چکیده (انگلیسی):

In three studies we examined whether the anticipation of group-based guilt, shame and anger predicts the desire to undertake collective action against a proposed in group transgression. In Studies 1 (N=179) and 2 (N=186), the relation between appraising a proposed in group transgression as illegitimate and collective action was mediated (or partially mediated) by anticipated group-based shame and anger. In Study 3 (N= 128) participants with high self-investment group identification were less willing to engage in collective
action against the prospective in group transgression when aversive anticipated group-based emotions were made salient. This effect was mediated by anticipated group-based shame. We discuss the implications of these results with regard to collective action and the morality of intergroup behavior.
