This essay studies the “Henry Spearman” detective novel series, wherein a fictional Harvard economist applies economic theory to solve murder cases. Written by professional economists under a pen name, the novels, designed for entertainment and to be assigned to economics courses, espouse a narrow vision of economic common sense through what I call the detective’s “economic law enforcement.” By interrogating the detective’s retroactive construction of symbolic guilt upon suspects, and the authors’ use of prosopopœia in verbal debates over economic concepts, it is possible to see how economic orthodoxy is reproduced through the mechanisms of speech.

Despite burgeoning research about family distancing, researchers have yet to operationalize any family distancing construct. This paper describes the development and validation of a new measure operationalizing three components of family member marginalization (i.e., difference, disapproval, and exclusion). We evaluated the Family Member Marginalization Measure (FM3) using data from college students (Study 1; N = 191) and self-identified marginalized family members (Study 2; N = 285). Confirmatory factor analyses verified the three dimensions of perceived family member marginalization and the 39-item FM3 proved both reliable and valid. Potential applications of the scale and avenues for future research are discussed.

Because of the essentialist construction of race in the U.S. as discrete immutable categories, Multiethnic-racial (ME-R) persons, those with parents from two different ethnic-racial backgrounds, find themselves navigating many monoethnic-racial norms. When faced with these norms they must choose how they will express their ethnic-racial identities to others. One way they may shift their identity is through malleable racial identification, the act of aligning with different racial identities across different social situations. The purpose of this study is to examine malleable racial identification strategies, including cognitive, communicative, and labeling strategies, through participant voice. One hundred twenty-three ME-R individuals shared their malleable racial identification experiences and results suggest that ME-R individuals experience different feelings, as well as employ several communication patterns and identification strategies, in order to navigate feeling forced into monoethnic-racial spaces.

The Evidence at Large, published in 1805, is a publication of transcripts of testimony offered before Parliament regarding Edward Jenner’s role and legal rights in developing vaccination protocol, with a preface penned by Rev. G. C. Jenner—Edward Jenner’s nephew. This current project engages in a rhetorical analysis of Jenner’s preface, using inoculation theory as an interpretative framework. Key features of inoculation theory are revealed in Jenner’s rhetoric, including threat and refutational preemption. Additionally, this analysis reveals un- and underexplored processes of resistance to influence, including source derogation, attitude confidence, and affect-based resistance that should be explored in future research.

Despite the number of American students achieving bachelor’s degrees soaring, the gap between the most and least successful ethnic groups is becoming more pronounced. Among the lowest achieving groups are Tongan-Americans. This study uses Kramer’s (2011) multilevel model of volunteer assimilation as a theoretical framework to investigate how multiple and overlapping group memberships influence Tongan-American students as they progress from organizational entry to metamorphosis, or premature exit. The findings of this constant comparative analysis suggest that Tongan-American students’ multiple memberships are both complementary, increasing the likelihood of degree achievement, and contradictory, decreasing the likelihood of degree achievement. These complementary and competing memberships affect students’ achievement of full membership in institutions of higher education. Implications for universities seeking to assist Tongan-American students, parents of Tongan-American students, and for Tongan-American students are discussed.
