Pitner, Ronald O.; Astor, Ron Avi; Benbenishty, Rami; Haj-Yahia, Muhammad M.; Zeira, Anat
Child Development, v74 n2 p413-25 Mar-Apr 2003
Examined effects of negative group stereotypes on reasoning about peer retribution (child hits another child in response to name calling) among 2,604 Arab and Jewish adolescents in Israel. Found evidence that Arab and Jewish students hold stereotypes about one another and that in-group bias affected approval and reasoning about peer retribution only in specific situations. Number of justifications endorsed within social-conventional and personal domains distinguished Arab and Jewish respondents. (Author/KB)
