Abstract In this research, we tested equality-based respect from ingroup members as a social antecedent of positive assertiveness (i.e., voicing one’s opinions) and group performance. A pretest with employees at the workplace supported that the variables of interest were indeed correlated. The main experimental study then confirmed that participants who had received high as compared with low intragroup respect displayed more assertive behavior and yielded higher group performance in dyadic intragroup discussions. In contrast, high intergroup respect (i.e., from outgroup members) lowered assertiveness and performance levels in intergroup interactions relative to low respect. We discuss implications for social interactions and discourses.

表达自己的想法：作为自信行为的前因的群体内尊重

摘要 在这项研究中，我们测试了内群体成员基于平等的尊重作为积极自信（即表达自己的意见）和群体表现的社会前提。对工作场所员工的预测试支持感兴趣的变量确实是相关的。主要的实验研究随后证实，与低组内尊重相比，获得高组内尊重的参与者表现出更自信的行为，并在二元组内讨论中产生更高的小组表现。相比之下，高群际尊重（即来自外群成员）相对于低尊重降低了群际互动中的自信和表现水平。我们讨论对社会互动和话语的影响。
