Respect People Outside Groups
People may often do inconsiderate things when they are in groups, and people who strongly affiliate with one group of people may naturally want to harm outsiders who are not in that group.
- When people get together in groups, unusual things can happen β both good and bad.
- Groups create important social institutions that an individual could not achieve alone, but there can be a darker side to such alliances:
- Belonging to a group makes people more likely to harm others outside the group.
- In a study that recently went online in the journal NeuroImage, the researchers measured brain activity in a part of the brain involved in thinking about oneself.
- They found that in some people, this activity was reduced when the subjects participated in a competition as part of a group, compared with when they competed as individuals.
- Those people were more likely to harm their competitors than people who did not exhibit this decreased brain activity.
