We examined associations between two orientations based on historical group trauma, a form of enduring group victimhood (Perpetual Ingroup Victimhood Orientation [PIVO]) and the belief that one's group might itself become a victimizer (Fear of Victimizing [FOV]), and attitudes, cognitions, and emotions related to intergroup conflicts. PIVO was positively and FOV was negatively related to aggressive attitudes and emotions toward the outgroup (Studies 1a-1c, Israeli-Palestinian conflict), and to the attribution of responsibility for a series of hostilities to the outgroup (Study 3, Israeli-Palestinian conflict). PIVO was negatively and FOV positively related to support for forgiveness and reconciliation (Study 2, Northern Ireland conflict). In Experimental Study 4, FOV predicted greater accuracy in remembering harm, regardless of victims' group identity, whereas PIVO was associated with reduced accuracy only when victims were Palestinians (outgroup members). Taken together, these findings indicate that both orientations have a significant impact on intergroup conflicts and their resolution.
我们考察了两种基于历史群体创伤的取向之间的关联，一种是持久的群体受害取向（持续内群体受害取向 [PIVO]），另一种是担心自己的群体可能成为加害者的信念（加害恐惧 [FOV]），以及与群体间冲突相关的态度、认知和情绪。PIVO 与对外部群体的攻击态度和情绪呈正相关，FOV 与对外部群体的攻击态度和情绪呈负相关（研究 1a-1c，以巴冲突），并与将一系列敌对行动归因于外部群体（研究 3，以巴冲突）有关。PIVO 与对宽恕和和解的支持呈负相关，而 FOV 则呈正相关（研究 2，北爱尔兰冲突）。在实验研究 4 中，无论受害者的群体身份如何，FOV 都预示着对伤害的记忆更准确，而 PIVO 只有在受害者是巴勒斯坦人（外部群体成员）时才与准确性降低有关。综上所述，这些发现表明，这两种取向都对群体间冲突及其解决有重大影响。
