Bringing self-determination theory to understand why inter-group behaviors are emitted, two studies were conducted to investigate how group norms and individuals’ congruence with these norms predicted self-determination to pursue two types of inter-group behaviors (parity and discrimination). Experiment 1 (N = 97) manipulated in-group norms in favor of parity versus of discrimination and assessed the behavior participants displayed (congruent or in-congruent with the norm) and their motivations for emitting this behavior. The manipulated norms significantly influenced group members’ behaviors. When the in-group norm was parity, participants whose behavior was congruent with this norm reported more self-determination to emit this behavior. When the in-group norm was pro-discrimination, participants whose behavior was congruent with this norm were less self-determined. Experiment 2 (N = 139) replicated and extended these findings in a more conflictual inter-group setting. Results are discussed in light of motivational and inter-group theories.
