Including others in the self (2004, background): “We have suggested, based on our including-other-in-the-self model, that intergroup contact is most likely to reduce prejudice when it involves a close, intimate friendship with an outgroup member (Aron & McLaughlin-Volpe, 2001; Wright et al., 2002; Wright & Van Der Zande, 1999).”
Perspective-Taking and Self-Other Overlap: Fostering Social Bonds and Facilitating Social Coordination (2005, background): “For instance, in their self-expansion model, Aron and colleagues (Aron & Aron, 1986, 1996, 1997; Aron & McLaughlin-Volpe, 2001; Aron et al., 1991; Wright & Tropp, 2002) argue that humans can satisfy the basic motivation for interpersonal closeness by expanding their selfconcepts to include others…”
