Group-dependent selective forgetting in Arab–Israeli children
98) aged 8-13 were introduced to a presentation with information about a summer camp program and later listened to either an ingroup (Arab-Israeli) or an outgroup (Jewish-Israeli) member repeat certain details while omitting others. Following this, participants were asked to recall the information from the presentation. We found that listening to an ingroup member impaired children's recall of unmentioned, related items more than unmentioned, unr…
Examining the impact of learning about a resolved conflict on attitudes in an ongoing conflict: Evidence from the Israeli–Palestinian context
A popular intervention for increasing support for peace in violent intergroup conflicts is to describe the peaceful resolution of other conflicts. In four experiments, we tested the effectiveness of this approach in the context of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict by exposing Jewish-Israelis to information about the Northern Ireland conflict and peace process, or about tourism in Northern Ireland as a control. We found that learning about the hist…
The underpinnings of gendered parenting: The role of social dominance orientation, gender essentialism, and gender ideology
Gendered parenting refers to parents’ tendency to promote gender-stereotypic behaviors of their young children. We claim that a central source of gendered parenting is parents’ support for social hierarchy (as captured by their social dominance orientation [SDO]). This is expected because parents high on SDO are more likely to think of gender as a biological dichotomy (gender essentialism), and to believe that men and boys belong in different dom…
Attitude moralization in the context of collective action: How participation in collective action may foster moralization over time
Although much is known about why people engage in collective action participation (e.g., politicized identity, group-based anger), little is known about the psychological consequences of such participation. For example, can participation in collective action facilitate attitude moralization (e.g., moralize their attitudes on the topic)? Based on the idea that collective action contexts often involve a strong social movement fighting against an im…
Mothers’ Motivation for Group-Based Empathy in Their Children as a Function of Type and Extent of Group Identification
Parents vary in the extent to which they want their children to feel empathy toward different groups. In the current investigation, we tested whether Jewish–Israeli mothers’ motivation to have their children feel group-based empathy toward members of their ingroup (Jews) and outgroup (Arabs) differed as a function of the types of group identification mothers experience with their own group – namely attachment to and glorification of Israel. We fo…
Political Ideology in Early Childhood: Making the Case for Studying Young Children in Political Psychology
Research in political psychology largely ignores early childhood. This is likely due to the assumption that young children lack the cognitive capacity and social understanding needed for political thought. Challenging this assumption, we argue that research with young children is both possible and important for political psychologists. We focus on the topic of political ideology to demonstrate our argument. We review recent evidence revealing tha…
