(2017): Isms and schisms. A meta-analysis of the prejudice-discrimination relationship across racism, sexism, and ageism. In: Journal of Organizational Behavior 38 (7), S. 1076-1110. DOI: 10.1002/job.2187
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1002/job.2187 Abstract: Racism, sexism, and ageism persist in modern day organizations and may translate into workplace discrimination, which can undermine organizational effectiveness. We provide the first meta-analysis comparing the relationships between these three types of prejudice (racism, sexism, and ageism) and three types of workplace discrimination (selection, performance evaluation, and opposition to diversity-supportive policies). Across outcomes, racism was associated with workplace discrimination, whereas sexism was not. Ageism was associated with discriminatory selection and opposition to organizational policies supporting older workers; however, ageism was not related to discriminatory performance evaluation. Consistent with prior research and theory, Implicit Association Test measures were related to subtle discrimination (opposition to diversity-supportive policies) but not deliberate discrimination (selection and performance evaluation). Finally, prejudice was more strongly as sociated with discrimination against real as compared with hypothetical targets. Implications for organizational researchers and practitioners are discussed.

(2016): Positive and Negative Ageism. In: Affilia 31 (2), S. 207-218. DOI: 10.1177/0886109915595839
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1177/0886109915595839 Abstract: Addressing social injustice is an integral aspect to social work; however, the challenge lies in the fact that society is stratified by sociodemographic characteristics creating power and privilege for some and oppression for many. Understanding how biases that support this social structure are interrelated further elucidates the systemic nature of biases. This study examined the extent to which sexist beliefs would help explain ageism. Results indicated that benevolent sexism was associated with positive ageism, and hostile sexism helped explain negative ageism. These findings contribute to theory development on interlocking prejudices and inform pedagogical approaches that help address biases. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2018 APA, all rights reserved)
