Prosocial Behavior, Solidarity, and Framing Processes (2006, background): “This phenomenon is by now empirically well established (see Caporael, Dawes, Orbell, and Van de Kragt, 1989; Hogg, 2001; Kollock, 1997; Terry and Hogg, 2001) and quite essential to understanding the power of framing effects.”
Managing Joint Production Motivation: The Role of Goal Framing and Governance Mechanisms (2011, background): “Human beings can take the point of view of a supraindividual entity (Caporael, Dawes, Orbell, & van de Kragt, 1989; Hogg, 2001; Moorman & Blakely, 1995; van Knippenberg, 2000).”
A SOCIAL IDENTITY MODEL OF LEADERSHIP EFFECTIVENESS IN ORGANIZATIONS (2003, background): “This analysis can also be extended to include ingroup “enemies” or deviants (e.g.Hogg, Fielding & Darley, in press; Hogg & Hornsey, in press; Marques, Abrams, Ṕaez & Hogg, 2001).”
Another view of “we”: Majority and minority group perspectives on a common ingroup identity (2007, background): “These motivations may be especially strong when people’s feelings of esteem are challenged (Simon & Brown, 1987), or when people are motivated to reduce uncertainty (Hogg, 2001).”
How, When, and Why Bad Apples Spoil the Barrel: Negative Group Members and Dysfunctional Groups (2006, background): “Thus, if a destructive group member causes de-identification, there is likely to be a decrease in task effort and persistence as the team members deviate from the ''good worker'' prototype (see also Hogg, 2000 and Shamir, 1990).”
Making Sense of Life: The Existential Self Trying to Deal with Personal Uncertainty (2009, background): “After all, personal uncertainty can be produced by contextual factors that challenge people’s certainty about their cognitions, perceptions, feelings, behaviors, and ultimately their certainty about and confidence in their sense of self (Hogg, 2001).”
Reducing Intergroup Bias: The Moderating Role of Ingroup Identification (2005, background): “…social groups—some groups mean more to us than others, and, when they do, we use them as an important source of self-esteem (Abrams & Hogg, 1998; Ellemers, Spears, & Doosje, 2002) or as a means to reduce subjective uncertainty (Hogg, 2000, 2001; see also Grieve & Hogg, 1999; Hogg & Mullin, 1999).”
Akerlof and Kranton on identity in economics: inverting the analysis (2007, background): “While the main emphasis in self-categorisation theory is upon cognitive processes and individuals' beliefs about themselves and social groups, there is also emphasis upon ‘uncertainty reduction’ as a core motivation, where this idea goes beyond an emphasis purely on cognitive behaviour (Hogg, 2001).”
The Meaning Maintenance Model: On the Coherence of Social Motivations (2006, background): “The second motivation that has been proposed to underlie social identity theory is uncertainty reduction (Hogg, 2001).”
