common ingroup identity model
Definition
- The common ingroup identity model represents a strategy for reducing prejudice that assumes that intergroup biases are rooted in fundamental, normal psychological processes, particularly in the universal tendency to simplify a complex environment by classifying objects and people into groups or categories. This process of categorization often occurs spontaneously on the basis of physical similarity, proximity, or shared fate.
