The goal of the symposium was to facilitate intellectual
exchanges and future collaboration among researchers who sought to understand
how trust emerges and functions within and across groups.
Specifically, participants discussed psychological mechanisms that
were related to ingroup-favoring and/or outgroup-discriminating behavioral
patterns and their adaptive foundations. Each participant discussed
how his or her work shed light on this issue. Here are some questions
addressed:
# What are the links between social cognitive processes and
ingroup behavior?
# Can we expect the same sorts of cultural differences in
group-based behavior as are claimed for cognitive processes (e.g. Nisbett
et al.) and the self concept (e.g. Markus and Kitayama)?
# Is it feasible to propose a "naive theory of groups" that
guides the behavior of people in relation to ingroups and outgroups?
How should we understand the basis of such a naive theory (Evolutionary?
Social structural?)
# What methodological strategies should be employed in addressing
the above questions?
