups (Drury & Kaiser, 2014).”
A Review of Organizational Strategies for Reducing Sexual Harassment: Insights from the U. S. Military (2014, background): “Drury and Kaiser (2014) suggest that men’s confrontations may be more impactful than women’s efforts to confront sexism because men are perceived as more legitimate due to the fact that they do not directly benefit from the reduction of sexism.”
