        • There is much evidence that shows in-group favouritism (Crocker and Luhtanen, 1990; Lalonde,199 Tajfel et al., 1970, 1971).
        • The theory has a useful practical application.

        • By focusing only on groups, no other factors are taken into account. The theory does not measure how much prejudice there is, such as whether there are some situations in which there is greater prejudice against the out-group.

    • realistic conflict theory
      • Whenever two or more groups are in competition for the same resources, conflict will occur and prejudice follows.
      • Any groups competing for the same resources will tend to be in-group and outgroup (with the out-group threatening the in-group for resources) so the theory does link to social identity theory, though they are seen as two separate theories.
      • Prejudice is more likely if the resource is finite, such as territory. This is called ‘zero-sum’, where there is one winner and one loser.
        • It may be that some resources are such that one side can ‘win’ some of the resource and the other lose some – conflict will then be less fierce.
