Anti-Norm and Pro-Norm Deviance in the Bank and on the Campus: Two Experiments on Subjective Group Dynamics (2002, background): “In contrast, SIT would predict heightened efforts to differentiate evaluatively between the two groups as a whole ( Jetten et al., 2001).”
We will hunt them down: How social dominance orientation and right-wing authoritarianism fuel ethnic persecution of immigrants in fundamentally different ways (2008, background): “As a result, people who strongly identify with their national ingroup should be especially likely to react aggressively to the distinctiveness threats posed by assimilating immigrants ( Jetten, Spears, & Manstead, 2001; Roccas & Schwartz, 1993; for meta-analytical reviews see also Jetten et al., 20”
Intergroup threat and outgroup attitudes: a meta-analytic review. (2006, background): “Jetten, Spears, and Manstead (2001) found that under conditions of low intergroup distinctiveness, high identifying ingroup members displayed higher intergroup bias relative to low identifiers.”
The divisive potential of differences and similarities: The role of intergroup distinctiveness in intergroup differentiation (2003, background): “…low levels of differentiation under those conditions in previous work (Jetten et al., 1998) but find relatively high levels of differentiation in research examining the interaction between identification and distinctiveness directly or meta-analytically (Dwyer, 2000; Jetten et al., 2001, 2003).”
