Meanwhile, achieved statuses are akin to one's educational credentials or occupation: these things require a person to exercise effort and often undergo years of training. The term <a href="/wiki/Master_status" title="Master status">master status</a> has been used to describe the status most important for determining a person's position in a given context, like possessing a mental illness.<sup id="cite_ref-BrymLie2009_18-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-BrymLie2009-18"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>18<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>However, the concept of a master status is controversial. <a href="/wiki/Status_characteristics_theory" class="mw-redirect" title="Status characteristics theory">Status characteristics theory</a> argues members of a task group will listen to whomever they believe will most help them solve a problem. One's external status in society (e.g., race or gender) determines influence in small groups, but so does a person's known ability on the task (e.g., mechanical ability when a car breaks down).<sup id="cite_ref-:5_20-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:5-20"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>20<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This implies that known ability would attenuate the effect of external status, implying a given external status characteristic is not a master status.

When actual ability does correspond to status, then status hierarchies can be especially useful. They allow leaders to emerge who set informed precedents and influence less knowledgeable group members, allowing groups to use the shared information of their group to make more correct decisions.<sup id="cite_ref-25" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-25"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>25<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This can be especially helpful in novel situations where group members must determine who is best equipped to complete a task. </p><p>In addition, groups accord more respect and esteem to members who help them succeed, which encourages highly capable members to contribute in the first place.<sup id="cite_ref-26" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-26"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>26<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This helps groups motivate members to contribute to a collective good by offering respect and esteem as a kind of compensation for helping everyone in the group succeed.
