This article seeks to understand the collective victimhood of the Hindus, a majority group in India, relative to the feelings of collective victimhood of the Muslim minority. It studies the role that is played by feelings of collective victimhood (CV) along with ingroup identity, fraternalistic relative deprivation (FRD), intergroup emotions and relative power in responding to intergroup conflict situations. The results showed that Hindus reported collective victimhood in greater amount compared to Muslims. Muslims felt more FRD than Hindus. Hindus also carried more negative emotions as a consequence of experiencing collective victimhood. The preferred reaction of Hindus in conflict situations was of revenge and less of reconciliation. Collective victimhood of Hindus was explained by ingroup identity and negative emotions associated with the experiences of collective victimhood and fraternalistic relative deprivation. The action of revenge of Hindus and Muslims was explained by different sets of factors. Identity and CV-related negative emotions were more important in explaining the revengeful reactions of Hindus, while in the case of Muslims relative power, FRD and FRD-related negative emotions were found more efficacious. Results are explained in the context of current Hindu–Muslim relations in India.

当优势者被害时：印度教徒在印度的案例

本文旨在了解印度占多数的印度教徒的集体受害，相对于穆斯林少数群体的集体受害感觉。它研究了集体受害者感（CV）以及群体内认同，兄弟情谊相对剥夺（FRD），群体间情感和相对权力在应对群体间冲突情况中所起的作用。结果表明，与穆斯林相比，印度教徒报告的集体受害人数更多。穆斯林比印度教徒感觉到更多的FRD。由于遭受集体受害者，印度教徒也带有更多负面情绪。在冲突局势中，印度教徒的首选反应是报仇，而不是和解。印度教徒的集体受害者是通过集体身份和与集体受害者和兄弟般的相对剥夺有关的负面情绪来解释的。印度教徒和穆斯林报仇的行动是由不同的因素来解释的。身份和与CV相关的负面情绪在解释印度教徒的报复反应时更为重要，而在穆斯林相对权力的情况下，发现FRD和与FRD相关的负面情绪更为有效。在印度目前的印度教与穆斯林关系的背景下对结果进行了解释。而在穆斯林相对权力的情况下，发现FRD和与FRD相关的负面情绪更为有效。在印度目前的印度教与穆斯林关系的背景下对结果进行了解释。而在穆斯林相对权力的情况下，发现FRD和与FRD相关的负面情绪更为有效。在印度目前的印度教与穆斯林关系的背景下对结果进行了解释。
