| Research Abstract |
We conducted three studies from multifaceted perspectives to investigate whether in-group identity functions as a psychosocial resource. The first study examined the relationship between in-group identity and positive mental health. Results suggested that the relationship between high social values, depression and fewer perceived stressful events was mediated by high in-group identification, which in turn led to expectations about support from the in-group, but not from the out-group. The second study investigated how a threat to the self-esteem of independent and interdependent individuals influenced their in-group identity. The results suggested that independent people reporting more threats to their self-esteem, identified with the in-group when it had a high social value. The third study demonstrated that identifying with the present reference in-group intensified psychological pain of future-life exclusion.
