The authors extend recent research concerning the social costs of claiming discrimination by examining men’s and women’s responses to in - group and out - group targets who either blamed a failing grade on discrimination or answer quality. Although participants generally responded more negatively to targets who blamed discrimination, rather than answer quality, dislike was greatest and gender group identification was lowest when participants evaluated an in - group target. Moreover, an in - group target who claimed discrimination was perceived as avoiding personal responsibility for outcomes to a greater extent than was a similar out - group target. Perceptions that the target avoided outcome responsibility by claiming discrimination were shown to mediate the relationship between attribution type and dislike of the in - group target. The authors discuss their results in terms of intragroup processes and suggest that social costs may especially accrue for in - group members when claiming discrimination has implications for the in - group’s social identity.
