TY - JOUR PY - 2019// TI - Interminority contact and solidarity under conflict: evidence from the Hungarian and Roma minorities in Romania JO - Basic and applied social psychology A1 - Cernat, Vasile SP - 326 EP - 339 VL - 41 IS - 5 N2 - This study investigated the relationship between interminority contact and solidarity underconflict. The analysis of representative samples of Hungarian (N = 604) and Roma (N = 602) ethnics from Romania revealed restricted positivity among the high-status minority (i.e., positive associations of interminority contact with outgroup attitudes and support for nonspecific pro-outgroup policies, but negative associations with support for tangible actions helping the outgroup) and toxic positivity among the low-status minority (i.e., improved attitudes toward the Hungarians but decreased support for specific pro-ingroup policies). Moreover, for both minority groups, contact with the majority was associated with diminished support for specific pro-ingroup and pro-outgroup policies.
