The present study focuses on two aspects of this threshold: it investigates processes, which may influence the absence of ingroup favouritism in the negative domain, and it tests ‘aggravating’ variables, which seem to be suficient to elicit ingroup favouritism even in the negative domain. Results show that ingroup favouritism occurred within the negative domain when several aggravating conditions were included, namely high salience of size- and status- similarity between groups and high ingroup identification. Furthermore, subjects under minimal conditions tended to overestimate relative size as well as relative status of their ingroup. The perception of group members to belong to a high status majority is interpreted as a sufficient condition counteracting tendencies towards ingroup favouritism within the negative domain.

The dependent measures included evaluative attributes which referred either to a status-related or to a status-unrelated dimension. Ss took part in group experiments in which minority–majority conditions were present and in which groups had to rate each other. As expected, generally there was in-group favoritism in the positive domain in which inferior minorities showed highest biases. In-group favoring evaluations in the negative domain appeared only under aggravating conditions (i.e., when the in-group had inferior and minority status). However, while this pattern of findings was true with respect to status-unrelated measures, there was a mere reproduction of the status manipulations on measures which were related to the status differential.
