This volume contains seven theoretical analyses, reviews, and theory-based empirical essays on group phenomena. Researchers from Europe, North America, and China address social status and its effects, particularly the nature of status inequality, double standards for competence, and the status effects of gender; issues related to identity and its effects, namely the role of intragroup communication in social categorization, uncertainty, and identity processes and whether self-stigmatization impacts the everyday interactions of people with mental health disorders; the problem of social cooperation; and the effects of authority leniency on subordinate entitlements in the workplace.

Advances in Group Processes publishes theoretical analyses, reviews, and theory-based empirical chapters on group phenomena. The series adopts a broad conception of "group processes." This includes work on groups ranging from the very small to the very large, and on classic and contemporary topics such as status, power, trust, justice, social influence, identity, decision-making, intergroup relations and social networks. Previous contributors have included scholars from diverse fields including sociology, psychology, political science, economics, business, philosophy, computer science, mathematics and organizational behavior.   Volume 36 brings together papers related to a variety of topics in small groups and organizational research. The volume includes papers that address theoretical and empirical issues related to the ubiquitous nature of status, double standards of competence, and controlling the status effects of gender. Other contributions examine reverse identity processes, self-stigma, synchrony and cooperation and the effects of authority leniency. Overall, the volume includes papers that reflect a wide range of theoretical approaches from leading scholars who work in the general area of group processes.
