本文回顾了群际焦虑的研究，并将其置于一个理论模型的背景下，该模型指定了群际焦虑的前因和后果的类别。它提出，群际焦虑是由三个相互关联的组件：情感组件，认知组件，和生理组件。群际焦虑的潜在原因包括人格特质（例如，社会优势取向，归因复杂性），态度和相关认知（例如，消极的期望，刻板印象），个人经历（例如，消极接触），以及情境因素（例如，语言障碍的存在，结构化与非结构化的互动）。潜在的后果包括态度和其他认知（例如，刻板印象，负面期望），影响（例如，恐惧，愤怒），和行为（例如，消极行为（negative behaviors）关于减少群体间焦虑的理论和研究（例如，组间联系，直接或间接的跨组友谊）也被提出。讨论探讨了这些研究的理论，研究和实践的影响。
This article reviews studies of intergroup anxiety and places them in the context of a theoretical model that specifies categories of antecedents and consequences of intergroup anxiety. It is proposed that intergroup anxiety is comprised of three interrelated components: an affective component, a cognitive component, and a physiological component. The potential causes of intergroup anxiety include personality traits (e.g., social dominance orientation, attributional complexity), attitudes and related cognitions (e.g., negative expectations, stereotypes), personal experience (e.g., negative contact), and situational factors (e.g., the presence of linguistic barriers, structured vs. unstructured interactions). The potential consequences include attitudes and other cognitions (e.g., stereotypes, negative expectations), affect (e.g., fear, anger), and behavior (e.g., avoidance, negative behaviors). Theory and research on the reduction of intergroup anxiety (e.g., intergroup contact, direct or indirect cross-group friendships) are also presented. The discussion explores the implications of these studies for theory, research, and practice.
