Stage 1: In-group formation:
the two groups were kept apart for a week to help them form relationships and establish group norms. They had to work together to achieve common goals.
Stage 2: Friction Phase:
In the second week, the two groups were made aware of each other's existence and a tournament was set up where the two groups had to compete in activities such as tug of war. Points were awarded and rewards were given to those with the most.
Stage 3: Integration Phase:
Superordinate goals were introduced to see if prejudice could be reduced between the two groups. These included fixing the water tank, fixing a broken-down truck and pooling resources together to watch a film.
