Experiences and Beliefs as Predictors of Ethnic Identity and Intergroup Relations

Ethnic group self-identification, negative and positive interracial experiences, perceptions of racial bias, social support, just-world beliefs, and psychological distress were each associated with various components of ethnic identity and are discussed within a counseling perspective.
