群体间偏见的研究通常采用一种基于优势群体成员心理康复的社会变革模型,以促进群体间的和谐。然而,最近对弱势群体成员减少偏见干预的研究,使心理学家对在历史上不平等的社会中建立和谐关系的后果的理解变得复杂。鼓励弱势群体成员喜欢优势群体成员的干预措施也可能促使弱势群体低估其群体所遭受的不公正待遇,并减少支持挑战社会不平等的行动的动力。因此,心理学家将群体间和谐等同于“良好关系”,将冲突等同于“不良关系”的倾向是有限的。
Research on intergroup prejudice has generally adopted a model of social change that is based around the psychological rehabilitation of members of advantaged groups in order to foster intergroup harmony. Recent studies of prejudice-reduction interventions among members of disadvantaged groups, however, have complicated psychologists' understanding of the consequences of inducing harmonious relations in historically unequal societies. Interventions encouraging disadvantaged-group members to like advantaged-group members may also prompt the disadvantaged to underestimate the injustice suffered by their group and to become less motivated to support action to challenge social inequality. Thus, psychologists' tendency to equate intergroup harmony with "good relations'' and conflict with "bad relations'' is limited.
