1 The three award committees selected their award recipients this spring. Robin Simon received the Lifetime Achievement Award. See page 7 for highlights on her distinguished career. Natasha Warikoo received the Outstanding Contribution Award, Kaitlin Boyle and Kimberly Rogers received an honorable mention, and Anna Gabur received the Outstanding Graduate Student Paper Award. See pages 9-15 for summaries of these excellent articles. Congratulations to the recipients, and many thanks to the hard-working award committees, chaired by Cathy Johnson, Kari Norgaard, and Susan Fisk! Be sure to attend our business meeting (Saturday, August 7, 11:00-11:30 am EDT) where we will hold our award ceremony.

The Membership Committee, co-chaired by Marci Cottingham and Sarah Harkness, has been busy this spring putting together a new mentorship program. See page 5 for more information and the survey link. Note that the committee has extended the deadline for completing the survey to July 5. This program is open to all graduate students, even those who are not members of the section, an expansion designed to expose a broader range of students to the section. With that in mind, feel free to spread the word to students outside the section. The committee also encourages members to sponsor a student (cost is $5), a gift that this year must be done by July 31, 2021. See page 6 for more details.

The election results are also in. We welcome Gretchen Peterson as our new chair-elect, Ghassan Moussawi as our new council member, and Malissa Alinor as our new graduate student council member. Many thanks to the Nominations Committee, chaired by Alison Bianchi, for putting together an outstanding slate of candidates. Also, the bylaw amendments were approved. We changed the name of the Publications Committee to the “Publication and Social Media Committee” and updated its description to match what the committee currently does (compile the newsletters, update social media accounts, and keep the website updated). We also now specify that the elected members of council have voting rights.

2 We have an exciting set of sessions planned for the 2021 (virtual) ASA meetings. Trent Mize organized a fantastic session focused on the intersections of emotions and social inequality; Kristen Discola co- organized the joint Social Psychology and Emotions Section Roundtables; and during the chair's hour, Anna Durnová, Paul Joosse, and Daniel Karell will discuss the role of emotions in political beliefs and political behavior. Also, two of our graduate student members, Malissa Alinor and Em Maloney, are holding a social hour for graduate student members of the Emotions and Social Psychology Sections on Saturday from 7:30-8:30 pm EDT. The event is open to all current and prospective graduate student members. See pages 16-17 for details on these and other emotions- related sessions and activities.

I look forward to seeing you virtually at the ASA meeting. Until then, I hope you can relax and recuperate and experience lots of positive emotions!

Best, Amy

6 AWARDS: LIFETIME ACHIEVEMNT AWARD ROBIN SIMON

The Sociology of Emotions Section Lifetime Achievement Award is given every two years to an individual who has made lifetime contributions to the sociology of emotions by developing and extending the sociology of emotions empirically, theoretically, or methodologically.

C O M I T T E E S T A T E M E N T , C A T H R Y N J O H N S O N

From a set of outstanding nominees, the Emotions Section Lifetime Achievement Award selection committee has chosen Robin Simon for this year’s award. Her nominees state that, “Robin is, without question, one of the most highly respected and influential sociologists of emotions in the field today,” and the committee wholeheartedly agrees with this sentiment! Robin’s critical and engaging work on emotions and mental health advances both subfields, without a . Here are just a few praises of Robin Simon and her work provided in her nomination letter:

“…Robin Simon presents a distinguished record of research that has reshaped the sociology of emotions. Her work bridges sociology of emotions to other sociological subfields, including gender, social psychology, family sociology, sociology of mental health, and medical sociology and has brought insights from the sociology of emotions into public consciousness.”

“Every one of Robin’s articles is a gem—methodologically meticulous, inherently interesting, forward- looking, and rich with theoretical and empirical insight.”

“Robin also is one of the few scholars whose contributions to the sociology of emotion are based on both qualitative and quantitative analysis (a sign of Robin’s methodological inclusiveness, a quality that we wish more in the discipline shared), as seen by a series of papers (including “The Meanings Individuals Attach to Role-Identities...”) in which she delineates the “meaning” (both cognitive and affective) of familial roles and assesses the consequences of the fit between these meanings and actual role involvement.”

“Her research linking emotions to gender, mental health, and family sets the standard against which subsequent work has been and will continue to be judged.”

We look forward to giving Robin this most prestigious award at this summer’s meetings!

Professor Simon’s research examines the ways in which gender shapes women’s and men’s social roles and relationships, identities, and emotions as well as mental health in the U.S. Her scholarship analyzes the social determinants of emotional well-being through a social psych- ological lens and falls into two distinct though interrelated lines of work. One identifies social structural, socio-cultural, and social psychological factors that underlie gender differences in the impact of marriage and parenthood on adults’ mental health. The other focuses on the importance of our emotional , which contains gendered emotion norms, for understanding the etiology of gender disparities in both the experience and expression of emotions as well as internalizing and externalizing mental health problems among children, adolescents and adults. She draws on insights from several areas of sociology to elucidate why the profound social change in women’s roles and the family has not closed the gender gap in emotions and mental health.

Dr. Simon’s publications appear in the American Journal of Sociology, Journal of Health & Social Behavior, Social Psychology Quarterly, Social Forces and Contexts. A recent article in Society & Mental Health provides a synopsis of her work. She has received multiple national awards for her scholarship – most recently, two-lifetime achievement awards for contributions to the sociological understanding of both gender and society and mental health. Because her studies often debunk cultural beliefs about gender, social relationships, emotions, and mental health, her research has received considerable media . She welcomes opportunities to share her findings with the public to increase their understanding of social forces affecting them and policy solutions to seemingly intractable social problems – especially the consequences of systemic gender inequality for emotional well-being. Dr. Simon teaches courses on Mental Health, Emotions, Health Inequalities, Social Psychology of Inequality as well as Gender, Social Relationships, and Well- Being Over the Life Course.

8 OUTSTANDING RECENT CONTRIBUTION (ARTICLE) NATASHA WARIKOO

Warikoo, Natasha. 2020. "Addressing Emotional Health while Protecting Status: Asian American and White Parents in Suburban America." American Journal of Sociology 126, no. 3: 545-576.

The Sociology of Emotions Section Outstanding Recent Contribution Award is given to an article published in the last year that advances the sociology of emotions empirically, theoretically, or methodologically.

In recent decades scholars have demonstrated how class shapes parenting practices in ways that reproduce privilege. Most prominently, Annette Lareau developed the concepts of “concerted cultivation” and “accomplishment of natural growth” to describe middle/upper versus working class/poor parents’ styles of parenting, respectively (Lareau, 2011). While both class-linked styles of parenting have advantages and disadvantages, schools reward concerted cultivation (Calarco 2018). Despite this attention to the influence of class-based parenting practices on academic success, much less attention has been paid, especially by sociologists of education, to the affective dimensions of parenting.

This is a mistake. A number of publications, both academic and public-facing, have suggested a link between upper middle class “intensive,” “helicopter,” or “tiger” parenting and children’s emotional well-being; sometimes this is specifically linked to Asian American parenting (Chua 2011; Lee & Zhou 2015; Luthar, Barkin & Crossman 2013, Mueller & Abrutyn 2016). In this paper I examine the impact of those concerns on parenting. Do parents express concerns about their children’s emotional health and if so, what cultural repertoires do they draw from as they act in response to those concerns? I address this question through an analysis of sixty white, Chinese, and Indian parents living in the same wealthy East Coast suburban town. The town has a large and growing Asian population.

I found that most parents try to balance their goals of supporting their children's achievement while also protecting their emotional health. However, those goals sometimes come into conflict, such as when long hours were required for academic achievement or by sports teams, with little time for and socializing. Still, while most parents expressed concerns about their children’s emotional health, I found important differences between white and Asian parents in how they addressed those concerns. Those ethnic differences aligned with differences in the domains in which children of each group tended to excel.

9 Let me explain. On average, Asian American students outperformed their white peers academically—they were more likely to take advanced-level classes, and earned higher grades than their white peers (despite no weighting of grades according to level). On the other hand, Asian American children were much less likely than their white peers to participate in varsity sports, and more likely to have experienced failure in a tryout. Parents’ attention to emotional health aligned with those areas of strength for both groups. White parents tended to advocate for school policies that reduce academic work, such as the district’s new homework policy that stipulated reduced expectations for homework. Some white parents particularly concerned about their child’s emotional health moved them to private schools, which ensured a lower percentage of Asian American peers and greater access to elite colleges (Stevens 2007). Immigrant Indian and Chinese parents disagreed with policy changes that might attenuate academic achievement opportunities. A small number of them also advocated for intramural sports opportunities for children to get exercise and socialize without the heavy commitments (or tryouts) of varsity sports. In other words, both sets of parents addressed their children’s emotional well-being in ways that protect their in-group status.

Different perspectives on how to address emotional well-being led to ethnic tensions in the town, despite its overall liberal politics. The findings suggest that attention to emotional well-being can become a new domain for ethnic conflict and struggles over group status. They also have implications for theories of ethnic incorporation. I found that despite Asian American students outperforming their peers academically, white parents generally rejected the cultural repertoires of Asian parents, naming the impact on emotional well-being as a reason for doing so. Cultural repertoires related to emotion is an unexamined dimension of ethnic assimilation that needs greater attention.

Boyle, Kaitlin M. and Kimberly B. Rogers. 2020. "Beyond the Rape 'Victim'- 'Survivor' Binary: How Race, Gender, and Identity Processes Interact to Shape Distress. Sociological Forum 35:323-345.

The Sociology of Emotions Section Outstanding Recent Contribution Award is given to an article published in the last year that advances the sociology of emotions empirically, theoretically, or methodologically.

Jenny Enos summarizes Boyle and Rogers's article in a Sociology Lens article titled "Identity Theory, Emotions, and the "Victim"-"Survivor" Binary." We provide an excerpt of Enos's column below.

Theorists of social identity have also examined how emotions may play a part in identity commitment and salience. Anecdotally, most individuals can point to certain events or experiences – both positive and negative – that have shaped their understandings of themselves; therefore, scholars have interrogated how emotional responses to events may inform the commitment and salience of certain identities. In turn, these identities may our emotions. In this vein, Boyle and Rogers’ article entitled “Beyond the Rape ‘Victim’-‘Survivor’ Binary: How Race, Gender, and Identity Processes Interact to Shape Distress,” examines how identifying as a “victim” or “survivor” of sexual assault relates to individual of distress. In a survey of college students, the authors find that while most respondents identify as both “victims” and “survivors” of sexual assault, those who identify solely as “victims” report greater negative emotions than those who identify solely as “survivors”. Importantly, these findings vary based on race and gender categories, whereby identifying as a “victim” is found to have stronger negative associations with men’s emotional states than women’s and identifying as a “survivor” particularly mitigates emotional distress among women of color.

Sexual violence, and how individuals experience it, is undoubtedly gendered as well as racialized. The history of sexualizing women of color as “unrapeable” in the U.S. makes White women more likely to be considered to be “victims” of sexual assault than women of color in public discourse. Additionally, Black women in particular have to navigate stereotypes about “strong Black women”

12 in their identification as either “victims” or “survivors” of sexual assault. In line with these considerations, Boyle and Rogers find that the negative effects of identifying as a “victim” was stronger for women of color than for White women, and those women of color who identified as “survivors” experienced more positive emotions than their White counterparts.

This study echoes lively debates in feminist and social movement circles about victimization and the proper terminology to use to describe those who have been sexually assaulted. The various culturally embedded meanings in the word “victim” make the debate especially controversial. As one Time Magazine contributor writes of her own experience with grappling with the victim-survivor binary: “pick up a thesaurus, or type ‘victim’ into an online one, and you begin to get the picture: butt, clown, dupe, fool, gopher, gudgeon, gull, mark, patsy, pawn, pigeon, prey, pushover, stooge, sucker. These are the words that begin rewriting your story as soon as you utter the word victim” (Harding 2020). What’s more, anti-feminist skeptics may argue that calling oneself a “victim” is self-indulgent because of our culture’s supposed coddling of victims and the power that victims are granted to “pull emotional rank over non-victims when discussing contentious cultural issues” (Harding 2020). Considering this multi- layered stigma associated with identifying as a “victim,” it is not difficult to see why Boyle and Rogers’ study found that such an identity is related with negative emotional outcomes.

Undoubtedly, the finding that individuals’ emotional states can be influenced by whether they identify as “victims” or “survivors” of sexual assault raises many important questions about traumatic events, identities, and emotion. Given the particular stigmatization around sexual assault in our culture, one may ask how Boyle and Rogers’ findings translate to other experience-based identities. For example, do we see the same relationship between emotional outcomes and identifying as a victim of other types of violent crime? The causal direction of these findings is also interesting to consider. There appears to be a mutually reinforcing cycle of stigmatization-identity-emotion at play here, whereby sexual assault stigmatization influences identity formation, which in turn influences emotional outcomes, which then reinforces the stigmatization. Does this suggest feminist social movements should push even harder to move away from the “victim” discourse to the “survivor” discourse? Or would continued efforts to influence how individuals identify instead reinforce the stigmatization and individuals who have experienced sexual assault may feel? As Harding writes, it might be worth considering: “What’s wrong with being a victim?” (Harding 2020).

14 GRADUATE STUDENT PAPER AWARD ANNA GABUR

" W E K N O W Y O U R P A I N . C U L T U R A L D I M E N S I O N S O F P A I N A N D S U F F E R I N G . "

The Sociology of Emotions Section Graduate Student Paper Award is given to the author(s) of the most outstanding article-length graduate student paper that contributes to the sociology of emotions empirically, theoretically, or methodologically.

Pain is an experience that is at once personal and universal. In my paper I examine its various degrees of severity and forms – physical, emotional, social, and financial. Although people have limited personal experience with types of that have afflicted them and are viscerally known to them, they also have cultural knowledge of many other kinds of that are available through observing others, but also through information that comes from other sources, such as the media. As a result, people have knowledge not only about lived pain, but also about pain that they have never experienced. For example, we may know that the loss of a child is tremendous suffering even if we neither lost, nor had a child of our own.

I argue that we do not simply have awareness of a variety of forms of pain, but we also routinely and consistently categorize these types of suffering by severity. For example, one does not simply know that the loss of a child is painful, but also that it is more painful than the loss of a job. I apply the grounded theory method to 44 original interviews in order to uncover the five main dimensions that we use to interpret and compare other people’s suffering – duration, rarity, unexpectedness, repair and culpability. Thus, a form of pain that is prolonged, rare, unexpected, to which there is no cure, and where the sufferer is not at fault is perceived as the most severe.

We use these five dimensions not only to assess the pain of others, but also to adjust our own experience of suffering. Respondents in my study indicated that they used the five dimensions to police their own feelings and often compared themselves in their pain to hypothetical others who suffered more, or to perceptions of how severe their suffering was supposed to be. In such instances cultural knowledge of pain clashes with visceral experience.

The five dimensions are pervasive, robust, and internalized, operating at the level of cultural models. They impact how we perceive the suffering of others, but also of ourselves, and understanding how we use them to categorize pain severity is useful for scholars in a broad range of fields, such as emotions, culture, race, gender, social movements and inequality.

Anna Gabur is a Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Sociology at the University of Notre Dame. She is primarily interested in qualitative research that tackles questions at the intersection of emotions and culture. Her current project applies grounded theory to original interviews in order to uncover the factors that lead to . Using the concept of “empathy scenario” she looks at the event, the setting, and the people involved in the empathy exchange in order to understand what compelled respondents to accept or reject, extend or withhold empathy.

In 2003, Social Psychology Quarterly published a special issue edited by Dr. Lawrence Bobo on the social psychology of race, racism, and discrimination. We are organizing a 20th anniversary special issue on the same topic to appear in 2023.

This special issue calls for papers that seek to understand the social psychological processes that shape and are shaped by racialized social structures. We understand race to be a social construction and are open to papers that conceive of race as an independent or dependent variable. We invite empirical articles that employ quantitative and/or qualitative methods as well as theoretical articles that make important contributions to social psychological knowledge. Data may be conducted in the field, online, or in the laboratory, and investigations can occur at one or multiple levels of analysis. We are particularly interested in research that includes groups that have been historically underrepresented in research on race and racism (e.g., indigenous populations) and that examines social psychological processes in racialized institutions like the family, criminal justice system, education system, and in healthcare. The social psychology of race, racism, and discrimination includes but is not limited to the following topics:

Discrimination and bias Intersectionality Identity Processes underlying health Intergroup relations disparities Social cognition Health and well-being Implicit and explicit racial Emotions attitudes Interaction Power and status and social cohesion Social networks and social capital Collective action

Full papers should be submitted at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/spq by January 15, 2022. See "Notice for Contributors" for the submission requirements. Please indicate in a cover letter that the paper is to be considered for the special issue on "Race, Racism, and Discrimination."

For more information on the special issue, please feel free to contact our editorial office ([email protected]) or the special issue editors, Corey D. Fields ([email protected]), Verna M. Keith ([email protected]), and Justine Tinkler ([email protected]).

Edited by: Jennie Brand, University of California Los Angeles Jason Fletcher, University of Wisconsin-Madison Florencia Torche, Stanford University

Economic recession, natural disaster, pandemic, and other large-scale events can have far-reaching effects on families. Individuals often experience disruptive events within these contexts, losing jobs, homes, or their lives, as a result. Disruption can induce socioeconomic loss, psychological distress, and injurious health consequences, potentially inducing long-term scarring effects on wellbeing for families. Disruptive events may be particularly harmful for children because they impact access to resources, cognitive and socioemotional development, and health, in ways that shape later educational attainment and socioeconomic wellbeing. Understanding the consequences of disruptive events on children is important because these exposures are highly prevalent at the population level and they are occurring at an unprecedented rate in the context of current health, economic, and social crises. Furthermore, the risk of exposure is not neutral. Rather, it is typically stratified by sources of disadvantage, such as socioeconomic and racial/ethnic minority status. Poor and marginalized families in disadvantaged communities are more likely to experience harmful disruption in their daily lives. As such, early-life exposure to harmful events could contribute to the intergenerational persistence of disadvantage.

Much attention focuses on overall average effects of disruptive events on children. However, the consequences of such events vary, sometimes dramatically, across different groups. Some studies suggest that the same event could have profound negative consequences for some populations but less, or even no, impact among others. For example, prenatal exposure to natural disaster hampers children's cognitive development among poor families, but carries no penalties among more advantaged families. Historical evidence suggests that the negative consequences of early-life exposure to the 1918 flu on mortality, educational attainment, and socioeconomic status were stronger for African Americans than Whites.

22 This special issue of RSF invites empirical papers that examine heterogeneity in the effects of disruptive events on children's attainment and wellbeing. Given the health, economic, and social upheaval of 2020, this is a crucial time to understand the differential impact of disruption on children's lives. In addition to analyses of heterogeneity in the effects of disruptive events, we encourage contributions that consider mechanisms accounting for and policies aimed at alleviating heterogeneous effects of disruptive events. We are interested in both aggregate shocks (e.g., economic recession, natural disaster, pandemic) and individual- or family-level disruptive events (e.g., job loss, housing loss, and health shocks), and various axes of heterogeneity, such as demographic, socioeconomic, and developmental. Finally, we are interested in interactions between macro-level and micro-level sources of disruption.

We invite papers using diverse methodological approaches—quantitative and qualitative— to uncover heterogeneous effects of disruption on children's attainment and wellbeing. Analyses that add to our understanding of the mechanisms linking event exposure and subsequent outcomes, are welcome. We welcome work that addresses disruptive events in the U.S. and abroad.

Anticipated Timeline

Prospective contributors should submit a CV and an abstract (up to two pages in length, single or double spaced) of their study along with up to two pages of supporting material (e.g., tables, figures, pictures, references that don't fit on the proposal pages, etc.) no later than 5 PM EST on August 11, 2021 to: rsf.fluxx.io

NOTE that if you wish to submit an abstract and do not yet have an account with us, it can take up to 48 hours to get credentials, so please start your application at least two days before the deadline. All submissions must be original work that has not been previously published in part or in full. Only abstracts submitted to https://rsf.fluxx.io will be considered. Each paper will receive a $1,000 honorarium when the issue is published. All questions regarding this issue should be directed to Suzanne Nichols, Director of Publications, at [email protected] and not to the email addresses of the editors of the issue.

A conference will take place at the Russell Sage Foundation in New York City on June 10, 2022. The selected contributors will gather for a one-day workshop to present draft papers (due a month prior to the conference on 5/9/22) and receive feedback from the other contributors and editors. Travel costs, food, and lodging for one author per paper will be covered by the foundation. Papers will be circulated before the conference. After the conference, the authors will submit their revised drafts by 9/6/22. The papers will then be sent out to three additional scholars for formal peer review. Having received feedback from reviewers and the RSF board, authors will revise their papers by 11/9//22. The full and final issue will be published in the fall of 2023. Papers will be published open access on the RSF website as well as in several digital repositories, including JSTOR and UPCC/Muse.

Offering insights based on years of original research, Redefining Murder, Transforming Emotion: An Exploration of after Loss Due to Homicide investigates the ideas and experiences of individuals who have lost loved ones to homicide (co-victims) in order to advance our understanding of the emotional transformation of forgiveness. It stands at the crux of two vibrant, growing fields: criminal victimology and the sociology of emotion. Analysis of 36 intensive interviews with co-victims and three years of participant observation of self- help groups and other victim-centered events offers a multidimensional understanding of forgiveness.

Specifically, this book answers the questions of "What?," "When?," "How?," and "Why?" forgiveness occurs by exploring co-victims’ ideas about forgiveness, the differential experiences of various groups of people, the processes through which forgiveness occurs in a variety of extreme circumstances of homicide, and co-victims’ motivations toward forgiveness. The book concludes with commentary on overarching conclusions based on this work; theoretical and practical implications; suggestions for directions for future inquiry; and an in- depth account of the methodological strategies employed to gather such rich and nuanced data.

This book will appeal to academics and students alike, within relevant fields, including sociology, criminology, restorative justice, victim services, psychology, and social welfare, as well as individuals seeking a better understanding of their own experiences, including co- victims or others whose lives have been altered by extreme forms of violence and upheaval. Its detailed postscript will also serve well those interested in qualitative methodology in social science research.
