Toward a (Pragmatic) Science of Strategic Intervention: Design Propositions for Scenario Planning (2008, background): “Individuals categorized as outgroup members (i.e. members of other salient social categories) are, in contrast, perceived less favourably than fellow ingroup members, discriminated against, and reacted to with hostility (Riek et al. 2006; Tajfel 1982).”
Exploring the roots of dehumanization: The role of animal—human similarity in promoting immigrant humanization (2010, background): “, 1991), essentially “lowering” humans to the “inferior” level of non-human animals, with threats generally prompting outgroup bias (Riek et al., 2006).”
From prejudice to discrimination: The legitimizing role of perceived threat in discrimination against immigrants (2010, background): “These indicators reflect the realistic threat definition as considered in most studies on threat perception (e.g. Esses et al., 1998; Riek et al., 2006; Stephan et al., 2002).”
Political Tolerance and Prejudice: Differential Reactions Toward Muslims in the Netherlands (2010, background): “In their meta-review, Riek, Mania, and Gaertner ( 2006 ) found that in-group identification had a significant impact on realistic and symbolic threat.”
PARENTAL ALIENATION AND THE DYNAMICS OF THE ENMESHED PARENT–CHILD DYAD: ADULTIFICATION, PARENTIFICATION, AND INFANTILIZATION (2011, positive): “…constitute the tools of afﬁliation (Garber, 2004a): those mechanisms with which groups at every level of organization, from international politics to playground cliques, distinguish who is “in” and who is “out” (Dovidio, Saguy, & Shnabel, 2009; Riek, Mania & Gaertner, 2006; Stephan et al., 2009).”
We will hunt them down: How social dominance orientation and right-wing authoritarianism fuel ethnic persecution of immigrants in fundamentally different ways (2008, background): “Most members of a host society would interpret a greater difference in cultural values between themselves and immigrants as a larger symbolic threat to their own culture and collective identity (Esses, Haddock, & Zanna, 1993; Esses, Hodson, & Dovidio, 2003; Stephan & Stephan, 2000; Zarate, Garcia, G”
The role of ''dark personalities" (narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy), Big Five personality factors, and ideology in explaining prejudice (2009, methodology): “Recently researchers have called for research exploring individual difference predictors of intergroup threat in light of its importance in fueling prejudice (Riek et al., 2006).”
An experimental approach to Intergroup Threat Theory: Manipulations, moderators, and consequences of realistic vs. symbolic threat (2018, background): “Our research has shown that members of high-status groups, whether the high status is real or perceived, exhibit the strongest responses to realistic threat manipulations (Morrison et al., 2009; see also Riek et al., 2006).”
Morality and intergroup relations: Threats to safety and group image predict the desire to interact with outgroup and ingroup members☆ (2013, background): “In line with this reasoning, there is considerable consensus that two distinct (albeit not mutually exclusive) threat categories might account for most intergroup responses: realistic and symbolic threats (for a review, see Riek et al., 2006).”
