I'm tempted to do a master in social psychology too and study you guys.
Basic concepts:
Ingroups and outgroups
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In sociology and social psychology, ingroups and outgroups are social groups to which an individual feels as though he or she belongs as a member, or (for outgroups) to which they feel contempt, opposition, or a desire to compete. People tend to hold positive attitudes towards members of their own groups, a phenomenon known as ingroup bias. The term originates from social identity theory which grew out of the work of social psychologists Henri Tajfel and John Turner. Using a method called the minimal group paradigm, Tajfel and colleagues discovered that people can form ingroups, as well as outgroups within a matter of minutes. Such groups can form even on the basis of seemingly trivial characteristics, such as preferences for certain paintings. Tajfel and colleagues' experiments also demonstrate that people are likely to privilege ingroup members (e.g. by awarding them more points or money), even when groups have been formed on trivial characteristics. Members of outgroups may be subject to outgroup homogeneity biases.
In evolutionary psychology, ingroup favoritism is seen as an evolved mechanism selected for the advantages of coalition affiliation. Elements of favoritism are flexible in that they can be erased by social categorization manipulations. Other components appear less flexible, or even essential - for instance this has been claimed for sex and ethnicity. A biological basis for these multiple systems for favoritism is indicated by behavior genetic research.
Most people belong to multiple social groups. Commonly encountered ingroup members include family as well as people of the same race, culture, gender and religion. Research demonstrates that people often privilege ingroup members over outgroup members even when the ingroup has no actual social standing.
Out-group homogeneity
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The out-group homogeneity effect, also known as out-group homogeneity bias, is one's perception of out-group members as more similar to one another than are in-group members. Thus "they are alike; we are diverse". People have a more differentiated cognitive representation of in-groups than of out-groups.
The implications of this effect on stereotyping have been noted. Social perceivers tend to have impressions about the diversity or variability of group members around those central tendencies or typical attributes of (out-) group members. Out-group stereotypicality judgments are overestimated, supporting the view that out-group stereotypes are overgeneralizations.
This bias was found to be unrelated to the number of group and non-group members individuals knew. One might think that people thought members of their own groups were more varied and different simply because they knew them better and thus have more information about ingroups, but this is actually not the case. The out-group homogeneity bias was found between groups such as "men" and "women" who obviously interact frequently.
Elsewhere, this difference is attributed to differences in how people store or process in-group versus out-group information. However, this concept has been challenged due to some cases in which in-groups view themselves as homogeneous. Researchers have postulated that such an effect is present when viewing a group as homogenous helps to promote in-group solidarity. Experiments on the topic found that in-group homogeneity is displayed when people who highly identify with a group are presented with stereotypical information about that group.
