Social Identity Theory on Jigsaw Method - Dictionary of Arguments
Haslam I 226 Jigsaw method/Social identity theory: Building on social categorization and social identity principles, the key idea of the common ingroup identity model is that factors that induce members of different groups to recategorize themselves as members of the same, more inclusive group can reduce intergroup bias and promote cooperation through cognitive and motivational processes involving ingroup favouritism(Aronson et al. 1978(1)). >Jigsaw method/Aronson; Recategorization: changes the conceptual representations of the different groups from an ‘us’ versus ‘them’ orientation to a more inclusive, superordinate connection: ‘we’ (Turner, Hogg, Oakes, Reicher and Wetherell, 1987)(2). Social identity: Once common identity is salient, the ways members of different racial- and ethnic-group members sharing that identity are perceived and responded to are transformed (see Gaertner et al. 2016(3). 1.
