越来越多的研究证明了群体间接触在减少群体间领域的恐惧、威胁和焦虑方面的重要性。在这里，我们关注的是群体间接触的监管效益。我们假设过去的群体间接触有助于从压力的群体间评估中恢复过来。白人和黑人参与者在两名白人或两名黑人面试官面前完成了一项压力评估任务，同时评估了自主神经系统和激素反应。当研究参与者在压力任务后如何恢复时，小组间接触预示着自主神经和神经内分泌反应的生理恢复速度更快。在不同的背景下，从压力中恢复对生理弹性的重要性进行了讨论。
A growing body of research has demonstrated the importance of intergroup contact in reducing fear, threat and anxiety in intergroup domains. Here we focus on the regulatory benefits of intergroup contact. We hypothesized that past intergroup contact would facilitate recovery from a stressful intergroup evaluation. White and Black participants completed a stressful evaluative task in the presence of two White or two Black interviewers while autonomic nervous system and hormonal responses were assessed. When examining how participants recovered after the stressful task, intergroup contact predicted faster physiological recovery for both autonomic and neuroendocrine reactivity. The importance of recovery from stress for physiological resilience in diverse contexts is discussed.
