(2018): The Perils and Promises of Self-Disclosure on Social Media. In: Information Systems Frontiers 20 (3), S. 425-437. DOI: 10.1007/s10796-017-9806-7
Abstract: In addition to their professional social media accounts, individuals are increasingly using their personal profiles and casual posts to communicate their identities to work colleagues. They do this in order to 'stand out from the crowd' and to signal attributes that are difficult to showcase explicitly in a work setting. Existing studies have tended to treat personal posts viewed in a professional context as a problem, since they can threaten impression management efforts. These accounts focus on the attempts of individuals to separate their life domains on social media. In contrast, we present the narratives of professional IT workers in India who intentionally disrupt the boundaries between personal and professional profiles in order to get noticed by their employers. Drawing on the dramaturgical vocabulary of Goffman (1959) we shed light on how individuals cope with increased levels of self-disclosure on social media. We argue that their self-presentations can be likened to post-modem performances in which the traditional boundaries between actor and audience are intentionally unsettled. These casual posts communicate additional personal traits that are not otherwise included in professional presentations. Since there are no strict boundaries between formal front-stage and relaxed back-stage regions in these types of performance, a liminal mental state is often used, which enables a better assessment of the type of information to present on social media.

(2017): Motive und Hürden bei der Etablierung technischer Assistenzsysteme in Pflegeheimen: eine qualitative Studie. In: Klinische Pflegeforschung /klinische-pflegeforschung (3). Online verfügbar unter URL: https://ojs.ub.uni-freiburg.de/index.php
Abstract: In einer qualitativen Studie wird analysiert, warum technische Assistenzsysteme (TAS) aus Sicht von Einrichtungsleitungen trotz wachsender Angebote und Akzeptanz in der Bevölkerung in bundesdeutschen Pflegeheimen selten zum Einsatz kommen. Im Rahmen der Untersuchung wurden Interviews mit 12 Einrichtungsleitungen geführt, die in Teilen TAS bereits einsetzten, und mittels einer qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse ausgewertet. Die Befragten beschrieben überwiegend ihre eigene Zurückhaltung und ihre moralischen Bedenken sowie die Ablehnung insbesondere älterer Mitarbeiter gegenüber TAS und die hohen Kosten als Barrieren. Um TAS in Pflegeheimen zu etablieren, erwarteten die Interviewten eine ausreichende Beratung und Partizipation der Einrichtungen von Seiten der Industrie, eine entsprechende Qualifizierung der künftigen Pflegenden und eine aktivere Beteiligung der Pflegewissenschaft.

(2011): Development, social norms, and assignment to task. In: Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 1084, S. 21308-21315. DOI: 10.1073/pnas.1019457108
DOI: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22198757 Abstract: Economic development involves a structural transformation in the way people are allocated to tasks. There is a shift from self-provision to market exchange, facilitating specialization. There is also a shift from self-employment to wage employment in large firms and organizations, driven by innovation and increasing returns to scale. Changes in allocation mechanisms require changes in norms and attitudes. Because different labor assignment domains coexist, conflicts arise among norms that apply to different domains, possibly resulting in dysfunctional outcomes. I argue that religion, humanism, and schools have all played an important historical role in fostering the changes in social norms and attitudes that are needed to accompany structural changes in the way economies allocate workers to tasks. zitiert von 30
