Benefits potential backlashes allies engaging

项目摘要

The aim of this project is to study the benefits and potential backlashes of allies engaging in solidarity-based collective action from four perspectives: a) the third party perspective, b) the authority’s perspective, c) the minority’s perspective, and d) the perspective of allies.The project made significant progress so far. We have conducted six of the proposed eight studies and conducted eight additional studies in order to more systematically examine the research questions in response to the reviewers’ comments. Given that reviewers criticized the lack of a strong theoretical foundation, we wrote a theoretical review paper on different “types” of allies. We propose that advantaged group allies can be motivated 1) by personal benefits (personal self-interest motivation), 2) on the condition that the status of their own group is maintained (ingroup protection motivation), and/or 3) to improve the status of the disadvantaged group knowing that this will affect the status of their own group (outgroup-focused motivation). Comparing the effects of members of advantaged and disadvantaged groups, we found that, as expected, allies have beneficial effects on observers; they are more likely to identify with the protest movement when more allies are present. In contrast, the presence of allies did not greatly affect targets – allies are evaluated negatively only when they displayed dominant behavior. In terms of mutual evaluations of targets and allies, targets are more likely to positively evaluate allies, whereas allies are more likely to positively evaluate targets. Further, we found that cross-group contact with disadvantaged group members does not turn advantaged group members into allies. Instead, advantaged group members are more likely to engage in solidarity-based collective action only if they engage in politicized contact and like their contact partner.We ask for a renewal for further 18 months. Although the project went very well and revealed important findings, it needs additional work to explain unexpected results and to complete a comprehensive study of ally action. The renewal proposal has three main objectives. First, we aim to finish two projects examining the effects of allies on decision-makers (project 2), and different motivations of allies compared to targets (project 3). Second, we need to collect additional data for two projects. In project 4, we aim to examine more carefully which types of actions allies are willing to engage in. In project 5, we will test for boundary conditions of ally support and aim to manipulate the mediators in order to find more evidence for our proposed causal model. Third, we aim to write manuscripts for project 1 and 7. This renewal would greatly benefit the project by allowing us to systematically examine the questions, resulting in more and higher impact publications. Further, we aim to organize a special issue on ally action, which would help to make our research more visible.

该项目的目的是从四个角度研究盟友参与基于团结的集体行动的好处和潜在的反弹：a）第三方视角，b）当局视角，c）少数派视角，d）盟友视角。该项目迄今为止取得了重大进展。我们已经进行了拟议的八项研究中的六项，并进行了八项额外的研究，以便根据审稿人的意见更系统地审查研究问题。鉴于评论家批评缺乏坚实的理论基础，我们写了一篇关于不同“类型”盟友的理论评论论文。我们提出，优势群体盟友的动机可以是：1）个人利益（个人自利动机），2）在维持自己群体地位的条件下（内群体保护动机），和/或3）改善弱势群体的地位，因为知道这会影响自己群体的地位（外群体关注动机）。比较优势群体和弱势群体成员的影响，我们发现，正如预期的那样，盟友对观察者有有利的影响；当有更多盟友在场时，他们更有可能认同抗议运动。相比之下，盟友的存在并没有对目标产生太大影响——只有当盟友表现出主导行为时，他们才会受到负面评价。从目标与盟友的相互评价来看，目标更可能积极评价盟友，而盟友更可能积极评价目标。此外，我们发现与弱势群体成员的跨群体接触并不能将优势群体成员变成盟友。相反，只有当优势群体成员进行政治化接触并喜欢他们的接触伙伴时，他们才更有可能参与基于团结的集体行动。我们要求再续签 18 个月。尽管该项目进展顺利并揭示了重要的发现，但仍需要额外的工作来解释意外的结果并完成对盟友行动的全面研究。更新提案有三个主要目标。首先，我们的目标是完成两个项目，检查盟友对决策者的影响（项目 2），以及与目标相比盟友的不同动机（项目 3）。其次，我们需要为两个项目收集额外的数据。在项目 4 中，我们的目标是更仔细地检查盟友愿意采取哪些类型的行动。在项目 5 中，我们将测试盟友支持的边界条件，并旨在操纵调解者，以便为我们提出的因果模型找到更多证据。第三，我们的目标是为项目 1 和 7 撰写手稿。这次更新将使我们能够系统地研究问题，从而产生更多、更高影响力的出版物，从而使该项目受益匪浅。此外，我们的目标是组织一本关于盟友行动的特刊，这将有助于使我们的研究更加引人注目。
