Abstract
⺠Group membership may restore a sense of control when personal control is threatened. ⺠Thus, threat to personal control should increase group-based cognition and action. ⺠Five experiments showed this basic effect. ⺠The effect was independent of uncertainty. ⺠High ingroup identification and threat to collective control pronounced the effect.
