Can Cultural Worldviews Influence Network Composition? (2010, background): “On the other hand, because both community and theistic moralities are more “collectivist” (Hitlin 2003; Oishi, Schimmack, Diener and Suh 1998) we should expect that they will be positively associated with acquiring or maintaining strong ties to regular community volunteers.”

The Ethical Backlash of Corporate Branding (2007, background): “While values are central to the development of identity (Hitlin, 2003; Taylor, 1989), both are rendered vulnerable by societal change (Beck-Gernsheim and Beck, 2002; Giddens, 1991), leading to attempts at identity-reconstruction within which consumption decisions are likely to play a significant rol”
Broadening the Study of the Self: Integrating the Study of Personal Identity and Cultural Identity (2008, background): “…spirit of Erikson’s (1950) writing should be followed – even if the goal is to go beyond his theoretical and clinical works and to apply personal identity to cultural and public health concerns (Schwartz, 2005) or to develop integrative views that transcend disciplinary boundaries (Hitlin, 2003).”
