Group Polarization01:01

Group Polarization

34.0K
Group polarization is the strengthening of an original group attitude following the discussion of views within a group (Teger & Pruitt, 1967). That is, if a group initially favors a viewpoint, after discussion the group consensus is likely a stronger endorsement of the viewpoint. Conversely, if the group was initially opposed to a viewpoint, group discussion would likely lead to stronger opposition.

People all belong to a gender, race, age, and social economic group. These groups provide a powerful source of our identity and self-esteem (Tajfel & Turner, 1979) and serve as our in-groups. An in-group is a group that we identify with or see ourselves as belonging to.

Conservative Forces

11.9K
According to the law of conservation of energy, any transition between kinetic and potential energy conserves the total energy of the system. Hence, the work done by a conservative force is completely reversible. It is path independent, which means that we can start and stop at any two points in the transition, and the total energy of the system (kinetic plus potential energy at these points) will remain conserved. This is characteristic of a conservative force. Some important examples of...

Robbers Cave

14.2K
During the 1950s, the landmark Robbers Cave experiment demonstrated that when groups must compete with one another, intergroup conflict, hostility, and even violence may result. At the Oklahoman summer camp, two troops of boys—termed the Rattlers and the Eagles—took part in a week-long tournament. During this time, their negativity culminated in derogatory name-calling, fistfights, and even vandalism and destruction of property. However, this work also revealed that such tension...

Secondary Motives: Affiliation Motivation and Aggression Motivation

265
Affiliation motivation is the intrinsic desire to connect with others and belong to a social group, which plays a crucial role in forming and maintaining personal relationships. This type of motivation is essential for psychological well-being, as it provides individuals with a sense of community and support. An example of this is a student who joins a study group in order to feel a sense of connection. People with high affiliation motivation actively seek social approval, take satisfaction in...

Area of Science:

  • Political Science
  • Electoral Studies
  • Public Policy

Background:

  • Single-issue referendums can significantly impact political landscapes.
  • The UK's European Union referendum presented a critical case study for political realignment.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To analyze the effect of the European Union referendum on the Conservative Party.
  • To investigate how individual Member of Parliament (MP) stances influenced electoral outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a novel dataset tracking MP opinions on EU membership.
  • Analyzed election results for Conservative MPs between 2015 and 2022.
  • Employed statistical models to assess the impact of ideological shifts.

Main Results:

  • Conservative MPs who maintained a pro-EU position faced significant electoral disadvantages.
  • The likelihood of electoral loss was strongly predicted by the safety of parliamentary seats.
  • Resistance to switching to a pro-Leave stance correlated with negative electoral consequences.

Conclusions:

  • Political parties are highly susceptible to the pressures of single-issue politics.
  • Referendums on divisive issues can exacerbate party realignment and contribute to populism.
  • Understanding MP responses to referendums is crucial for party strategy and democratic stability.
