摘要
Two studies examine the impact of individual differences in group identity on psychological empowerment and well-being among members of the ethnic minority and majority. Study 1 revealed an interaction between ethnicity and group identity in predicting empowerment and well-being. Moreover, the results revealed that psychological empowerment partially mediated the relationship between group identity and well-being among ethnic minorities. Using a mini-longitudinal design, the results of Study 2 revealed interactions between ethnicity and group identity at Time 1 predicting psychological empowerment, well-being, and positive affect at Time 2. In addition, the results confirmed psychological empowerment at Time 2 as a mediator of the relationship between group identity at Time 1 and well-being at Time 2.
