Such experience is not essential and it is intended that all students, regardless of the knowledge they have will be able to engage in critical debate about the nature, characteristics and application of psychological theory in understanding social issues in Britain. The main aims of the course are to: • Develop critical appreciation of the contributions and limitations of psychological theory and research in understanding social issues and in informing potential intervention strategies. • Increase knowledge of the British contribution to the development of psychology as a discipline, and awareness of the work of some leading historical and contemporary British social psychologists. • Consider the importance of an evolutionary perspective in contemporary psychology, and consider its relevance to understanding and tackling current social issues. • Raise awareness of selected issues relating to gender and sexuality, civil disorder and violence; immigration and prejudice, and enironment and climate change in Great Britain and the policies and strategies currently pursued by government to address them.

The paper deals with six main issues: (1) the main types of intergroup contact, and whether they are effective; (2) under what conditions intergroup contact is most effective; (3) by what proc- esses intergroup contact works; (4) the extensive effects of intergroup contact beyond changes in explicit attitudes towards outgroups; (5) the major policy implications of intergroup contact; and (6) criticisms of intergroup contact, and rejoinders to them.

We focus on five issues and identify areas for future research: (a) measurement and conceptual issues (especially in-group favoritism vs. out-group derogation, and explicit vs. implicit measures of bias); (b) modern theories of bias highlighting motivational explanations (social identity, optimal distinctiveness, un- certainty reduction, social dominance, terror management); (c) key moderators of bias, especially those that exacerbate bias (identification, group size, status and power, threat, positive-negative asymmetry, personality and individual differences); (d ) reduction of bias (individual vs. intergroup approaches, especially models of social categoriza- tion); and (e) the link between intergroup bias and more corrosive forms of social hostility.

  • Fiftyodd Years of Intergroup Contact: from Hypothesis to Integrated Theory
    374 The British Psychological British Journal of Social Psychology (2011), 50, 374–386 Society C 2011 The British Psychological Society www.wileyonlinelibrary.com Fifty-odd years of inter-group contact: From hypothesis to integrated theory ∗ Miles Hewstone1 and Hermann Swart2 1University of Oxford, UK 2Stellenbosch University, South Africa We review 50-odd years of research on Allport’s (1954) ‘contact hypothesis’, to assess progress, problems, and prospects. We chart the progress that has been made in understanding two distinct forms of contact: direct and indirect. We highlight the progress made in understanding the effects of each type of contact, as well as both moderating and mediating factors, and emphasize the multiple impacts of direct contact, especially. We then consider some of the main critiques of inter-group contact, focusing on empirical issues and whether contact impedes social change, and provide a research agenda for the coming years. We conclude that this body of work no longer merits the modest title of ‘hypothesis’, but fully deserves acknowledgement as an integrated and influential theory. A celebration of the first 50 years of this journal provides an opportunity to assess progress, problems, and prospects, of research on the ‘contact hypothesis’. The idea that positive inter-group contact could be used to promote better inter-group relations and reduce prejudice was definitely ‘made in America’, initially by the sociologist Robin Williams (1947) and latterly, and most famously, by the social psychologist Gordon Allport (1954). But subsequently, British social psychologists have not only made some of the most significant theoretical and empirical contributions, but also contributed to critiques of the ‘contact hypothesis’.1 The first volume of the journal appeared in 1962, just 6 years after Allport’s classic The Nature of Prejudice, whose 16th chapter (‘The Effect of Contact’) contained the systematization of ideas that was to prove so fruitful for later scholars, including many publishing in this journal.

We, the American Sociological Association (ASA), acknowledge that academic institutions, indeed the nation-state itself, was founded upon and continues to enact exclusions and erasures of Indigenous Peoples. This acknowledgement demonstrates a commitment to beginning the process of working to dismantle ongoing legacies of settler colonialism, and to recognize the hundreds of Indigenous Nations who continue to resist, live, and uphold their sacred relations across their lands. We also pay our respect to Indigenous elders past, present, and future and to those who have stewarded this land throughout the generations.

Penner Wayne State University, Karmanos Cancer Institute, Research Center for Group Dynamics, University of Michigan Before I begin my introduction of this year’s winner of the Kurt Lewin Award, I want to recognize the other members of the award committee, Marilynn Brewer, James Jones, and Mark Snyder, and thank them for their hard work and spirit of collegiality in the committee’s deliberations. We had a number of outstanding candidates and there were several iterations before we reached a final decision. It was a real pleasure to go through this process with them. On behalf of the Committee and Society for the Psychological Study of Social issues (SPSSI), I am extremely pleased and honored to present the 2012 Kurt Lewin Award to Miles Ronald Cole Hewstone Professor of Social Psychology and University Lecturer in Social Psychology and Fellow of New College, University of Oxford. This award has been given annually for the last 54 years and the names of the people who have received it represent an almost overwhelming list of truly distinguished contributors to research on social issues and problems over the last half century. Our honoree today is a worthy addition to this list. Even when presenting an award like this, I am constitutionally incapable of not mentioning myself, so let me begin my introduction by noting that this is the fourth time I have had the pleasure of introducing the winner of the Lewin award.
