The Development of Identity Theory (2014, background): “For example, Stets and Burke (2005a) showed that in marital interaction when the spousal identity is not verified (for either the husband or the wife), their level of efficacy slips, and they increase their control over their spouse in an attempt to regain the verification that was lost.”
Identification in Organizations: An Examination of Four Fundamental Questions (2008, background): “…processes work together as a cycle—a common feature of several identification process models (Grotevant, 1987; Kerpelman et al., 1997; Marcia, 2002; Pratt et al., 2006; Stets & Burke, 2005)—that captures the moment-by-moment attempts to become prototypical members of the organization.”
Category membership, identity control, and the reevaluation of prosocial opportunities (2017, background): “Successful verification of important identities leads to greater self-esteem and feelings of authenticity, while failure to verify can lead to guilt, anger, and stress (Stets and Burke, 2005).”
Exploring environmental entrepreneurship: : Identity coupling, venture goals, and stakeholder incentives (2016, background): “Because salient identities are largely embedded in social relationships (Stets and Burke, 2000, 2005), we suspect those with an ecological dominant identity were wary of appearing to ‘sell out’ by including commercially oriented stakeholders.”
