In a survey study of Arab and Jewish Americans, we examined which beliefs best predicted support for a two‐state solution. We compared the role of a sense of collective victimhood, dehumanization of the outgroup, a zero‐sum view, and a monolithic narrative on the conflict. In both the Arab American and the Jewish American samples, framing the conflict in terms of a monolithic narrative played the strongest role in predicting rejection of a two‐state solution. On the other hand, when Jewish Americans agreed with the Palestinian narrative, that depicts the Palestinians as indigenous to the land but as dispossessed, they were more likely to support a two‐state solution. Similarly, when Arab Americans agreed with the Israeli narrative, in which Israelis want to live in peace but need to defend themselves, they were more likely to support a two‐state solution. In a second study, we examined if group values and concerns such as commitment to tikkun olam (commitment for justice for other minority groups) and concern with anti‐Semitism mediated between identification as Jewish and acceptance of the Palestinian narrative on the conflict. We found that concern with anti‐Semitism mediated between Jewish identity and rejection of the Palestinian narrative. On the other hand, grounding Jewish identity in values of tikkun olam mediated between Jewish identity and agreement with the Palestinian narrative. This research makes applied contributions by illuminating the key belief associated with support for peace among Arab and Jewish Americans. It also contributes to psychological theory on intergroup reconciliation by operationalizing and measuring the role of acknowledgement of the narrative of the other, group threat, and inclusive victimhood consciousness, in promoting peace.

桥接叙事：犹太裔美国人和阿拉伯裔美国人支持以色列与巴勒斯坦冲突的两国解决方案的前兆

在对阿拉伯和犹太裔美国人的调查研究中，我们检查了哪些信念最能预测两国解决方案的支持。我们比较了集体受害感，外来群体的非人性化，零和观点以及对冲突的整体叙述的作用。在阿拉伯裔美国人和犹太裔美国人样本中，以整体叙事来描述冲突对于预测两国解决方案的拒绝发挥了最重要的作用。另一方面，当犹太裔美国人同意巴勒斯坦的叙述时，该叙述将巴勒斯坦人描述为该国的土著居民，但被剥夺了财产，他们更有可能支持两国解决方案。同样，当阿拉伯裔美国人同意以色列的叙述，即以色列人希望和平生活但需要捍卫自己时，他们更有可能支持两国解决方案。在第二项研究中，我们研究了群体价值观和关注点，例如对tikkun olam的承诺（对其他少数群体的正义承诺）以及对反犹太主义的关注，这些关注是在被识别为犹太人与接受巴勒斯坦关于冲突的叙述之间进行的。我们发现，犹太人认同与拒绝巴勒斯坦叙述之间存在着对反犹太主义的担忧。另一方面，在tikkun olam价值观的基础上，将犹太人的身份作为基础，在犹太人的身份和与巴勒斯坦叙事的一致之间进行调解。这项研究通过阐明与支持阿拉伯和犹太美国人之间的和平有关的主要信念，做出了实用的贡献。
