Two studies examined perceptions of collective responsibility for the april 20, 1999, shootings at columbine high school in littleton, corolado. Collective responsibility reders tot he perception that others, besides the wrongdoers themselves, are responsible for the event. In study 1, the authors assessed perceptions of the shooters' parents and their peer group (the trenchcoat mafia), whereas study 2 tested perceptions of collective responsibility across a range of groups. In both studies, perceptions of a target group's entitativity predicted judgements of collective responsibility. This relationship was mediated by two situational construals that justify applying collective responsibility : responsibility by commission (encouraging or facilitating the event) and responsibility by ommission (failing to precent the event). Study 2 also determined tha tperceptions of authority predicted judgements of collective responsibility for the columbine shootings and was mediated by inferences of omission. Future directions in collective responsibility research are discussed.
