Primes

• Cultural Friction
  • The resisters are often rational: they perceive, correctly, that the new artifact violates something they value—a structural reading consistent with Tajfel and Turner's (1979) social identity theory, which holds that group members defend in-group categories and norms not from irrationality but from identity-protective motivations grounded in real social structure.

    This sourceBrooks/Cole. Foundational social identity theory: in-group categorization and norm defense are identity-protective and structurally grounded rather than irrational, supplying a mechanism for rational-appearing cultural resistance.

• Ethnocentrism
  • Minimal-group-discrimination paradigm

    This sourceBrooks/Cole. Foundational social identity theory integrating the minimal-group findings: in-group categorization and out-group differentiation are identity-protective, emerging from mere category membership.

• Identification
  • The social-identity finding that in-group identification produces in-group favoritism ports into inclusion practice through structural interventions — cross-cutting categories, superordinate identity construction — designed to widen the identification boundary.
• In-Group / Out-Group
  • Tajfel and Turner (1979) sharpened the answer by demonstrating that the mere act of categorization, prior to any conflict of interest, is sufficient to produce the asymmetry.

• Social Identity Theory
  • Social Identity Theory, developed by Henri Tajfel and John Turner (1979, 1986) and extended as Self-Categorization Theory (Turner et al. 1987), explains the structural process by which individuals come to derive a substantial portion of their self-concept from their membership in social categories, and the behavioral consequences that follow from that derivation.

• Stereotyping
  • Stereotype-driven expectations shape who is perceived as belonging, who is seen as threatening, and who is treated fairly, as Tajfel and Turner (1979) develop in their social identity theory of intergroup behavior.
