Research Assistant, National Child Care Survey 1990-1991 RESEARCH Interests How social status develops, is maintained, and changes over time through social interaction; how it shapes and is shaped by individual and collective perceptions and behavior, and the effects it has on individual and collective well-being and performance. These general interest is currently manifested in three lines of research: (1) the study of composition and socialization in work teams over time, (2) the study of gender harassment in organizations, and (3) the study of social status and perceptions of the dynamics of social power structures over time.
