发展方法为理解群体间态度和行为变化的起源、习得和性质提供了独特的优势。发展研究主要集中在理解和解决消极的群体间态度和行为。我们断言，群体认同和群体动态不一定会导致歧视和偏见行为，但实际上可以有助于包容性取向。此外，这些取向并不是凭空出现的，而是取决于更广泛的社会背景和特定的群体差异。更广泛的社会和文化方法对于理解群体间态度对健康社会发展以及创建公平公正社会的影响非常重要。
A developmental approach provides a unique vantage point for understanding the origins, acquisition, and nature of change regarding intergroup attitudes and behavior. Developmental research has focused predominantly on understanding and addressing negative intergroup attitudes and behaviors. We assert that group identity and group dynamics do not have to lead to discriminatory and prejudicial behavior but can actually contribute to an inclusive orientation. Moreover, these orientations do not occur in a vacuum but depend on the broader social context and the specific group distinctions. A broader social and cultural approach is important for understanding the implications of intergroup attitudes for healthy social development as well as the creation of a fair and just society.
