Yayın The role of cross-group friendships, outgroup perspective-taking, and ingroup identification on competitive victimhood beliefs(Turkish Psychologists Association, 2021-12) Bağcı, Sabahat Çiğdem; Piyale, Zeynep Ecem; Karaköse, Selin; Şen, EzgiIn conflict-ridden societies, both groups often believe that they are the sole undeserved victim of the conflict. The current study aimed to examine Turkish and Kurdish ethnic group members’ competitive victimhood beliefs in the context of intergroup contact theory and investigate whether two social-psychological variables – outgroup perspective-taking and ingroup identification – significantly mediated this association. The sample consisted of 234 participants (142 Turkish and 92 Kurdish; 152 Females, 81 Males, 1 Unknown; Mage = 22.39, SD = 3.96). Participants completed online surveys including demographic information, and measures of intergroup contact (cross-group friendship quality), outgroup perspective-taking, ingroup identification, and competitive victimhood beliefs. Findings demonstrated that the quality of cross-group friendships was negatively associated with competitive victimhood beliefs and as expected this association was significantly mediated by increased outgroup perspective-taking and decreased ingroup identification. Results imply the need to study intergroup contact and competitive victimhood beliefs simultaneously to facilitate the understanding of reconciliation processes in conflictual intergroup relationships.
