 abstract = {Although prejudice researchers have mainly focused their attention on changing                attitudes toward outgroups, other outcome variables may also be important. In                post-conflict reconciliation, intergroup forgiveness may play a crucial role in                helping groups in conflict put the atrocities of the past behind them (Cairns, Tam,                Hewstone, & Niens, 2005). Two studies showed that both the specific                intergroup emotion of anger and infrahumanization (the attribution of more human                emotions to the ingroup than to the outgroup) predicted decreased intergroup                forgiveness in Northern Ireland. Results further revealed intergroup contact as a                potential means of reducing anger toward the outgroup and improving attitudes toward                them. This research integrated prior interpersonal theory with intergroup literature                to examine the concept of intergroup forgiveness and its predictors. Results are                discussed in terms of their implications for reconciliation in conflict societies.},
