Flag‐displays can be used within national groups to communicate majority supremacy over ethnic minorities. In two studies set in an Australian context (N = 88 and N = 102), we explain how mode of national identification (glorifying identifiers versus attached identifiers) differently predicts support for multicultural values and national flag‐displays. In line with the hypotheses, we found that attached identifiers were more supportive of multicultural values and national flag‐displays by ethnic minorities than glorifying identifiers. In contrast, glorifying identifiers supported flag‐displays by the majority more than did the attached identifiers. Study 2 demonstrates that glorifying identifiers’ use of the national flag is explicitly meant to exclude other groups. As expected, support for multicultural values and endorsement of the flag as an exclusion tool helped to explain the relationship between identification and flag‐displays. As such, results revealed the attitudes behind a novel form of prejudice that is currently on the rise.

变革时期对国旗显示的支持：国家识别的问题吗？

国旗显示可以在民族团体中使用，以传达对少数民族的至高无上的地位。在澳大利亚背景下进行的两项研究（N = 88和N= 102），我们说明了国家识别的方式（光荣的标识符与附加的标识符）如何不同地预测对多元文化价值和国旗展示的支持。与假说相符，我们发现附加的标识符比赞美标识符更支持少数民族的多元文化价值观和国旗展示。相比之下，美化标识符比附加标识符更支持标志显示。研究2表明，夸大标识符对国旗的使用明确地意味着要排除其他群体。不出所料，对多元文化价值观的支持和对国旗的认可是一种排他性工具，有助于解释身份和国旗展示之间的关系。因此，
