Sažetak
Minority schooling in minority language may be perceived by majority as identity threat. In the context of minority schooling in Croatia we wanted to explore a) the mediating effect of symbolic threat and intergroup anxiety on the relationship between ingroup identification (ethnic identity and ethno-nationalism) and outgroup discrimination and prosocial intergroup behaviour, b) if the group status (majority vs minority moderates this relationship. Participants were 1467 majority and minority students of elementary and secondary schools. The results confirmed that intergroup threat mediates the relationship between both forms of ethnic identification and out-group orientation, but in different ways: for both measures of intergroup orientations, we found both direct effect of ethno-nationalism and indirect effect via perceived threat (both symbolic threat and intergroup anxiety). However, for the relationship between ethnic identity and out-group orientations only indirect effect of intergroup anxiety was found. Group status was not a moderator of these effects.
