Anticipated Sanctions (cont)

Sanction Anticipation

A sanction is an expression of either approval given to people for upholding norms, or an expression of disapproval to people for violating norms.

Experiment

CASE #1

I predicted these sanctions because they enforce norms, which are created to enforce values. In this case, a value would be privacy.

CASE #2

Reflection

Setting: Public Restroom

Reason for stopping experiment:

Test subject said she couldn't use the restroom with me talking to her, so I felt guilty and apologized.

  • Norms being followed in public restrooms were weak to moderate. They aren't enforced strongly because they are not threatening core values.

  • The strongest way somebody expressed a negative sanction was by expressing verbal disapproval politely.

  • Internal sanctions have a bigger effect on me than external sanctions because I had to fight my internal sanctions in order to break a social norm

Norms:

  • Use women's restroom
  • Entering restroom by opening door
  • Walking in forward
  • If there is a line, wait your turn
  • Enter a stall not next to somebody else if possible
  • Using seat cover
  • Aiming INSIDE the toilet
  • Use toilet paper
  • Discard used toilet paper IN the toilet
  • Not talking to person next to you
  • Flush toilet
  • Exiting stall by opening stall door
  • Waiting in line for an open sink
  • Washing your hands with water soap
  • Drying hands with paper towel or air dryer
  • Throwing paper towel in trash can
  • Open restroom door
  • Leave by walking forward

Status & Role

Status: Museum Visitor

Role: Paying for entrance, looking at art, keeping hands off of the art, use public facilities (restroom)

  • I will be violating the norm of not speaking to anybody while using the restroom. I will start up a conversation with the person in the stall next to mine.
