Status Characteristics, Reward Allocation, and Equity
Parcel, Toby L.; Cook, Karen S.
Sociometry, 40, 4, 311-24, Dec 77
The relationship between a group's power and prestige or status hierarchy and group members' patterns of reward allocation was investigated. The addition of evidence concerning actual task performance results in the alignment of reward and status rankings and encourages the use of distribution rules stressing equity as opposed to equality.
