Abstract |
---|
The aim of this paper is to investigate the conditions under which individual feelings of uncertainty lead to intolerant political attitudes and behavior. Drawing on social psychological Uncertainty-Identity Theory, we assume that (1) feelings of uncertainty are aversive, (2) people are motivated to reduce uncertainty, particularly if they are uncertain about self-relevant things, (3) uncertainty can be effectively reduced by group identification, and (4) high entitativity groups (i.e., those with clear boundaries, internal homogeneity, clear structure or common goals) are better than others at reducing uncertainty. |
