Reactions to Counterstereotypic Behavior: The Role of Backlash in Cultural Stereotype Maintenance.

Social and economic sanctions for counterstereotypical behavior have been termed the backlash effect (L. A. Rudman, 1998). The authors present a model of the role of backlash in cultural stereotype maintenance from the standpoint of both perceivers and actors. In Experiments 1 and 2, participants lost a competition to either atypical or typical men or women and subsequently showed greater tendency to sabotage deviants. Moreover, undermining deviants was associated with increased self-esteem, suggesting that backlash rewards perceivers psychologically. Experiment 3 showed that gender deviants who feared backlash resorted to strategies designed to avoid it (e.g., hiding, deception, and gender conformity). Further, perceivers who sabotaged deviants (Experiment 2) or deviants who hid their atypicality (Experiment 3) estimated greater stereotyping on the part of future perceivers, in support of the model's presumed role for backlash in stereotype maintenance. The implications of the findings for cultural stereotypes are discussed. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)

Architecture as a Dissident Practice: An Interview with Diller Scofidio + Renfro

For three decades architect Liz Diller and artist Ricardo Scofidio have been collaborating on projects that test the boundaries between art and architecture. They have done more than any other practice to champion interdisciplinary research and to advocate architecture as a wider form of cultural production. Olympia Kazi went to talk to Liz Diller to ask her if she thinks theory could really be dead, or merely in a ‘lull’. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A new method for assessment of corrosion around a scribe in the coating on a metal sheet

Scratches or any other defects in the polymer coating on metallic materials are preferred sites of increased corrosion attack. The undermining of coatings originating from such a damage is of great practical relevance and thus now as before also subject of scientific studies. In the paper a new method for in situ measurements of corrosion processes under coatings by using a sensor array will be presented. The progress of undermining originating from a scribe was determined by resistance and impedance measurements between individual sensor elements and the metallic substrate in dependency on the substrate material and other parameters.     

Elektrochemische Rauschmessungen an partiell beschichteten Oberflächen verschiedener Werkstoffe

Electrochemical noise measurements on partly coated surfaces of different materials Defects or for a special function necessary interruptions in the polymer coating on metallic materials are preferred sites of increased corrosion attack. The delamination of coatings originating from those irregularities is of great practical relevance and thus now as before also subject of intensive scientific studies. Apart from already established research methods, the measurement of electrochemical noise offers an additional research method for assessment of delamination and corrosion phenomena around defects in the coating in situ in dependency on the substrate and coating materials, the corrosive agent and environment, as well as on other influencing parameters. In this paper results of such kind of noise measurements on two quite different corrosion systems are presented.     

Being better by being right: Subjective group dynamics and derogation of in-group deviants when generic norms are undermined.

The authors predicted that derogation of group deviants depends on the extent to which in-group norms or values are validated or undermined in a social context. In Experiment 1 participants were less tolerant and derogated in-group deviants more when other in-group members opposed the norm. In Experiment 2 participants derogated in-group deviants more than out-group deviants and than noncategorized individuals, but only when normative in-group members lacked uniformity. In Experiment 3 participants derogated in-group deviants more when there was uncertainty about in-group superiority. These results are consistent with previous research on the black sheep effect (J. M. Marques, V. Y. Yzerbyt, & J. -P. Leyens, 1998) and with the model of subjective group dynamics (D. Abrams, J. M. Marques, N. J. Bown, & M. Henson, 2000; J. M. Marques, D. Abrams, D. Paez, & C. Martinez-Taboada, 1998). (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved)

On Possible Causes of Increase in Seismic Activity of Mine Fields in the Oktyabrsky and Taimyrsky Mines of the Norilsk Deposit in 2003. Part IV: Influence of Undermining of Overlying Rock Masses

An estimate is made for the effect exerted by the ratio of area of bearing elements formed in the mined-out space to area of overlying rock undermining on the development of geomechanical processes. Recommendations are made regarding the diagnostics and control of stress-strain state in mined massifs, as well as the sequence and technological schemes of stoping.__________Translated from Fiziko-Tekhnicheskie Problemy Razrabotki Poleznykh Iskopaemykh, No. 1, pp. 3–8, January–February, 2005.
