Citations in the corpus
- Harms of Gender Exclusivity and Challenges in Non-Binary Representation in Language Technologies (2021, neutral): “Current language models can perpetrate harms such as the cyclical erasure of non-binary gender identities (Uppunda et al., 2021; Sap, 2021; Lakoff; Fiske, 1993; Fast et al., 2016; Behm-Morawitz and Mastro, 2008).”
- DExperts: Decoding-Time Controlled Text Generation with Experts and Anti-Experts (2021, background): “Note that while obtaining an LM that is truly free from social biases is impossible (Fiske, 1993; Lakoff, 1973), the “non-toxic” expert serves the purpose of modeling the same domain of comments as the toxic anti-expert, providing more effective contrast.”
- Annotators with Attitudes: How Annotator Beliefs And Identities Bias Toxic Language Detection (2021, background): “Determining whether a text is toxic (i.e., contains hate speech, abuse, or is offensive) is inherently a subjective task that requires a nuanced understanding of the pragmatic implications of language (Fiske, 1993; Croom, 2011; Waseem et al., 2021).”
- PowerTransformer: Unsupervised Controllable Revision for Biased Language Correction (2020, background): “Narratives and news texts often reflect societal biases and stereotypes, such as the traditional gender role that women are passive and submissive (Lakoff, 1973; Fiske, 1993; Fast et al., 2016).”
- Power Increases Social Distance (2012, background): “It affects how people perceive others (Fiske, 1993; Gruenfeld, Inesi, Magee, & Galinsky, 2008), the degree to which people take into account others’ perspectives and feelings (Galinsky, Magee, Inesi, & Gruenfeld, 2006; Schmid Mast, Jonas, & Hall, 2009; Van Kleef et al., 2008), their resistance to…”
- Leader power and leader self-serving behavior: The role of effective leadership beliefs and performance information (2010, background): “Leader Self-Serving Behavior and Power Power, or the asymmetric control over valued resources (Fiske, 1993; French & Raven, 1959; Keltner et al., 2003), is inherent in the leader role.”
- Service Employee Responses to Angry Customer Complaints (2017, background): “Furthermore, high-status individuals are seen as more capable than low-status ones (Tiedens, Ellsworth, and Mesquita 2000) and as more independent and thereby less influenced by others’ attitudes and actions (Fiske 1993).”
- Challenging the Norm of Self-Interest: Minority Influence and Transitions to Helping Norms in Work Units (2012, background): “Members tend to be more cognitively attuned (Fiske, 1993) and emotionally attuned (George & Bettenhausen, 1990; Sy, Côté, & Saavedra, 2005) to high-status challengers and are more likely to view them as attractive and worthy role models (Bandura, 1977; Manz & Sims, 1981).”
- Social Identity and Self-Categorization Processes in Organizational Contexts (2000, background): “Third, to redress their own perceived lack of power and control, followers seek individualizing information about the leader, because they believe that such information is most predictive of how the leader will behave in many situations (Fiske, 1993; Fiske & D6pret, 1996).”
- Compliant Sinners, Obstinate Saints: How Power and Self-Focus Determine the Effectiveness of Social Influences in Ethical Decision Making (2013, background): “The situated focus theory of power (Guinote, 2007b) argues that because the powerful are less dependent on others for their outcomes, their attention is relatively more focused on themselves (see also Fiske, 1993; Fiske & Dépret, 1996).”
- Motivated Stereotyping of Women: She’s Fine if She Praised Me but Incompetent if She Criticized Me (2000, background): “Fiske (1993) has suggested that in such asymmetric power relations, stereotypes may provide a mechanism through which the powerful exercise their control over the powerless.”
- Effects of power on emotion and expression during a controversial group discussion (2006, background): “Defined as relative control over another’s valued outcomes (Dépret & Fiske, 1993; Emerson, 1962; Fiske & Berdahl, in press; Keltner, Gruenfeld, & Anderson, 2003; Kipnis, 1976; Thibaut & Kelley, 1959), power can be used to control others and get one’s way, leading to a relatively positive…”
- On-the-Fly Controlled Text Generation with Experts and Anti-Experts (2021, methodology): “We do not employ a separate (positive) expert here, because obtaining an LM that is free from social biases and toxicity is infeasible since naturally occurring language itself reflects social biases and inequality (Fiske, 1993; Lakoff, 1973).”
- MODELING HOW TO GROW: AN INDUCTIVE EXAMINATION OF HUMBLE LEADER BEHAVIORS, CONTINGENCIES, AND OUTCOMES (2012, background): “Level of power centralization is a core dimension of organizational culture (Burns & Stalker, 1961; Cameron & Quinn, 2005), and power is a basic underlying dimension of human relationships (Fiske, 1993).”
