Question
Differentiate between ingroup and outgroup.
Solution
Ingroup is defined as a group of people who share similar values, beliefs, interests, and experiences that set them apart from others. They are referred to as "us" or "we" and are frequently associated with good qualities such as trust, familiarity, and security.
An outgroup is a social group with which an individual does not associate. Members of this community are sometimes referred to as "them" or "others" and are viewed negatively. Such a feeling of otherness can lead to prejudice, discrimination, and conflict between the two groups.
