作者回顾和评价了各种解释的倾向,群体间的关系是更多的竞争,或更少的合作,比个体间的关系(不连续效应)。他们区分两个一般的观点,每一个都包括一套解释的不连续性效应。恐惧和贪婪的观点认为,群体间的关系比个体间的关系具有更大的恐惧和贪婪。群体决策视角在促进对混合动机情境的理性理解方面对群体讨论起着至关重要的作用。在一般情况下,从恐惧和贪婪的角度的解释被认为是更一致的经验记录比解释从群体决策的角度。作者提出,一个完整的理解的不连续性效应尚未实现。
The authors review and evaluate various explanations for the tendency of intergroup relations to be more competitive, or less cooperative, than interindividual relations (the discontinuity effect). They distinguish between two general perspectives, each comprising a set of explanations for the discontinuity effect. The fear and greed perspective assumes that intergroup relations are characterised by greater fear and greed than are interindividual relations. The group decision-making perspective assumes a crucial role for group discussion in facilitating rational comprehension of mixed-motive situations. In general, explanations from the fear and greed perspective were found to be more consistent with the empirical record than explanations from the group decision-making perspective. The authors propose that a complete understanding of the discontinuity effect is yet to be achieved.
