“Counter-stereotypical AI should not go so far as to suppress dissenting or traditional opinions or coerce uniformity of thought.” (Hermann, 2025)

AI offers promising potential. Its strengths—repeated, direct, unavoidable (embedded in daily life), private, non-judgmental, collaborative, need-satisfying (designed to support)—could foster more inclusive, sustained, and constructive intergroup dialogue (Hermann, 2025).

Led by the brilliant @shelleymckeown.bsky.social we present a Perspectives article on why and how #IntergroupContact can be a valuable tool in educational settings. We hope this can facilitate a fruitful dialogue between researchers and teachers bpspsychub.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1...
Happy to share this new piece on bridging differences in the US, just published in @thefulcrum-us.bsky.social and inspired by the report on #socialconnection recently released by @moreincommonus.bsky.social

Is there a link between positive intergroup contact and meta-attitude accuracy? Yes - for both majority and minority groups! Have a look at our new paper led by the brilliant Ipek Guvensoy 🙂 doi.org/10.1177/1368... #PrejudiceResearch #IntergroupContact
Figure 2. Interaction effects of host-language proficiency and cultural novelty on socializing with domestic students. Note: Part A depicts conditional main effects of host-language proficiency at +1SD, mean, and −1SD of cultural novelty. Part B depicts Johnson-Neyman regions of interaction statistical significance.

They're not the only group to show this.
But the message seems to be slow to get out there.
People, laypeople & researchers alike, often want simple answers to questions like: does #intergroupcontact "work"?
Well, it does. But like most of psychology, it's more nuanced than a yes/no answer.
I love how papers like this--by taking a multi-level approach, can help us to understand how immigrant influx at one level (national) boosts prejudice, but at another (local) does the opposite. (PS go #intergroupcontact!)
Worth getting your head around this. These scholars are really onto something
sharing a recent interview about #bridgingdifferences, and many of the social, psychological, and emotional processes involved when people from different groups come together for #intergroupcontact 🙏

#PrejudiceResearch #IntergroupContact
One of social psychology’s great lessons is that prejudice decreases with friendly social contact between people of equal status, while minimal contact sustains prejudice. In today’s world, anti-immigrant sentiment in both Germany and the U.S. runs strongest in states with the fewest immigrants. West Virginians, whose state has the lowest proportion of undocumented immigrants, have been most likely to disagree that “the growing number of newcomers from other countries strengthens American society.”
I also like his phrasing here, re "great lesson" we've learned from #IntergroupContact
Cool study #PrejudiceResearch
Drafted into Vietnam service? White men expressed less anti-Black racism.

"The Longitudinal Relationship Between Youth Intergroup Contact and Social Cohesion Outcomes in Two Divided Societies" by McKeown et al. is a really good article.
