The Impact of Intergroup Emotions on Forgiveness in Northern Ireland (2007, methodology): “…and theorizing on interpersonal forgiveness, intergroup relations, and emotion, and the small literature on intergroup forgiveness in this context (Hewstone et al., 2004; Hewstone, Cairns, Voci, Hamberger, & Niens, 2006), which suggests segregation in Northern Ireland to hinder intergroup…”
The unique effects of blatant dehumanization on attitudes and behavior towards Muslim refugees during the European ‘refugee crisis’ across four countries (2018, background): “Past work has shown that group-based emotions such as anger, guilt, and shame in response to ingroup wrongdoings motivate pro-social behavior across group boundaries (Brown & Cehajic, 2008; Glasford, 2013; Hewstone et al., 2004).”
Forgive and Forget? Antecedents and Consequences of Intergroup Forgiveness in Bosnia and Herzegovina (2008, background): “These include perceived outgroup variability (Islam & Hewstone, 1993; Paolini, Hewstone, Cairns, & Voci, 2004), mutual accommodation (Harwood, Hewstone, Paolini, & Voci, 2005), positive and negative emotions and associated action tendencies (Tam, 2005), and, most pertinently for our present purposes”
Group Threat, Collective Angst, and Ingroup Forgiveness for the War in Iraq (2009, background): “According to Kelman (1992), when group members remember past victimization, it becomes easier to imagine that contemporary outgroups may similarly attempt to harm the ingroup.”

Does contact reduce prejudice or does prejudice reduce contact? A longitudinal test of the contact hypothesis among majority and minority groups in three European countries. (2009, background): “Evidence for this mediation hypothesis has come from several cross-sectional studies (Greenland & Brown, 1999; Hewstone et al., 2004, 2005; Islam & Hewstone, 1993), but, as yet, it has not been tested longitudinally.”
We are sorry: Intergroup apologies and their tenuous link with intergroup forgiveness (2013, background): “Furthermore, it was clear that people were more willing to forgive transgressions committed by their own group members than by similar transgressions attributed to the outgroup (Hewstone et al., 2004).”
