In this paper, I elaborate on the work done in a previous paper that described a psychological model that allows for a better understanding of the intra-psychic experiences of victims of acts of prejudice. The model, centered around the notion of a psychological boundary, or “skin of the self”, provides a possible developmental trajectory for the formation of two separate but parallel functions of the skin of the self and describes the framework within which these functions determine the impact of prejudicial injuries. In the present work I extend these ideas to address large-group dynamics and integrate them with the pioneering ideas elaborated by Vamik Volkan in this area, while developing a few new concepts that I believe increase the utility of large-group dynamics in understanding the experiences of victims of Islamophobia, as well as shed some light on what might motivate perpetrators of it within the contemporary geopolitical environment, particularly in the United States.

伊斯兰恐惧症：偏见、自我和大群体动态的心理皮肤

在这篇论文中，我详细阐述了之前一篇论文中所做的工作，该论文描述了一种心理模型，可以更好地理解偏见行为受害者的内心体验。该模型以心理边界或“自我皮肤”的概念为中心，为自我皮肤的两个独立但平行的功能的形成提供了可能的发展轨迹，并描述了这些功能在其中确定的框架伤害的影响。在目前的工作中，我将这些想法扩展到解决大群体动力学问题，并将它们与 Vamik Volkan 在该领域阐述的开创性思想相结合，同时开发了一些我认为可以增加大群体动力学在理解体验中的效用的新概念伊斯兰恐惧症的受害者，
