%T Reducing Intergroup Bias: The Moderating Role of Ingroup Identification %A Crisp, Richard J. %A Beck, Sarah R. %J Group Processes & Intergroup Relations %N 2 %P 173-185 %V 8 %D 2005 %K ingroup identification; intergroup bias; reducing prejudice; social categorization; %= 2011-03-01T05:44:00Z %~ http://www.peerproject.eu/ %> https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:0168-ssoar-227762 %X Recent work developing interventions designed to reduce intergroup bias has sometimes yielded disparate findings. We tested whether the varying effectiveness of such interventions may have a motivational basis. In two experiments we examined whether differential ingroup identification moderated the effectiveness of a differentiation-reducing intervention strategy. In Experiment 1, thinking of characteristics shared between the ingroup and outgroup reduced ingroup favoritism to a greater extent for lower identifiers than for higher identifiers. In Experiment 2 we replicated this finding with different target groups and evaluative measures while controlling for information load. We discuss the implications of this work for developing social psychological models of bias-reduction. %G en %9 journal article %W GESIS - http://www.gesis.org %~ SSOAR - http://www.ssoar.info
