Out-group homogeneity effects in natural and minimal groups.
Abstract
Reviews literature relevant to the out-group homogeneity effect. The review assesses whether the effect emerges in both natural- and minimal-group contexts. Data relevant to the out-group homogeneity effects are examined for 3 types of dependent measures. Whereas strong support for the effect is obtained across all measures in natural-group settings, no consistent effect is observed in minimal-group settings. Some theories (need-based motives, salience of self, and generalized homogeneity beliefs) predict the occurrence of the effect in both natural and minimal groups, whereas others (group-specific homogeneity beliefs and information encoding and retrieval) predict the occurrence of the effect only for natural groups. The question of whether conditions exist under which the out-group homogeneity can be produced in the minimal-group setting is addressed.

“The misestimation of the extremism of rival groups via stereotypical generalization is accompanied by a tendency to hyperrepresent outgroup homogeneity (Ostrom & Sedikides, 1992).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
