August 11, 2015 is the 50th Anniversary commemoration of the Watts Riots. The commemoration will include a series of media, educational and community-based programs that highlight issues relating to social justice, community policing, and group relations. With the heightened sense of group identity through the community focus on the Watts commemoration as well as other incidents, one can survey the population of Los Angeles to examine attitudes to race, ethnicity, and in-group vs. out-group. The questions along with survey experiments will provide us with a better understanding of the lasting impact of the riots as well as impact of other incidents that have occurred throughout the past year. The finidngs can be used to develop policy and programming recommendations for the L.A. Human Relations Commission, community partners, city council, and the major's office. They findings could also be relevant for other communities with heightened intergroup tensions. This includes areas where community and law enforcement controversies have raged, such as Baltimore, Ferguson, and Charleston.This projects holds promise for political scientists and social psychologists interested in questions related to particularistic and superordinate identities. First, the Los Angeles focus regarding the Watts anniversiary allows for understanding of whether and how random exposure to particularistic and/or superordinate identity cues against a "real world" backdrop of increased public consideration of intergroup boundaries produces results different from what scholars have disccovered in using identity primes in the lab or survey-based studies outside of areas such as this one. Second, the survey instrument enables this project to examine the effects of identity priming on a wider array of outcome meaures than imployed in political science to date. Instead of focusing just on future political behavior such as voting, demonstrating, etc. the focus is broaden to focus on neighborhood, social network, policing, mental health-related issues, etc. This broader focus enables broader insights into identity-based effects.

2015年8月11日是瓦茨骚乱50周年纪念日。 纪念活动将包括一系列媒体、教育和社区项目，突出与社会正义、社区警务和群体关系有关的问题。 随着社区对瓦茨纪念活动以及其他事件的关注，群体认同感的增强，人们可以对洛杉矶的人口进行调查，以检查对种族、民族和内群体与外群体的态度。 这些问题沿着调查实验将使我们更好地了解骚乱的持久影响以及过去一年中发生的其他事件的影响。 这些结果可用于为洛杉矶制定政策和规划建议。人际关系委员会，社区合作伙伴，市理事会，和主要的办公室。 他们的调查结果也可能对群体间紧张关系加剧的其他社区具有相关性。 这包括社区和执法争议激烈的地区，如巴尔的摩，弗格森和查尔斯顿。这个项目为对特殊性和上位身份相关问题感兴趣的政治科学家和社会心理学家带来了希望。 首先，洛杉矶的重点关于瓦茨周年纪念允许了解是否以及如何随机暴露于特殊性和/或上位的身份线索对“真实的世界”的背景下，增加公众考虑群体间的边界产生的结果不同学者发现在实验室或调查为基础的研究以外的领域，如这一个。 第二，调查工具使这个项目能够研究身份启动对更广泛的结果测量的影响，而不是在政治学中的内爆。 而不是只关注未来的政治行为，如投票，示威等，重点是扩大到关注邻里，社会网络，警务，心理健康相关的问题等，这种更广泛的关注，使更广泛的见解基于身份的影响。
