In the Context of Initial Orientation, Predicting Whether a Person

question 18

Multiple Choice

In the context of initial orientation, predicting whether a person will focus on individual identity or group identity is difficult, but the additive presence of five factors increases the odds that a communicator will see a conversation as an intergroup encounter. Identify a true statement about these factors.

• A) High group-solidarity suggests a higher likelihood of focus on personal identity rather than on social identity.
• B) The more specific and negative the images people have of an out-group, the more likely they are to think of the other in terms of personal identity.
• C) The "we-centered" focus of collectivism emphasizes similarity and mutual concern within the culture.
• D) If there is a distressing history of interaction, both interactants will tend to ascribe that outcome to the individual rather than to the individual's social identity.
