DESCRIPTION:According to social identity theory\, low self-esteem motivate
 s group members to derogate out-groups\, thus achieving positive in-group 
 distinctiveness and boosting self-esteem. According to the Frankfurt Schoo
 l and status politics theorists\, low self-esteem motivates collective nar
 cissism (i.e.\, resentment for insufficient external recognition of the in
 -group’s importance)\, which predicts out-group derogation. Empirical su
 pport for these propositions has been weak. We revisit them addressing whe
 ther (1) low self-esteem predicts out-group derogation via collective narc
 issism\, and (2) this indirect relationship is only observed after partial
 ling out the positive overlap between collective narcissism and in-group s
 atisfaction (i.e.\, belief that the in-group is of high value and a reason
  to be proud). Results based on cross-sectional (Study 1\, N = 427) and lo
 ngitudinal (Study 2\, N = 853) designs indicated that self-esteem is uniqu
 ely\, negatively linked to collective narcissism and uniquely\, positively
  linked to in-group satisfaction. Results based on cross-sectional (Study 
 3\, N = 506\; Study 4\, N = 1059\; Study 5\, N = 471)\, longitudinal (Stud
 y 6\, N = 410)\, and experimental (Study 7\, N = 253) designs corroborated
  these inferences. Further\, they revealed that the positive overlap betwe
 en collective narcissism and in-group satisfaction obscures the link betwe
 en self-esteem and out-group derogation. \n\n_Agnieszka Golec de Zavala is

 b (collectivenarcissism.com). She is a visiting professor at University of
  Social Sciences and Humanities\, Poznań\, Poland and ISCTE-CIS\, Lisbon\
 , Portugal. She is a former Fulbright Scholar and a Marie Curie Fellow. He
 r research is driven by a question: What makes people prejudiced and what 
 makes them fight in conflicts? She has developed research on the concept o
 f collective narcissism – the belief that one’s own group is exception
 al but not sufficiently recognized by others – that predicts retaliatory
  intergroup hostility\, prejudice\, revengefulness\, political radicalisat
 ion and belief in conspiracy theories. In her recent research she examines
  motivational underpinnings of collective narcissism. She also examines ho
 w reactions to intergroup exclusion are moderated by collective narcissism
 . PrejudiceLab uses methods of neuroscience and physiology to assess the m
 echanisms underlying those reactions.._
