Isi artikel

A social identity approach to the investigation of group - based reactions to a merger is outlined, in which a merger is analyzed in terms of the continuation or change of the pre - merger group identity. In two experiments, the relationship between pre - merger identification, post - merger identification, and ingroup bias was investigated using a minimal group paradigm. Results from both studies showed that the perceived continuation of the premerger group identity in the post - merger group strengthened the positive relationship between pre - merger identification and identification with the superordinate post - merger group. Moreover, perceived continuation strengthened, rather than reduced, ingroup bias at the subordinate level of the merged groups. Some theoretical and practical implications are discussed.
