Bill E. Peterson

Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

Altemeyer (2003) used the Global Change Game (GCG) to examine leadership tactics among those scoring high on authoritarianism and social dominance orientation. His innovative approach to studying the global consequences of following such leaders produced results consistent with years of research on both variables. As the world becomes more interconnected through globalization, future simulations such as the GCG may provide insight into how authoritarianism and social dominance orientation might manifest in different regions of the world.
