内群体投射模型假定群体成员将内群体特征投射到一个上位范畴上。目前的研究旨在隔离这一过程的认知基础。如果内群投射是一个自发的认知过程，那么上位范畴启动应该促进内群原型而不是外群原型的加工。三项研究支持这一假设，通过比较阈下语义启动在两个不同的人群中，内与组间的情况下，并与内组原型操纵，改变组间的背景。结果表明，上位范畴启动促进了内群而非外群特征的加工（实验1），并且这些特征依赖于内群原型的特定内容，而内群原型的特定内容在不同的语境中被突显（实验2和3）。研究结果表明，上位范畴的认知表征是基于内群体特征的，并且这种表征是依赖于语境的。
The ingroup projection model posits that group members project ingroup features onto a superordinate category. The present research aimed at isolating the cognitive underpinnings of this process. If ingroup projection is a spontaneous cognitive process, a superordinate category prime should facilitate the processing of the ingroup prototype rather than the outgroup prototype. Three studies support this hypothesis by comparing subliminal semantic priming in two different populations, an intra- versus intergroup situation, and with an ingroup prototype manipulated by changing the intergroup context. Results indicated that the superordinate category prime facilitated the processing of ingroup rather than outgroup traits (Experiment 1) and that these traits depended on the particular content of the ingroup prototype made salient by different contexts (Experiments 2 and 3). The findings indicate that the cognitive representation of the superordinate category is based on ingroup traits and that this representation is context dependent.
