• Exploring the roots of dehumanization: The role of animal—human similarity in promoting immigrant humanization (2010, background): “Less attribution of uniquely human emotions to outgroup members has been associated with decreased help for outgroup victims (Cuddy, Rock, & Norton, 2007) and lower levels of intergroup forgiveness (Tam et al., 2008).”
• The Role of Empathy and Compassion in Conflict Resolution (2019, background): “Again in Northern Ireland, a survey study showed that higher ratings of empathic concern for the out-group significantly mediated the beneficial impact of frequent positive intergroup contact on intergroup forgiveness (Tam et al., 2008).”
• The Distinctive Effects of Empathy and Hope in Intractable Conflicts (2017, background): “…considered as promoting the continuation and even escalation of the conflict (Bar-Tal 2013; Lindner 2006; Petersen 2002), while positive emotions (such as hope and empathy) were usually considered to be contributors of de-escalation and reconciliation processes (Kelman 1998; Tam et al. 2008).”
• Direct contact and authoritarianism as moderators between extended contact and reduced prejudice (2011, background): “Researchers have considered perceived threat and lack of trust as central determinants of intergroup conflict and prejudice (Dovidio, Gaertner, Kawakami, & Hodson, 2002; Stephan & Renfro, 2002; Riek et al., 2006; Tam et al., 2008).”
• Intergroup reconciliation: Instrumental and socio-emotional processes and the needs-based model (2015, background): “Consistently, a recent review (Hewstone et al., 2014) of the research conducted within the framework of Allport’s (1954) contact hypothesis in various conflictual contexts, including Northern Ireland (Tam et al., 2008), Bosnia and Herzegovina (Cehajic et al., 2008), and Cyprus (Psaltis, 2011), found”
• Emotions and Emotion Regulation in Intractable Conflict: Studying Emotional Processes Within a Unique Context (2015, result): “This prediction is supported by empirical examinations in the context of intergroup conflicts, which consistently show an association between empathy and constructive attitudes (e.g., Čehajić, Brown, & González, 2009; Tam et al. 2008).”
