Abstract

[One of the core concepts in Bar-Tal’s paradigm of understanding intractable conflicts is that of collective narratives of the groups involved (Bar-Tal, Living with the conflict: Socio-psychological analysis of the Israeli-Jewish society. Jerusalem: Carmel (in Hebrew), 2007). This chapter presents a longitudinal study to understand changes in the perceptions of collective narratives for the “in” group and the “out” group during different sociopolitical periods. We examined the changes in the emotional and cognitive reactions towards the collective narratives of the in-group and the out-group among both Jewish and Arab adolescents who are Israeli citizens. Data were collected in four stages (1999–2000, 2002, 2004, and 2009) among different samples which ranged from 545 participants to 1188 in the Jewish samples and from 365 participants to 575 in the Israeli Arab samples. We used the measure designed by Sagy et al. (Am J Orthopsychiatry 72(1):26–38, 2002) that assesses legitimacy, empathy, and anger evoked by two different narratives presented for a historical event, one attributed to the in-group and the other to the out-group.]
