- DV
- Intergroup behaviour was measured by observing the
boys behaviour and friendship patterns and tape
recording their conversations

- AIM
- PROCEDURE
- The boys arrived on separate buses and
settled into their cabins on two sites.
- INGROUP FORMATION
- Each group had tasks to accomplish (eg
a treasure hunt with a $10 prize).
- During this time the boys gave their groups names and discovered the existence
of the other group; they immediately requested a baseball game against the
other group.

- Rattlers and Eagles
- Each group had tasks to accomplish (eg

- FRICTION PHASE
- Tournament between two groups,
such as tug of war, for prizes such as
trophy

- RESULT
- Sherif found that the boys required little
encouragement to be competitive.
- As soon as they found out about another group in the park, they resorted
to “us-and-them” language

- FRICTION PHASE
- Name calling started immediately
- The Eagles burned the Rattlers’ flag and the Rattlers
retaliated by doing the same.
- When the Eagles won the tournament, the Rattlers stole their prizes
- Name calling started immediately
- INTEGRATION PHASE
- Initially there was food fights
- However, each shared task led to reduced hostility. By the
end, the Rattlers shared $5 they had won to buy soft drinks
for everyone.

- CONCLUSION
- Sherif regards the study as proving his hypotheses about
intergroup behaviour
- Although intergroup conflict is inevitable when competition is
present, it can be reduced.

- EVALUATION
- GENERALISABILITY
- Only boys were used, so the results
may not generalise the girls or mixed
sex groups.
- The boys were supposed to be “all American” types:
white, bright and sporty. This isn't representative of
the american population
- Only boys were used, so the results
may not generalise the girls or mixed
sex groups.
- RELIABILITY
- The observers were only with the boys for 12 hours a day and
could not see or overhear everything that went on. Which
decreases reliability

- APPLICATION
- The study shows how competition and frustration creates hostility
towards outgroups. In society, this suggests that discrimination and
violence could be reduced if jobs, housing, education and other
opportunities were shared more fairly between different groups

- VALIDITY
- The study has ecological validity, because these were real
boys at a real summer camp, doing real activities.

- ETHICS
- The boys did not give valid consent to be in this study and do
not seem to have been debriefed afterwards – they never
realised they were being experimented on.
