1.1 Social identity in industrial psychology: concepts, controversies and contributions

Sociale identiteitstheorie: Deze theorie legt uit hoe mensen hun identiteit definiëren op basis
van hun lidmaatschap van sociale groepen. Dit kan invloed hebben op hun gedrag, percepties
en interacties op de werkplek.
Deze zoektocht naar positieve onderscheidenheid betekent dat wanneer het zelfbeeld van
mensen wordt bepaald in termen van 'wij' in plaats van 'ik', ze willen dat 'wij' anders en bij
voorkeur beter zijn dan 'zij', om zich goed te voelen over wie ze zijn en wat ze doen.
In-groep en out-groep dynamiek: Werknemers identificeren zich vaak sterk met hun eigen
team (in-groep), wat kan leiden tot stereotypering of discriminatie ten opzichte van andere
teams (out-groepen) binnen de organisatie.
Ingroup favoritism (in-groep favoritisme), oftewel de neiging om de eigen groep (de in-
groep) positiever te beoordelen dan andere groepen (de out-groep). Ze identificeerden drie
variabelen waarop een dit resultaat afhangt.
1. Identificatie met de in-groep: Hoe sterk mensen zich identificeren met hun groep en
hun groepslidmaatschap zien als een belangrijk onderdeel van wie ze zijn. Hoe sterker
deze identificatie, hoe groter de kans dat ze hun groep zullen bevoordelen.
2. Vergelijking en competitie tussen groepen: Of de situatie of context een reden geeft
om groepen met elkaar te vergelijken of om te concurreren. Als er bijvoorbeeld
competitie is tussen afdelingen op het werk, kan dit de neiging tot in-groep favoritisme
versterken.
3. Relevantie van de andere groep (out-groep): Hoe belangrijk de andere groep wordt
gezien in vergelijking met je eigen groep. Dit hangt af van de status van beide
groepen. Als de andere groep als belangrijk of bedreigend wordt gezien, kan dit het in-
groep favoritisme versterken.
