“…The results obtained by Bruner et al, extend the results of previous studies, emphasizing the benefits of social identity for team members behavior and team effectiveness, and demonstrate how social identity can contribute to positive self-attitude and attitude towards other people. An empirical study by Hohman et al (2016) extends previous work on social identity. The results of the study showed that people with a low level of social identity are more likely to identify themselves with a highly attractive group, and people with a high level of social identity are more likely to identify themselves with an insufficiently attractive group.…”

The article presents the results of an empirical study aimed at identifying the influence of gender characteristics on transformation of the adult identity. It was revealed that identity is directly connected with gender characteristics of personality. It was found that gender characteristics, as well as sex, age, marital status and education have the most profound impact on the specificity of the transformation of adult identity. Criteria and specificity of crisis identity of the adult personality are considered. Criteria and specifics of the crisis identity of an adult are also examined.

“…Participants’ HR and SCL were measured concurrently during the writing task (constituting T1). Next, participants were randomly assigned to read about Texas Tech University being high or low in entitativity (the entitativity manipulation; see Appendix and Hohman et al., 2016). Participants in the high entitativity condition read a short essay highlighting the entitative characteristics of Texas Tech University; participants in the low entitativity condition read a short essay highlighting the non‐entitative characteristics of Texas Tech University.…”

“…To verify that the entitativity manipulation increased perceptions of entitativity, we measure self‐reported entitativity after the entitativity manipulation. Participants completed a validated 8‐item entitativity scale (Hohman et al., 2016), for example, “how organized is the group?” (7‐point scale from “not at all” to “very much”), M = 4.69, SD = .81, α = .76.…”

Sweating the big stuff: Arousal and stress as functions of self‐uncertainty and identification

Groups serve a variety of crucial functions, one of which is the provision of an identity and belief system that impart self-referent information, thereby reducing self-uncertainty.Entitative groups are more attractive for highly uncertain participants seeking groups for identification and self-uncertainty reduction than less entitative groups. The purpose of the current study was to explore how self-uncertainty impacts physiological arousal and stress responses. Using a mixed-methods design (N = 123), we found that self-uncertainty increased physiological arousal (measured via skin-conductance level) and stress responses (measured via heart rate). Furthermore, we found that uncertaintyactivated physiological arousal and stress responses were decreased through identification with a high entitativity group. Our findings expand upon uncertainty identity theory by identifying physiological mechanisms that motivate uncertainty reduction.

“…Hohman, Dahl and Grubbs state that "group entitativity is not an objective assessment of cohesiveness but is the perception of the degree of cohesiveness" [38]. In order to measure entitativity, one can ask an observer how cohesive a group appears (group-level variable).…”

The research community of human-robot interaction relies on theories and phenomena from the social sciences in order to study and validate robotic developments in interaction. These studies mainly concerned one (human) on one (robot) interactions in the past. The present paper shifts the attention to groups and group dynamics and reviews relevant concepts from the social sciences: ingroup identification (I), cohesion (C) and entitativity (E). Ubiquitous robots will be part of larger social settings in the near future. A conceptual framework, the I-C-E framework, is proposed as a theoretical foundation for group (dynamics) research in HRI. Additionally, we present methods and possible measures for these relevant concepts and outline topics for future research.
