 abstract = {Previous research indicates that people who are highly identified with their groups                tend to remain committed to them under threat. This study examines the                generalizability of this effect to (a) a real-life context involving the perception                that others view the ingroup (Australians) as intolerant of minorities and (b)                various dimensions of social identification. The sample comprised 213 respondents to                a random mail survey. Perceived threat was inversely related to self-stereotyping                (i.e. perceptions of self-ingroup similarity), but only for individuals with weak                subjective ties to other group members. Threat perceptions were also predictive of                enhanced judgments of within-group variability on threat-relevant dimensions,                particularly for individuals with weaker ingroup ties. Various strategies for coping                with a threatened social identity are linked to different facets of social identification.},
